Purple Lemonade Autoflower by FastBuds

Beginning of week... I went ahead and gave the medium a little bit of a flush today. Finally figured that its gonna take 3L to get a decent amount of runoff.. Seems to dry out pretty fast too.. Might need to water daily.. For sure every other day, if not. I know that I shouldn't water the entire medium when she's this young because the roots dont go out that much, but the medium was a bitch to get wet.. Literally took about a week.. But she is doing great.. Her stems are giving out purples! I know seedlings tend to do that.. But I've never seen damnnear all the stems purple. I can't really get a pic of it cuz my camera/phone sucks.. But trust me, it's there lol. Gorgeous plant! Mid week.. So I've been watering once daily.. One day I will give nutes and the next just plain pH'd water.. So basically just water, feed, water, feed.. This is to avoid the dreaded salt build-ups! Today was just water but the runoff came out at like 700 PPM.. I never even put that much in! This shouldnt be an issue.. I need a better watering can. Just been using 1L bottles woth a screw on sprinkler head.. Its not a bad idea.. Especially for smaller grows.. But I'm going to get a 1 gallon watering can with a sprinkler head.. It should help me be able to spread the water out more evenly across the entire medium. But that 1L bottle with the srinkler cap is perfect for my other nano grow I got going ("*TC* created my own feminized strain" diary). But going to Home Depot today to get that new watering can.. I like the idea of the sprayer jugs.. But those things take like an hour to use up a gallon.. I love spending time with my girls, but damn! Lol.. But as for the lady.. She is doing great! Not sure why the leaves almost ALWAYS get kinda wavy.. I think I read that it MAY have something to do with calcium deficiency.. But I dont understand how that would be possible. I keep the pH at 6.3 (even the runoff comes out a 6.3) and I know I'm putting PLENTY of CALiMAGic.. maybe it's just the way these plants grow.. Its only the first 2 or 3 sets of leaves that do it.. Just weirds me out a little.. She is beginning to sprout some little branches! So excited! I can't wait to bend her over and start some LST!!! She is very happy and super healthy! By the end of this week the next set of leaves should be pretty big and I'm sure branches will be shootin out too! So happy! 😊 Next day... So she still looks great.. No burns, no deficiencies.. But I went ahead and just gave a little dose of Silica and a little CalMag.. Cuz the PPM was coming out at 700 PPM yesterday.. It was 6.3 pH and 300 PPM going in.. But the runoff still came out at 700 PPM.. Wtf.. I need to get a better watering can.. So I can at least start running a gallon thru the medium.. I'm gonna just leave it for now, I suppose. Gonna try and get a watering can tonight... Hopefully.. But she is still growing nicely and looking nice and green, so I guess I can't complain too much. Almost end of week.. I'm starting to think I need to raise my light up or turn the power down a bit.. My plants almost always stay very short and stout to where it makes it difficult to begin LST.. Its obviously too early to be trying it now.. But just something I've been thinking lately.. Help save some electricity too.. Oh yeah, so I got a new Mars Hydro TS 1000 and I noticed that some of the reds (not deep reds) are a little dim.. Almost as dim as the deep reds.. There should only be 2 deep reds, but at 50% power it looks like at least 5 or 6 of the reds are a little dull or not as bright as the others.. At 100% its kinda hard to see but that's expected cuz its bright as fuck lol.. Idk.. I could just be tripping.. But it shouldnt hurt anything.. I hope. But as for the girly.. She's doing great.. Just ordered some FloraKleen to help with major salt build-ups and to help with the pre-harvest flush.. But so far, not major salt build-ups.. Nothing I had to put her into the sink and go crazy with the shower head for at least lol.. But she's happy and perfectly healthy as far as I can tell.. I love growing cannabis!!! It's soothing to the soul.. Being one with nature.. I've even sprouted a cantaloupe in my tent lol.. Gonna see if I can keep it in there and harvest some fruit! I wanna get some morning glory and have it running up the tent and then when its time to flower a photoperiod, it will produce some gorgeous flowers along with the cannabis flower.. Just a thought I've had.. Will be updating with pics tomorrow! Cant wait till next week! That's when the exploding growth happens!!! End of week.. Today was just a plain pH'd water day.. Going in: 6.2 pH at 240 PPM.. Runoff: 6.0 pH at 500 PPM.. With my luck, the moment I was finished, Amazon dropped off the FloraKleen (and some trellis netting).. I dont think FloraKleen is meant to be used in between feedings like that tho.. Unless the runoff PPM is just outrageous, I'm not gonna use the FloraKleen.. But it is a great addition to the Flora family! Lol.. Anyways.. I noticed 2 pistils/calyxes (preflower) already.. They are both at the same node, but opposite sides of the main stem.. I hope she still has at least 2 more weeks of veg before flowering.. 3 weeks would be perfect and ideal.. But I can work with 2.. But she is happy.. So I'm happy! On to the next!!!...
