Grow Mediums CoCo flood LED PurpleLights (NLxPurple Kush)

[fatcalvin]

Yesterday was day 33 and they are starting to fill in. I upped their feelings to 3 times per day. Once at lights on then every 6 hours. I'm running out of head room because my LEDs have the metal ropes that hold them up so I might have to adjust them somehow. I'll get some pics tonight when I get home. They are also drinking about 2.5 gallons a day now on the 2 feeds per day so I might need a bigger res.

Day 36: I cleaned the res and made a fresh batch of flower nutes. I had 20 gallons and mixed 6ml micro, 9ml bloom, 2ml kool bloom, and 5ml cal/mag per gallon. Came in at 750PPM @ 5.6 PH. I'm going to monitor them closely and see if i need to goto 4 feeds a day. They are growing BIG. The taller ones are about 36" and the shorter ones are closer to 28", which ideally I wanted them all to be. the biggest one got so big that i had to bend the top down to 90* angle. It didnt break it just bent. Should recover nicely in a few day. They are getting close to growing past the top of the light! I got a few more inches of light i can move but have to do some modifications to the stand.

Anyways here are some pics of yesterdays explosion (in growth)!


THANK YOU everyone for the likes and views on this journey!

Ok so its day 42 today. These girls are going NUTS!!! They got WAY too tall. A LOT taller than i expected. Im thinking next time of topping them, just for experimental purposes. Anyways here are some pics from day 38.

And here are some from today!

AND they smell delicious! I was expecting some similar results to this when i started the grow but i really didnt think that it would end up being this big overall!!!!

Day 49. They are gaining some weight slowly but frosting up nicely! They used about 10 gallons in 4 days which is good. I upped the flood to 4 times a day now. 70 days total will probably not be enough. They had about 21 days in veg state so I'm gonna let them go for around 70 days flower. I upped the ppm to around 870 and ph at 5.8.

Well its day 50!! Here are some updated pics. Im having some humidity problems with it staying high, most likely from the flooding and the res being in the room. I feel like a dehumidifier would work but it would also hinder the process. Ive got one big fan going and 2 smaller ones to keep the air moving. I havent really seen any problems yet but if i do I will have to put a dehumidifier in or upgrade my AC to one with better dehumidifying capabilities! Anyways here are some pics of what they are starting to look like


I know I know. Natural light..... They are all tied down and i cant move them. Ill try to cut the LEDS off and take some pics. Im very impressed home well the LEDs are working. The lower half of the plants aren't coming a long as good but i think its just too crowded in the space i got LOL. Not really a bad thing I guess I plan to defoliate some of the tops fan leaves to help with penetration in the next week or so. Ive been hesitant because they look so good on the top and I dont want them to starve with not enough foliage for photosynthesis.

EDIT: The 2nd from last one on day 42 and the 3rd one form today are the same plant. It was the only one that wasn't 4 feet tall(seriously). The growth in a week is absolutely wild! I will be shocked if I dont hit my goals

May I recommend a scrog next time to help with stretch. Itll keep them at a more manageable height. I mean....duh, is that a scrog is for. They fit awesome over a 2x4 table! Just a thought.
All the same @fatcalvin....your plants are looking great!
