Wednesday:
Res changed out and rearranged. Bumped the Grow up to 15 ml/gal. Working with these you get a nice fruity stank, really excited to see how they flower.
Semi-arbitrarily numbered the plants by size, #1 is most likely to go into the flower tent when it's free.
#3 has exhibited that leaf curling since around week three, appears to be genetic.
Saturday:
I started defoliating systematically. My basic process is: find the growth tips I would like to slow down a bit and take the leaves off the second or third node from the top to help expose the lower branches around them. Newer leaves have a nice spicy anise taste with a hint of fruitiness (-- You taste your leaves? -- Do you not?)
Also checked TDS & pH. Forgot to write that down but the smaller plants were down to around 550ppm and 6.1 pH, I left them alone. #1 was around 480ppm and pH 6.3, I gave it another 5ml of Grow getting up around 800ppm. (All net ppm)
