Indoor Mephisto- Strawberry Nuggets

Just caught up and they look good overall. The cupping is really strange because with your temperature and light distance, there shouldn't be any heat stress. They do fine up to 85F.

Royal Queen has an article that suggests it may be an excess of nutrients. They're pretty reportable, so see if they respond when you give them half of what they're getting. If that works, kind of dial it in from there.

 
Hello Mates! Day 31 has been posted. Feel free to drop a like or share some feed back if your enjoying the grow. Based on the grows I follow, I am either extremely unpopular or these updates do not notify anyone....?

Hello! Thank you. I am excited to see the end results. I dont expect much as these things are growing crazy as hell and I feel like they need to be tamed, but I will resist lol. I think you may be right on the Nutes. I have a bad habit of hitting them hard right out the gate with like 500ppm of nutes and ramping it up from there. We also have my tap water at a rough 250ppm even after the small boy filter. I am sure that will cause all sorts of unknowns. I did get the breakdown of my water and it doesnt seem to bad, just really hard I guess....

I have that same problem. Hard to resist giving them food because it feels like they could be getting bigger and you wanna help. If your tap water is hard maybe consider switching to RO or distilled. I just get a few gallons of distilled water whenever I go grocery shopping. A lot of stores have machines out front that dispense RO water for about 50 cents a gallon

Quick Q's: are you at 3 g/Gal of MC1 right now? what about BE?
Yo thanks good sir! and I apologize, i have not had any updates on this but we are getting close to harvest and I dont want to leave anyone hanging if they are interested.
Regarding the MC, I was running it @ 3g/gal and than BE @1g/gal, but I dialed it back. I actually ran into a massive calcium deficiency and I suspect it was 2 fold. Too much K causing lock out and my PH was stable at 5.8. So we switched it out like 2 weeks ago to straight MC @ 4g/gal and have stabilized my PH to 6.3 for better intake and added a little bit of cal/mag supplement. Its honestly too hard to tell if it helped, we are like a week from harvest so I expect the leaves to start turning at this point anyways.

Anyways...Day 59!
