So we are back to boring - the girls go their way and first I want to show you the underskirt.
The feed was 0-0-20-8 and EC 2.1 - since yesterday I go with 0-0-20-4 (NPK 4-14-13) PH 6.0.
Still no runoff but now some salt buildup at the corners of the pyramids. Should be some N and K excess. Nothing bad.
You'll spot some N excess in the pics later, that's because they stood in hot runoff too long - flooded the trays once by accident last week so N was swinging very much.
The girls slowly degrade, progressing very slow. I didn't remove any of the damaged leaves.

back ws - in the back you see the newly introduced N def..i cut N by half, a little too much - the smaller ones take it better, so I decided to stick with it...see pics later
front left scc
the leaves are still "on" and were not abandoned, parts of the damaged leaves are alive and they get sucked.
Now an overview - you see degradation only down in the bottom part - there in the biggest and lowest leaves. Only the latest introduced N def sucks "nearer" where needed, which means a little more in the upper parts.
the tops look great - as expected a P def here and there a little cal lack - nothing I worry about - I am surfing a small razors edge with nutes.
some closeups of the buds - here you see why I cut N to half - tips began to burn and the P def was/is there so EC has to be same but N had to be lowered.

they are fattening and frosting up now for the last weeks.
This is a joyride.
And here...lights out flash on
it is easy this way to distinct the ladies from another - very different bud appearance, but all very appealing. And it is nice to see how the stretch messed with the runtz and the watermelon skittles, while the scc (left front) profited much.
Have a nice week! I'll be back in laid-back-mode, putting sunglasses on to enjoy all that glitter and glitz.
Cheers!
