Felt the need to defoliate to improve airflow and reduce risk of fungus gnat infestations in the crucial stages of the grow. The buds are beginning to smell a little sweet up close but still no stank in the air. Eased up on the nutes all together. My pH issue (too low) wasn't getting getting any better even after adding egg shells and watering with 7.2pH so I flushed her yesterday with about 2.5L water at 7.0pH.
I will check runoff at next watering and update the stats which will probably be in two days from today. She's still heavy and not in need of water. She needs more than 1L at a time to get a proper soak. I will go up to 1.5L and see how it goes next time.
Temps are slightly higher than usual after adding the second 300W lamp. About 85F.
Watering schedule I think should alternate between bloom nutrients and cal mag and probably work out to about a water/feed every 2-3 days if she gets a good soak.
Day 6 gave it some seedling nutes only 170ppm to ease her into it. She's also been ramped up to 20/4 from 18/6 today. Mars Hydro 300W (drawing 135W) at about 24". 170ppm in and abour 350ppm out. 6.5pH in and 6.3pH out.
Looking good! Anything above 20c is fine looks indicate by the wide shape of the leaves they can usually grow fine above 16c. Trust me from experience where I live it gets cold 😨
hi man!
You say this is your first grow...you want try scrog with one plant in first time grow? I read on your profile, scrog like method of growing......really?
