I can smell the picture lol! It's been too many years since I added a light dose of fish mix to the reservoir. I add about 5ml per 5 gallons to add flavour, that's about a 10th of lowest recommendations for soilless written on the bottle.

I used to use a product called "Floralicious +" back in the day but I always thought it smelled and looked very similar to Biobizz fish mix so I tried replacing them and got the same results. I like fish mix more since it's more concentrated with aminos, lipids and organic sulfurs and the NPK value is higher.

I had a clogged feed line today. I replaced the hose which I should have done at the start of the cycle. Luckily I only missed one feeding cycle. I keep feeding 1.0 EC and pH 6.5 and it keeps putting out 1.4-1.5 EC and pH 6.1-6.3.

Day 48 days since flip.

Everything's stable. There's some slight K and Ca def from when I increased the light intensity, they will look a little sad but won't affect growth much and that's what they're for armor and food! There's enough foliage underneath receiving the light.

Runoff's been rock solid and stable for the last week:
1.0 EC in and between 1.45-1.5 EC out. pH 6.8 in, pH 6.3 out.

They look like bunches of grapes. Seriously swollen, I love the foxy ladies.
Thanks bud! Only a couple of days left! I'm in grave need of new stock. I hate being forced having a hiatus but soon were saved for the near future at least. Sprouting "Tropical Snow"(Kali Schnapple x Kromes white triangle) as we speak. It's an old favourite of mine. Last time I ran her was somewhere around 2011-2012 and she was stellar back then!

Some more pictures from yesterday I believe.

Cheers!

How do you determine your final pull time on plants like this, that keep wanting to spit out fresh pistils ? Calyxes look great. Do you scope the triches, go by overall plant maturity, or is this one you've run a few times already and just know well enough?

It's a little bit of all the above. When I start seeing trichomes heads swelling on the flower clusters(visually without looking with scope) I know I got about two weeks to go.

I usually plan harvest whenever I start seeing sub par or retarded growth forming. That could be a new calyx forming with less sugars or a bad shape or it could be nanner's start to form signalling the plant is finished and start rodelizing to create offsprings at the end of the cycle.

I can't remember last time I looked at trichomes trough a scope. It's not a very good marker for maturity since it all depends on where you look. If the plants doesn't have complete and swollen flower clusters there's no meaning in looking at trichomes. There's better visual markers IMO.
