WEEK 3 FLOWERING = 28/4/2023 (DAY 15 FLO) ---> 4/5/2023 (DAY 21 FLO)
[DAY 64 - 15° FLO] - 28/4/2023
⚡ - TS1000: 40 cm distance / 100% dimmer = 150 watt;
⌛ - 12/12 light cycle;
🌡️ - 27° C - 50% RH during light / 23° C - 58% RH during night;
📑 - PH 5.9 - EC 2.3 in DWC;
🍔 - For the third week of 12/12 I decided to decrease N a little and increase P and K: Micro 2ml/l, Grow 1.8 ml/l, Bloom 2 ml/l;
💧 - Solution in DWC is getting warmer: 22° C;
🥅 - I'm using the second SCROG net to even out the canopy. I bent the topmost branches and spread the branches further towards the sides of the box. The branches are still flexible enough to bend without issues;
🌱 - No marks on leaves, the plant has a nice green color. There are at least 30 flowering sites popping out of the second SCROG net. As already said, it's my first time with photoperiod and I don't know what to expect in terms of stretch, I'll try to manage it as best I can. ↕️ 43cm;
🔜 - Bought and mounted my new 3x3 tent. Next time I'll use that with my 2 TS1000!
[DAY 65 - 16° FLO] - 29/4/2023
🌡️ - 27° C - 55% RH during light / 23° C - 55% RH during night;
📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 2.3 in DWC;
💧 - Keeping an eye on the PH and EC values I noticed that in this 50 liter configuration the EC is very stable while the PH slowly drops day after day. I manage it don't using PH down when I top up. In this way I bring the PH levels to 6.1 and need to correct it after 3 or 4 days;
🌱 - Look at the day 65, done? Now go to last week and look at day 60. In 5 days the plant has filled the box again, amazing!
🌸 - Pre-flowers are forming, between tomorrow and the day after the flowering sites will be full of white pistils.
[DAY 66 - 17° FLO] - 30/4/2023
🌡️ - 26.5° C - 60% RH during light / 22.5° C - 57% RH during night;
📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 2.3 in DWC;
✂️ - Removed about 20 big fan leaves;
🌸 - Flowering sites are filling up with pistils.
[DAY 67 - 18° FLO] - 1/5/2023
🌡️ - 26° C - 64% RH during light / 21.5° C - 60% RH during night;
📑 - PH 6 - EC 2.3 in DWC;
🌸 - Pistils everywhere!
[DAY 68 - 19° FLO] - 2/5/2023
🌡️ - 26° C - 65% RH during light / 21° C - 65% RH during night;
📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 0.4 in DWC;
💧 - Flush for 24 hours, tomorrow she'll get full flower blend;
🌱 - Plant got 6 cm in the last 48 hours.
[DAY 69 - 20° FLO] - 3/5/2023
🌡️ - 26° C - 65% RH during light / 21° C - 65% RH during night;
📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 2.4 in DWC;
🍔 - After 20 days, DWC change: 40 LT flower blend. Silic (1ml/l) + CalMag (1ml/l) + Micro (2ml/l) + Grow (1ml/l) + Bloom (3ml/l) + Fulvic (1ml/l) + Atazyme (3ml/l). Added about 100ml Ph down Flower by Canna, to be honest I don't think it's very effective, I had to use a lot to lower the PH and I hope it's stable. Only plus side: is just phosphoric acid and is very useful in this phase!
💧 - Not a single dead root at the bottom of the DWC, I hope the old roots are at least rotting away. On the bright side, they're not causing any problems;
🌱 - Plant looks pretty fine, perhaps there is some slight light burn. I'll check tomorrow and, if necessary, raise the lamp by a few centimetres. The branches are still quite flexible but I have no more space to bend them 😅
[DAY 70 - 21° FLO] - 4/5/2023
🌡️ - 27° C - 60% RH during light / 22° C - 65% RH during night;
📑 - PH 6 - EC 2.4 in DWC;
🌱 - Week 3 flowering is done. Big change this week! I don't know if I'm talking bullsh*t, but since the switch I have noticed an important change in the leaves, they seem much thinner and longer, typical of Sativa dominant plants, and I like it!
