Well I figured out what was wrong with my Pineapple Chunk. Turns out ocean Forrest soil is about a 5.3ph instead of 6.5 like it should be. Luckily I had two clones from my last grow Barney's LSD which turned out amazing, extremely dense buds, didn't have much smell at all... Until after curing and then WOW!!! So the clone which was mixed with composted manure had a slightly higher ph about 5.7 today checked them both because my clone was starting to show signs of lockout or nutrient deficiency on the larger older leaves that I removed today. So I transplanted it to some fresh soil with extra perlite and some garden lime to bring pH to 6.5 hopefully she gets better in the next couple days. Won't be using ocean Forrest again, heard a lot of good things about promix, if anyone has any opinions about best soil let me know, I'd love to hear your suggestions. Didnt have a whole bunch of photos of the clones since i thought theyd be going outside but put up what i had. Will be daily from now on though.
@DILLIGAF, I try to keep my soil around 6.5 but mix the nutrients up a little higher because my runoff is usually low. If i pour it in at 6.2 it comes out 5.5-5.9 im guessing from nute build up in the soil. Or because my soil is a little too acidic. Ive been told ocean forrest uses oyster shells to control ph and as they break down they make the soil more acidic, like peat moss.
@zedoninha, Ive been worried about that. Was hoping with all those tops she would gain height a little slowler like she was in veg but not sure now. Ill make her fit one way or another.
@CanaryGrow, i usually try to just cut the leaves that have grown to full size and start to reach further out away from the plants. I read that the leaves that grow from the stem use the sugars they produce for stem and root growth and the ones that grow from flower sights support flower growth. Ive also noticed that the chutes of my side branches reach up quite a bit and have more stem space on the buds, but if i cut the large fan leaves off at the base of the chute then the chute will not stretch as much and instead just grows fatter and denser with little to no stem space.
@bobthebudder, yes man i know and it makes sense to me, ibut i have a problem knowing what to actually cut off, i did a lot of training and i have many nice looking branches. I am thinking to wait for stretch to see easier what should i take away. Stretch jsut started today :)
@CanaryGrow, it does seem to help. I was paranoid about trying it at first but was told by several people it really helps because the plant can send more water and nutes to the bud plus more light to the lower buds. Tried it on my last grow and had denser buds than ever.
By the way i made a mistake this week (week 5) i forgot to change sugars from liters to gallons. I only 15ml of technoflora sugar daddy per galon not 50+
