- Water changed
- Interior of water tank was slimey, probably from algae
- TDS is a little high but hopefully since there are a few leaves on the plant it will be ok with it. I'll have to watch for nitrogen burn.
- I had to use A LOT of pH down to get the water from 7.16 to 6.00
- Using city water, my TDS is about 200ppm higher than I expected
- 2 inch tap root is present down to the water level
- Growth is great!
- No discolored leaves
- pH is trending down quite quickly, adjusted once this morning and again after work
- Start of week two on the grow guide
- A couple leaf tips are curled in wards, no discoloration
- Some leaves have a curled in ward slant, no discoloration
- Could be potassium deficiency but there's no discoloration
- Very little undergrowth compared to Cinderella 99
- Looks very healthy but sparse
- Water usage increased
- Canopy seems to be stretching, could indicate flowering behavior
- Added extra nutrients on last day to keep TDS up before water change
- Flowers are sprouting from lots of places
- Massive nutrient uptake
- Grew 3 inches and hit the light on the AreoGarden
- Used the tomato cage to spread the stems out so the growth could continue above the light
- Some light trimming
- Trimmed some branches to keep the plant spread in check
- Upward growth has slowed
- Growth is continuing past the light where possible
- Adjusted stems outside of tomato cage to allow them to grow up past the light. There is nothing touching the light now.
- Flowers are filling out
- Suspected ph sensor was out of calibration, reading higher than actual
- Recalibrated ph and tds sensors
- ph validated with liquid tester
- Noticed the air stone is buried, un-retrievable from under the root mat
I have a very small space bucket type setup (24" from deck to the bottom of the light) which was probably about 6 inches too short to do this strain properly. Some of the flowers and the leaves got cooked when they got too close to the light. I was able to route the plant around the light to allow it to continue growing past the light. On top of that, once the seed germinates and the 8 week timer starts you really can't afford to train the plant very much like I did with a Cinderella 99. The plant was hardy and grew very quickly. I had no issues with nutrient burn, fungus or insects as this was an indoor grow in a low humidity location.
It had very little "under brush" like the C99 did, in comparison it seemed quite sparse but did produce a decent yeild. I have no complaints about it.
I would encourage anyone to give this a try.
I enjoyed growing it. I really like GrowDiaries but I wish you allowed for daily input rather than just weekly. I've found my hydroponics setup requires about 10 mins / day of maintenance and I record my pH, TDS, air temp, air humidity and water temperature at supper time each day.
