I just ordered a desert reptile CFL Bulb (26 watt, 15% UVb), to try and drive up THC and trichome production in the last 1-2 weeks of these girls lives. Will put this on a 10-12 hour on cycle, probably just above the purple skunk for their last week, followed by the gorillas for their last week. Will be placed probably 12-18inch above the canopy. I've heard UVb light can increase thc by anywhere from 3-28% in different places. So I'll give it a try. One thing is for sure, all of the tiny amount of UVb given off by the 600w HPS is currently being filtered out by the glass on my cool tube. So let's add some back in!

Thanks. The base nutes are vitalink hydromax grow for veg and hydromax bloom for flower. I thought the low pH of hydro nutes would be a problem in soil, but it actually has been fine. Doesn't seem to be an issue at all. Think I'll take the 3 tall auto purple skunk mass to 9 weeks (2 more). The remaining gorilla crosses probably to week 9 or 10 (3 or 4 more weeks). They are all a week behind the purple skunk mass and it seems longer life strains too.

Thanks guys :) Yeah I think vitalink nutes are pretty decent! Doing a good job so far. Been using plant magic platinum PK booster with it. and also some bat guano then bubbling an air stone in the mixture. Started feeding the purple skunk mass with plain water now. The rest of them are gorilla crosses who are still a couple weeks behind. So still feeding those bloom nutes and they seem to be fattening up now too. Start of week 9 for x3 tall auto purple skunk mass. Start of week 7-7.5 for most of those gorilla crosses.

Also removed a lot of fan leaves by this point. They don't seem to be stressed by it at all really. They just carry on growing. And since they weren't LSTed at all, this has allowed those side branches to really develop. Been trying to get fan leaves off every couple of weeks, letting strong direct light to as many buds and bud leaves as possible.

It's also great having such a variety of smells in there. There are 3 mini, 2 medium and 2 big so 7 different plants, from my last hermie situation in my previous tent. They are a random mix of GG auto, GSC auto and Heavy weight short sweet. Some good variation in the batch from 1st generation crosses. Some smell like cookies, some like the glue and some completely different to any of the parents :P

Lighting In veg was 400w draw led. Not enough for them all really. So could have had bigger plants but it's okay. In flowering I've got 600w HPS in Cool tube along with the 400w draw led so 1000w total. During veg I used roots excelurator, superthrive, Voodoo juice, and molasses. With very small amounts of hydroponic veg nutes every now and again. During flower just using very small amount of bat guano, with a small amount of plant magic platinum (PK booster) alongside half strength hydroponic bloom nutes. Always give plain water every other day.
