Auto Grow - Zkittlez OG Auto (June 2020)

Summary for the start of week 8 - Day 50 Conditions - • Temperatures a little lower this week at an average of around 24c-26c during lights on • Humidity quite high due to the weather outside, reaching 70% at times, trying to bring this down without a de-humidifier but when the outside air is so humid already this is proving difficult • Watering every 1-2 days around 1-2L a day for each plant. The roots appear to have filled the substrate and the plants are drinking a lot now • Height is 50cm at the highest top from the soil to the canopy. Stretching should be just about finished • Light is being hung around 45cm or 18 inches from the canopy for the flowering phase • Smell is fairly strong when going into the tent Nutrients & Deficiencies - • Both plants are showing early signs of a calcium deficiency in the newer growth with brown speckles on young leaves. Canna Terra Flores brings the pH of the water down too much... Even with half the recommended dose the pH drops below 6.2 at times so I dilute with more water to bring it back up... but the rootzone pH has probably dropped too low to absorb calcium properly now. So plain water with plenty of run off is the plan for the next few waterings to bring the soil pH back up. Also foliar fed with CalMag at 10ml/litre just to try and get some calcium in through the leaves Grow Techniques & Training - • Defoliation on a few old fan leaves at the bottom of the stems for better airflow and so the plants can focus energy on the flowers Phenotypes & Variations - • Pheno 1 was stretchier intially but then stopped stretching first and started putting out more pistils and thicker looking flowers • Pheno 2 has become the taller of the two with more stretch
