Day 50 ~ 12/12

Drinking about a gallon a day, hand watering 3 times a day/coco is a pain in the ass! They do smell delicious sumthin like juicy fruit gum now.

some random shots...., lots of different lookin buds from the same plant

WHoa! That's a lot of water! is it mostly draining out? I've only done soil and flirted with dwc. Want some nutes? lol.

lol, yea, really i dont know what im doing yet, she gets half a gal each 3 times, watering with a little runoff. I'm just guessing on the nutes cause you cant go by the label......im sure it takes a couple of grows to really grow them correctly, ive got all kind o defic's/burn, need more defol lol, i get a bit lazy. I've almost finished my quart of bloom probably just make it....

So much this and for each strain. I've got snoops, gg4, and I think now Bwitched figured out as to how they'll act, Dancegasm is turning out squat, so more height in veg, super branchy, next time I love how it's turning out, took the least damage from the bad weather incident, crossing it with the witch. Cant wait for that.

Day 52

calaxses are just now starting to swell....still lots of new pistils, got a ways to go, couple weeks maybe

note- trying a different approach to mixing nutes, following @Herb-N-Legend input about different chems being mixed together.
Last few days watering have been nothing but floranova bloom and water, nothing else. The buffers from fnb settle my ph at 5.8, not adding any acid or alkaline to adjust ph.... hence im not adding anything to potentially lock out certain micronutes. just a test...

Re: pH, nice little article here for hydro
https://manicbotanix.com/ph-in-hydroponics/

I like the availability chart the best.

You know i do dwc and love max light intensity, so i key in on cal-mag. These articles talk about hydro pH being around 5.8 as optimum. I like 6.0-6.1 to help make the most of cal-mag additions.

I also like pH to swing through a band 6.1-5.8, which tends to happen when they’re vacuuming the water. I top water and test/adj pH and ec every morning.

I usually find a big downswing in pH to be correlated with a water infection, part of why i watch it daily.

Thx !'ve been experimenting in getting my juice so i have to add no ph adjusters, they seem healthier!

Never seen one myself, but doesn’ t hurt to be vigilent.
