Lights were swapped to the blooming bulbs and the schedule has been switched to 12/12. We are officially in flower! As noted at the end of last weeks journal, the plants all got some defoliation the night of the switch. It was a fairly light defoliation because even though I plan on taking off much more, I did not want to do too much at once and I will trim again more near the top when flowers start to form. I am including plant measurements below;
Purkle #1 - 9.5 inches
DoSiDo's - 10 inches
Real Gorill4 Plant 1 - 8.5 inches
Real Gorill4 Plant 2 - 8 inches
Update 2/10/19: Decided to do some aggressive defoliation on DoSiDo's and Purkle #1 now rather than wait due to how bushy they were. I have updated pics post trim.
Update 2/12/19: Looks like I may have waited a little too long in between watering because Real Gorill4 Plant 2 is looking a bit droopy and unhappy today. Watered with 2 gallons of pH 6.5 between the 4 plants. Runoff was around 6 so I believe my pH reading may have been slightly of. I am continuing to work on LST and keeping things as flat as possible.
Update 2/14/19: Continued LST and signs of flowering showing on the DoSiDo's. Nothing other to reflect on at this time.
All but one plant is showing some red/purple on the main stems. Temp drops to 66 which I did not think was cold enough to bring that out. Ph is on par with no issues. Calcium def? Worth adding cal-mag 5 weeks into flower? Only source of cal was in the lime in initial blend.
hey there Jayann, yeah the red stems, you're right, it's the first sign of stress. This might sound wierd because you dont hear this ever, but your CFL is probably a bit too close and it's causing this stress you're seeing. You can fix it with more dolomite lime or any other calmag supplement and by moving the light even just an inch further away. the plant should recover within ten days. Hope this helps ! 🚀
@CRiSPrGrow, Thanks for the great response. Very helpful! I certainly would have never thought of the CFL's being too close. I appreciate the suggestions and you taking the time to help!
