I had a little rust on my lower leaves but I chocked it up to them touching the soil after the repotting. All the new growth is fine and healthy, I'm not too concerned with it to be honest. They're putting on an inch a day they can't be too unhappy.

What final height are you shooting for before the flip?

Also the 5th picture from your last update, that's what I like to see! Very nice structure you have going on that gal.

yeah I actually topped the center stalk after the 2nd node immediately, I didn't let them get tall and cut them down because Nugbuckets uses CFL for veg, me being LED, I'd kill the plant cutting it that far low cause it would be hollow like a straw at the 3rd node.

I have 7 feet of space, just say 2 feet for light and pot height. so I have 48x48x60 of green space. 60 inches tall = lets do 18 -20 inches before flower. :)

LOL that's exactly my space as well, shooting for 18-20, I don't think I have a sativa pheno with any of these so that should do alright. You running co2 enrichment for flower? I haven't sprung for it yet.

Thank you, day 44 from seed. Their last topping took place day 28.

Are those buckets of water for thermal mass or do you have something going on there too.

scubascrog · Dec 27, 2015

Oh that is just up in the tent when I'm watering... I let it sit out for 3 days before I ph it, then bring it up when its time

ArcticOrange · Dec 27, 2015

I gotcha, thought you might be using it to stabilize your temp range. I have water so hard I have to haul in distilled. I need to get an ro set up or something.

more stress, ph runoff at a 5 again, found a bag of dolomite lime left over , amended. ready to be over this stupid ph issue.
Plants are N-toxing from their half feed, all are showing P deficiencies from ph being low. calcium deficient too now on my biggest. starting to piss me off.
Roots 707 is being garbage to me right now. I ph down to 6.8 from 8 and I STILL GET 5 PH RUNOFF. FUCCCKCKKKKAAAKKAKAKASKSKSKFLGOEMOMMVPEMGOMHWOHS
Putting extra lime in the mix when I transplant to 5 gals which will be in another 2 weeks. ffsakes. I though I was over this.

okay so I got things under control.
cal-mag deficiencies are going away, yellowing is stopping , calcium defs stopped, purple stems are going away, they are liking nutrients now.
whew.
I mixed up my dolomite and perlite in with my soil this time and the 5 gallons are gonna get wet and mixed periodically over the course of 2 days before transplanting.

on a brighter note, not all plants were really affected too bad, the under leaves are gonna come off anyways.
