Mon - Start of week 7. Just watered and fed the plants. Finally got around to leveling the plants off so they can all share the same level of light. Last week was the first full week of stretch, they almost doubled in size. They now are about 22", 16" 10.5" and 8" It will be interesting to see how much more they grow. Wed. - Noticed a bit of yellow and brown spots on leaves of all plants, none in newer growth, all in the bottom 1/3rd of the plants. I suspect that the PH recommend by the CANNA feeding schedule 5.8 - 6.2 might be a little low causing PH lockout. I suppose this could be an actual Mag or Cal deficiency but as I use tap water left out for 48+ hours, and my water has a moderate hardness I do not think I need to add anything, just get PH up to the 6.3 - 6.8 range. I watered today with no nuts just with PH 6.5 water. Will keep an eye out for new spots. I am photoing the plants and studying them to see if there are any new ones. Friday - Fed with nutes in 6.5PH water. Plants still growing at 1 to 2 inches per day. Not positive but it seems the signs of Calcium deficiency are still there, noticing more brown/ yellow spots. I believe the PH is under control at this point, so I can only assume the issue is an actual calcium deficiency. Will add some Cal/Mag at next watering. Sun - End of the week, watered with no nutes, only Cal/Mag at 1.3 tsp per gal. Fri - Did not notice new spots, plants are still growing at about an 1 - 2 inches a day. Fed with PH 6.5 nutes per schedule.

When limiting my primary nutrients, (Canna Terra Flora) to prevent overfeeding, should I also limit the secondary nutrients (Rhizotonic, Cannazym, Canna Boost) or feed those per the Canna schedule each time I water? I currently only use them when I feed on every 2nd or 3rd water

I think its safe to remove the rhizo. Definitwlt continue the Flores because it also contained the trace elements needed. Keep the zyme and boost are entirely up to you, perhaps only using them once per weeks would be good. But I think it'll be alright to remove them soon, unless you choose otherwise. Did I see a small amount of yellowed leaves on the back left plant on the very bottom? If so you may want some cal mag in there or it may be that one received a slightly higher dose than the others did, or needs a good flush. Best of luck the plants look pretty dang good thus far. Congrats on making it into flowering.

This one was a bit rough. I thought the purpling was a bad thing, a symptom of phosphorous deficiency. I count this as a success, I got a big enough yield to make through the next grow. :)

Thanks for the info, I knew about the trichomes but I had no idea the buds fatten up that much at the end. I harvested when they are about 80% cloudy, I wanted the strains to lean a bit to heady side. Maybe another week would have given me more yield with no major change in the trics.

Thanks for the advice, I am battling the rise in temps during the day now that summer is coming. I have been dreading putting an AC in that room, but I might have to.

Looking good, I see what you mean about week 2; You should end up with some pretty good yield for the size with those lights. How big is the tent?

happy harvests again, and yeah the adage -- idk how accurate -- is that you get 1/3 of your weight in the last two weeks.

next time flower at least 9 weeks for most strains, theres a handfull that are 60 days which is still 8 and a half weeks, buds fill out the most the last 2 weeks, up to 33%, and I veg for 5 weeks, but thats up to the grower, just make sure you flower as long as the strain says and.. youll get the full buds remember AMBER trichomes for stones cloudy trichomes for psychedelic.. but at least let them get cloudy.. but a good general rule is go the flowering time the seed bank suggests.. if you dont know the seed bank, do research on the strain and use the average flowering time.. hope you get some Chronic next time,, good luck

Looking good! They'd probably appreciate a few C drop in peak temperatures, especially as the grow goes on. They get all sensitive. They're really healthy and I think you're going to be quite happy =)
