OG Everglade -- Day 61
Overall status: Excellent... super dank, super sticking. I want to crank the lights up but it will make P. Runtz suffer with light bleaching again. OG Everglades is grand champin' still ever since emergence. Phenomenal plant to grow!
Pineapple Runtz Ibl--- Day 54
Overall status: Very Good.... due to the top cola stretching pass the light itself, I moved the light as high as it physically can go in the tent with the pully strings. Grew pass that, had to go higher, jamming the inline exhaust into ceiling and still wasn't enough. Was less than 2in from led lights, causing light bleaching and tocoing. Used shoe string to pull cola over. Bottom 2/3 is fine and green. Root system not a luscious as OG's. Again, warm water devastated P. Runtz early life, but it is flourishing now still.
Started using supplemental lighting to help grow some of that baby bud larf fuller. I dont like chopping off main branches from trunk. The baby bud stems on P. Runtz are attached to trunk. Direct nute uptake, no need to trim off.
Within 24 hrs, had to feed twice bc 227 ppm was consumed. 127 within 12 hrs and 100 within 8hrs. Woke up today and feed them a 3rd time this week bc ppm dropped bleow 200 again smh. Prefer feeding multiple times a week (3 max) at 400-425 ppm instead of having a high ppm of 600 (E.C. 1.2) or higher. Autos don't like ppm pass 550 that i grow and thats during flowering stretch. I'll be in the room for 20 mins and watch ppm drop by 10. Doing that 16 hr flush due to salt build up and biofilm from hydrozyme and hydroguard. Had to leech out the cations bc plants stopped uptaking for 4 days. Had a heavy bloom mix they did not like. Heavy florabloom caused orange/yellowish stain spots on roots. When in doubt, feed often but less. I did the flush bc the ph was dropping from 6.0 to 4.8 over night, ppm rising. Nute lockout or cations being excreted from roots due to heavy uptake of bloom nutes
All is good in the hood. Happy grows 🌲🔥💨
