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!
