First Grow! Blue Dream [Photo] in coco!

Week 6: 10/29 - 11/04 Day 36 - They were both responding well to the transplant. The pots were dry this morning so I re-saturated the coco with 2L each and got a lot of runoff. I'll have to figure out what's the right amount of water these 3 gal pots require without runoff. I'm going to stick with 1L tomorrow morning and see how dry it is in the evening. I might have to start watering twice a day. With both girls looking happy, I decided it was the perfect time to get back into their bondage. I added an additional tie on each pot in order to correct my poor transplant job. They are now standing up straight after a little assistance! I also added in a raised drip tray. This will really assist me when I do have runoff without having the bag sitting in stale water. After a few hours I can see the new nodes already responding well to the LST and correcting their leaf placements. I think I'll be topping again by the end of next week or the very start of week 7. Over the week, I'm going to be tightening the ties to bring the branches closer to that 180 degree mark. I don't want to go too fast and snap anything. Day 37 - Still trying to dial in how much water I should be giving these girls. Only cut the water down to 1.5L each today as I thought the pot could take it. With these dry amendments, I don't want any and I've had runoff the past two days. I'm for sure giving 1L a try tomorrow. Very good response to yesterday's training. Day 38 - Woke up to some calcium deficiency spots. So far only affecting P1. After looking this issue over online, it also appears I have a magnesium deficiency on top of it. I read a little about needing to add CalMag sometime throughout the grow. I believe I'll need to get some Dolomite Lime and will need to top dress some into each pot. If P1 is showing signs, P2 has typically been a few days behind. It's only a matter of time before P2 starts showing the same signs. Lowered the water to 1L and there's still the smallest amount of runoff. Getting closer! I think .75L is going to be the winner. Day 39 - Watered .75L and got no runoff! Found the magic number! Spent today doing some research and I'm going to buy some Dolomite Lime tomorrow to help the CalMag issue. Maybe it's a mistake to not buy CALiMAGic but I want to keep this organic. I'm only going to top dress 1 tbsp/gal so each girl is getting 3 tbsp. I'll prob hold off tomorrow as the hydro store doesn't open till 11 and I water earlier in the morning than that. I could hold off but don't want to throw off their schedule. Top dressing will take place on Day 41. Each branch is getting really crowded even with training. They're both starting their 5th node and have enough stalk to leave a proper stump. Looks like I'll be topping first thing in the morning! Day 40 - Each girl got their 2nd topping and I removed their lower growth while I was at it. Watered .75L right after all the cutting was done. Now it's time to get back under the light for some much needed recovery. 12PM update -- Both are looking to have recovered from the chop! Leaves have perked back up and each set is back to taking in the light. Time to get their straps a bit more situated! Day 41 - Watered .75 L in the morning. New growth after topping looks really good! After a lot of looking online, I think the deficiencies I'm seeing is just from the original amendments running out it's course. Since I amended the new coco when I transplanted, the new roots will get plenty of food as it fills the pot. I need to figure out what day I'm going to re-amend each pot. I might do a reduced amendment to target the original 1 gal of medium. Day 42 - Watered .75 L in the morning and the new growth still looks really good!
