Awesome, I saw your NL#1 has made a full recovery. That's good! Did #2 not come back?

It is growing. Seems to have perked up a bit after I added micronutrient complete epsoma. (garden tone)

yeah. NL#2 isn't getting much light tho. much further away from the lights. When I transplant NL#1 into the larger planter, NL#2 is coming back upstairs under her own personal light.
Gonna put her under 23w 5000k and a 23w 2700k. Veg her out until near harvest time for NL#1. Then she will go in the grow box.

Yeah I got tired of updating both. Also easier to find my journal than my thread.

I see, makes sense! I never got started with a journal. I've always preferred threads in a forum.
QUICK UPDATE:
NL#1 has hit day 22 from sprout and she has shown sex. So exciting, its about to get good.
I also managed to mess up a FIM, didn't cut enough the first go round. FIM'ed her again before I noticed her pistils.

Thought you might be interested to see NL#1 and #2.
NL#1 is growing an inch a day now. She is hurrying to mature, I imagine, with the 12/12 light schedule. This is a photo of her from two days ago. She is 9 inches tall today. Just didnt feel like taking a picture. Tomorrow maybe.
NL#2 Is stretching a bit. I think it is because the light comes in at an angle. She had a little heat stress today, but I am still happy with her growth. Her bottom leaves are brown cus I kept rubbing them to smell her sweet skunk. Oops. No sign of deficiency or burning.

Just read thru the thread, subbed, looking great Lerufus any pics? I have a question for you, when aerating your Go feed do you get foam on top and is it better to aerate before feeding?

Foam develops after 24-36 hours of aeration. The main reason I aerate is to prolong the life of my nutrient solution. I feed both immediately after mixing and after aeration, which works with the feeding schedule I've adopted, more on that in the update. Based on hydroponics roots love dissolved oxygen(the more the better) so I feel like aerating can only have a positive effect right? Haha

NL#2 smells like lemon with a slight skunky odor.

If it doesn't hurt why not
. I'll try aerating before feed for a while to test it out see if theres any difference. I had some bad luck earlier, one of my plants dropped and the Y from topping it split about 2-3 inches down, everything is in tackt so I just tied it together. Will the plant recover, any stunted growth is expected but will it take long to recover? Im 7 days in flower now, promix soil, 600w hps, 5x5 tent, 70-90 degrees and 35-55 humidity.. I have this setup in my garage, I cant keep it indoors..

Just look at supercropping, people break branches on purpose. Weed is a weed, it can take alot of abuse.If it doesn't hurt why not
All's good with the girls today, they have all shown their pistils now
Not to to much to report today, but I did decide to experiment on my Northern Lights a bit. And I've fallen into basically feeding 2 days in a row followed by a watering day, I think the girls are loving it. A typical cycle would be mix 1 gal grow nutes, feed(BFPX,G13PX), water(NL#1,Twi), aearate 24 hours, feed grow nutes, mix flower nutes, feed, aearate 24 hours, feed(NL,Twi), water(BFPX,G13PX), repeat.NL#1
Day: 35
Height: 17.7cm/7in
Nutes: GO Full Series WK 5
Comments/Concerns: As the pictures show, I did a bit of trimming and a touch of lst. Tied down 5 of her secondary heads.
Twi:
Day: 27
Height: 21cm/8.3in
Nutes: Next feeding GO Full Series WK5
Commments/Concerns: I don't have too much to say about her really, she's doing excellent she's gaining height really quickly now. I didn't look at her for about 6 hours and she was a good 2" closer to the light.
