Looking good! I'm about to start my first LED grow, just waiting on the tent and seeds.

It's fascinating. The plants are freaks. I've never seen a anything grow so quickly. Good luck!

Day 39

Folial spray. PH is at 5.9 and I am at 1330 ppm bloom nutes, temp 80. I could learn to like this.

Day 40 HST

Good evening, all vital signs holding steady. I broke the stem of the main cola on my biggest plant using HST (High Stress Training.) I was high and stressed the plant. I've taped the stem back together but I have to say I did a great job breaking it so I'm not hopeful. Lesson learned.

looking good bro, little bit of overfeeding maybe? bit of burn on the tips.

sweet though

Hi Dude, I may have overfed them. I was having what were diagnosed as deficiencies so I've gone to full strength bloom nutes. The nutrient levels are declining and I am scheduled for a res change tomorrow. I'll dial back the nutes to see if it helps. Thanks for looking.

I'd agree with dialing back the nutes, and maybe even top feed, mine got droopy on 15 min every 3 hours so I did 4 hours. Good vibes! Lookin good

Hi toematoe, My ppm are down to 880. I have a manual switch on the timer I have my top feed pump plugged into. I use it to turn on the top feed to test ph and ppm. I am constantly forgetting to turn it off. Subsequently the top feed runs for 24 hrs on occasion. I never see any change in the plants. I have a feeling that with the oxygenated res solution pumped up top the length of time the top feed runs does not have much influence on the health of the plants. When I remember to turn the top feed off I have it running 15 min every 4 hours. Happy growing!

Day 44 Update

Res change and nute adjustment to 75% Bloom. Still using SM-90. The bud stems are getting longer. They are getting close to the light. During the res change I noticed that one of the top feeds on the hydro unit is not working. I don't know how long it's been out of commission but the plants it was watering are fine.
