I couldn't wait to give these genetics a second try and see how much I can improve, so while I was finishing up my harvest from last grow I started these seeds. I had 9 seeds, 8 germinated, 7 produced seedlings. So in total that's 11 of 13 seeds that became plants. I thought I was going to have 8 plants, so I called this journal "Double the Trouble" but now it doesn't really make sense, anyways... With this grow I'm going to try to correct as many of the mistakes I made with my first grow as I can and just see what happens. I decided to start these seeds in cups of Happy Frog and transfer them when they're around two weeks old to Ocean Forest. It could have been my cheap pH meter, but Ocean Forest seems too hot for seedlings. I had way too many problems with over watering when I planted directly into 5-gallon pots. When I transfer, I'm going to transfer to 3-gallon pots so I can water more often to prevent the salt build up that happened last time. I'm planning to avoid using any type of training and just position the tall plants further away from the center of the tent, but if I get a tall pheno that might all go out the window. I'm also not going to use any nutrients until ~30 days after transferring into their final pots and just see if I can avoid nute burn. Last time I only used Recharge for microbes which helps with nitrogen, but this time around I'm going to add Mammoth P during flowering. Taste is as important as potency to me so I want to see how "organic" I can go with microbes while still using General Hydroponics 3-part. I'm calling 11-20 day 1 even though it's day 3 or 4 for plant 2. It was the first day they all had open leaves. Doing it that way worked for me last time so I'm doing it again. Also I just have to throw out there, if you haven't heard of "The Dude Grows Show" look it up on youtube. The knowledge they drop on that show has helped me tremendously in every aspect of growing, and they're really entertaining.

Can you highlight the equipment you used for these results?

@MisterPandaBear, Light used was an HLG 550 3000k V2. Tent was a 4x4 Gorilla Grow Tent. Exhaust Fan/Can was a 6-inch Vivosun package on Amazon. Main air circulating fan in the tent was a Honeywell Quiet Set. That's all of the equipment I can really think of that matters.

Just wanted to add that I got the opinions of some growers I respect and they have diagnosed the problem as too much calcium. Lesson learned for next grow. I'm not going to supplement calcium in any form until I see an actual deficiency that isn't caused by lockout, which I may or may not be able to recognize, but I'm willing to try ;)

I'm posting this on day 43. I watered a few plants tonight and did the same nutes for all of them, but used 10 drops of pH down in one gallon, and no pH down or up in the others. All gallons used had the same pH (6.5) when I measured them with a digital meter. I then went and tried the pH test kit that's done with drops of test solution that came with my pH down/up kit. That also shows the water is at 6.5. I tested run off for pH. The gallon that got the 10 drops of pH down produced 5.9 run off. Liquid test confirmed it was very close 6.0. The other gallons produced 6.1 run off and liquid test was a tiny bit greener meaning the pH was slightly higher. I think I'm going to flush with some straight up plain old water that hasn't been pHed and see if I can get the soil to be less acidic. I think I finally understand what's happening with the multiple deficiencies and I'm hoping that things haven't reached the point of no return yet. Is it normal for tap water pH to fluctuate?
