I'm learning that the medium feed weekly chart is very reasonable for my setup. I exceeded it this grow and burned the plants. They recovered quickly once I dropped back to the PPM range on the feed schedule.
I burned these plants and it was interesting to see how they dealt with and then recovered from the abuse. Despite overdoing the PPMs a bit the grow was a huge success overall. I don't know the dry weight while I'm writing this and I can already tell I'm going to be happy with the results. I'll update these notes with the dry weight once the dry out is completed.
20.5 oz dry, smells great - lemony and berry. I'm happy with the results. Nice, mellow high.
@Gejlord, Yes! You're absolutely right. I made the mistake of initially underfeeding them, and then over-corrected and overfed and burned them. Yield/growth has been substantially affected because of that. On the plus side I know what PPM I should be targeting and dialed it in on the other grow I have going right now.
Hell yes on flipping to flower. On my Apex R1s I've been feeding at 1700-1800 EC in coco and they still seem hungry. Seeing the first trichomes! Looking forward to how your grow turns out!
I have definitely noticed that Apex R1 seems to be lighter in general on its leaves. Keep an eye on pH as well, I had a pH problem early on that I ironed out but am still dealing with the consequences.
@ThaDollaGenerale, Thanks! After the dry and cure all of mine smell like pine trees. I love it and I'm very pleased with the overall result. I saw you chopped yours too - I'm eager to hear what the final product is like!
why would you consider even inspecting with a microscope when your plant has 100% white hairs...that means 100% clear trichomes ...lol your gentic states 63 days of flower,you are barely even half way there ... Considering you burnt the living hell out of them they will take more than 63 days of flower bud
