Dutch Passion & friends

10/25- Week 8! Two more weeks and it's FLIP TIME! Then thing will really start heating up in the 4x8 Gorilla! Today was a dry out day for the girls but I did adjust the LST on a couple and also pruned out a few of the shade leaves to open up the light penetration. Tomorrow they'll be receiving a lite water of 5g de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.2 @ 75 Deg. with 15ml/g Neptune's Harvest Seaweed Extract and 3ml/g Botanicare Silica Blast added before checking ph, the Alchemist PH Down was used to bring it to 6.2 10/27- Today I 'lollipopped' all the girls up about 1/3 of the way from the base. I also removed all the little 'suckers' and leaves in the lower third of the plants. No water today-letting the roots breath, checked pots by lifting them. The girls will be getting fed tomorrow with 1g each of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.4 with Fox Farms Grow Big/Big Bloom/Tiger Bloom added to give 1200ppm, except the Seedsman Peyote Wi-Fi as she is showing very slight nute burn on the very tips of her leaves so I'll cut back the ppm's on her feed. I now have the HLG 650R's pulling 545w at the wall and the girls are loving it! Flip is in two weeks, next week I'll remove all shade leaves except for the two big ones at the top of each branch, and most of the lower bud sites that will never produce decent buds. I'll also be adjusting the timer on the lights to 15/9 for the final week before going to 12/12 but it will depend on how tall they are at that time as it will speed up them going into flower at the expense of less stretch. So, if the girls are still fairly short I'll go form 18/6 right to 12/12 which will allow the max stretch from them...we'll see. 😎👍 10/29- Today was a 'dry out' day with the only girl that need a drink was the #1 Dutch Passion White Widow and I gave her 1g de-chlorinated water @ 74 deg. ph'd to 6.3. I went through all the girls and adjusted LST, tucked shade leaves and exposed as many nodes as possible. The HLG 650R's are now pulling 1086w at the wall. I won't crank them up anymore until the second week of flower. 10/31- 💀HAPPY HALLOWEED!!!👻
