818I headband-afgoo-power kush-critical kush

So moments ago I found my camera hdmi cord I've been looking for, for weeks. It was in my laundry basket, I'm pumped! Anyways I have the 4 cuts in 7 gal pots in a 4x4 tent with 8 bulb t5. They'll be moving into a 5x5 under a 1000w hps this weekend. I'm using dyna gro foliage pro right now in veg along with protekt,sea kelp,floral nector, and mycorrhizae. Few them are close or past 2 ft now. I'll post a pics starting of the week of 8/5.

Forgot to mention the power kush could be a cheese or a different pheno of critical kush. My buddy who I got the clones from doesn't label his shite. He's also stoned most of the time. Said it looks like a power kush though so I'm going with that.

Keep doing what you're doing and you'll be very happy come harvest. Well done!

Thanks man. I have a good feeling about this run. I've drawing out several diagrams on different ways to run co2 in a tent. Tricky. Came up with inline fan blowing through hood. During lights on co2 is cranking 30 mins out of each hour. Another fan n filter is on 30mins out of the hour when exhausting tent when co2 is off, each in 15min increments. Inline fan(no contact with air in tent) that is cooling hood is on all 12 hrs during lights on then shuts off during lights off.

I have the girls blooming in a 5x5 gorilla grow tent and the things a beast. Its more heavy duty than the jardins. Only complaint is front door zippers, they're a lil tough to open and close

10 days into bloom pics taken 2 days ago-

I'm very impressed with switching to bloom nute right when flipping the lights I've noticed less stretch and tighter nodes. Have a bit of yellowing but nothing crazy will be switching back to foliage pro very soon

Phosphorus - Dr. Nelson then looked at phosphorus. In his research, he formulated fertilizers with different levels of phosphorus, but kept the nitrogen ratios and all other nutrients the same. The results showed a significant difference in the height of bedding plants in which those fertilized with a high phosphorus fertilizer were taller than those given a low phosphorus fertilizer. The conclusion was obvious; it is not the form of nitrogen in a fertilizer that influences stretching and plant growth, but it is the amount of phosphorus.

Impressive read. So foliage pro with its low levels ammoniacal nitrogen and lower levels of P would actually prevent stretch. Perhaps I will run fp all the way through next run. Don't you think the high levels of P in the bloom would help speed up flower production and resin glands on MJ?

As you can see in the pics there's is next to no yellowing. Everything is a healthy lush green. I was not over feeding and stayed on the safe side.

Yes, a lower P formula like foliage pro will keep a plant from stretching too much. But not only that, a formula with that sort of NPK balance is going to encourage the plant to grow into a more productive structure with more leaves and branches. Do some trimming down low for a nice canopy and you'll have some noticeably larger yields too.

It's not too late to switch back to FP and feed as needed during the next 7 or 8 weeks. Those plants are looking real nice.

Thanks for the tips, you a fountain of knowledge when it come to nutes man. You notice the one plant in the cage barely stretched out of the top of the cage. I think the minimal stretch had more to with the supercropping which I kept doing about 5-7 day into flower.
