Day 22 More LST, I think. It's probably safe to assume there's been some LST done between the days.
Day 23 A new challenger has appeared. The Meiju 240w. What an excellent light. The girls were just about to outgrow the footprint of the TS600 so this arrived at a perfect time. I think I set it to 18 inches away 150w at first. I didn't want to blast the plants immediately and I was also a bit worried about heat.
Day 24 I gave the FCxFS nutes for the first time. It's been a bit ahead of the Forum Stomper the entire time and it's starting to form buds, so I figured it was time. I had been watering every 2 days up to this point.
Day 25 Leaves on the bottom of the FCxFS are starting to yellow out due overwatering and/or the soil being too acidic. Mistakes are expected and hopefully learned from.
Day 26 A bit more LST and the FCxFS is in its final shape for the most part. I wish I had done a bit more training to get it out of a half circle shape, but I didn't want to bend it too much while it was already starting to flower.
Day 27 This picture hurts to look at. N tox on the left and probably the right as well. Both are overwatered. This is the beginning of an issue I've hopefully corrected since. I would water and instead of draining the runoff, I would let it soak back into the fabric pot over the course of a few minutes. I did this for a few waterings, and so you'll start to see the effects of salt buildup more and more. At night, the pots were drying up and the plants were looking a bit better.
Day 28 . My plants are on 20/4, lights go off at noon and come back on at 4 PM. The lights were on for 30 minutes when we had a storm roll through and knock the power out. We were without power for 25 hours total, and so the plants had 29 hours of darkness. I think I lucked out in having them be due for a watering when the power went out. Had they been soaking wet from a recent watering, I think I may have ran into some issues. They looked real sad in the dark. I fanned them by hand for a bit because I was worried about mold or powdery mildew.
Lookin' great! Glad to see you're on GD :) At first I thought your Meiju light was a Mars Hydro TS600W (looks identical to the TS600W, that I have). Nice setup! I have the ACI T4 and Genesis Clip on fan too!
