Day 29 of Flower
Adjusted pH. Slight pruning & defoliation.
Day 31 of Flower
Switched from Liquid Koolbloom by GH to Dry Kool bloom by GH as my ok booster.
Day 33 of Flower
Adjust pH. Adding nutrient solution daily.
Day 36 of Flower
Week 5 of Flower Ends & Week 6 begins.
I performed a nutrient/water change for Pheno’s 1 & 2.
The nutrient content went from a high 3500 ppm to 1700 ppm in each bucket. I also began to bring the Nitrogen content down a bit as well as most of the nutrient requirements are in the form of Phosphorus, Potassium, and even some micronutrients that aid in cannabinoid and terpene production, such as Sulfur.
I will also decrease the temperature to the lower 80’s this week instead of the upper 80’s. During week 6,7,8, & 9-10. I will also be gradually decreasing CO2 supplementation to aid in ripening (1400ppm in 6, 1200ppm in 7, 800ppm in 8, & natural ambient CO2 in 9-10).
As the late flowering weeks come, I will decrease lighting ppfd and dli. I will increase the duration of UVB supplementation the last 2 weeks to 2 hrs on in the am and 2 hrs on in the pm prior to lights off.
Environmentally, I will be decreasing the humidity as well as temperatures. During the last 2 weeks I’m shootings for 75F/35%RH.
During Week 7 I incorporate hydro drought stress to increase cannabinoid and terpene levels. In DWC it won’t be easy, but I will give it a period of time with no water until the fan leaves angle is 45 degrees lower than when fully watered. I will use the utmost care and attention for this process. Pheno 3 in soil will be much easier because I can adjust the plant gradually.
