10/20:
I foliar fed her today with some SP-90 humic/fulvic acid and kelp me kelp you. She will probably get fed again tomorrow. Drying out quickly-
10/21:
I applied Axiom again today..I sprayed her with the finest mist I could produce..tops and bottoms of all leaves to the point of runoff.
I fed her about a 1/4 gallon with nutes.
I put another big fan in the closet and turned off the evap cooler for the night so she'd dry out better.
10/22:
I used a stainless steel skewer to poke a bunch of little holes in the lower part of her fabric pot to try and improve oxygen availability to her roots. I also carefully arranged the garden so that there are gaps between all the pots. I think I'll also space my waterings a little further apart. The topsoil is drying out well enough, but I don't want her roots sitting in muck.
10/23:
She's flowering now, and starting to stretch a little bit.
After observing signs of nitrogen toxicity yesterday, I realized that I made another rookie mistake...(where is my head??)
The new 5 gallon bucket I'm using to mix a batch of nutes must be about 2 inches shorter than the one I had been using, and I never bothered to calibrate it....which I did today. So, for the past couple of feedings, I've been mixing in enough nutes for 5 gallons, but in only 4 gallons of water!!!
I foliar fed with BoomBoom Spray and gave her about 8oz of boomerang and cal-mag early in the morning, and by 5pm she looked happier.
Compared to the hybrid seedlings in the space, she's got very narrow, sativa-looking leaves..should be a treat!😋
I raised the lights about 2 inches today and dialed the ac infinity's high temp trigger up to 88f for a bit to get her to dry out a little faster, so the RH climbed a little higher as well...so I also set the ac infinity's high humidity trigger threshold to 65%.
10/24:
I fed her another little dose of boomerang and cal-mag, along with some bembe and open sesame.
10/25:
I fed her about 1/4 gallon with everything except Grow Big. I'll flush her on Sunday or Monday with Sledgehammer and only foliar feed with fulvic acid and boom boom spray until mid-week. Then I'll give her a good douching with humic acid, myco, tricho and beneficial bacteria and bembe(molasses and beet sugars/rock phosphate/trace elements) to keep the microbes thriving. I'll go heavy with P and K later in the week.
10/26:
Last day of week 4 and she's doing great! Her pot is still pretty heavy after her feeding yesterday, so it will probably be Monday before I flush her.
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Ya, the lights are def too close to the ones that have stretched the most..I super-cropped 5 of them one day, and the very next day there are a few more that need it as well...
I COULD remove the 10" oscillating fan I have mounted above my home-made light fixture and raise the lights another foot or so, but I think most of them are done stretching and I want to keep as even a canopy as possible...plus that fan really keeps the drivers and panel heatsinks cooler...
Looking good so far! I am hoping to try this strain on an upcoming grow so I will keep following along to see how things turn out. All the best to you growing forward! 👍
