I added a tsp of ALASKA fish emulsion to the mix this morning since I noticed a few of the plants were looking rather pale.
The PH of the mix was about 4.8 so I added a couple of drops of base and raised it to around 6.

Thanks sticky!

End of day 16
I repositioned most of the plants in order to allocate some of the rear portion of the tent for another veg box and a small shelf to introduce some of my veggies to the 1000watt since I have the room I did it with green beans and they blew up to about 18" in a 5 days so now I'm trying peppers since they take forever.
As for the bud; yesterday I noticed crystals forming all over near the bud sites everyday there are more pistils.

My new stand for the AC to allow for constant drainage I ran a .18mm hose from the drain down to the bucket below and it works great!

That screen looks great...filled in very nicely. I believe you're gonna have a bumper crop with this one.

yeah, it's getting pretty tight in there already and there's still 4-5 weeks left at least. I dont plan on tucking anymore beyond this point, to avoid disturbing any of the flowers so I hope I can get away with just tying them back for the rest of this grow.

Sounds like a good plan, I think you'll have no problems with that.

......yeah that's massive bro, I hope you plan on spreading those pots out, they'll be growing into each other before you know it.
You have some nice looking seedlings, doggies nuts armeggedon? How much did you pay for those, I heard they're crazy expensive. I can see where the 5K went quickly.
Best of luck and you have some real work ahead, it takes me about an hour and a half to tend to my 20 ladies.

I've got about $800 into my grow (including cost of power)..... I couldn't imagine something happening to $5k worth of it. I wouldn't shoot myself; but I'm pretty sure my wife would!

Day 19 of 12/12

A bunch of the leaves on side two got scorched after having them about 8" from the light? The Damage is mainly confined to one branch so it wont be too devastating. I moved the cart back from the light again to give them a break. I will have pics of the leaves in a bit.

but first here's a few pics of some bud sites

I'm learning everyday, I take bits from other people all the time and I'm gradually developing my own "Banzai method" that I plan to use in my future grows.
Thanks for the +rep and let me know if you have any questions.

BANZAI!

The color came back to the burned leaves overnight though, the edges are still rather crispy.
Would trimming the burned leaves be detrimental to the flowering process?
Should I just cut the whole branch off?
