Shijo_Kingo Two bigger clones instead of 9 smaller ones.
Having bigger plants in the G-tools cabinet is challenging because of the limited height.
Thrips are still around, unfortunately.
They're quite light green therefore I increased Terra Vega to around twice as much as Canna advises.

Shijo_Kingo Increased Terra Vega to 20 ml/l since they still seem to lack nutrients.
They're getting greener right in time before flowering sets in definitively.
Bent a few more branches to keep them low and wide.

Shijo_Kingo Maintained nutrient levels, bent a few more branches.
Removed some leaves on the sides to improve light penetration and air flow.
Will switch to flowering fertiliser within a few days.

Shijo_Kingo I finally bought a pH/EC meter!
Switched to bloom fertiliser.
pH 6.2, EC 2.4/2.5
Leaves are curling inwards. It can't be heat stress. Could it be a sign of over fertilisation?
Shijo_Kingo No significant changes.
With the help of my brand new pH/EC meter I'm giving twice as much Terra Flores compared to my previous grow.
pH 6.2 and EC 2.5
Let's see if it makes a difference in yield...

Shijo_Kingo Older leaves are yellowing. These older clones compared to the ones in my last diary from the same mother, seem to mature faster.
They receive double strength bloom fertilizer, i.e. 10 ml/l compared to the 9 smaller ones in my last diary.
They received PK 13/14 twice this week.
pH: 6.2
EC: 3.0
Dryer environmental air due to the changing, winter season.
Shijo_Kingo Soil pH on day 42: 5.2
Soil EC on day 42: 2.9
Almost there, will harvest within the next few days.
Flushed passively; watered twice without any fertilizer.
They ripened some 10 days before the previous batch which was made up of smaller/younger clones.
Let's see what they bring on the scales.... :-D
Very potent with a complex aroma that is not exactly my taste; too fruity and sweet. And I'll say it again: the advertised possible yield of 700 g/m2 is highly exaggerated. At least with the mother that I used for this grow.
I would love to see a diary where it is credibly shown that these yields indeed are possible.

Shijo_Kingo An easy to grow, compact plant that delivers a good yield of buds with a nice and complex terpene profile.
Your nutrient correction last week made a significant difference in color. It seems that you managed to dial in the nutrients without overdoing it👍
Carry on with your excellent work! 👊😊 --🍀
@Still_Smoq
Thanks I just do not understand why I need to give so much fertilizer.
When you look at the nutrient schedule that comes with Canna's products, the plants should thrive at much lower levels. But I know from experience that they don't. With their BioCanna products I used to give 10 (!) times as much to get and keep them equeally green.
I didn't measure anything. Now, that I've tested the water with double the amount of bloom fertilizer it shows that the pH is fine but the EC is at the highest Canna recommends.
The inward curling happened after I switched to bloom fertilizer. That's why I could suspect over fertilization :-). Let's see what happens the coming weeks!
@Shijo_Kingo, I think many of the fertilizers are way off in their ratios as well as their strenghts.
The macro nutrients, micro and trace elements are close to impossible to dial in; in your conquest for the perfect grow, unless you DIY (if you are picky and want pristine/perfect grow, not just what you think looks OK(DIY!)).
I find, finding a pre-mixed brand that works --is as hard as trying to find a pair of pants that fits on every person on earth! You will end up with a bulky pair of pants that doesn't feel -or look right on anyone.
Not to mention the steep co$t/pric€ 😱 compared to DIY 😍👌.
As you are into re-vegging/cloning you have a golden opportunity to get 100% dialled in with your particular plant over time.
DIY-mix, cultivate, take notes, clone and repeat, now using the fresh data from the previous grows --until you are happy with the result.
Buying salts in bulk, atleast for me cost roughly the same as liquid ferts pre-mixed, but with the bulk I normally end up with 5-10kg extra calcium nitrate etc for the next 100+++ grows 😁.
As a former exotic fish enthusiast, I quickly realized the potential for using DIY aquarium nutrients when growing marijuana. The strength in a planted aquarium compared to growing weed in hydroponics is not the same, but you can use the same nutrients, just adjust the ratio/strength to your plants current needs.

If you are too lazy, making your own spreadsheet; converting atomic mass units into working data in your quest to calculate the perfect nutrients ; you intend to mix to get a good ratio/ppm:
https://eketjall.se/akvariekalkylatorn/
https://rotalabutterfly.com/nutrient-calculator.php
is another decent page to get your DIY project started, and will do the math for you (works for most of the added components you intend yo use in your DIY project).
Good luck! 👊🤓👌
