Flowering update: week 4 day 1- total day count 66/67
Nute schedule: Moving into flowering I am changing the nutrient mix a bit. Jacks makes a product called "Finish" that is supposed to be used on it's own the last two weeks of flowering. I've not had good luck with it so I am taking a stepped approach this time.
Flowering schedule:
Wk 1/2 - Regular 100%
Wk 3 - One part Finish, 3 parts 100%
Wk 4/5 - Two parts Finish, 2 parts 100%
Wk 6/7 - Three parts Finish, 1 part 100%
Wk 8/9 - Finish only
Wk 10 + : Not sure yet!
Flowering: Week 4 -Day 1: Total day count : 66
Been struggling with high ppm runoff after coming off of the reservoir. Been giving lots of extra volume but they are persistent. Plant must be exuding something from the roots, probably looking for a nutrient change which is inbound starting Day 60.
Here's the breakdown for the last week:
Brain Damage #1 -D60: Week 3 D1: Beginning of adding flowering nutrients.
1.5 litres AM/PM
, most AM watering is at 7 and PM is 9.
Last day of regular 100% strength nute mix
D60 AM: 744ml runoff @1306ppm
PM: 542ml runoff @1191ppm
Adjustment to nute mix: Addition of "Finish"
Finish 1:
4 gallon batch of nutrients: 1 part Finish and 3 parts regular 100% mix.
100% : 3.6g Part A, 1.3g Epsom, 2.4g Part B
Finish: 5.42g F, 1.1g Epsom
Total blend: 10.8g A, 5g Epsom, 5.4g Finish, 7.2g B
Final ppm has been consistently: ~880 +/- 5ppm
D61 AM: 744ml runoff @1306ppm
PM: 542ml runoff @1191ppm
D62 AM: 198ml runoff @1618ppm
PM:
2L- 1306ml runoff @1310ppm
D63 AM
2L: 1142ml runoff @1369ppm
PM:

D64 AM: 1103ml runoff @1237ppm
PM: 1087ml runoff @1183ppm
D65
2L AM + 1L @1PM: 463ml runoff @1422ppm

D66
1.5L AM + 1L @1PM: 803ml runoff @1373ppm
PM: 1018ml runoff @1220ppm
Start of week 4: Day 67: W4
1 - Nutrient adjustment:
Finish 2:
Now adding two parts of "Finish" with 2 parts of 100% regular blend.
Total mix: 7.2g A, 4.8g Epsom, 10.8g Finish, 4.8g B
Final ppm: ~865 +/- 5ppm
D67 AM: 292ml runoff @1372ppm
PM: 975ml runoff @1309ppm
Brain Damage #1:
Brain Damage #2:
Flowering: Week 4 -Day 1: Total day count : 66 - ignore the wrong label on the pics.

Had to take quite a few branches off of this one. Half the plant being blocked by the massive Devils Lettuce next to it. You can see the stem is a bit angled....... Still growing fine and the easiest of the lot.
