What do you think fixed the cal mag deficiency you had with the Alaskan?

Well I kept the cal mag the same 3ml per gallon, but added Epsom salts at 1/4 teaspoon per gallon. On top of that iv been making sure to bring the PH of my system back up to 6.5 every other day through external res.

It's all good :) With the Epsom Salts... remember if your plants start showing a cal/mag issue again, you can increase it to 2tsp per gal without an issue. I feed through exactly that from cradle to harvest no matter what the strain is. And unless I nute lock them, they never show cal/mag deficiencies. Stuff works :)

Been feeding at 1/4 tsp per gal, went with 2 tsp for 7 gallon total this time, too light? My cal mag has some and so does my grow nutes so I don’t want to overdo it with the magnesium.

nute change today went like this,

11/30 00 Seeds Blueberry Auto & Alaskan Purple Auto
40ml Botanicare PBP grow
40ml GreenPlanet Massive Bloom
28ml Botanicare Cal Mag
21ml Botanicare Silica blast
21ml Botanicare Hydroguard
PH- 6.5
PPM-538

Just to Compare to my first run, I had topped both of my chocolate skunks, this current run has been all lst, and defoliating when needed. So much more appealing and even to me.

If your plants are doing well with it, keep it that way of course. You'll find a lot of the things we stick "rules" to are more preventative than reactive. By the time we see something, it's already set in. If we can prevent it from happening, then all goes better if that makes sense. Compound it by saying that different strains have different needs. The neat trick is attempting to simple it down and broaden it out so that what you do fits what you want to do it to... all of it. That's a trick. But it's worth it.

Colour is better on the bottom pic, more even than the darker top pic.

Today marks day 31 since they were both put into the RDWC system. I Tried my best to even out the canopy on the blueberry auto.. I’m hoping they start flowering soon! I’m running out of space!
Edit: want to mention ppm has dropped by 100 in 3 days so I’m going to do a top off tomorrow and get it back up to level.

Day 39 from seed: My tent is full but I’m seeing some preflowers so hopefully soon we’ll start seeing some buds!

Did some slight adjusting on the ties today and got rid of a decent amount of leaves, just trying to keep everything evenish at this point. Been doing my top offs as needed.

Looking great! I don't see why you couldnt bump your PPM up a bit, however it is nice to see a grow that is on the lighter side of things instead of all these guys burning the piss out of their plants!

They are both into flower finally, pistils all over the place. Should I defoliate them hard or just pluck as needed throughout?

You should add a scrog unless it's too late.

Today’s picture, they are already budding. Would you say it’s too late? Never put a scrog net up before

I don't know, someone else will have to tell you that. I put mine on 2 days before flower so that they all start the same height. Feel the stems, if they are easily maneuverable then it might be a good idea but if they're already starting to get thick then I wouldn't do it.

I know I’ll be able to bend them and My light is at the highest height already, I’m worried about them stretching more but is it too late the question.
Edit: just ordered the trellis net it’ll be here Saturday! So hopefully they won’t stretch too much more.

Day 45 from seed, I’m thinking I’ll wait till my next grow to try a trellis net, I don’t want to go in there breaking things.
