Are these Ready to flip ?

[benjones]

evening all . a little update for you @Aqua Man @chemistry @Madmax @Goodshit97 @SSgrower and @ninjadip

the plants have now been in flower for about 12-13 days . i have 2 tables and i have tried to arrange them so all the bigger ones are on one table and the smaller ones on the other . the bigger ones have stretched quite a bit more compared to the smaller ones , i am unsure if this is due to the light being a lower/higher percentage or just how they are growing . i have 2 lights per table but they are not all daisy chained together , i will try and do it tomorrow if i can .

a couple of questions if i may please . i am still on 1.6 EC as recommended by @Aqua Man and i would say the majority look very happy at this EC

i have stopped using silica from today .

should i continue with fulvic acid all the way until the end ?

currently using
tap water 0.2
cal mag 0.2
mega crop a and b 1.1
epsom salts 0.1
fulvic acid 1ml liter
1.6 EC altogether

others things i have but i am not sure whether i should use them is sweet candy and sea K from greenleaf nutrients . i also have superthrive .
should i add these to the feeding .
will i need a pk booster soon ?

@Aqua Man , should i still stay on a 50/50 mega crop A and B split when adding the nutrients ?

also, i have netting up , where there are gaps in the netting ( no cola growing ) should i be trying to encourage a cola into the empty net square by tying it to grow in that direction ?

thanks very much everyone for all your help and advice

I'd keep going as you are, plants look fine to me, they have good colour and a nice amount of stretch.

Thanks @chemistry . should I try and tie them into the empty spaces or should I just let them fill it out as they grow ?

I have a few gaps that I could try and tie a colas into , but then am I spoiling it for the ones underneath that will fill the gap ?

Let them go their own way now, you have a good even canopy, should make two/three feet of growth , it can be a problem if your mesh is to tightly packed, as air can't blow through your plants.

I agree with @chemistry keep going as you are. Use fulvic until the end. you wont beed the PK boost imo

Plants look awesome, good stretch to them too. Nothing better than nice green praying plants. Good work
I know nothing about coco, but i would just keep going the way you are with how they look.

You probably only have 7-8 days of stretch .id Counter in 2’ a day at its worst so that’s 16 ‘ say 4’ on top of that for the remaining of plant growth till the end. @Dirtbag has ran his night time temps closer or even exceeding day time temps to stop them stretching..I can’t for the life of me remember what dirtbag called it but it does work if you have to use it..

Sounds like simulating summer nights, thanks for that info, makes sense. Always good to have the knowledge to exert more control over your grow.

thanks @Madmax . i can raise the lights on one table about 2 foot more but on the other table i have about 18inches left . it will be close

hopefully you won't be posting any pictures to prove that @Madmax

they only went into the 5 gallons 7 days ago . so i watered them when they first went in , then 2-3 days after , and then today , so about every 2-3 days . the roots have sprouted through the fabric in a nice way in the last 36 hours .

many thanks for the compliment , but it's mainly from the help i get from you guys though and a bit of luck

i have had a few issues along the way which 90% was self inflicted

afternoon @Aqua Man @chemistry @Madmax @Goodshit97 @SSgrower and @ninjadip

sorry folks for being a pain , i just want to check what you guys think .

the plants have been in flower for 3 weeks on sunday/monday . i will attach a few pics to show you how they are doing .
i have pruned up the bottoms . i did a light defoliation today , i have never done a defoliation before so went a bit easy . one question, i removed a few big fan leaves that were attached to a main colas , they were about 3 to 4 buds down from the top , should i have left them? they were shading some bud sites underneath

i am still feeding the same as usual :
tap water 0.2
cal mag 0.2
mega crop a and b 1.1
epsom salts 0.1
fulvic acid 1ml liter
1.6 EC altogether

i have 2 tables on the go which i use water from the same reservoir to feed both tables.
water in EC is 1.6 and PH is about 5.9
table 1 with the shorter plants the run off is 1.4 EC and 5.9 - 6 PH
table 2 with the taller plants run off EC is 1.5 and 6.3 PH

i have just found 2 packets of stuff i ordered weeks ago .
mono potassium phosphate 0-52-34 and a packet of potassium sulfate 0-0-50 . i think i oredered these after reading something on the "how to feed coco" thread by @Aqua Man . i believe it had something to do with doubling up on epsom salt to 2g a gallon late in flower if you didn't have one of these ( i think potassium sulphate ). i forget what it was sorry guys . @Aqua Man kindly help me here please mate .

once again thanks to everyone who has replied to my questions and to those who have posted some excellent threads on here . it's a great community and i hope i can contribute to it in the future with something useful

sorry i should have explained that better. it was just 1 large fan leaf from each plant

[chemistry]

Your plants look fine to me Ben, just keep going as you are, and keep putting up pics on your diary, that way the Farmers can see if any thing starts to go wrong.

thank you @chemistry

i will hope to update the thread every saturday and if any issues arise i will update as soon as possible and i hope you don't mind if i tag you

Tag me if you like, but be warned, it may take a couple of days for an answer, as its not unusual for me to be absent for a couple of days every now and then.
