Well this week into transition, two of my dwc 'girls' wound up being dudes :/ chopped em down and placed my Sour Ripper back into the tent.
Also dedicated a closet space to move my plants into for flower since its been cold as all heck within my garage. I will be moving the flower girls in there within the next 3 days. Currently have some lil plants veg-ing in there under a 200w led until i feel up to it.
Also, i removed the nutrient values since they are inaccurate. As stated in past weeks, those were for the DWC plants. Since they were removed, no point in having them. From now on, they will be for Sour Ripper and A.K.(shoulda been doing that from the start!) Oh well, this is my first diary, bound to mess up somewhere down the line. Also, no nutrient values for them since i havent added ANY nutes to A.K. and S.R. their entire cycle, waiting til week 3-4 of flower to start feeding them with some FF Big Bloom at half the company's recommended application rate. If they respond well, I'll up it to that. Would rather let the plants speak to me than make the same mistake unwittingly.
A little footnote about the closet space; it is about 6'x3'x2' ft. No ventilation. Ive had successful harvests from it before. Difference for this grow is now im using LED rather than HPS. This will also mean my scrog will become obsolete within the tent as it ties to my tent. No big deal since ive topped em quite a bit. Probably gonna use the scrog to train some wide-and-lows in the tent during veg.
No more males please aha, had to kill like 5 within the past 2 months.

Grow Questions
RunWithItstarted grow question 6 years ago
Popped up around last week (week 4, monday). Prior to week 4, i had been watering with tap water, which in my area is pretty hard.(7.8+ pH) Been correcting pH to 6.8 with each watering since. (2 waterings since then.) Should i just continue feeding 6.8 pH water or add cal-mag?
Solved
Leaves. Color - Black or grey

Hi @RunWithIt! This is Calcium-related (not Mag). This deficiency is known to appear when the pH-range is wrong. Soil has the ability to buffer your pH and roots in soil will always find a way to handle nutrient intakes (unless intake pH is really out of the range). But the coco medium doesn't have this ability and needs the solution's pH to be buffered upstream. You must apply the ideal pH range for coco, which is 5.5~5.9. Never exceed 6.0, otherwise you will encounter deficiencies and rootzone issues. Now, as mention by others, "hard water" defines a water that already contains a few nutrients (so it has its own basis EC), we're not talking about pH here, everybody needs to pH-down its tap water, but some will have a 0.1 basis EC while others can have a 0.6 EC without adding anything --> this is "hard water". If your tap water's EC > 0.3 then you probably don't need to add Cal-Mag (we suppose this high basis EC is because of different minerals, including Cal&Mag, but the only way to truly ensure this would be to see a laboratory test for your tap water). If your tap water's EC < 0.3, go for it and add a slight doses of Cal-Mag each time you water. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Hey you're getting a cal mag deficiency caused by lock out due to PH fluctuations, you're also likely to get other symptoms in the future if PH keeps changing. As you're using PH perfect nutrients, you shouldn't really have to toy with them that much. On the other hand you want your PH to be between 6 and 6.5 in soil - that should help the plants recover. You're actually doing pretty good, so just get on top of that and you'll be fine. If you can i would definitely go big on Cal Mag (especially for the Mag part during stretch) anyway there s never too much of the stuff going around. If you're in coco, you want to be adding a lot more than cal mag, try silicon and other supplements such as Mag-sulfur.... and finally... the secret no one will tell you : you need to add a chelation agent... try fluvic and hummic acid. In combination these will make your plants blow up if they have the root space to grow. good luck, hope this helps , dassit 🚀
