ETHOS Clones (Diary #8)

Flowering Week 3 (Sept 5-11) ---------------------------------------------- __________ Sept 5 (8L) Mix: 15ml CaMg, 15ml PK Spike : 12L water = 1.4 EC (+4L) "KC2 In: 1.0 EC/5.7 pH Out: 1.7 EC/5.6 pH (22c) (+0.7 EC) "GS In: 1.0 EC/5.7 pH Out: 1.9 EC/5.6 pH (22c) (+0.9 EC) Good amount of stretch coming out of the ELB. I had to tie some of the branches down a bit and she's really filled in the back corner. Swapped a few others around to give as much room in between as I could. It's already a jungle in there though. Everything has been flushed and we're sitting between 1.7-1.9 EC. Next watering will be tomorrow for the 3 gallons and Thursday for the 5 gallons (all bloom nutes at 2.2 EC). I cleaned up all the bottoms yesterday...not sure why I didn't do that BEFORE bloom. Didn't show any signs of stress today, hope it's ok. _________________________ Sept 6 PM (2-4L @ 21c)🌡️ Mix: 15ml CaMg, 15ml PK Spike : 14L water = 1.0 EC • 3 gallon bags were bone dry • ELB was bone dry and drooping 🌡️: 83.5F ✅ ❄️: 71.1F ✅ 🌧️: 68.1% ⬇️ ☁️: 58.8% ✅ 📈: 1.18 ✅ 📉: 1.04 ✅ 📊: 1.0 ✅ It takes 36-48 hours for the 5 gallon bags to go from completely saturated to fully dry. The 3 gallon bags are basically dry after 24 hours. Depending on the amount of water, they can be ready for another fertigation before lights off. I was going to stop LST after week 2 but these things are flopping all over each other. I just lightly tied each branch up to the cage and that somewhat lowered their footprints. Leaves are barely touching one another or the walls (for now). ___________________________ Sept 7 PM 🌡️ (4-6L @ 20c) Mix: 18ml CaMg, 36ml FLR A, 36ml FLR B, 12ml B52, 15ml Compost tea : 14L water = 2.2 EC "KC1 In: 2.2 EC/5.8 pH Out: 2.5 EC/5.5 pH (23c) (+0.3 EC) ✅ "KC2 In: 2.2 EC/5.8 pH Out: 2.3 EC/5.5 pH (23c) (+0.1 EC) ✅ "GS In: 2.2 EC/5.8 pH Out: 2.4 EC/5.5 pH (22c) (+0.2 EC) ✅ "ELB In: 2.2 EC/5.8 pH Out: 2.3 EC/5.4 pH (23c) (+0.1 EC) ✅ *MC In: 2.2 EC/5.8 pH Out: 2.4 EC/5.5 pH (22c) (+0.2 EC) ✅ *CG In: 2.2 EC/5.8 pH Out: 2.5 EC/5.6 pH (22c) (+0.3 EC) ✅ First runoff with full bloom feed and we're laughing. The pots were all bone dry from the PK flush at the start of the week and were chomping at the bit for a big drink. ELB took 4L with no runoff 😳. Will continue at 2.2 EC with little to no runoff for the remainder of the week. My WiFi hygrometer is really pissing me off. It's supposed to log values every hour but it decides when it's going work. Sometimes it doesn't log for days in a row. Sometimes it logs every few hours. Making it hard for me to track my VPD. I should be able to reference the values I was getting in late veg and apply that. I was in mid-late bloom VPD range a few weeks ago so I shouldn't be too hard to get back to that. _________ Sept 8 🌡️: 79.7F ✅ ❄️: 75.4F✅ 🌧️: 60.9%✅ ☁️: 57.2%✅ 📈: 1.28 🆗 📉: 0.99 ✅ 📊: 1.18 ✅ No watering. Heat wave is over and we're getting into cooler nights, which is great because I need to start lowering temperatures soon. _____________________ Sept 9 (2-4L @ 20c) Mix: 20ml Silica, 30ml CaMg, 24ml Sensizym, 24ml B52 : 5 gal water = 1.1 EC • 5.7 pH • Runoff on GS/MC • ELB bone dry 🌡️: 80.4F ✅ ❄️: 72.3F ✅ 🌧️: 65.6% ✅ ☁️: 57.2% ✅ 📈: 1.15 ✅ 📉: 0.9 ✅ 📊: 1.08 ✅ ____________________ Sept 10 (2L @ 20c) Mix: 20ml CaMg, 54ml A, 54ml B, 15ml Compost tea * Bit of runoff out of the 3 gallons
