I’ve had a bit of recovery and some interesting observations. After increasing nutrients @ 4/30 feeding of 1550 ppm and run off of 2170 for both, I was like oh, previous out was 2020 and they ate nearly the entire prior 1300ppm. Quickly mixed a quart of 2200 and split between them with more run off of 2400. Few, they’ve been STARVING.
Greened up some, then hit with a good dose of LAB at lights out last night. I haven’t done that in like 5+ weeks, night of flip. Been busy. Now they are looking nice, still some yellow but I’m happy. No worries on new growth and now I need to figure out how to best taper down nutrients. I don’t want to be super salty going into plumping.
So some thoughts. I had to strip a ton of leaves a little over a week ago, the mother seed did not have any nutrient problems. The mom was stable at 4 days between water for a week before flip. Week 1 she went to every 3 days. Week 2 she went every 2 days and like clockwork until harvesting week 2-9 I watered every 2 days cause the 3 gal fab pot was light as styrofoam. The clones in week 5 are still water every 4 days just like in veg. No big change in uptake. It was week 3 that “low” nutrient stress showed. I’ve been adding nutes at 3x+ what the mom wanted. The clones are drinking half the water now for a month plus more than the mom. Maybe this is normal, but I’m sure heavy changes to my environment have also caused big weirdness. My space was designed as a warm space in a 45-55F un-heated space for winter. Way different ramp of changes over spring as I’ve adapted. Daily checking of my sensors say that nothing out of bounds is happening between 77-82F and 45-50RH. No doubt these two will make it the next month at least until harvest. The buds looks great, very excited to have them look more stable. Man, I want a data logger. I wish I had more environmental info.
Just observations. I’m new and learning, I think the plants are pretty ok. Me, I’m freshly baked. Just typing so I can remember how I felt after a bunch of steps. I’ll put pictures when I get home.
