Mephisto Pink Livers #1 (LST)

Welcome back to my Mephisto Pink Livers grow! We're nearing the finish line! Day 56 - Height: 17" Strolling into week 9 with this girl and she's looking fantastic! She did start to develop the same calcium issues I had with my Creme Brûlée, so I started this week with a MASSIVE flush. Using plain water I measured the PPM of the runoff until it was down to within 400 of what I was putting in and then fed a very small dose of nutrients and began feeding again as per normal, alternating plain water and nutrients. It seems to have done a great job and halted any of the necrotic spots spreading, so I guess that was a great success. In future grows I'll definitely be keeping a closer eye on PPM to ensure I'm not overfeeding and causing lockouts, which I'm pretty sure is what was happening here, as my initial PPMs were over 2000. Otherwise this week has been easy, I took off all my wire that I used to train the shape and put a few bamboo stakes in to help hold up the branches which were starting to sag under the weight of the bud, which, for the record, is dense AF! She has also started really putting out a massive stink this week, its a weird, very sour, fruity skunk smell, pungent and sticky. I think this plant is going to be something pretty special! Day 61 - Height: 17" Starting to fade really fast now. She's well over the calcium problems and PPMs are stable in and out (1150 IN, 1225 OUT), but her leaves are hitting that natural late flower fade, turning yellow quite rapidly. I think she's got another two weeks in her, max. Trichomes are pretty much solid milky right now, so I'm basically just letting the buds get their final weight gain and chasing those ambers. She's been a great plant, but I'm quite looking forward to harvest because she is stinking my house out pretty badly... Thanks for reading, back next week for what will probably be one of the last updates before the chop I reckon! Grow well x
