recieved clone and did LST the next day. Clone has some yellowing on lower fan leaves when i go tit. A couple of lower fan leaves developed a rusty spot. Possible calcium is low. added cal mag on my first feeding. (generally will add that when just watering) but i wanted to give it a boost and see how it responded.

Based on some advice I decided to repot the plant, even though the person I got it from said I wouldn't need to. When I checked the bottom there were already a couple of roots coming out of the drain holes. Repotted into a 7 gallon fabric bag with Fox Farms Ocean soil mixed with a little perlite. This week we also added a new humidifier with a humidistat on it so I didnt have to keep running upstairs every hour to check it. Well worth the money!! PPM is super high because, as i found out, the Fox Farm soil has micronutrients in it that will cause the high reading. No feeding for a month from here. Just a little calmag.

Big jump in size this week. Plant really seemed to take to the new soil. Constant LST to keep that new growth coming. Am learning about how the plant was grown. I Recieved the plant grown off center so It could be pulled down to one side. I now see that this causes lots of new branching from the main stem. Havent topped it once yet and still have what I think will turn out to be many healthy stalks. Not much to do what with no nutes being added. I still sit and stare at her for hours.

Installed the scrog netting. Place it 10" above the canopy. Built from PVC pipe and string for around $15. There are just a couple leaves touching at this point. Will start weaving the plant outwards for the next 2 weeks before switching to flowering. Still just a touch of calmag as I wait for the ppm to drop so I can start feeding again. Plant looks super healthy. I cant see ANY signs of problems so far. Have the ability to add a net higher up to support buds depending on how it grows.

I started in unknown soil but repotted into in Fox Farms ocean forest 2 weeks ago. Will watching the PPM in my runoff tell me when I should start feeding again? Or should I just wait the month as suggested and start then?

The soil PPM sometime could be higher than normal if you are growing in super soil. Unlike growing hydroponic, It is also very forgiving when it comes to ppm. If you are going for bottles to feed the plants, the dose should be significantly lower than normal feed.
