Plants were on slow side. Not a problem tho as long as they are healthy. Using around 1/5 recommended feeding dosage by canna to avoid any nastys that I had previously experienced . This was between week 2-3 I beleive. Had strecthig problem after one week as light was faulty which slowed things down a little. Fully expect nft system to shoot the plants off now..

Since last time started LST and also topped each plant. All have recovered nicely and getting on great. Some plants using different techniques just to see what works best as in defoliation. Keeping nutes 1/4 recommended dosage.

Plants filled out nicely now flipped 12/12. This feeding I gave them 1/2 strength nutrients which was maybe a little too much as some nute burn. Adding just plain water for now hoping doesn't slow them down.

Things looking good progressing nicely, switched to bloom nutes and red hps, 250w now 600. pH 5.5-6.0. fingers crossed. Gl everyone. Put cal mag in left tank half dose as back left plant was suffering from some deficency seemed to have fixed the issue as it's catching up with others nicely now. EC/ppm meter has been broken this grow so have been estimating nutes dosage prob not recommended but all I can do for now. Good luck everyone !

Coming on well, stopped growing in length now buds starting to fatten. Drinking loads now having to top up tank every few days. Not been able to keep a steady pH as keeps rising. Next week will be weaker feed with pk13/14. Running out of canna so switching to ionic as already got a bottle I got from a friend. Save some $. Gl everyone

Going into week five have added pk13/14 almost full strength will see how plants react before adding this dosage into other tank. Also snapped back some of the bigger stems to make an even canopy and expose some of the buds sights lower down to the light. Also some canna boost in there, expensive but hope it can add do it. Run out of canna Flores so added ionic bloom to make up for what was missing, think will be using this for remaining last week's of feeding to save me buying canna again, hopefully doesn't make much difference. Humidity under good control, temperature fluatiating ATM due to outside weather not consistent at all. To summarize I think things are going well. Peace everyone.

Flushing now for 3 weeks with fresh water only. Seen significant bud growth this week. Got some sort of deficiency on one plant I believe to be calcium. Just riding it out with the flush hopefully turns out ok. Was having trouble keeping the plants up straight on the 4 inch rockwool cubes. Temps were getting little high and humidity under control. Very little smell at all not sure if it's a positive or negative. They look very messy at the moment from.the HST but it's definitely worked out so far. Biggest plants are the back ones which probably shouldn't be the case with nft. Thinking they got better light exposure than the front.

First week of flushing complete, leaves starting to yellow already. Not sure if I started a bit early think maybe could of got away with another week of feeding but oh well best smoking cleaner bud anyway. Major breakthrough. Back right plant seems a monster with huge buds. Realised last week that one plant is different forgot I planted freebies and done an elimination so figured out that the freebie is G13 x blueberry headband by emerald triangle seeds. Flowers Def not as big as the CK but still looks good sized potent buds also seems to have some sort of calcium deficiency that I wasn't able to correct early enough . That's the first right plant from the pictures. Not been adding PH down or UP during flushing not sure if you should of anyone can correct me. Just thought whole point of the flush is for nothing but clean water to be in the tanks.

Still flushing, loads leaves have yellowed completely some still dark green, will have to tidy them up this week. All plants coming on nicely, ck buds are all huge going far down the plants, g13 strain not so much unfortunately. Smell is pretty potent at this point.
