'GDP x Bruce' by i49

Hey, hey everyone. Welcome to Week 6 of Bloom w/ Granddaddy Bruce. The Deets: The Good: -Pretty much zero complaints about GDPB's progress this week. She is finally bulking up in the way I was really hoping that she would. Slow start man, but she is getting frosty and fat. I see the Bruce in her for sure. Waiting to see if I can see the GDP pop too😀 -Trichome heavy and is super sticky. Accidentally brush up against her? Alcohol swabs😂. Like hot damn, the resin is thick and is even weighing down her top fans. 3-4 weeks left to go, though....😐. Hell ya. -She's noticeably firmed up, and if I remove the ties, she only splays a bit. For such a tall girl I'm happy to see her lateral strength. The Bad: -Nnnnope! The 'Meh': -I felt I was easing into a higher ec feed pretty well, but some top side symptoms and a slight downward, marginal leaf curl has occurred on her largest fans. Hardly noticeable, but it's there and I feel I pushed her a little to hard. Next feed was going to be a straight tap w/ Humic and Molasses anyways, so I'm hoping to drop a bit of her excess. -Though her mains are getting nice and thick, I STILL feel she is behind her counterparts, the amount of growth/undergrowth and side laterals on the others is clearly more defined and abundant then GDPB. I also have done very little pruning on her, besides suckers. The smaller, lower laterals just don't seem to want to pump up yet. Probably good I have a second harvest planned with her, too. Notes of the Week: -As mentioned in DD and SC's entries the SF-2000 has come in, been tested and has been in operation since last Thursday. It. Is. Godly. Love it and so do they. -Pulled and formed GDPB and PSK. Super easy to move now. Not getting hung up and barley touching the edges of the tent. Good Form👌. DD and SC will need to be pulled in a bit this week. They hold their own and don't need bracing, but man do they need to be a tad smaller so I can actually move 'em. -I'm still recording my run-offs for a bit. Not concerned too much with the readings, but need a ballpark measurement to see if my new feeding schedule is working. It is...but definitely needs some more work and refining. PPM's seem to have spiked a little bit and that shouldn't happen...😵. Looking at their top-sides to see what I'm giving too much of. A couple tentative schedule changes have been made, but I'll observe this week to see if what I have planned is actually a good idea or not. Below are last run-off's read and yesterdays numbers. -Random note... I brought back my buddies 4 dying plants😃. After 8 months he finally allowed me to interject and help him out. Super stubborn older fella that's stuck in old habits. My first flush readings were -5pH and +4000ppm. Like, wow. It's been two weeks and another application/flush/micro-dose @ 6.7/6.8pH has brought them out of the worst of it. I'm hoping another week and another nutrient flush through will bring them back to normalcy. Did the second process today with him and halved the ppm's above, while raising pH by +.4-.5 per plant. A good start, but a ways to go. Wish me luck, lol!👌😄 These things are getting shorter👍. Just cruising along now and watching them show their literal and figurative "true colors". I feel this will be another good week and I sincerely hope you all have a great week as well. Take care and enjoy the girls. I'll catch ya'll very soon. Cheers grow boys and girls👋👊
