My weeks start on Tuesday and end on Mondays, so here is the latest update. I update my journal every day, so it is always work in progress. The self feeding reservoirs continue to impress. However, I believe a 10 gallon flush is warranted by week 2 of flower due to salt buildup at the roots. An additional flush might make sense on long running strains like my one Zkitzz#2 which appears to have weeks to go. Note, this diary doesn’t let me specify the use of General Hydroponics Flora Series, but that is the nutrient line I am using, along with their Liquid Koolbloom and Diamond Nectar. I like their products. I’m not paid or reimbursed in any way. Plants are drinking less now in late flower. Im increasing my liquid koolbloom (0-10-10) for more P and K nutrients. I’m also using less Flora Micro, More FloraBloom and no FloraGro at all as I top the reservoirs. Tuesday: Checked trichomes….plenty of cloudy, a few clear and a few amber. I’m close, but waiting another week or two. One plant is maturing VERY slowly and growing very tall….its likely expressing its Sativa genetics and will take a lot longer to mature. She’s at 56” tall after only 4 weeks of veg. Tallest plant that ive ever grown. I’m concerned by the fact that I am seeing the start of nutrient burn on her leaves…..is it worth all of the work to move her into a bathtub for a flush? The other two plants will finish in the next two weeks, so I will likely start to fade nutrients. I decided to flush her with 10 gallons of water with Florakleen added. This is her second flush, with the last flush 5 weeks ago. Runoff ppm from the initial runoff was 4,150ppm!! After ten gallons, runoff was 950ppm. So a lot of salt was flushed away from her roots. Hoping this prevents any additional nutrient burn and buys me more time while this slow grower matures. In the process of removing this 56” tall plant, I discovered that she’s burning her top colas on the LEDs. So, while I don’t want to do it, I was forced to supercrop her two tallest colas in week 7 of flower. Not ideal…. I also raised the light by 2 inches and dimmed slightly to achieve a Daily Light Integral of 50 max. Wednesday: added nutrients to reservoir, but no Flora Series nutes this time. Just CalMag and Liquid Koolbloom and Terpinator. Ph to 5.9. Starting to fade nutrients as we near the finish line for two plants. Also added a plant yo-yo to support the newly Supercropped branches. Thursday: all looks good today. Much better now that they’re not touching the lights. Friday. Topped off reservoirs….very little nutrient water needed. Seeing some foxtailing on LA Peyote Kush…not due to heat and not that close to the LED, so it could be genetic. Saturday: ignored the plants completely. Not drinking much, no need to fill the reservoir today Sunday: LA Peyote Kush almost ready to harvest. Monday: Last day of the week. Topped off reservoirs with 1150ppm nutrient solution at 5.7ph. Not ready to fully starve them yet. Waiting 1-2 more weeks for amber. Checked trichomes and not ready yet.

Welcome and happy growing! Your germination station looks awesome! Great setup you got there!🍀🌱

@@Hankster, Yeah i understand the issue. I tried a few things for increasing humidity. Ranging from wet cloth to a humidifier. In the end i think a humidifier is a great investment for having a controlled range of humidity. All others methods were either spiking or just missed the desired humidityrange.🤔 I ,on my side, always struggle with temperatures because my lights heat up my tent quite a lot. But i think thats a big part of the journey: to find out how you can manipulate your environment to get the desired marks. 🌱🍀

@Herbie101, thank you! I’d like to figure out a way to increase my humidity more….but I’m not in a tent (this is in a closet). Your germination setup is even better IMO….you are giving me some new ideas. Thanks again.

Nice diary. How was it?

@@Hankster, nice. I just chopped a few of mine. I've used the same AC infinity pots and still use them on some of my plants. Just be sure to check the reservoir as mineral/salt build up can occur and without checking and scrubbing/cleaning it you wouldn't really notice until the plants show you lol. Other than that I do like them. Also, you can use the wick rope and put the wick around a stalk and the other side into a water source and it will work it that way as well for those who don't have autopots.

@Dabking, thank you. The LA Peyote Kush was nice harvest and a decent smoke. Looking forward to trying these Zkitzz soon. Maybe 2-3 weeks away from harvest.
