In the beginning (First Grow)

Training the new growth toward the pot edges. Leaf color is dark green in typical Indica fashion First time getting nutrients. using Dyna-grow Protekt added first primarily to adjust my ph up.( It will send 5.8 distilled water up to about 8.5) Then adding the rest of the nutes/enzyme it's comes out in the 6.3 range. Dyna-grow recommends using this product as a stand alone silica additive it supposedly needs a high ph to keep it in solution. It has a higher silica % than most of the products out there so I figure I'm still getting some of the benefits of the product regardless. Take notice I'm now mixing up in gallon jugs. Used about 1/2 gallon per pot or until I get 10% runoff 1st watering of the week only. Runoff ph seemed low at 5.7 so I added 1 Tbsp. Epsoma pelletized lime lightly stirred into the top inch of soil and added a little extra feed water. Letting top inch of soil dry a bit between watering days. Only watering 1/4 gallon every other day or as needed using nutrients with every watering. I am not watering to the point of creating any runoff. Lowered led lights to 16". Using a par meter measuring a range of 400-550 umoles. With the exception of slow poke, all started showing pistils by the end of the week.
