6/4 - Beginning of week 3
(Turned off HIGROW red/blue lights for photos to make it easier on the eyes 😎) Switched them so now running 2 red/1 blue rather than the other way around. Switched to 20hr light on schedule to keep temps cooler and give a window to do foliar spray if needed. Held off on doing one and glad I did. Plants looking slightly darker green and the slight mag? deficiency starting to show has subsided as far as I can tell.
Still trying to just leave them alone as much as I can to see what their base genetics are like. No LST or defoliation so far. Leaving any deficient old base fan leaves on the plants for now.
-All CBD Blueberry showing first pistils. The one I was unsure of is also showing pistils so I'm assuming it is also Blueberry. One is stretching a lot. Getting same treatment as the others. It is just double the height. Just starting to bush a little. 7.5 inches. The other 3 are all 4-4.5 in. Stem is way too strong to LST without breaking it. Silica doing its thing 😁
-Solomatic both showing pistils. Getting quite bushy. 5.5 inches
-Purplematics are my favorite so far. No pistils yet on either. Very busy plants. Some height to them too. Almost the size of the stretchy Blueberry. Larger Purplematic is 7in., the other is 5.5
-Critical CBD is very flat and very wide. 14 inch wing span. Only 4 inches tall. Looks like it was sat on. 😆
With some plants showing signs of pre-flower but others not, I will hold off on res change. Was planning every 2 weeks, but the transitional phase change will happen when I feel it's needed. Might wait a few days and change 2 of them. Swap the plants around so the higher bloom feed is available for the ones starting to show hairs. PH has risen in all 10gallon totes to 6.4. Has sat steady there for a few days now. I am not too worried as it is only the Critical showing signs of deficiency and only in the older fan leaves. One of the Solomatic also showing minor deficiency on first set of fan leaves. Old enough where I'm not converned. New growth looks good on all plants.
