16set Mainline - First Ever Grow & Daily Progressives c_0

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio, or combination, of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates. These are/will be DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add-in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids) TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added-in larger, then smaller, ratios while the "Bloom Mix" concentrate will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely. The ppm and ratios will be listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. 98/28 Doing a morning check up today. So far most everything is on the same track as yesterday but now instead of burn holes from what I suspect to be light burn, I have some yellowing on the oldest leaves. I believe they are getting hit because they are the oldest and that's how my ph lockout worked, but they are on the top because of how I defoliated on flower day 18 when I took all fan leaves but these top 2-3 tier leaves. I decided to try turning the pot around 180degrees to see if any kind of light adjustments could help. Will monitor of course. PPFD is same as before 800 max and 600 minimum with nothing being adjusted but the plant orientation. Still using 1 hr of UVA at midday and 1 hr of IR at mainlight on/off schedule and 15/15 before and after. VPD is steady, 74-76F daytime, 66-68F after lights out, 55% or less RH, and auto set ILV. 99/29 Turning her seemed to help a little but still feel more comfortable with turning the lights down a little. So that's what i did, PPFD now 750 at max and left her turned to the same side. Still using 1 hr UVA per day and 1 hour of IR with 30/30 at main light schedule and 15/15 before and after main lights. VPD still automated with 73-76F during the day and 66-68F at night. 55% RH or less and auto ILV 100/30 Light Burn still showing slightly larger brown spots but not any new spots. So I will continue on the same light amounts and not change anything for another day/continue to monitor. Lights were on same schedule and ppfd of 750 max. I ran UVA and IR on the same schedules. VPD was again controlled at the same settings wtih 74-76F and 55%RH or lower and auto ILV. Plan to feed tomorrow 4 days since last feed on day 97. 101/31 Feed Day. Tested and calibrated ph pens. Had to make more Bloom Mix concentrate made by recipe and got 3890ppm over purified water starting ppm of 28. Prepared 2.5 gal of de-chlorinated tap (starting 262ppm) with 700ppm bloom mix concentrate (total 708ppm over de-chlorinated tap) watered until bottom drip began and let drain for 20 minutes. Got ~6.5 cups of runoff, was looking for 8 so I will be feeding 3 days from now. Runoff ph was 6.04 on two meters with 2070ppm, was looking for about 1500 so I will flush with plain water at next feed. Top-soil ph tested 3 times for an avg of avg 6.556 (6.67,6.48,6.52) I actually like this number and will use 7.0ph again on the next. Leaf controls were checked and plan to leave the lights where they are ppfd. Since there's no new leaves now I will just have to live with the damage and try not to go above 750ish with the two lights I am using. UVA and IR will stay the same as well. Same with VPD 74-76F and 55%RH or less with 4 fans oscillating directly at the colas. ILV on auto. 102/32 Noticed more nute burns on the tips of newer leaves that didnt have them before. So I think I may have introduced a bit more than normally gets through with the ph starting to come back into a growing range. Not a bad thing really since my ph is finally back, but there's a shock factor too, so I think that maybe what I am seeing in the burnt tips. Either way, the next feed wont be as strong. Light burn controls seem to have gotten more yellow like there's a deficiency getting transferred out from the older leaves. So next feed will still have nutes but not a full feed. I reduced the lights again to a max of 700 now. I did this because I added 10 more minutes to the daily UVA timer for midday. I am still using the 1hr of IR as previously used. No issues with VPD with temps and RH all controlled via auto fan settings. 103/33 Checked control leaves for light burn and nute burn progression. Neither seem to be getting worse but both look to be dominate on the oldest leaves. I cant think of any actions to take so Im leaving it all as it is for now. Lights were left at 700ppfd max and I ran the same 1 hr 10 minutes of UVA midday with 1 hr IR at main light on/off schedule (30/30 with 15/15 before and after main-lights. VPD still auto fan controlled and CO2 was checked again with a reading of 760 so no action is needed. 104/34 Happy Thanksgiving! Water Day. (last feed was on day 101/31) I prepared 2.75 gallons of purified water (starting ppm of 18) and added 390ppm of bloom mix concentrate. I then ph balanced it to 7.05-ish. I fed the whole amount even though I knew she would spit out anything over 1.5 gallons. The idea being that I want to break up some of the salts building up in the soil. With this amount I expected to get about 12 cups of runoff, and ended up with ~15 cups. The runoff ph tested at 5.9 of two meters (I rather this be higher) The run off ppm was 1940 and would rather this be about 1500 in a regular feed but since this is a flush feed this is where I want it to be. I hope it flushed out a lot of blocked pathways. The top soil ph tested 4 times with an avg 6.35ph (6.41,6.32,6.34,6.33). Only adjustments I see to the next feed will be to keep 7.05 to 7.1ph and maybe use less nutes than scheduled in the next feed. So instead of 700ppm maybe 650. Also plan to feed 2.5 gallons in 3 days so I expect about 8 to 11 cups of runoff at that time. I also checked the light burn controls and decided that I wont be running UVA everyday. But rather 3 times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays only now. At that time I will hit her with 1 hour and 10 minutes mid day. I still plan to continue to use 1 hr of IR with 30/30 at light's on/off and 15/15 before and after. VPD still regulated to 74-76F during hte day and 66-68F overnight. RH controlled to 55% or less with auto fan settings.
