DickJones Looking strong. Watering 3 times a day by hand at the moment. Will likely add drip ring setup next week.

DickJones Had an issue with nutrient lockout so that hurt growth. Flushed them out good. Started LST with some staples.

DickJones Lots of staking to spread her out. Some selective leaf removal to ensure all branches are getting good light. Trimmed off the new branch grow sites on the main branches.

DickJones These lovely ladies have been stretching like crazy. I've been adjusting/adding tie downs and clips every couple of days to try and flatten them out. Just like SCROG without the net. Having been selectively removing leaves that get no light or are just c-blocking a flower site. Both plants are looking strong with no signs of any nutrient issues. Fertigating thrice a day. Runoff is around 1100ppm.

DickJones Did some LST adjustments pulling branches down, bending them sideways. Removed a few leaves getting no light. These are supposed to be short plants but the one AK has stretched like crazy. I may have gone a bit nuts with how many flower sites I left but we will see.

DickJones The plants are two genetically different expressions which I always find to be interesting. P1 has longer branches and more blue in the leaves. Both of them really stretched more than I expected. AK's are supposed to be on the shorter side. Something I did different with this grow is to run the light in the flower spectrum grow stage(more red, less blue) from the start. Perhaps that helped stretch them more. Really excited to see what kind of weight these ladies make.

DickJones Coming along nicely. Removed a few leaves here and there. Running into problems with the drip rings. The biggest problem with the rings is they have different flow rates.

@CCSAUTOGROW, that is algae growth. Every time I touch it, its like goose poo. I am interested in seeing how big these buds get!
