Day 43: Week 7 off to a good start. Watered with just PH’d water. The soil PH is reading 7.0 so I’m bringing the water/feeds closer to 6.0 to try bring it down a bit. Took nearly 4ltrs again. Moved around another 5 cm away from light, just to be safe. I only have around 20cm left to play with so hopefully it doesn’t get much taller.
Day 45: Watered with nutrients (1ml SR, 5ml B) with PH @ 6.3. Took 3ltrs. I measured the PH of run off and it’s reading 7.0. It’s fairly dark down below the canopy and I want to give the plant a break from me clipping leaves off so I’ve added in one 23watt Warm White (2700k) standard home CFL bulb down low. I don’t know how much it will help but it won’t hurt so no harm in sticking it in.
Day 47: Watered with nutrients (1ml SR, 5ml B). Took 3ltrs, run off measured at 7.0. Plant looks happy and healthy which is great considering how much defoliation I’m having to do. I’m thinking now that two 9ltr pots might be too big for my space.
Day 49: Seven weeks old today and looking happy and healthy. Watered with nutrients and added Green Sensation to the feed (1ml SR, 1ml GS, 2ml B). Plant grew 10cm this week. I think the main stretch is over now.
