This week I had A slight issue that has now been resolved, The drain pump came out of the power socket leaving stagnent water in the pots for 1-3 days not sure how long, I dired the root zone out and then resumed the feed schedule, everything appears to be back to normal.
At the end of week 2 blue gelato 41 reached its desired height and to combat the continuous stretch during this week (3 of flower) I switched the HPS back to LED and reduced the EC down to 1.2 and lowered the temp to 24/25c, this seems to have done the trick to some extent. I am foliar feeding every 3 days Sumo boost (contains triacontanol) combined with Silica. As I am approaching the start of week 4 I am going to lift the EC to 1.8 and switch the LED back to HPS at 600w. I see no need for a flush due to the low EC of 1.2.
I have began defoliation very slightly but continuously over the next 7 days to avoid stresses from vigorous defoliation that I have experienced in the past that have resulted in delayed flowering.
