Hey friends! 🌱 We’re in week seven, and earlier this week, I flushed the Runtz because I noticed a nutrient deficiency on a few leaves. Did a big flush with 15 liters of water at pH 5.5, which brought the pH down from 6.8 to 6.3 — and it should keep dropping gradually. Now it’s feeding happily with A+B 4ml/l, Myco Chum 0.8 ml/l, and CalMag 0.4 ml/l, with a PPM of 800 and pH 5.5. The runoff is at PPM 450 and pH 6.3. 🌊
As for the Gorilla 🦍, its pH also spiked up to 6.9, which caused a bit of burn on 2-3 leaves. So, today, I decided to give it a flush too and switch it over to flowering nutrients. Finally looks like it’s starting to bloom! 🌸
On top of that, humidity’s been pretty high 🌧️. It’s cold and damp outside, so tent humidity hits around 60% during the day and can go up to 90% at night! I know that’s way up there, but I haven’t had a chance to defoliate yet. Most of the moisture’s coming from the leaves, especially the ones overlapping at the bottom — they’re constantly wet. Might do one final defoliation in 1-2 weeks.
The uneven flowering also means the Runtz will finish up about two weeks before the Gorilla, which is a bit tricky since I’ll need to dry in the same tent and don’t have another space. 😅
I thought the Gorilla would stay small because it was stressed early on, but it’s really living up to its name — growing like a true beast! 🦍😂
This week, Gorilla had a flush 💦 due to visible nutrient deficiencies on the leaves 🍃. Here’s the breakdown of the last watering:
Gorilla:
• Bloom A: 4ml/l
• Bloom B: 4ml/l
• CalMag: 0.4ml/l
• Myco Chum: 0.8ml/l
• PPM: 800
• pH: 5.5
Runoff:
• PPM: 400
• pH: 6.5
Runtz:
• Bloom A: 4ml/l
• Bloom B: 4ml/l
• Big Bud: 1ml/l
• Myco Chum: 0.8ml/l
• PPM: 900
• pH: 5.5
Runoff:
• PPM: 500
• pH: 6.5
Runtz is about 11 days ahead of Gorilla in flowering 🌸.
This week, I’m not planning any major changes. I really wanted to defoliate because humidity levels are reaching 80-90% 💧, but I’ll hold off for now. I’d rather let the plants focus all their energy on developing flowers 🌺 instead of growing new leaves.
Wishing everyone a peaceful and successful grow! 🌿💚
