Durban Poison SCROG SIP (Sub Irrigated Planter)

Ooooooo-eeeeeee……she’s starting to smell wonderful. I rub the stems and I get a wonderful pine scent. Excited to see how these girls produce. Welcome to week #2 of flower. I update my journal daily based on daily activities. Average daytime temperatures are around 80;degrees. Most importantly, my exhaust fan is holding the VPD at 1.1. Day 8. Wednesday - Added half gallon of nutrient solution, lowered ph in reservoirs from 6.4 to 6.0 with .5ml of ph down. Raised the LED by two inches to offset for plant growth. LED is now 15” above the plants on full blast and providing a daily light integral of 35.5. That’s ok for now, but I’d like to see it closer to 40 in weeks 3-5 of flower. I will likely need to lower my light to increase intensity. Reservoirs at 6.0 ph and 800 ppm. Day 9. Starting to get concerned that the high nutrient content will result in the need for a flush in 2-3 weeks. In preparation, I’m reducing my nutrients slightly to prevent excess salt buildup at the roots. I’m updating this week to reflect the reduced feed.
