I finally got a new certified TDS monitor and figured out that my last one was cheap and unreliable. I'm getting much better readings for this part of the veg cycle (600-700).
Running pH a little on the high side to rectify what I thought might have been a slight magnesium deficiency caused by pH Down-ing the shit out of it before I went on vacation (got down to like 5.5 which I figured would fix itself as alkalinity levels in the water rose).
This week I finally proceeded with the first of the mainlining steps outlined in the Nebula Haze tutorial on Grow Weed easy. The plants are freshly topped and their remaining growth tips are tied down. Now we wait and see how they respond in week 4!
My PPMs are reading 600 in the DWC reservoir, which seems high. Tap water reads 380 normally. Doing a top feed system so the roots will reach the top feed tube in about 2 days if they germinate. Should I do a complete res change or just top up with pH'd RO/distilled water?
I dont do dwc or hydros at all, but if it was me in ur position i would just add RO water untill i got the desired ppm.
Good luck tho.
Stay lit hydrogrowmie.
We have a sprout! Tropicana Banana sprouted between 10pm last night and noon today. Can I turn the light on now, and start the 18-6 schedule tonight or will it fuck it up if I turn the light back off at midnight tonight to begin the 18-6 schedule?
Yup as soon as they are "sprouted" they are ready for light.. 24-0..18-6...20-4.. You choose the veg schedule.. as long as it's more then 12 hours of light she will not go into flower.. All the light schedules are for is to simulate the changing of the season.. so when you flip to 12-12 in a couple months the plant "feels" that autumn or fall is coming so it flowers..
For mainlining, after the first cut, do I need to move the soft garden ties out as the new growth tips grow? The green crack is really shooting out in recovery and I want to keep it in it's manifold shape as it does. How many days between LST sessions essentially?
depends on how fast those stems get woody. I've had some that get quite rigid quickly, and others i could wait a week and still bend it around with no problem -- even if not mainlining, i mean i could shape it to do so had i wanted to given the flexibility.
LST is simply shifting apical dominance by manipulating height of node(s). You can do it as you feel necessary. Too much too early can shock a plant.. if it stops growing for a second or two, you were probably too early for that sort of stress.
Canopy management has been a bitch and the results are an uneven, but full canopy. Am I advised to continue LST until the canopy is even or, given that it's almost been 3 weeks since flipping to 12-12, should I avoid further stressing the plants?
You can keep it tied down right up to harvest...I accidentally left a wire to one of mine. Just don't bend the stem because it should be getting woody around before week 3
