Indoor First AFN grow-Fast Bud #2

[cookiemonster]

What's goin on people? I've been on this site for a little bit now but I haven't really been actively posting. Until now that is. I have a 17 day old girl I'd like you guys to meet. I'll get into the pictures now and my setup later . I've been trying out some LST and today I trimmed a leaf that was covering most of the lower branches. I normally don't trim but I think it'll be worth it in the end.


Now the specifics...
Lighting: 150W HPS + 2 26W 6500K CFLs
Soil: Started in jiffy peat pellet, transferred to mixture of sunshine mix and ocean forest.
Water: Tap water through a brita filter, pH usually at 6.5
Nutrients: I may feed with Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, or Cal Mag depending on need. I've already fed once with 1tbsp of Big Bloom and I think I saw a tiny bit of burn so I'll wait to feed anymore. That's all I got for now, what do you all think?

Thanks for the support guys, means a lot. This is my 3rd grow over-all. I've done an auto blue mystic and a 60 day wonder, both great. I'm happy with the ocean forest so far. On my other grows I've had to feed by now. On this one the cotyledons are still dark green! This is my first time trying LST this much too. It's pretty much growing sideways now. Looks like I'll have a few tops now though. Now it's just time to sit back and watch her grow. It's amazing how much time I can spend just looking at her and trying to figure out my next moves, LST-wise.

Caution: Though cannabis is not addictive... watching it grow is.

Small update. She's 20 days old today and getting really bushy. She's starting to smell alot more too. Still pretty green, but I'm seeing minor spotting on some leaves so I may need to feed soon. I replaced the top couple inches of soil with some Light Warrior that my friend just bought. I thought it might help the micro-environment. Also watered yesterday after a bit of a dry spell. Did some more LST today too, on the left-most branch. I wanted to do the main branch but I can't get to the stem, she's got to stretch a bit more I guess. I'll also probably pull out the middle branches next time to open the center up a bit. How's she looking so far, on schedule? Just over a week of flowering.
