✋Wk14:When will it be the ‘right’ time? 👉This is day 103 total, day 69 flower for the 1 gallon plant, and day 58 flower for the 3 gallon plant. The week has shown more changes with the run-off. Both plants are consuming less and the EC run-off spikes quickly. I will continue fertigations till the day of harvest. I’ve been watching the pH in the run-off. Its not a stat that is not supposed to matter. I accept that, but I recorded the stats anyways because its on the meter display anyway. I have noticed that when the EC goes high the pH also changes, but each plant changed its pH run-off in opposite directions. Normally I would aim for 5.7-5.9 for my solution pH. For the last 3 weeks or so I adjust the pH for the incoming solutions to the opposite end of the range that its been trending towards. The 1gallon pot pH would run-off would trend down and often would be as low as 5.2. The run-off pH would trend upwards noticeably if I fertigated with 6.0+ pH solution. The same happened with the 3gallon plant, except it was the opposite direction. What does it mean? It means that different conditions exist in each plants media. It could all be the result of many different factors, all of which I can only guess at. The temperatures have been all over the spectrum outdoors, but I have not run the heater since last week. This resulted in overall lower temps in the tent. From 62F, the lowest during dark period, to the high of 78F at the canopy. The average lights on temps by the end of the week were the low 70s at the canopy. The mild day time temps have been cool enough that the a/c barely ran at all during the week. 👉The smell of these plants is very strong. The 6” fan is still set to low speed and evacuates the aroma so none gets into the house (I know this because the wife hasn’t complained once). But outside (where it’s vented to)…well its AWSOME! It’s so strong now that even on day with moderate winds you can smell it all around the house if it blowing right. The 1 gallon plant has changed slightly. Not many fresh white calix. The plant isn’t consuming much fluid. The leaves look like shit but haven’t really changed. The trichomes have been slowly changing to cloudy. I will be doing an extensive search of the plant for the status of the trichomes. I am seeing at least 50/50 clear/cloudy with only a very few amber. I’m looking for 60%+ milky. It is very hard to differentiate the milky from the clear because the LED lights make all of them glow as if milky. Seeing them from indirect light (in the shade) is key. Being able to get good close up views is very frustrating. Focusing makes the image blurry and takes a couple second to stop shaking when release so it’s a lot of repetitious focusing on one spot. 👉The 3 gallon looks like it has multiple issues all at once. I believe they are all tied to one thing, the density of the roots and how they need a 5 gallon pot. They look light stressed, Nitrogen rich, cal-mag poor, wind stressed, and over watered. I have made adjustments to address each thing but they never seemed to subside. The latest to show is the curled lower fan leaves. They look like a plant that is over watered, curled in and droopy. While I do supply way more liquid than most, it would seem possible, but I don’t think u can over water coco, unless of course it’s not draining. I do think the root density may have caused areas to not drain or rinse. It’s the thing that makes most sense to me. The buds are looking great and super fat and mega dense. They are the densest buds Ive grown yet. I fear the curse of the grey death…botrytis. I have been doing a little trichome hunting also and most are looking cloudy! I hope to take the 1 gallon in the next day or two if it looks right so I can have more room to inspect this one to get a better idea where its at. The humidity has been good at 50% and I have had no dangerous episodes of heat so far (temps over 82F). 👉I'd be fooling myself if I thought anyone was actually still reading this, well maybe there is. I actually read everything in diaries that I follow, so I guess its possible someone has gotten this far down. I hope everyone is staying safe. Not much has changed for me with the CVD-19 shitstorm. I have an 'essential' job, but odly enough I want to work. Unsually when I take vacation I say I could do the whole no job thing and love it, now that people aren't allowed to work I am grateful I have the opportunity to work and that my world hasn't been shaken. I havent taken my liberty for granted and feel very blessed. I use the solace of my grow to escape the world issues. Its another world and one I never thought I would ever be able to do without the risk of severe consequences. Now I am without a care when I go into my grow room to open my tent. I escape the moment the aroma hits me in the face as I pull back the flap. A couple of hours seems to fly by in moments as I tend to the task of growing the sweet leaf. I hope everyone can find that escape as I have that they grow good big buds.
