Dinafem - Gorilla Day 25 Of Flower.
Just notes today images will follow on the 26/02/2019.
All the plants have now had about 5 litres of Bloom nutrients flushed through them at EC1.3 and PH6.0 Nutrient temps at 22c same temp as the roots. So PH and EC are the same going in as out, so that sets them up for the next stage in flowering.
Temps in the cabinet are steady at 26c and RH 53% lights on and 21c lights off.
Every plant has had all the large fan leaves and fan leaves that are tight to the main stem removed. I now have for more air circulation above and below the canopy, and light getting into the plants. Buds are setting well as I expected on say the top 12 inches of the plants. The lower branches to be honest seem rather light on it and is my fault not the plants, the heavy defoliation before switiching to 12/12 is the cause, they should have had longer to recover but as already said in other posts I had a choice to make and stick to it. Im sure they will be fine but if in a weeks time if I don't see a lot of progress I may pluck all the buds on each branch and just leave the end clusters on. Not ideal but it's the way it goes and off course will effect the final harvest weight, that will matter to some people but I don't mind, I prefere the quality.
All pots, walls, lights etc have been cleaned, from now till harvest the grow area will be wiped down and hoovered out on a weekly basis, it's just my routine when im able to remove the plants from the cab.
Future updates will be in the normal format more images and less crap talked and relevant info updated when needed.
That's all the info for today, take it easy folks.
