I believe I caught the problem starting about 3-4 days ago and turned it around. I think because of all the watering without cal mag and RO water had made the bag deficient of both plus the coco was holding onto potassium the plant needed. Monday night/Tuesday morning I flushed the bags till the ph was where I wanted it to be then did a basic week 1 feed with cal mag. Monday evening I feed them more Ph’d water/calmag/floragro for the potassium. This morning they are looking very good. The lime green that is associated with cal mag def is starting to go away and no more turning leaves.

The girls are at the end of week 1 and look pretty good. Lights gradually increased to week 2 through the week. Watered once today with just cal mag and water. Will water tonight with cal mag and nutes. The LST training is paying off so well that the lower branches and new node points are exploding. I think by the end of next week they will be developed for more training.

Water and rapid roots tonight. Girls are looking swell. Two of each are standouts so far. Color and structure are all balanced and strong. I will most likely use these two for cloning.

Just swell

Good morning ladies! The LST early on is working perfectly. Blanch was accidentally super cropped but has come back hard proving she is just too much for any one man. This evening we are watering all the ladies with their first full dose of nutrients. I have been feeding mostly organic beneficial bacteria to promote a well balanced home for the girls. I will double my micro nutrients tonight because I’ve noticed some possible iron deficiency. Temps are hot today. I’ve turned the ac off, opened the house up for fresh air. Tent is currently 86 with 51% RH. Trying to let these girls harden a little and temps are well within my 15 degree swing.

12pm Lights out soon and I will foliar spray with a nutrient mix on my 15 lights out cycle. 15 min pre/post lighting schedule using lights to mimic sunrise and sun set. Gives me 15 min to foliar spray on the start of the sleep cycle. Plants looked better this morning after that 1am feed. Still see some lingering signs of nute def. Fed the other half of the 1am mix at 1pm to the ladies and prepped for lights out. Started immediately some minor low stress training. There is some fresh leafing on the inner nodes and on the main stem. Used a bamboo rod laid across the riser and looped gardening string to loosely pull the tops toward the center as to expose the new growth to fresh light.

1am plants still looked like they needed some nutrients. 5.8 water with my week 1 mix to a gal of water. Mixed the nutrient batch into a separate gal of RO water brining the ppm to around 150. 6.0 ph. Fed all 4 1gal of mixture and kept water to test.

Picked up the clones during the evening and immediately sprayed organic pesticides on the plants for several cycles with HB-101 and Plant Therapy for the first hour. Plants stayed off to the side under a fan to keep the foliar sprays from drying too slow. Transferred at 9pm into 1gal smart pots. Pre filled holes with Mykos and Azos and back filed clones adding fresh coco where needed. Watered 4 plants with 1 gal of 5.8 water with roots activator and HB-101 only. Plants are a little K deficient. Some strange leaf damage. Possible mites so I sprayed vigorously.
