My First Grow

Week 5 Day 29 This morning I noticed more color loss on the big fan leaves. I'm still worried about magnesium deficiency, especially since I didn't add epsom salt to the last feeding and relied on the magnesium present in the nutes. I had hoped it would have been enough but now I'm unsure. I gave her 5 cups of the nute mix from the other day and added 1/2 tsp of epsom salt. Ugh, I hope I kick this shit soon with this. Day 30 I don't know if it's just me being hopeful, but she seems to be looking better today! Also seeing more and more pistils popping up. We are on our way, can't wait to see her explode. I redid some ties last night. Day 31 With the magnesium deficiency seeming to be taken care of, she isn't getting any worse than she was. She still has her spotting, but it hasn't progressed from what I can tell. I readjusted her ties this morning some, and I'm thinking that it is the last time I will do this. I don't want her to get into flowering with her tops all pointing out instead of up. She seemed pretty dry, so I gave her 1/2 gallon of feed mix. Next time will be just water. Day 32 She's still going strong. There seems to be plenty of vertical growth still going on. Day 33 Holy hell, she is getting crazy. Probably could use a good pruning but I'm super leery to try that. She's just so thick and compact! I am thinking of changing her lighting cycle timing, as it has been getting nice and cool in the evenings. Plus with me being back in classes, it's hard to have her dark cycle start in the mid-afternoon and get her temps to drop like I want. She's still stretching upward a bit, and really showing how poorly I attempted the LST. I mean it worked well, but definitely could have been done better and cleaner. Edit: just got home from school and she's pretty droopy and needed watered. I gave her a 1/2 gallon of water, with 1/2 tablespoon of molasses and 0.6ml Mammoth P. I went high with the Mammoth P because 1) IDK if it is even still alive in there and 2) I wasn't going to let it sit overnight to allow the (potential) bacteria to use the molasses. With the 1/2 gallon, there was just a little runoff. I also went ahead and changed her timer. Her dark cycle will now be from 9pm-3am, to take advantage of the cooler temps overnight and have the windows open. Plus this is less work to adjust and maintain temps during the day dark cycle, which I had my wife attempting to watch out for. Day 34 She's still trucking! Super perky this morning, must have really liked the cool overnight temps with the light off. I was worried a little before bed because she was still droopy, but this morning she was wide awake and ready for the day. Day 35 Ending out week 5. I think she may be in flowering now? I'm honestly not even sure, being my first time. There are some pistils, but not a lot. When I got home last night, she was starting to droop again already. I checked the soil and it was pretty dry so I mixed up a gallon of water with nutrients. She was pretty close to going into her night cycle so I held off on watering until this morning. Gave her a little over 1/2 a gallon and there was just a little runoff. Her smell has definitely kicked up some, as when I open the door to the room it smacks you in the face.
