Things are moving along. Looking ok, but there is one issue. On my runt after the last feed I noticed that 2 petioles had turned purple. The combination of being lazy and stubborn is a powerful one! Lol. I probably should’ve been mixing up a separate bottle for my runt, especially since I started to add a few things to my feed. So aside from cal mag, A&B grow, voodoo juice, and bud candy (last feed before the other night) I took out voodoo juice, and added, rhino skin, Sensi zym, and b-52. All @ 1ml/L. I’ve added some pics.

Seems like I only know the following phrase... “things are moving along.” Lol no other way to describe it really. I’m seeing signs on the plants that perhaps the feed is a bit much for them at this point so I might dilute the jugs I’ve already mixed up for them. Maybe add a half litre of water? Open to suggestions... I’ll attach a few pics.
In soil, you can alternate feeding and watering. Some guys will feed one time and then Water 2 times others will feed once water once, Etc. It really kind of depends upon your experience and how you like to do it. The main thing you should do is always water fully to where you get a little run off. At least once your plants are good and mature.
Since I’m using autocobs and my water comes out of a 5 stage RO system I’m inclined to think that even when I’m just giving them water, I should probably have some calmag in it? Any thoughts on this? Anyone and everyone is free to jump in on this! Thanks in advance, and thanks again jingo for having a look and offering advice.
They've done pretty well without the calcium so far. I'd say that's a decent quality soil. You'll definitely want to start adding some in to help fatten up those buds. Ive seen a couple guys that have found some calcium without nitrogen in it. I'd shoot for that if you could, since you were thinking you might be were feeding a little bit.
I’ve been using GH CaliMagic. It’s 1-0-0. I started using it from the moment I introduced nutes. First @1ml/L and earlier this week I’ve upped it to 2ml/L. I’ve done so based on what I’ve read from others using autocobs and cob lights in general, and it seems that if using RO water it’s even more important to do so.
I use the calimagic also I just run less grow during the veg phase and then less micro during the mid-to-late bloom stage. Just to make up for the extra nitrogen. I found my plants get the largest if they're just a little bit pale green during their entire growth cycle.
There’s been some vertical growth across the board. The runt (Kourtney) is starting to catch up with Kim but Khloe is still towering over them all. 13in, 9in, and 8 inch are their heights. Kim is quite bushy and squat (9in) with a decent amount of bud sites. I was wondering... is it too soon to defoliate? Feeling as though it’s necessary soon or even now to allow light to reach some of the covered sites. Feedback is greatly appreciated. I’ve thrown up some pics. As well, should I switch to bloom nutes now, or can I keep giving veg nutes in hopes of seeing further vertical growth? Or, do I reduce the veg a bit and add bloom nutes as well simultaneously?
