Day 22 18/10
Condition:
FP: Doing well and catching up with BP in terms of growth, no signs of stress or such.
BP: Maintaining it's lead over FP in size but I noticed some light chlorosis on a couple of leaves from the 4th node growth and the margins not worrying yet but I will keep an eye on it.
Overall, they are both doing well, no big obvious problems. I suspect BPs starting sign is light stress (it was getting close) but the LST and moving the light up a little should help resolve that.
Setup:
Moved the light up, maybe a little too high but honestly that's mostly because I needed space for LST.
Time to train these beauties into a more even shape and get those lower nodes a little more light.
I have started off with main stem (naturally) and pinning some of the larger leaves back to encourage the side stems. Once those sides reach a decent size I want to try and train them out away from the body.
Note: I started the LST last night and as you can see from the pics, yeah I already need to adjust it. Slow and steady is the name of the game with these lovelies, I swear those top pairs of leaves where not that big last night.)
Nutes:
Moving from just Fish-Mix and Alg-A-Mic to adding in our Flowering Nutes, Got a day to decide so going to research and will update.
Day 26 22/10
Condition:
Constant updates to the LST needed, they are growing beautifully and quick. Had a little loss with a lower growing tip getting caught and removed :( Only the very very tip which is so delicate, but it should recover. I definitely think I need to get a net in for ScrOG sooner rather than later but I will do what I can with LST for now. Also the plants are getting a little lighter at the flowering points and you can now see the girls are definitely girls. Seems we are right on schedule.
SetUp:
No change, the lights are where they will stay as I cant take it higher and I need to keep these plants down, net install coming up.
Nutes:
Just went for the recommended BioBizz schedule, so dropped the fishmix down a touch to account for the bloom and top max coming in, the game will be see how they down with it for a week then test a light increase to get the most out of these beauties.
