Your good there once they recover you can increase to 40-50k. Should be ok to increase about 3k a day. Some of the leaves if damages enough my not recover but that's ok.

Yeah its crazy the big leaves look sad as shit but the growth under them and the 2 colas that look like they go be coming in from where I topped them all have no issue or look like at this moment. Also my upper steam that would move around like a baby's head feels stronger. Hope I didnt hurt my babies.

Your good. You can raise the light if your readings are varying a lot, the higher the light the more even coverage. I think they are ok. Then just adjust the dimmer to hit about 30k

There is a problem with this. I have never seen a recommendation to cover with plexi glass and especially not that thick (that I know of). It will filter some of the light out so I would say the numbers are even better without it.

You won't likely need calmag. Ppm meter is good I can give you a link to make a test solution or you can order one to validate it over time. As for ph meter you might benefit from being able to test run off and source water but yeah I would not call it needed for a soil grow .. handy yes.

Ok yeah I'll take that info. And we give people water at a 7.0 ph and I let water sit out cause oh the chlorine in the water and also that will make the ph go down a but so I feel ok with the. I use the tds when I water right to make sure it's at the right ppm.

Im really enjoying this grow. Its interesting, im learning alot myself just from your experiences and the upgrades are nice. Definitely staying posted. Keep on updating. I dont really have much else to say, just wanted to help motivate :D youre doing good man! I have a PPM meter myself and it works nice. I would definitely suggest it. I like having all the little tools. i have a ph pen and all that. To me, it just makes the grow that much easier. especially someone like me who is horrible with growing. any step i can find to make things easy, ill take it. I bought them over time, and theyre cheap and handy!

But definitely good growing. im very interested in seeing where this continues to go. Mine are right at about the same stage yours are at, so im growing right along with ya. LOL.

What ppm scale is this? 700 I’m assuming?
Best to talk with EC as its straight forward ppm could be 500 or 700 scale and if you don’t know you’ll burn your plants
