1stGrow-Cheese & Super Lemon Haze Autos

Day 52 - The last few days have been a big eye-opener. The babies were drinking alot, so I did what I said I wouldn't do and I gave them both way too big of a feeding. What happened? 1.humidity and temperature were the worst to keep track of, because cold we pots were sitting at the bottom of the tent. Not a huge deal, but annyoing. 2.Pretty sure I flushed a bunch of nutrients out of the medium, which opened up the plants to a burn. They were both a little too close to the light and it was turned up a bit high, so after moving it and turning it down, the burn doesn't seem to be getting worse, but I'm reminded of my failure by all of the little yellow leaf tips everywhere. 3.FUNGUS GNATS. I developed a nice little gathering of fungus gnats, but not just in my pot plants, but ALL OF MY HOUSE PLANTS! Again, it's fine now, as I put yellow sticky traps around every plant in my house and just to be sure I let them all dry out (pot plants included) and watered them with a 1:4 hydrogen peroxide/clean ph'd water mix. Probably wasn't necessary, but I didn't want to chance having gnats all over my house. I'm seeing less and less of them in the traps now, so I feel like the problem is starting to dissipate. In closing... everything seems okay now, but for anyone new to growing, listen to what everyone on here says and don't overwater! Waiting until the pots dry out is important and it keeps you on track, but less water in the pots per feeding is way less of a hassle than too much, so don't push it. On top of the peroxide bath, I also added some top dressing to each pot. Unrelated to the overwatering, as the soil had just compacted in the pots and some roots were showing. Day 53 - Now that all of the housekeeping is out of the way, the kids are looking great, and smelling great too! Although the SLH has a longer flower time, it's slowly got to some bud production now in week 8, so I think I definitely slowed her down with the LST Break in week five. Either way, I continue to be confident in my first grow and I think it's going to be a good harvest when the time comes! End of week 8 - Learning lots. By the looks of it, the burn the kids are experiencing is due to ph and nutrient lockout. There is also the possibility that there's some nitrogen excess, so for week 9 I will be lowering my ph values and dropping the gro formula from the nutrient mix. There's still nitrogen in the calmag, so it will still get it, just not as much. The nutrient schedule I've been using looks like it may be more set up for photos and not autos, so I will be skipping a week to increase my ppm values to suit the stage the plants are at. I realize this may be risky with the burn they are already experiencing, but I've been paying close attention and I think this is the best way to get to harvest. Time will tell. In the coming week I will be asking you all for assistance, as I think I'm close to flush time for the cheese plant, but I'm kind of unsure as to when I should start. Any input would be extremely helpful. On to week 9!
