What's this we have here? A new look for RIU? A few things to update... where to start?
Well first, I changed the reservoir, using 20 ml per gallon of Bloom and 10 ml per gallon of Micro. Also still using Hygrozyme. All at about 1200 ppm, 5.8 pH. Going to go with full strength nutes for a few days and topping off with plain pH adjusted water.
I'm almost positive the claws on the Super Lemon Haze were caused by Purple Maxx. She was doing perfectly fine until this week, after I used Purple Maxx. She seems perfectly healthy, otherwise. I did some research and I'm almost positive the claws are from overfeeding. The leaves are a very dark green (in fact, some even look slightly purple-ish at certain angles). That with the curling seem to be the signs of too much nutes. So looks like a 500 ppm res is still too much for the SLH when using Purple Maxx.
On a positive note, the Master Kush and SLH are definitely producing a good amount of crystals. I'm not going to let what happened stop me. I will use it again early next week, then once more and then probably switching over to HCO's Gravity if things stay on schedule.
Also, I highly endorse HCO's Bushmaster to anyone who wants to speed up the flowering process. The MK and SLH are seriously at least a week further into flowering than the WW, which did not get Bushmaster. It will be interesting to see how much the potency is affected, though I'm hoping it will be minimized with the use of Purple Maxx.
