***** Week 11 growth - February 13 to 19, 2021 - Week 2 Flower *****
This girl is looking very nice but she is the shortest of the bunch. She has not growing out as wide and tall as the other girls in the tent but that could have changed with an extra week of Veg. 8 weeks from seed was quite quick to throw a girl into flower so itβs all good.....just noting itππ
2nd SCROG layer in now....finallyπ Lots of work to do in cleaning up the lower leaves next week. Will do larger leaf strip and lolipoping when they start focusing more on bud development.
Light is at 24β only pulling 310 watt, and the meter at the tops of the girls is roughly 28,500LUX. It is feeling like itβs a little strong for them but itβs close......the curling leaves is slowly increasing on the tops. By the end of the week we are at 400watts and reading 38,500LUX, this should be roughly 980 umol/s/m2.......over 900 and less than 1,000.......should be good for going into week 3.
Nutrients switched over to flower schedule and following week 2.....but so-called back a couple of items. Adding some other items beyond IPP line so backing off some of the ppm to compensate. Still only one βfeedingβ per week. Early flower so hitting the microbes a little harder this week and next and then slowly start backing off. I like Remoβs Natures Candy for sweetener because it has humic, sweetener and old school molasses, amongst other things to feed the microbes as they are in coco. Bud Fusion being used now for pk boost.........no more βred kool-aidβπ Still adding Rezin from Green Planet becuase it seems to boost my trichome quantity.....Terpinator likely this week as well......increase some of the sulfer to increase aromas.
Little more detail.......
Feb 13/21 - Day 8
- 3.5L watering with CalMag @ 1ml, Natureβs Candy @ 1ml, Resin @ 1.5ml
Feb 14/21 - Day 9

- watering with microbes only today. Recharge has some molasses in it so just adding that.
- 4L water for these girls with Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal
- 320ppm and 6.0pH
Feb 15/21 - Day 10
- today is big feed day....its been 7 days.
- 3L each girl with all the IPP line as listed plus silica @ 1ml, Natureβs Candy @ 1ml. (Bud Fusion was 0.2gr/L)
- 1325ppm and 6.0pH
- Girls gave run off at 3L today so didnβt push past that.
Feb 16/21 - Day 11
- some feed left from yesterday so added 6L of plain water to dilute it and watered into the girls tonight.
- 3L full feed of nutrients for each girl
- 800ppm and 6.1pH
Feb 17/21 - Day 12
- 3L each girl with Terpinator and CalMag @ 2ml, Natureβs Candy @ 1ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal
- 775ppm and 6.1pH
- increased light power to 350 watts. Now at 32,500LUX.......take it slow over the next week and keep creeping up. Leaves have a bit of a taco shape coming out and looking fairly serrated at the edges.....pushing the light intensity on the topsπ
- leaf colour on the girls is very good......tips are not burnt either.
Feb 18/21 - Day 13
-3L each girl of plain water today
- added beneficial bacteria and enzymes @ 1.5ml
- 330ppm and 5.9pH
- was looking for a little lower pH as I have not been checking runoff.
- have to do a leaf strip this weekend......start of week 3.
- light power increased again, 400 watts now.
Feb 19/21 - Day 14
- day out day.......they have not had one in a bit.
- humidity was higher today as door to grow room closed today to assist clones with more humidity.
So that takes us through two weeks of flower now. Not knowing this strain enough yet, I suspect feeding will stop at the end of week 6. That leaves four more weeks. I will treat the next two weeks like mid flower for nutes, and the following two weeks as late flower. Feed supplements accordingly. She is a nice plant and looking forward to seeing how her buds form. Looking good ETS!
Hey man, what brand name and model is that humidifier? Low humidity is my biggest problem. Have used two different humidifiers that don't do shit. Nice plants!
@Ronald64, Its was from typical box store. "Air Care Aurora Ultrasonic Multi-Colour LED Humidifier & Aroma Diffuser"
Works alright. When exhaust going though and depending on canopy, trying to keep mid 60 to 70% then I have to run two humidifiers in the tent to keep up.
