Sorry if this week looks weird when I save it. I struggled to get the website to allow me to add another week of flowering, but it had no problem with me adding a week of veg. It wouldn't allow me to change anything so I'm not going to write a whole lot in case it doesn't save, which it has done to me multiple times this journal.
I'm keeping an eye on trichomes and plant 2 is the only plant that hasn't been officially flushed at this point, but its run off TDS was showing 300 ppm so if it stays that low after watering next time I'm not going to go through an official flush with it and just see how it turns out. I'm thinking about cutting down everything but 2 and 6 on day 90ish, but trichomes will dictate dates.
@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.
Some lovely colors on that lady. Fantastic work. Beautiful purple color starting to come in nicely. Keep doing what your doing and best of luck the rest of the way growmie
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?
