Ok, so I started noticing that this Glueberry just wasn't happy. I thought it was the lights at first, so I did some research. I thought maybe it was too much light since the last grow I just put the seedlings in a window. I looked up recommended light levels and everything pointed to about 7,000 lumens, so I bought a light meter and some dimmers for my Quantum Boards. I was at a whopping 23,000 lumens without the dimmers and the lights at 24". After putting on the dimmers I was able to get them both down to 7,000 lumens without a problem. By the end of week 3 my plan is to get up to 10,000 lumens. This helped but ultimately the leaves were still drooping and I wasn't seeing much growth. I did some more research and figured it was possible I was over watering, so I stopped watering the plant for almost the entire week. I was super nervous about the roots drying out too much and losing the plant. Sure enough after 4 days I found the plant no longer drooping. Like a dummy I was over watering. I added more water after drying it out, but this time it was just enough to get the coco moist. I needed to ease it back into full watering. The coco itself still has the Oregonism XL that I fed early on, so I haven't added anything additional beyond purified water. I normally use my RODI water but I didn't want to replace the filters from my previous grow. Instead I used Walgreens brand Nice Purified water. The PH is close to 6 and the TDS is 003, which is lower than my current RODI levels. I will probably keep using it for the first few weeks and gradually shift the plants over to my RODI water.

Nice looking grow man, I started the autoflowering version of this about the same time as yours also under a quantum board. Been really impressed with the growth so far - running a 4000k board I've also experienced very tight node growth - will be keeping up with your grow for sure Also wondering why they didnt call it Gorilla Blue xD Seems like the obvious choice

@IamJedi420, Well it did exactly what you experienced. This plant is huge. Even with multiple LST tie downs.

Your buds aren't airy because of genetics. Your buds are airy because of insufficient light and/or poor air flow directly on buds themselves.
