6/8 - Did have to defoliate. It was getting too bushy and reducing airflow/light. I thought it might help them stretch looking for light, but they just weren't. Took off all fan leaves branching from main stem.
6/10 - They have been on bloom nutrients for a few days now and all is well except for Solomatic. Both of them are clawing. The tallest Blueberry has the slightest clawing but hardly noticable. Guess the Solomatics are a nitrogen sensitive strain. Will reduce next reservoir change. The larger of the Purplematic has a lower branch that has shot up past the top now. All is looking bushy and starting to show flowering branching. Still only a few pistils. Largest Blueberry is 11 inches. Smallest plant is also a Blueberry at 5.5 inches.
- They are drinking about 1gallon a week
-1300ppm PH 5.9 sitting steady since res change. no adjustments needed
-turned up par at canopy from 380 to 580. If all is ok will bump it up as flowers start to develop. Just few white hairs on all plants at the moment.
Supplemental Light- Turned off UVA. Keeping IR on. Took out Blue spectrum HIGROW light. Keeping 2 Reds in but turned off at the moment. Will turn on uv/red boost later in flowering
6/12 - They are stretching now. The leggy blueberry grew almost 3 inches in 2 days. The smallest grew almost an inch. Everything is stretching which is good because when tucking a few leaves on the Critical I found condensation on a leaf that had another laying on top of it. Lowered the Humidifier's settings to 40% down from 50%. It sits about 5 higher around the tent of what it is set at in a small clustered 2x4 sog grow.
- lifted spider farmer G4500 light up 2 inches on the right side. about an inch on the left. Turned it up a little to 60% power. 600 par at canopy. That is using photone free app. Doesn't include the uv/ir spectrum because they are outside par.
-Slight smell to the tent now. Mostly coming from the Critical and Solomatic. The others don't smell yet.
