Indoor MarsHydroFC3000 Red Gorilla Girl XL in Promix/AutoPot

[Zer0]

Hello everyone! I took half the year off and I'm back at it :smoking: I was planting my peppers and maters and got the urge to pop a sweet seed so here I am.

Planted seed: Planted May 10th and 2 days later it popped up
Strains: Sweet Seed's Red Gorilla Girl XL :sweetseeds:
Pot Size: 6.6 gallon AutoPot XL
Medium: Promix i used from last grow, yanked out stalk and main tap root and planted my new seed.
Nutrients: Mega Crop and Bud Explosion
Rainwater: I collect and store rain water and mix up nutes in autopot's res
Lighting: MarsHydro FC-3000 300W
Tent: Mars Hydro 2.3x2.3
Light cycle: 18/6
Fans: 2 clip fans, 1 vivosun scrubber fan and 4 inch filter

Week 1 and 2's Environment was stable at 45-58% humidity, Temps 80-85F lights on
I started with 100ppm megacrop and rain water top feeding and now at 300ppm@6.3 ph in the res valve open.

Light is set 35 inches above the plant at 60% power so around 160w or so

I think she is slow starting because of the big pot but maybe it was my bad top watering :smoking: either way she is starting to grow fast now compared to the last 10 days.

I think my PH pen is broken so that might explain some slow starts, i ordered 2 more so i have back ups for next time.

Starting to see some growth now :smoking:

Day 15

Decided not to top this girl this grow since she was small so i chose to tie her down since this tent is shorter i would like to keep her as small as i can. While tying her down i did notice 1 pistil so i'm hoping i still get enough veg time with her.

Day 19

I got bored and topped her and took 1 big fan leaf off that was bothering me.

I'm wondering how she will respond to topping, keep growing up or from the sides.
