Day 29 two full weeks after going to 12/12 and she is drinking herself nearly dry daily. I forgot to soak the blumat carrot in water over night. Will be day behind setting up drip feed. She is coming along lovely and has taken well to LST so far. Leaves overall healthy in appearance and feel. Fed to extra runoff
Day 30 adjusted lst ties, fed to runoff
pH slurry test results came in at 6.0. Right on track. Ppms may have crept up a little but could be from her drinking herself dry in less than 24hrs. Fed her back into range.
Day 31 she was parched at lights on. Setting up blumats tonight. Fed to runoff. Got a little more progressive with LST. She's still stretching so I am trying to keep her as flat as I can right now. Removed 2 leaves for better light penetration.
Installed troph blumat and 3 gal res. see photos in this week. Since its drip feed, reduced ppms to 650. Will be closely watching until dialed in. Everything was sterilized with 91% iso alc.
Day 32 adjusted blumat to increase drip frequency. Pot was drier than I like it to be. Adjusted some lst points, removed 1 fan leave for increased light penetration. The smell of her buds is changing to an herbal incense green vine. Interesting to say the least. Since coco did dry out a little, I manually fed to runoff before adjusting drip rate.
Day 33 she drank nearly a gallon in 24 hours, adjusted blumat slightly again, adjusted lst points. Added 2 gal to res.
Day 34 blumat ran away over night and dumped most of the res into my drip pans. Refilled res with fresh nutes and adjusted blumats. Increased feed, ppms and pH are in range in root zone, shes just getting a bigger appetite.
Adjusted lights and lst points. Since removing a few large fan leaves, lower bud sites have exploded. Should have a decent harvest top to bottom on this one.
First day I have not recorded vertical height change. She had stayed the same height for a full 24hrs. Stretch may have finally ended @ 20 days after start of 12/12. She has filled out about 80% of the grow space (5 sqft). Amazing for only a 2 week veg before 12/12 flip.
Day 35 last day of the 3rd week since the "flip" and shes coming along right on schedule. Growth from base to main cola seems to have stalled but growth to side branches appears to be still growing. Possibly because of the 130° bend I put in her stalk. I removed 4 leaves today. I feel like I take one and she makes 5 more.
