New Grower Expert Seeds Gorrila Glue 4

I think I might go a little hard on the nutes with this, in the hope that it produces as much as possible before I have to chop. This is on a time-limit. I will be leaving town right after the end of week 8. If I dont chop it then, it will be dead before I get home. So here's hoping.

Phresh Pix...

Day 28 from germination.. Looks pretty healthy!

I've upped the nutes to 1ml/L across the board for CalMag, B52, and the base Grow/Micro/Bloom. Since this is doubling what is already in the tank, I want to ease the plant into the higher dose.

Replaced 1/4 of res with new mix, and moving forward will top off with new mix until tank concentration is eased up to the desired feed levels. Make sense?

pH is pretty much a dead on 6.0, so I have that going for me..

Day 31. It's only been a few days, but it never hurts to put up more pics..

Nutes unchanged from last set.

Want to highlight this "split" in the main stem early on..

Both are just as high, and thick. As the plant gets larger, i'll ease these apart a little bit to give them both room to produce. You can see it from at least one of these pics, too..

And here's the view from above..

Day 38.

Starting to show sex, so I'm starting the Big Bud. Now at (per L) 1 ml CaMg, and 1.5 ml Big Bud, B52, and Bloom/Grow/Micro

Making an effort to let the two main branches grow in parallel, but it's hard to keep them too far apart without the plant growing out of horizontal space.

Looking really good!! Whats up with the speckled leaf on the last pic?

I have no idea. I noticed them on the speed bud grow, too. They seemed to go away when I added some calmag.. I don't think it's bugs, but it sure looks like it, don't it?

Edit: By "Go away" i mean it stopped showing up on new growth.

Thats good news.....and it was my fear. Just to be safe, flip the leaf over and look really closely if you spot any black specks.

Day 45 update..

The spotted leaves might be a Calcium def. I can't find any bugs, so can't think of any other cause, so I've stepped the CalMag up by 50%. That makes 1.5ml/L of: CalMag, B52, BigBud, Grow/Micro/Bloom.

And she's a bit bigger now, too..

Still no flowers, but I have to imagine it's close.

Stay tuned!

Looks good bushing out nicely!!

Day 50:

She's taller than I was expecting. Still stretching with a few pre-flowers.

Res PPM climbed to twice the feed level, so I'm cutting back sharply on the calmag - i'm pretty sure that's what is building up.

pH has been rock solid at 5.8

All new feedings now will be (per Liter) .75ml CalMag, 1.5ml Big Bud, B52, Grow/Micro/Bloom
