At the end of week 5! An interesting week to be sure: 1) raised my light another ~6" as it became clear there was some light stress affecting the bluematic. I didn't upload the pictures but things were looking rough. Couple days later, bluematic became very happy again and we were off to the races. 2) My bluematic runoff pH got as low as 5.7. The runoff measure the week prior was at 6.2. Despite measuring my inputs' pH at 6.2-3 each time, after the addition of tiger bloom the runoff pH plummeted. For now I gave the bluematic a good but minor flush and she looks really happy again. From here on out I will be checking my runoff pH each feed and will be shooting for an input pH of 6.6-7. 3) I believe I accidentally delayed the flowering on my headband by over-pruning. The plant is just stout. I've removed 20+ leaves now and it's just still a monster. I am done removing anything from the plant and I'm instead running an additional dehumidifier outside the tent and another rotating fan inside the tent. 4) Bluematic was getting a little too much direct fan work so I now have one fan that circulates mostly indirectly above/near the canopy and one that circulates semi-indirectly under the canopy. Both plants seem happy overall. 5) Bluematic displayed very slight nutrient burn signs on its leaf-tips. I am backing the amount of nutrients down a slight amount until the plant tells me it wants more. 6) My tent smells lovely. The Headband doesn't have much smell at all yet but the Bluematic smells like sugar and berries.

Wanting to double check with bigger cultivation brains than mine - my bluematic leaves are drooping pretty quickly after a watering. Am I correct in thinking that this is symptomatic of over-watering?

Yes sir you can see how the leaftips are dropping. Your rootzone is stressed, give your plants more time between feedings. Especially when you overfeed them, they will drink slowly now and also have to take up more water, you should wait like 4-5days. Or you have the same situation again in 2-3days. And when the top layer like 1cm is dry, water till runoff to ensure all your roots getting water. Simply higher the amount till the maximum your pot can take, but feed less often. Especially now where they have to deal with the overfeeding, which will take around 2days on top of your normal waterng shedule

Yup, looks like a standard marijuana plant to me. I'd be happy.

@Leonardo_DaGrower, Absolutely! My favorite part is figuring out how to fix/prevent mistakes from one run to the next. My PPD Auto is almost done, very excited.

@James, didn't realize you rep RQS! Loving the bluematic so far, I'm going to run it again once this grow is done.

@RasendeRollo92, thank you! I'm gonna increase my watering schedule a bit because that plant droop looks like a thirst problem. Thanks for stopping by.
