- Top watered 2/3 gal each, 6.4 pH, 850 PPM final, 2 ml/g CALMAG, 4 ml/g GH Grow, 4 ml/g GH Grow, 7 ml/g GH Bloom
- Plants all looking hungry for something. Some leaf tip burn though on plants 2 and 3, but also purple stems. Stepped up to a full feed cycle, and will skip feeding next week to let them adjust and see where I'm at
- Stepped down CALMAG as I am wondering if the dolomite lime I added to fix the soil is finally breaking down and I have a cal/mag abundance

- Top watered 2/3 gal each, 6.4 pH, 900 PPM final, 1 ml/g CALMAG, 1 Tbsp/gal epsom salt
- Noticed what looks like Calcium deficiency, but given how lime green the tops of these plants are, Im suspecting Sulfur deficiency since I'm not using (much) salt based fertilizers... Lowered the calmag dose and applied 1 Tbsp/gal epsom salts to see if it responds to a mag/sulfur infusion
- Defoliated to get some light to some lower bud sites
- Rotated plants, but left in same placement for now
- Otherwise proceeding nicely
@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.
