I like to know if you add the ppm from your tap to the nutes, Captain?Good morning. 2.6 EC is high for the current growth stage. Should be more like 1.4-1.6 right now, but if you have EC in your tap you should factor that in to the final number.
But I'm measuring EC.I'm new to this but if i add 440 ppm from my tap water on top of what my nute scheme say, i'd say it will mean something
I pluck leaf anytime they are in the way. I see a lot in the way in this pic...lol Leaf removal for me starts in early veg and doesn't stop till about mid flower.Update day 1 12/12
The two ladies on the top left look rather sad compared to the others.
But the front 3 look amazing imo.
My scrognet arrived today too. Should I hang it up yet?
And another defoliation in week 3 of flowering?

Do you remove leafs daily, weakly ? Do they need to recover from it for some days ? I'm afraid to take away to muchI pluck leaf anytime they are in the way. I see a lot in the way in this pic...lol Leaf removal for me starts in early veg and doesn't stop till about mid flower.
To me leaf removal is a legit method of training. I use it in early veg to coax out branches. In Veg if a leaf is in the way of a budsite I remove it. After wk 4 ive really slacked off and let them go.
Thats my way...it may conflict with others but I share it because it works for me.
I removed them a week before the flower flip and 4 weeks into flower.Do you remove leafs daily, weakly ? Do they need to recover from it for some days ? I'm afraid to take away to much
I approached my first grow with the infinite wisdom of Michael Scott: K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid)
... this ragebait?!?I understand what you're saying.
I'm the type of person who wants everything to be perfect. So I try to look up everything, and then get confused by all the different information.
10 years ago, things seemed much more peaceful without the app and all the sensors.
Its '' the claw'', possible to much N at the root zone.I wish i could tell ya,
Temp and rv are okay, fluctuates a bit but okay.
I gave them water till runoff and the water after that only 50% nutrients. now back to normal.
Light is 43cm and currently around 700ppfd.
No i totally agree 15years ago you put a 600watt above 9 plants no meters no sensors and everything went fine.... this ragebait?!?
My " guess" is that Gmonster has a well ran grow with good environment and great control over nutrition.I pluck leaf anytime they are in the way. I see a lot in the way in this pic...lol Leaf removal for me starts in early veg and doesn't stop till about mid flower.
