Glad things are shaping up under the QB, I think they just needed to acclimate to the new spectrum and light intensity, plus with some nutrient adjustment(double demeters) you should have things dialing in over the next week. Then once you get them potted up they will really take off!!
Can not wait!!!!!! Sick of taking care of some of these dudes in here. Im calling them every name under the sun while im pouring the nectar goodness all over them the ones i expect are men any ways. Gna get the trellis nets out and really try to cover my floor plan. I bought another humidifier knock on wood its holding humidity at 62% and 80*f. Prime vpd!! Everything is too good right now lol. Thanks everybody.

No. I have 2 quantum boards. when there done vegging ima toss the other qb up. T5 will be for my veg tent after this run. Got a bunch more seeds to pop soon as these go in flower im gna pop 2 more packs. Take some clones and hope i have a fleet of mothers. Speaking of mothers how do you guys do it. My buddy has a bonsai mother for like 3 years now. Every few weeks he clips it down to nothing basically and it grows right back up thing looks cool as hell.
I do the same, bonsai style, but don't keep that long. Will flower it out from time to time and just start a new mom.

Plan for the stress of the light change from T5 to the QB. They are going to need to adjust like the others but you can try to get ahead of the calcium demand and start ramping DD for the light change.

One of the bonsai tree tricks I use sometimes with cannabis is a low stress defoliation. Some plants get extremely stressed from full leaf removal at the petiole so we cut the leaf in half, like when cloning, so more light can penetrate the canopy and at same time not stress the plant. There is also tricks to stimulate back buds without removing the lead growing tip.

Do you root prune and repot to the same size as you were in?

yeah....before I prune any top growth, i cut away 30-40% of the rootball then i cut away 20 - 30% OF the the top growth. If you cut branches before the roots they can bleed sap but it's mainly just good practice. Just want to balance out the smaller pruned root system with it's top growth. New growth explodes from every node!! I do the same if re-vegging a plant too.

When i open TT, i dont yell ahhh butts anymore. I'll just groan at the smell and move on. You get semi adjusted to it. Its just awful, so expect awful i guess? lol
For real im in veg so i havent really used TT yet. I just got photo p and holy shit smells like my bucket i pick up dog shit with and forgot to empty it then it filled with rain water for 2 weeks in 100* weather.

My strawberries are just unreal this year. Grow Big/Big Bloom doesn't even compare.
(sorry whoring photos lol)

What are you all doing for the veggie garden?

For feeding.

Generally i just take the leftovers. (if there isnt any bk in it) Ill dilute it down to about 1/4 strength. Gives me enough nutes to feed most of the garden outdoors.
Plus they are such light feeders anyways. Most of them.

Nice strawberry plants! I do a big veggie garden in no till amended beds with teas, topdresses and foliars. Tomatos, peppers, beans, brocolli, squash, zuch, snap peas. I have strawberries as a living cover crop under my tomato plants alongside a cover crop blend.

well im gonna do a side by side ... nectar and home grown bokashi ...... be intresting to see...photo plus has a very nice smell..lmao ......
I'm glad your doing this, was seriously about to try the Green Gro Natures pride inputs when I have the homegrown bokashi kit I have just used a little of with my nectar. So I'm gonna tag along with Bubba and put these microbes to work, at least we will have each others feedback. I think the BE1 pellets will be a nice addition too.....gonna be fun!! And don't worry kids, the NECTAR will still be flowin!!
