WEEK 5 VEG
See WEEK 1 VEG for details of Stock Solution A & B
Nice growth this week! I bumped up the Cal-Mag by 1mL per gallon. Some of the leaf petioles (the piece between the leaf and main stem) were turning a little purple on their upper sides (bottom still green).
Speaking of petioles...these girls have some long ones! I selectively pruned out some fan leaves, to expose the future bud sites to the light. Pictures 7 thru 11 show how much more light is now penetrating the plants. I continue to bend down the plants daily. At this weeks end, I dumped the reservoirs (pH 6.7 and 760 ppm), and replaced a new batch with pH 5.7 and 750 ppm for the upcoming week.
So far, I am enjoying the results and ease of this growing style. I hope this trend continues 😀. Plus no F*ck'n Fungus Gnats!!!!😁.
Thanks for Viewing,
Peace,
