Thanks! I was expecting her to be small and fast and not fill up the tent so much so I could be able to fit another small one in there... so far it seems i'll be able to do it! Was waiting for the stretch to stop ot determine this... and now i'm just trying to decide between White Chem and Deez Nugz...

UPDATE

Today is day 49 for this freebie “24Carat x 3 BearsOG”. Frost is starting to show up on the buds... it had taken some time to start i feel.

In regards to nutes... From day 41 to day 46 she had been getting nutes at 617 ppm / 1.2 EC (514 MC1, 70 tap, 33 epsom). Then on day 46 (Friday) I switched to 559 ppm / 1.12 EC (70 tap, 400 MC v1, 57 CalMag Pro, 32 Bud Explosion v1). With this I hope to get a better flowering nute ratio.

Since Friday I’ve also brought RH to be 45-60% with an average of 50-55% during lights on - the black thremohydrometer in the pic is off by about 7%), and max 65 during lights off. Temps still between 20-25 C / 68 - 77 F… This doesn’t seem to be in VPD optimal range but I was getting moisture between leaves when letting RH higher.

In regards to the light... On Friday I set light distance so highest top would get 600 ppfd and have DLI of 38 there, and 380 ppfd at the lowest top for a DLI of 24 there. Tallest top stretched a little bit and today was getting 680 pfd (DLI of 44) and lowest wast getting 400 ppfd (DLI 25). Because I plan to stay at a max of 38 DLI, I tried moving the light today to be back at where it was on Friday but failed and got frustrated (don’t have a ratchet system and what I have now is a pain to adjust), so now tallest top is getting 560 ppfd for a max DLI of 36.28.

With all this said, here are some pics taken today (about 2.5 hours before lights off):

And turned off the lights for a minute to get some pics with flash.

@Mañ'O'Green , how do you see her? I will be mixing a new nute batch tomorrow…. should I keep her as she is or do you suggest any additional tweaks (to nutes, light or other things)?

As always, thanks to all that pass by here. Any comment is appreciated.

Thanks for passing by! Today I prepared a new batch of nutes and increased MC1 (from 400 ppm to 500, and will see if can eventually reach 550) because i noticed today she started loosing her green at the bottom a bit faster than she was before lowering and letting the MC1 a few days at 400 ppms ... that plus the higher DLI seemed to justify increasing the MC1 again. She has been filling up though! Lets hope she takes the new nutes well (including 50 ppms of CalMag Pro and 30 of BE).

Greenleaf says you should not need extra cal mg if you follow their feed schedule. BUT I do not and it looks that you do not either. So I know that we will need to supplement the cal/mg the entire grow. Not an issue. Good job on spotting the yellowing and rust spots. Good grow my friend.

I've used only MC with other plants and as long as pH is in check, it can work very well by itself i think... but buds do turn out too leafy for my taste. So I'm trying to change that this time around and it seems adding the CalMag and Bud Explosion is necesary for this.
But I've haven't been able to feel comfortable using CalMag since i've noticed my Cal or Mag problems were mostly due to pH... but other growers use it so freely and at a much higher dosage that i decided to give it a chance and well I'm following Mañ'O'Green's advice to use it at max 50 ppms / 0.1 EC so I think it will turn out well.
