Lighting Mephisto Grape Crinkle x2 first bigsm0 Auto Cob Grow 24 hrs lights on

You could try to back the cobs off a bit and start preparing for a little calmag.

I have some earth juice oily cann on hand it's cal mag + humic acid and 0 nitrogen. you think I should do it before seeing a deficiency, like a preventive type thing? I never really had cal mag issues and only use it if a problem pops up. You usually start full blast or 1/4 strength? They haven t had any type of nutrients yet, but I was gonna hit them with some big bloom and grow big quarter strength next feeding. I'm trying to push these things with the lights, I have so many beans, you think if I leave the lights where they are, they won't grow upward? As of now til this day they been praying to the light with no noticeable bleaching to me..
 
Day 10. Took the reflectors off the cobs now they are hanging 20" above plants, both plants are getting 300 umols at top of growth. @BigSm0 now I'm only getting 26 mols a day, which is what the northeast gets in the September outdoors. 400 umols is more like outdoors in May. I kind of wanted to push these harder what u think? I love this freaking map! Lol.

I did something yesterday I've never done and it worked very well, I'm in fabric pots and watered from the bottom. Brand new drainage trays so they are clean I just filled the tray a few times for each plant, they sucked up what it needed and the soil was very evenly distributed with water.

And a better look at my tent. I have a 210 cfm inline fan running on the lower setting and it's sucking my tent walls, I love it, paired with a 200cfm phresh filter. Shout out to @Green Goblin for pointing me in the right direction in getting the flange to connect the inline fan to carbon filter, appreciate it buddy!

I have the carbon filter outside of tent due to size restrictions (2×2 tent) Inline fan is sucking through tent (exhaust) and blowing through carbon filter. So duct from top tent through inline fan through carbon filter. Not the ideal setup from what I researched, but its very clean. guess I'll find out when they are in flower!

Day 12.

They both got their first dose of nutrients today, 1 tsp of grow big, 1 tsp of cal mag, and 2 tbsp of big bloom. That's split between both plants and they both got 1/2 gallon with very little runoff. Can't wait to see how they take it, I'll post up pics tomorrow or Sunday.

I put the reflectors back on so they are getting major light 400 ųmols at canopy. I'm probably living dangerous cus I'm pushing them with the light pretty hard but at least I'm trying lol...

I kept hitting the top growth with the bottom of the watering cup, that's why the leaf looks like that hopefully I didn't hurt it, I'm so uncoordinated it ain't funny lol.

All my grows start off like this not sure why, everyone else's plants look like they are as wide as the pots, they always do in the long run anyway just seems weird maybe it's how I water or something
 
In soil, I usually water every 6 days..When I do water, I cover a large area so as the soil is drying the roots are seeking moisture in turn getting bigger. Just how I do it, seems to work..Looking good in here bro :thumbsup:
