They're doing great the short one endured a rootball collapse during transplant... atleast she survived it. So I bumped their ph from 5.5 to 6 and started a dose of big girl food 300 ppm I just did a ring around the outside to promote further root development. Hopefully it wasn't to strong I only gave one 300ml so I'll judge how she takes it and then her sisters will get it too. They took a couple feedings of that well so I've bumped them upto 505ppm 5ml grow 5ml cal 3ml silica 2ml hydro guard per gallon @ 6.0ph added 1.5ml of a fulvic/humic/seaweed solution.

Starting third week of veg today, they're doing incredible! Bumped my ppm upto 525 from 450 and they are happy with it. So I've definately learned a few things this being my third round since I started growing late October. It's really cool to see what a t5 close, medium, and far do for the plant. Once you get to know it you can tailor how fat your trunks are and how quick your side shoots come up, Love the t5's Topped them an hour ago, well I think I fim'ed one which Is fine, they're filling out nice and growing like weeds 😄 Lst maxxed on them, bumped ppm upto 700 one of them smells very strong of baked nutmeg and a hint of ginger I'm so excited to experience the hype.

Great week, decided to do some kushman chiropractics today and bent them all over. They are actually day 4 into the 4th week. Their smells are out of this world I'm so excited for these. I've been working on a legit room in the garage I hope to have it finished in a couple weeks. I've been trying to do a perpetual harvest since my first grow.... definitely learning how difficult that actually is. They've recovered nicely! And I decided to bend a few more down.

Thought the 2x4 would suffice for veg and I think it would if I could get my cycles down pat. Working towards a perpetual grow. Being a newb there is definately a curve I need to get down pat. The girls are doing very well, and smelling incredible.I decided to drop the t5 down closer to slow them down a bit and it will also cause the side shoots to even up. So hopefully in the next month the flower area is opened up for them!

Got them out of the 2×4 put some real light on em working to stabilize their out of tent environment, not as easy as I thought it would be. In a garage and a place where the weather sways extreme. I topped all the side shoots 2 days ago and tied a couple more down. I flushed them last night with 6ph RO water so between the topping and the flush they're a bit unhappy. They needed it, not even going to mention what the runoff ppm was 😄 I've learned so much since October these girls will be the (third times the charm)

Well after a bit of over zealous feeding they're bouncing back after a couple flushes. Ready to move these girls into flower mover over sour jack!
