First Grow

Day 15 - (1/22/21) Watered with the remaining water with calimagic in my sprayer from yesterday to try to boost their calcium & magnesium. As I said in last week's diary, I definitely was not giving them enough calimagic and waited too long to give them their nutrients. Lesson learned and they are already looking better! Day 16 - (1/23/21) forgot to take pics oops! Day 17 - (1/24/21) Watered with nutrients. Also increased the length of time the humidifier runs since its been extra cold the last few days and our furnace is drying the whole house out. Day 19 - (1/26/21) Watered with calimagic. I think I'm overwatering a bit but I'm trying my best to get these guys caught up on their calmag. Also checked the run off ppm and ph for the first time; 1300ppm and approx 6.2 ph across all 3 plants. PPM seems high but I didn't check what it was when I watered with nutrients on Sunday. PH hasn't changed at all which is a good sign. Day 20 - (1/27/21) Watered with calimagic. Did some more research last night and it seems like it's okay to water them with nutrients every day. I will probably start doing that tomorrow morning. I also started misting the plants with calimagic water since they can absorb calcium through their leaves. The runoff ppm is still high but I'm not worrying about it since it doesn't seem to be a huge deal. Day 21 - (1/28/21) Watered with nutrients, approx 620 ppm. I decided to water them until their runoff was only around 300 ppm more than the nutrient water (less than 1000 ppm). My first check of the runoff was around 1300ppm and it took approx an extra 1/3 gallon of nutrient water to get all plants below 1000ppm. Also, they are starting to smell a bit especially when I manhandle them.
