Good start. Still early. The ongoing goal for this grow is learning to better control ph, temp and humidity.

Coming along well. Looking a little stressed right after moving to new pots. Once they look a little better I'm thinking i'll start nutrient feeding.

Starting to trim some of the lower leaves. Keeping the LST going, seen somewhere and would like to work it into a spiral pattern. Thinking about getting a humidifier since the humidity drops below 30 if the vent fan is left on.

several leaves getting yellow at the tips. have not made any major changes to the environment in over 2 weeks. Water ph is 6.3. I am leaning towards under watering since the bigger of the 2 seems more affected. How would a more experienced grower proceed?

Hey friend, yes it looks like nutrient burn( burn tips) to me.As I can see you are growing in soil.So you don’t need to use alot of nutrient in vegetative stage.Soil got your back.Always try with 1/4 of description amount when growing soil.Save your nute to boost in flowering stage.Happy growing... ✌️

Very eventful week, leaves showing signs of nutrient burn. Had some help figuring that one out, thanks @Burmese. Cut back nutrients and watered a little on the heavy side things are looking good. The LST is starting to become more of a craft requiring skill or at least experience as these continue to stretch. I may need to rethink the original strategy for that. Also added a Co² bag to the tent. I am planning more pruning in the next few days, just trying to give them some time after the nutrient burn in incident. Overall wasn't the greatest week but still very very excited moving forward since they look very good compared to my 1st grow that was all stretch and no bush.

Lots of trimming this week, Planning to start flower cycle next week. They are starting to increase their water intake doubled in the last 2 weeks. Started to notice first signs of odor when walking in the room with them. I'm personally really happy with the way they are turning out, would love to hear the thoughts of others on how they look at this stage. The plan for next week is to change the light schedule, I'm thinking 13/11 not sure if there is any evidence that slightly more light than 12/12 may yield bigger or healthier buds. I will also be switching nutrients from fox farm "grow big" to fox farm "tiger bloom" will probably do that a few days after the lights change. I just gave them a pretty thorough trim job and retied the branches, so until next week i will probably take it easy on them so they can recover before flowering.

At 7 weeks veg in a 3 gallon pot I'm thinking I've gotta be getting close on root space. New bigger cloth pots are on the way, will be switching lights to 13/11 after transplant. Plan to continue defoliation and LST throughout flowering phase until near harvest time. Slowly eased away from veg nutrients and starting Fox Farm "Tiger Bloom" today.
