03-25 18:00 Recalibrated pH meter with 3-point calibration, suspect it was measuring HIGHER. Confirmed against liquid test kit. Flushed with 10-12 gal of pure RO water to lower runoff to 300 ppm (pH meter WAS reading 7.3, was 6.7 - 6.8 post calibration).

03-29 18:00 Water 2 gal 6.5 pH at week 10 levels + 5 ml CALMAG due to progressing calcium deficiency, test runoff at 6.4 pH and 1200, monitor run pure pH balanced water for next watering and maintain

04-30 18:00 Definitely some amber, but still mostly cloudy, and the LARF is definitely still pretty clear. 7-9 week strain going into week 11 now and still feels immature... Will give it to this weekend and see if I want to chop despite LARF not being ready. Switched to water only too early, should have waited until there was a lot more cloudiness than there was. Next grow is going to be all organic without flushing, so hopefully I can just avoid that altogether.
05-01 - Week 20
05-01 18:00 Water 2 gal 6.5 pH at + 3ml CALMAG. Trichomes cloudy with some starting to amber. Input at 300 PPM, runoff at 500 PPM

05-04 18:00 Water 1 gal 6.5 pH at + 3ml CALMAG. Trichomes cloudier overall this week, so giving it a few days
05-05 18:00 Left alone
05-06 18:00 Left alone
05-07 18:00 Dark period begin from 6AM
05-09 18:00 Chop and hang after 60 hours darkness
05-34 18:00 Trim results:
120g flower
61g trim
Final humidity 52% even though it was slow dried at 60%, had to use lettuce to bring it back up a little in the container.
Thanks! First grow so trying to figure everything out as I go. Definitely learned:
1. I really shouldn't trust the soil to be properly pH balanced ahead of time... Gonna have to mix some dolomite in next time, and properly slurry test everything.
2. I really shouldn't mess with it so much. I think half the things I scrambled to "correct" were probably fine and I just freaked out (see: flushing in the early stages of the veg as I thought I had a nutrient issue and probably didn't).
3. Overwatering seedlings is easy to do even when you think you're being careful...
