Poison is the Antidote

Week 10! This is our first official week of flower! New for this week, we'll be introducing bloom nutrients and we've changed our pH adjusters to a "natural" product that's meant to work better for living soil. We don't plan to do much to the plants this week, as we want to minimize any stress while they transition to flower. Day 64 (day 4 of flower): - increased our main light intensity from 55% to 60%. - plants are receiving between 22,000 - 26,000 LUX across canopy. Day 65 (day 5 of flower): - Plant #1 is starting to stretch. Plant #2 has not yet shown much stretching. - Plant #2 feeling a bit more dry (by pot weight) but we'll wait until tomorrow to water. Day 66 (day 6 of flower): - watered Plant #2 only, with dechlorinated tap water with: .5ml/L of BioBizz's "Bio-Grow", "Bio-Bloom" & "Top-Max", 1ml/L of "Acti-Vera", .5ml/L of Remo Nutrients' "Velokelp" .25ml/L of General Hydronics' "CALiMAGic" - This resulted in a 430ppm nutrient solution, pH adjusted to 6.4. - Runoff levels for Plant #2 were 2430ppm & a pH of 6.7. We might like to see the pH a tiny bit lower and normally, when not growing with organic nutrients, we'd consider 2400ppm to be very high... but we've been told that it's not uncommon to have runoff ppm's between 2-3,000 with organics in soil. We didn't bother to flush additional water through the pot, watering until approximately 2-3L of runoff was collected. Day 67 (day 7 of flower): - no changes - Temp: 69-79F; RH: 56-62% Day 68 (day 8 of flower): - defoliated small side branches from Plant #1 - increased light intensity from 60% to 65% Day 69 (day 9 of flower): - watered Plant #1 with dechlorinated tap water mixed with: 1ml/L of BioBizz's "Acti-vera", .5ml/L of BioBizz's "Bio-Grow", "Bio-Bloom" & "Top-Max", .5ml/L of Remo Nutrients' "VeloKelp" and .25ml/L of General Hydroponics' "CALiMAGic". This resulted in a 280ppm solution, pH 6.5. - watered to runoff. Runoff tests came back at 1,950ppm, pH 6.7. Day 70 (day 10 of flower): - no changes
