Pure Ak - flowering update day 20
These girls have been defoilated twice heavily yet they still continue to regrow fan leaves at a very fast rate. Will have lightly defoilaite to keep the buds in the light again over the next few days.
Absolutley loving the sweet fresh aroma they are now giving off. I have raised the 2 hlgs and added a spare marshydro 300 to make sure all the plants are getting total coverage. Each plant is getting roughly 60,000 lux at thia height.
With the 3 leds temps in the day are 24-25 degrees and in the night 22 degrees.
They are on 950ppm until I clean the res in the next few days. After that rasing the blom nutes too 1100. PH is totally stable and has not moved from 5.8 for the last week. All I have done is stir the res and that's it.
Day 22
The res was almost done this morning so I cleaned and refilled.
Soley using Ionic Hydro bloom and went with 1200ppm. This took my ph down to 5.3 so for the first time I had to ph the res back up to 5.8
Also lowered the lights to increase lux to 65,000 - 75,000 across the board.
I will continue to check on these daily with the increased nutes and lowered lights to see how they react. Im fully expecting them to explode now
since I am no longer defoliating.
Really great grow so far and a great first experience with pure ak and autopots.
Will update again next week.
The flowering nodes on your plants look to be absolutely amazing. You've done such an amazing job with this grow so far and I'm so excited to see how these plants finish up as well as to hear how they smoke. Best wishes my friend :D
Hey, thanks for the advice, it's much appreciated. I can confirm the pH of the girls in question are sitting within those ranges currently and will continue checking them every day. My shogun nutes have just arrived so I'm wondering if I should switch over to those or keep the current nutrients throughout the grow. Will try and do your strain justice! Thanks for popping in.
