The picture doesn't look too bad but almost all the fan leaves are slightly yellowing and wrinkly. I've been checking ph and ec on runoff every water to I know ph has been 5.8 -6 going in and 6.2 -6.5 coming out. My runoff did hit 1.4 ec which I felt was kinda high for these small guys so ive run ph'ed water through until it ran. 8ec. Trying to identify problems is always a pain in the butt for me. deficiencies versus toxicities symptoms looking so similar I try to take good notes but always seems like a bit of a guessing game.

I have a foliar spray called optic foliar (overgrow) which is basically a light foliar feed so I've sprayed that on both plants and looks like the sc pearked up nicely so ill run some base nutes at 1/2 strength and hope she recovers. I want to take clones in 2 weeks so I like to have the mom fully charged up before that.

Week 3 veg.

I think my sc recovered the new top growth looks good and is praying upwards. The lower leaves will proboly look rough until I remove them mid flower. I've come to the conclusion that I nuked her with calcium.

Clones

Strawberry cough
Auyaska purple

About a week before cloning I have a good foliar spray that will build brix level up to give the cuts some stored energy.

The moms now.

Week 1 flower

Week 2 flower
So I've upped the size of my res to a10g tote. These plants are needing 4 min a day with two drippers in each to stay happy. This is my bloom line up. Looks like allot of salt but I use the bloom a+b at half strength and try to run an ec of 1.2 for now.

Nutes

I think what I like best is the tight nodes and many flower sites you get with cmh. This is under a single 315.

Backwards day? I had to preform surgery on my favourite seeding today. This is a blueberry cbd strain from a breeder in california that is proboly the best yielding plant I've ever grown.

And back to normal

 

[4plant]

Week 3 flower. I've started using a p-k boost now. I'm also pinching and pruning any little sites that are low and not going to produce much.

 

[Madmax]

Good idea.thats a great time to b doing it.what do these babies yield dude.

Cheers max

These strains are new to me. Strawberry cough and auyaska purple but with this 315 I've been pretty consistent getting 1g per watt.

Nice looking grow, like watching the scientific approach to growing.
Double kudos for the cmh. Been running and preaching the benefits for over 7yrs.
Best of luck with your grow.

Thanks wattsaver, I'm finally trying to understand why I'm putting in what I am rather than just reading what the bottles tell me. Have you run these bulbs both vertically and horizontally? I need an excuse to buy a nice vertical hood but can't seem to find a convincing argument.
