Day 42 Plants seem to be a lot happier under the dimmed light. I'll raise the wattage little by little but I'm happy I'm no longer killing them. I have the same feeling I got from my first grow, in that I want to start over already with the new knowledge I've gained from this grow.
Day 45 It's pretty much confirmed that having the light turned up too high was the source of all my problems. It finally feels like I've got my entire setup dialed in. Unfortunately the mistakes I've already made are irreversible, but they're a reminder to do better next time. I finally ordered a few things that I should have bought a long time ago, a PH pen, a PPM pen, and a 100x magnifier to see trichromes. I fed the girls both 2 grams of Maxibloom to 1 gallon of water. Hopefully we can just coast to the finish line at this point. I'd be happy with an ounce off of each plant.
Day 47 Feels like it's gonna be coasting to the finish line from here. Plants responding well to the nutrients and the light. Have certainly thickened up a bit since last week. They don't seem to be drinking anymore water than they were a couple weeks ago. Still watering every 4 days. I think I'd like to water every 3 days and I'm hoping that running 2 gallon pots next run will allow me to do that.
Day 49 Final day of week 7. Girls got a gallon of ph'd water each today. Super stoked on them thickening up. Again, it feels like I've got everything dialed in finally. They're not showing signs of any new deficiencies, they're just maturing and that makes me really happy. Decided to run Strawberry Nuggets for my next run. Going to try and fit 5 in this tent lol. See you guys in week 8.
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!
