Industrial Plant Auto CBD

Week 6 is upon us, ladies & germs! Last week was kinda rough: my plant was having some suspected pH issues due to the humic acid I applied strongly in Week 4, and there was some burning of fan leaves due to their proximity to the CFL bulbs. I didn't realize that humic acid could cause "sunburn" when applied to the leaves so I think that played a role too. Gonna be checking the pH of her feeds more closely going forward. 4 drops of lemon juice seems to work great to bring the pH of diluted urine down from a 7 or 8 to a 6. I also pruned her biggest fans so she can get closer to the lights without burning up. As for the downward leaf curl, I saw the exact same trait in another grower's IPCBD grow journal, so maybe it's just a genetic thing with this strain! On this week's agenda is some lollipopping of the lowest budsites & some more diluted urine + Tetramin for sustenance. Gotta get that final nitrogen & phosphorus boost in before starting the potassium. Her growth last week was tremendous! The buds have doubled in size in 7 days though she's not getting much taller yet. Despite the fugly burnt up leaves, the flowers are healthy & fat which is what really counts. I'm also seeing some faint frost forming around the pistils. Giggity. 😈 The skunky smell was noticed by one of my roommates upon entering my room...and this roommate has nearly lost her sense of smell entirely. Must keep other roommate OUT at all costs because the stench is starting to become a thing. We're past the halfway stretch now if I harvest on Week 10 or 11, which I plan to do.
