New Grower Hog's First Grow

[Hog_M@Gundy]

Morning Temp: 77° Humidity: 63%
Just waking up here:

Not seeing any more progression of deficiency, but the leaves that were affected are starting to yellow. I split a gallon of rainwater between them to help them through until tomorrow when i can get accurate ph readings. Muchahcas are behind the Mephistos in development, haven't seen much action for a few days on either. They are supposed to take around 2 weeks longer than the Mephistos so it may make sense. Forum Stomper already has some nice tight buds forming.

In other news, I aggravated my fractured left foot (broke last September and didn't heal properly). Not that bad but I can't walk on it for long before it starts aching. I'm in a boot for now... fingers crossed no surgery... may have to move the grow to the main level, or just rethink it. Autopots and a RO system sounding real good right about now, lol. Hope ya have a nice weekend. Thanks for dropping by!

Thanks man, ill be alright, just a pain in the ass! Definitely running different scenarios of how to rethink my grow, just in case. AC infinity has their self watering fabric pot stands back in stock August 16th and those may be a lifesaver. But for now, just gonna take it easy, take about 150mg of RSO and fire up the PS4.

Yeah they look pretty cool, very simple. But they're 4/$60 I think, so pretty affordable. They sell out quick, so I figure they must be good.

Day/Night Temp: 79/72. Humidity: 65/63%

Got the ph meter in today and fed each about .75 gallons of 50/50 RO+Rainwater with 30ml/gallon Nectar for the Gods yucca extract. I noticed the plants sucked up the water much more quickly and the moisture distributed more evenly around the root zone of the pots. Could just be bias because its something I just bought, but it took them less than 15 minutes to soak up all they wanted vs 30+ before.
Everything seems to be going fine. Still no noticeable progression of the deficiency. The Mephistos are starting to fatten up their buds. Again, could be bias, but Strawberry Nuggets×Pink Panama smelled distinctly of strawberries today when i stuck my face up to the main cola! Its got some red stems that its shown from a young age, would be cool if that showed up in the flower. It looks like the sativa dominant Panama, smells like the strawberry nuggets?! Can't hate that! It is however still showing signs of N Tox or maybe just light stress from consistently growing to about 6" below the light, no matter how i adjust it. Hoping the Muchachas start really turing onto flowering, but they're looking pretty healthy.

Cleared out some lower growth on SNxPP to open up some airflow today (Definitely has a sweet/fresh berry scent).
Probably will do the same on Muchacha #1 in the next few days. I want to wait until its more solidly into flower... don't know if there's any advantage/disadvantage, just kinda playing around with things as i go and watching how the plants react.
Muchacha #2 I'm happy with, just waiting for both of them to start packing in buds. They really want to be big ol bushes.
Forum Stomper is looking like its gonna be nothing but thick nugs. Can't wait to get this stuff to harvest!

They are looking perfect for their age

@Zeromitch. Thanks man! Got a nice storm this morning and filled up my rainbarrel, the day after I emptied it. I keep barely lucking out, lol. Also, I think this Yucca extract is awesome for bottom feeding. My pots are perfectly moist just below the surface, and they soak it up about twice as fast. Gonna keep testing to make sure I'm not just creating a self fulfilling prophecy though, haha. Hope you had a good weekend!

I'll keep the yucca in mind for bottom feeding since that is what i like to do now.

I gave up on rain water, have not seen a good hour storm here in 3 months now so i bought a RO system at the home depot for $165 after taxes. i hate to go RO as i loved rain water but i keep stressing about having to go to walmart and buy tap water from them since they don't service their RO stations there nothing like paying for 100+ppm water when you think you are getting 30-50ppm shit lol
