I feel like things are going well, I think Im closer to about 3 and a half weeks along. They took half a liter today each, after being a bit stingy watering the whole pot. It washed to the bottom of the tray but sucked it up in about 5 min.Top dressed with worm castings and put some planter trays so I could get a better Idea of the water is as I will need to start watering more and more. I feel they both are ready to take off this week or so. I don't expect them to get to awful huge. They are loving this light as much as I am, staying cool @ 75% and 30000 lux. They rebound from watering way quicker. Since this is my first grow I watch EVERYTHING like a hawk. The medium was pretty dry on the whole, I think the top dressing will help a lot as I will start to water the whole pot now.

The breeder (AutoSeeds) says they work better if you don't LST to much and focus on the main cola. Should I select a few of the large leaves and defoliate them to get more light in the middle. Just don't want to pick the wrong ones. Hope I have enough images to help you help me.

I wouldn't defoliat just yet, maybe some lst, tucking or I've seen people tie the big fan leaves together for a few hours a day to get light to lower growth. I've been defoliating like crazy (too much probably :) In the future I will do 2 big defoliations 1 beginning of flowering and another about 3 weeks into flowering. Remove the odd big leave here and there if blocking lights. I've grow from this breeder and started training I've of the plants very early age from it will. Doing a great job so far. Happy growing

I see clawing occur in one of your pictures (growdiaries.com/diaries/84476-auto-seeds-polar-express-grow-journal-by-ptrain which is a sign of Nitrogen overdose. I would check the balance with a nutrient ppm meter and flush the plants with Canna Flush .

Can you confirm this is a potassium deficiency? This happened after a flush of an amended soil (SoHum), please take into account before you answer. I do have some Down to Earth Organic White Azomite Powder OTW, just not sure how much to add yet.

Why did you flush if you don’t mind me asking? You shouldn’t have to flush an organic soil unless you have some big problems. If you didn’t have any issues before flushing, you’re most likely gonna have them now as flushing washes away beneficial microbes in your soil. These microbes are what breaks down the amendments and turns them into a usable nutrient for the plant. Without them, your plant will start to suffer. Also, azomite is great. I use it when amending my soil and in compost teas. It won’t really treat a deficiency but it’s great for trace minerals and as a “house” for microbes. Since you flushed the soil, I’d let it dry out completely and then give a compost tea to get those microbe populations back up. Check out www.composttealab.com for info and recipes.
