So everything is looking pretty good since the res change. EC is remaining stable at 0.9 for the think differents and 1.0 for the pounders with their calmag. I did see a bit of leaf tip yellowing/burn on Think Different #1, but considering the smaller think differents are on the same feed with no leaf tip burn, im going to assume that #1's first bucket change should have come sooner and (uneducated theorising here...) she drank all the N and was burnt by the higher levels of the other stuff when i gave her a few mls of extra nutes the night before rez change.
I'm pretty sure i need to keep the feeding light due to the hardness of my water, so i think the next res change i'll up the grow A+B a smidgen but add some extra silica... I'm yet to see any change in EC levels that i didn't orchestrate myself....Hoping to see some movement this week so i can gauge how they're taking their feed.... But then again...if the EC stays the same i must be doing it right.
PH moved from 5.6 to 5.8-5.9 in the last 48 hours so i added a couple of drops of down and adjusted them all back to 5.6. Mars II 900w is hanging at 60cm and i turned the light mover on, it only moves back and fourth about a foot so they all stay under the footprint the whole time but the outer ones should enjoy slightly higher intensity as it moves around.
Gonna buy some string this week and start to gently bend some of the tops over, try to get them wide enough that i can justify moving a couple of buckets under the other mars II 900w.
Also realised my thermometer/hygrometer has a min/max setting... These babies have seen a max of 41C and a minimum of 23. I reset the meter, weather is cooling off heaps now i haven't seen temps in the tent over 29 last couple of days.
Hoping to see sex from think different #1 pretty soon, just waiting with baited breath to see hairs come out of those calyx's.
Cheers for stopping by.

Heh, nah that was my mates crop. He's pretty dirty on the whole growing weed scene now, i keep trying to convince him to go hydro. In the end our landlord couldn't cancel the contract with our property management company or something...so it will be another 7 weeks or so before they can take over managing the property for themselves. Which could potentially = 2 inspections in a week as the management company closes the book and the landlords wanna come check it out for themselves... Not looking forward to lugging my ladies outside to rest in a garden shed, and pulling my whole setup apart to make it look like it doesn't exist... but a few hours of extra work per quarter wont hurt me. Hopefully it doesnt hurt the ladies either. If i wasn't so impatient i could have waited until a couple of weeks before an inspection to drop the seeds in a small cupboard or something to start them off in, and then had an uninterrupted grow...but oh well, might even try to overlap depending on if i have space in my tent for seedlings when these 5 are in high flower mode.
