- Bottom watered 1 gal each, 1.5 ml CALMAG, couple drops essential minerals, and 6.5 pH
- Plant 3 pulling ahead, 2 seems bushy but 1 seems to be lagging
- Still seeing gnats on traps, continue BTI from top at next watering

- Top watered .33 gal each, left over water from bottom watering to recapture any nutrient washout
- Added 4 Tbsp BTI to soak for a few hours in the water as a final attempt to get rid of any remaining gnat larva (week 3)
- Moved plant 3 to the center as its doing the best, and to give plant 1 a break from dual fans hitting it to see if its just getting wind burn
- Plants are growing ok (plant 3 genetics seems to have way more stretch, training going well), plant 1 is most stunted with leaf formation not being as even, could be gnat infestation, or just genetics. Plant 2 is somewhere in between, just more bushy than plant 3, but looks healthier than plant 1
- Go back to a heavy bottom water on Sunday

- Added diatomaceous earth, 4Tbsp to each plant, and broke up soil a bit on top as application has caused the top inch or so to solidify a bit
@cjfarmer, At level 9/14 inches from canopy I was hitting about 850 center and 650 or so at the center of the side plants. At 10/14 I am hitting closer to 1050/850 now in the last weeks of flower.
1 gallon per plant plant per 24hrs? Is that correct? That seems like a lot. ease back on watering until the bugs buzz off. Bare minimum. feed the plant not the bugs.
LOL, no, I'm watering 1 gallon / plant every 4 days or so. Probably less actually as I'm doing one heavy watering on Sundays, and a lighter watering mid-week. I just didn't want to do the math for the measurement per day. 😁
Corrected to be more accurate. at .33 gal a day.
