In the Last week now. Still running the tank from last week...just plain water top ups now. No feed being taken on at all so thinking I could drain the tank, rinse it and flush for the next couple of days.
Couple of buds getting light stressed shown by the fresh pistils (Even though all within PPFD/DLI - Yes, I bought a Lux Meter - Uni-T 383BT and PPFD Meter for Android).
Next update should be the chop! :)
Will be beginning next grow quick. Plan is Sweet Seeds 2x Red Hot Cookies and 2x Sweet Cherry Pie (Thanks for the testers @Sweet_Seeds). They're getting treated to my OCD with Light Tester, CO2 Monitor, IR Thermometer (ordered) to get VPD right and a GeekBeast Pro 630W LED winging its way from China as we speak (to be here on Tuesday latest!!!). Think this run dialled in the new feed (As there no 'Real World', 'sensible' feed strength charts out there for Botanicare kind an NO EFFIN WAY was I going to use their suggested EC's!!!).
Apart from that, happy growing all!!!! :)
** Update ** - trying a flush. Not pure tap water but close. Added 60ml pure blend tea, 50ml active boost, 50ml fulvic and 50ml Sensizym to a 50L tank. Probs add 5ml ATA Clean just to start to cleaning process too. Last days now!!! :)
@Ferenc, It was very good for the veg stage, I have to say. The Wedding Cake that went into it native has been as strong as an ox. No issues, not even a stretch with massive leaves...the Pink Kush and Strawberry Lemonade did go 18/6 for a week or 2 before I went 6/2 for heat management (I will do all grows going forward 6/2 btw) and they were stretchy on the flip.
@@hillman, Dude, no joke...pre-planned it 3 months in advance before I had even bought the nutes. I was pretty spot on with the numbers (give or take maybe 1-2 ml for ease. This week should have been Base 80, Grow 32 and Bloom 64 but the round down and up on the grow/bloom just a bit easier hitting the number in the grad cylinders!!!) and hitting the EC's i expected. Have an excel calc made up for the kind range now myself! :) and happy to see they are growing well and are showing no signs of burn or deficiency from the plan!
Tank change tonight...they drinking at least 5L a day now the 4 of them so this is the highest EC they receive this week (unless I go against what I was thinking of doing and adding a PK9/18 booster in on week 4 which will spike them up some more).
@GMSgrows, Using a Torus Hydro in the tank...I set it to 6 and it auto swings the pH between 5.8 to 6.2 so as the plant can get what it needs as it needs it. Dont know if I should go with the very light feed plan this coming thursday (Still have this weeks stuff to upload, about to do it now) or go with the Shogun Dragon Force. 2-3 of the plants flowers hairs have all contracted and looking like on the last stage of ripening while the Strawberry Lemonade still got some white hairy flowers!
Looking good and progressing very nicely !! Good luck with the grow !

Also… I have a lots of growing tips on my profile page (comments section)
Edit - Added PK Warrior in the end, but very little compared to recommended...added at 0.2ml/L as opposed to the 0.5-1ml/L (1ml/L usually used the 1st week [week 4] and then 0.5 for the following 3 weeks).
