Bloody Skunkus Amungus

Week 5 - Changed out my lights started the bloom light at 16" Par reading of 500-575 umoles. Seems like they did a bit of stretching. Buds forming and throwing out a great deal of pistils. So far it looks like at least two phenotype definately 2 with purple buds starting the other 2 are green but am hoping to see a bit of color come through over the next few weeks. I removed any lower leaves that were touching the sand and also pinched off any lower popcorn bud sites that I didn't feel would not get enough light hopefully directing energy to upper bud sights. Did a bit of leaf tucking here and there tied back a few pairs of fan leaves by their stems pulling them to the rear sides on the main cola. Keeping the colas to the outer sides of the box seems to keep the light intensity within a reasonable range without burning any leaves so far. Note : I am now mixing up my nutes by the gallon now not by the liter. I'm gradually increasing the ppm of my feed solution about weekly depending how they look. I'm still a bit on the cautious side about nute burn. I'm feeding every watering to a point of slight runoff about every other day. Last feeding of the week I water to the point of 20% runoff and check the runoff ppm to make sure it isn't crazy high. I'm using an electronic moisture meter and feeling the weight of the pot to determine my next watering. It seems like the plant that was showing lighter green leaves is drinking a bit slower than the rest so she's been getting a bit less than the rest at every watering hopefully she"ll catch up with her sisters.
