You cut a bit too low in my taste. Cutting below the next node, leaving a little stem, helps the trunk to avoid splitting as it grows. But don't worry, it should be okay (don't train it too hard). ^^

It looks correct to me according to what they say mainlining is. For more tips check out the RQS blog on how to mainline it will surely be helpful. I'll send you the link ....

When growing in (mainly) soil, I have beem doing a plain water/plain water/medium strength feed/plain water/plain water/medium strength feed routine for 30+ years and it works for me. By "medium strength feed", I only ever do half to three quarters strength of what the manufacturers recommend. It is very easy to rescue a slightly underfed plant, but very, very hard to rescue an overfed, burnt and damaged plant!

Die hellen flecken sind Wasserflecken. Das Blatt hatte an der Stelle einen kleinen Wassertropfen und durch das Licht erhält er dort eine kleine "Verbrennung". Schau meine Gorilla Cookies an. Die hat in früheren Tagen, ne Menge von diesen Flecken weil bei mir die Blätter geschwitzt haben. Die Löcher kommen wahrscheinlich von Schädlingen

I wouldn't worry about red striping on the stem. It's when the whole stem turns violet, thats when you gotta start thinking about P booster. If i had a dollar for every red striped weed plant i've had i'd be richer than i am. I think your plants look beautiful and healthy. Not even any tip burn wtf lol. Carry on son your doing well!

I'd say your soil is toxic or your pH is out of wack, probably both. You got all kinds of shit goin sideways there. Best remedy would be to give your soil a good flush with 6.2 pH room temperature tap water. Allow soil to dry out. Then resume your feeding.

I think your SCROG looks good, and if this is your first time congrats on what you have achieved. The term mainlining refers to two main points coming out of the stalk at the rootbase, right now your plants has 4, so its not be definition mainlining but it is topped and groomed in such a way to be something like it. I did this on my Blue Cindy plant and it worked out really well. Keep up the good work.

1st things 1st. Organic nutrients react differently in a soil set up. My alga grow is 4.5 when putting in. My Bioenhancer from Green House Feeding puts the ph ai 9.5 My point is. Unless you're adding synthetic nutrients, (which you should try avoid, as the organic process doesn't follow PH rules. With most organic nutrients with soil. ph does not need adjusting. Good

BioThrive Grow, Bloom and Calmag, no Micro nutrient? I'm unfamiliar with any Bio products other than i see more people with fucked up plants that use Biobizz nutrients than anything else. Where's your soil pH at? Do you know? Do you pH correct your water and nutrient solutions before you water in? Everyone that uses bottle nutrients are giving their plants plenty of food. The deficiencies begin in 2 ways generally, 1, pH is out of range, and 2, Nutrient toxicity due to salt built up around the roots which begins to lock out minerals. Of course there are other factors that can cause problems, like high VPD, but generally those 2 are the ones most responsible for deficiencies. Make sure your soil pH is between 6.0 and 6.4. i always recommend 6.2. Thats the pH i always strive for if i'm not using bacteria. If i use bacteria i pH to 6.3
