Currently lightly watering with Poland Spring Water PH'd to 6.8 daily/every other day, will switch to distilled and add nutrients once the plants are larger.
Started hitting them with nutrients this week and they exploded. Third plant on the right is showing signs of nitrogen deficiency maybe? 5+ inches of growth in 7 days.
1ml of FloraMicro, FloraGro and FloraBloom, and CalMg per 1 US Gallon of Poland Spring water pH 6.4.
Plants gained about 3” over the week.
Plant on the right is recovering from what I think was a nitrogen deficiency (I hope at least)
Nothing has changed in terms of nutrients/feeding.
Thanks for stopping by!

Plants grew a lot this week. Tallest one is around 18.5” and bud sites are clearly starting to form. Moved up FloraBloom from 0.25ml/l to 0.5ml/l, reduced FloraMicro from 0.25ml/l to 0.15ml/l.
Two plants on the left are beginning to show signs of something, P deficiency?
Started using more CalMag and the plants recovered for the most part and started flowering heavy compared to my last update. Right plant is still taller than the others measuring in at about 37" while the other two are at around 30~31". Thanks for your guys advice on my questions.
Leaves on the colas starting turning purple, a lot of pistils started turning brown this past week and the trichome production ramped up -- so I'll hopefully be harvesting them within the next few weeks. Minimal vertical growth on all 3 plants this week. No change in nutrients but I moved up the watering to about 0.75/1l per plant per 24 hours. Right plant is still suffering from what I think is sunburn because of its height/proximity to the lamp. Unfortunately my tent isn't that big so I will just have to deal with it. Any and all advice is appreciated. TIA, and happy growing!
Bumped up the amount of CalMag and FloraBloom this past week trying to save the plant on the right. Unfortunately nothing seems to help it. The other two are going very strong. Very smelly even with carbon filter, much more than my first grow. Looking to maybe harvest the two on the left sometime late next week hopefully. About 60/70% of the pistils have turned orange on those two with only about 30% on the right plant.
