First Grow!

D26 (17/12/2020): New week, new challenge. I think I fed too much nutrients. They seem to have nutrient burn on leaves but it's tough to tell the difference between this and the damage that the bugs caused. Where the plant was already hurt (yellow spot) the same spot got bigger. I will check PH and PPM of the run off (never did that). - temp: 26C - no water - RH: 55% D27 (18/12/2020): I flushed my plant and test the run off. My soil was wayyyy too ''HOT''! I should have done this before. I never fed enough to let water run off in the saucer pan. The PH was good at 6.3-6.4 but PPM was at 2370 for Banana Kush and 2060 for Glue Gelato 😳... 😅 It was about time to check that! I flushed once, waited 20min and then flushed a second time. I checked 3X the run off during the process and the third time PPM was at 1050 for Banana Kush and 950 for Glue Gelato. I'm not sure if I'll do another flush tomorrow or in two days but they definitely need another one. I also defoliated all the big fan leaf at the bottom of the plant. They were the most affected by the bugs and I want my plants to focus on growing new leaves aka buds site. I was in pain yesterday after dropping a bottle of shampoo on my Glue Gelato during the flush (I did it in my shower). It cause damage to the main branch 😭. I taped the branch with a small band aid of electric tape, will see how she recover from this... ***Update on bugs*** After more research it was not Thrips but Fungus Gnats larvae. Anyway they also cause damage. First good news is I did not see any larvae since the second insecticidal soap wash I did 2 days ago and the new leaves don't seem to be affected. Removing 1 inch of the soil probably help to. I should have done this as soon as I saw larvae. Second good news is the nematodes I bought are also effective on Fungus Gnats 💪 - temp: 26C - water used for flush: PH6.5 approx. 2L per plant for the first flush. For the second, I only add around 0.25-0.5L and wait to have dripping water in the saucer pan. - RH: 55% D28 (19/12/2020): Banana Kush is officially in pre flower 😍. Glue Gelato also look in pre flower but it's not as obvious, I'm not sure. I will finish this week as 4th week of veg and will switch for flower next week. I did some more defoliation by removing leaves under that will never grow and continued LST. They are really short and bushy. I think it's due to all the stress they had since beginning but they look healthy and still growing so I can't ask better for my first grow! - temp: 26C - no water - RH: 55% D29 (20/12/2020): Both are officially in pre flower 😍😍. Nothing special today. I decided to stop LST for now and let them stretch. I'm just tucking leaves. The light is at 30inch from plants cause I was tired of always readjust it to be at 28inch. - temp: 24C - no water - RH: 54% D30 (21/12/2020): (1 month of grow) I did flush again 2X today exactly like D27. The run off is at 850 PPM and PH6.5. - temp: 24C - water used for flush: PH6.5, approx. 3L, 125 PPM - RH: 55% D31 (22/12/2020): Everything is growing fast. I think I wait a bit to long between feeding. They really growth in the last 24h after giving water. I saw more larvae today.. -temp: 25C - no water - RH: 54% D32 (23/12/2020): I removed leaves under the canopy that was not receiving light. - temp: 25C - no water - RH: 54%
