1st Grow Ever, Coco, 6 Autos, 6 Strains

Everything went way too smoothly up until this point. Adding the dehumidifier was needed, but I did not realize how hot the vent would make the tent, which is one reason I decided to start the dry koolbloom, so that I could try to induce finish before the heat causes damage to the plants. It is ironic, the heat stayed the same even though it is not as ambient hot outside. I still prefer the results to bud rot or mold of any kind, so it is a "pick your poison" situation. I started the new feeding on friday, 9/15 I followed GH instructions, but as per before, I kept the Cal-Magic higher for 3 days. It wasn't enough. Aborted Feed FloraMicro 2.5ml gal FloraBloom 8ml gal SM-90 2.5ml gal Cannazym 2.5ml Gal Ful-Potential 2.5ml gal Dry Koolbloom 0.25 tsp gal Floralicious Plus 1ml gal CaliMagic 2.5ml gal FloraNectar 5ml gal Drip Clean 0.4ml gal The burnt tips were expected. The insane tye dye Cal def on the buds was NOT expected. Leaves started turning all sorts of different colors, Now we are starting to foxtail as well and plants are too close the the lights for my comfort. so I lowered the Dry Koolbloom to half and increased cal magic and micro back up to "coco with LED" levels. The new feeding on Monday 9/18/17 was: FloraMicro 4ml gal FloraBloom 8ml gal SM-90 2.5ml gal Cannazym 2.5ml Gal Ful-Potential 2.5ml gal Dry Koolbloom 0.125 tsp gal Floralicious Plus 1ml gal CaliMagic 3.75ml gal FloraNectar 5ml gal Drip Clean 0.4ml gal Examining the plants, and seeing Cal def, possible P def, and possible N def, I grew concerned over lockout. PH out was very close to what was put in, slightly higher as expected but the best of the grow by far. EC of runof, however,f was higher than expected. If it's a nutrient and not PH lockout, then i need to coco flush (50% nutes), which I did today, 9/19/17., with half strength nutes and full strength Cal-Magic. The runoff was still pretty high in EC for some plants, but interestingly not for the plants with the more visible signs. I may do half strength again tomorrow and go back to the full amended feeding if they improve, or at least don't degrade further. The frustrating part, is the Kush, my ridiculously huge yielder, still has a majority of white hair and is foxtailing on top of formed buds. Trics still say "not yet" for all plants. Even the couple that look like they could come out of a bag right now. Everything went so smooth before, I was due to have my struggles due to inexperience. Here it is. Obviously, I am planning for next garden and I will vent the dehumidifiers exhaust to the main exhaust so the heat gets expelled from the tent. Actually, that won't work as that would bypass the carbon filter. I can't expel it out to the room because that is the air that goes back into the tent. Back to the drawing board. Also, the bottom of the tent is a very cool 22 while the top of the tent is 28, so there is quite a variance of temp at different heights. That may be exploitable. These problems are pretty much where inexperience came in during grow design. When they say beginners will only yield a fraction of a gram that experienced gardeners will, it is because of simple mistakes like this that I will have learned by the end of the grow, but may effect my yield. I am no longer worried about yield, I want it to smoke and taste good and have degood potency. WARNING: If you run coco and LEDs and don't use coco specific nutes, you are going to need to add a lot of calmag. You will likely need to supplement even if using coco nutes, imho. Way more than you think. This is like my 4th bout of it, and everytime I try to drop it, I get it again. I hope it wont effect the taste running calmag for so long 9/20/17 I think it is light burn, along with the cal def and nute burn. Nothing more. I am going to 50% coco flush for another day as a couple plants didnt seem to lower in ec even with 2 days of 50% feeding. Unexpected, but the plants still seem to want to get closer to that light, despite the harm it may be causing them. I have no where else for my lights to go. Super cropping is the only real solution at this point and i REALLY dont want to do that on my 1st grow when so many buds need support vertically as it is. Anyway, I am going to do no Humic/Fulvic besides floralicious, tomorrow, as I just ran out of Ful-Potential and it is being replaced by Ful-Power so I figured, why not give them a day between the 2? Besides, the people who are into Ful-Power are almost cult like in their alleigence to the product, much like those who use coco, or sm-90, or Roots Excelerator. Then I think, I am not in many clubs, and the people who are that determined also show pics of whiffle ball bat sized buds. So, I decided being in a cult is not the worst thing as long as no one is harmed and there are whiffle ball bat sized buds involved I am learning a ton, and while I knew more nutes wasnt always better, I am seeing why bigger isnt better all the time either.
