No flush yet.. about 5 weeks or so in. Flush with 3x's volume with light nutes or no nutes or ?

Thanks!

Just PH'ed water, no nutes for your final cleanse.

Edit: To clarify it seems as though elsamurai is suggesting you do a mid flush - to get out salts and other build ups - not your final flush. And here's an easy example if you use say 1 gal of water per plant - 2 gal PH'ed water - let sit for 30-60 min - then 3rd gallon should be your scheduled or planned feeding nutes.

Quick update... the thread title is nearly true again I put the same 100x3 LED and the HPS is in there.. it's on 450W. I received the other day a Mars 2 900W that will likely be my primary light for Auto's and as originally planned, a little hps on the side.

They are beginning to fatten up a bit. Kind of fun to watch your medicine grow

Pics are the same cola... and grow area, just trying to figure out how to use white balance

yup, that's what I meant. I do this about every 4 week's. pour 3x the pot size of plain ph water let drain well and then a light feed. I wait a few hour's before the light feed as they can get a little over watered

Hey Chipper, have yours stopped their vert growth yet? If so about when did they stop growing taller? Just wondering when the switch to bloom nutes should be done for these plants.

Yep, the Heavyweight and Sour Diesel were done stretching around week 4 to 5ish... all done now at week 7 or so. The heavyweight and sour diesel seem to be quickly turning towards the end here..

Day 53 Update

Looks like the Heavyweights and Sour Diesel are quickly sending me signals that they are winding down.. in a matter of days, all the pistils are beginning to turn brown/red and beginning to yellow. Maybe they really want to finish around week 8, I'll start going light and beginning to cleanse with ph'd water and probably still stick with some unsulfphured molasses in there too for another week or so. The candy kush and northern lights look like they are just finishing stretching and have several more weeks to go, I guess it's not uncommon to need more time than stated.

Will be nice to know where my medicine comes from, and that no weird crap that I don't know about is going in my body. Nice feeling IMO.

Ok, here goes!

Thanks man. I'm on day 35 now and I've noticed growth doesn't seem as vigor as it had been. Tomorrow I'm gonna feed em with their last veg nute feed, and then I'll be making the switch over to bloom nutes and letting the magic happen. Seems to be right on schedule with yours too.
