At the beginning of this week I stopped regular feeding, and added wormcastings to each pot and watered with ~ 6 pH water for some days. I used lemon juice as pH down.
Also popped some seeds :)
Heavy strech going on during first week of flower.

Until now it has been a smooth ride, and I'm really happy with how the plants are developing without signs of stress. Lets hope we can keep this up for another month :)
Week 5 of flower
Week Log:
This week I noticed some yellow appearing on the ICK. Runoff pH was ~ 6.75, which probably caused some of the yellow tone to appear. To counter this I dropped pH quite drastically thru out the week and top-dressed with worm castings, which seems to help as the leaves are greener again.
The Hindu Kush plants are really strong .. you can see the leaves standing up like solar panels at lights on :) rubbing the stem gives a strong limonene terp.

Using lemon juice as pH down.
Week log:
The yellowing from last week became less after drastically dropping pH a few times.
We are on full recommended nutrient schema and all the plants are loving it for what I see. The ICK(?) probably could even take more but I dont want to overpush things.
Temp (and me :) is on the high side, but I cannot control that much more
3 more weeks till week 10 and harvest

Week log:
- Outside temperature dropped from 30c to 17c with 80%H in a matter of days.. Ladies are getting along but my dehum cannot keep up.
- HK colas just keep swelling, and smell super intense. We reached the official 50 days of flower for this strain but will be moving along, as they are def not ready.
- ICK is just coated with trichomes and feels so heavy as well, the lower buds got more light after a defoil last week and all branches are becoming top-heavy now.
Previous grow I was stressed out by this point time, and didn't like the experience much. Now I'm actually zen and enjoy each day that I'm seeing how the plants are doing well, and like to push things another two weeks or more if needed.
Next update in week 9 of flower.
Week 9 of flower

07/15/24 Just noticed my dimmer was set to 40% for the entire flower period. Im an idiot hahaha.
From now on I will water each other day with minimal additives until trichomes tell they are ready.
