Looks like you know what’s up,my second grow I just fed my plants black strap molasses and some powered kelp in the water,I had a pretty good grow
I didn’t ph anything just winged it lol

this is my 3rd grow I’m taking this one to heart I’m PHing everything even the tap water,fill a gallon of water let it sit for 24 hours then add some ph up or down,to be honest I don’t know if I need to ph the tap water but I do have some problems with the sour kush last week,leafs started to turn yellow
was very strange the soil was reading ph of 7.0 on the sour kush the rest of the plants were reading 6.5

I fed them all the same nutes as well,I did a flush on the advice of one of the members here,everything is back on track,
I’ve been using the ocean forest soil,I start the small plants on black gold I found the ocean forest did burn the smaller plants
I bought the fox farms trio pack,I’ve only been using the grow big and big bloom,I haven’t use the tiger bloom

I haven’t done any thing to the plants,just took off the yellow leafs,
I’m still thinking about forcing one of the gorilla glues to grow some pollen
 
I had been reading my ass off on the subject and been going through lots of grow journals and threads in here and it has helped me immesly after my failed 1st grow.
i am hoping for small to decent yields but with good potency and nug structure.
happy growing :)
 
Couple of pics from today,
I’m pretty happy with this grow so far,had a couple of problems with a couple of leafs turning yellow on the sour kush but after flushing seem to be back on track,
One of the gorilla glues is almost as tall as the sour kush the other one is pretty short for some strange reason,maybe it will catch up,
Everything is in 3 gallon pots except the little blueberry I have to repot
The tent is packed now,now I have the new exhaust fan in there as well,

anyone know where to buy extra tent poles for a 32-32-6ft tent I think I need extra poles to hang some lights on

That's pretty crazy having to run lights like that . Lol!

I know seems to be working out well lol they been like that the whole grow,

I need to try find some extra poles to try hang them a different way.i can’t find any that fit my size of tent online
 
How tall are they? 3 feet 4?
the sour kush must be 5ft tall
the tent is 6ft high and there’s not much room for more stretching lol one
Of the gorilla glues is catching
Up the other one is short,then I have a smaller
Blueberry and a small cream still growing
 
I’m having problems with this sour kush plant,all the other plants are fine and I’m feeding them all the same,

I just give it some tap water that I let sit for 24 hours

and tested the run off and that’s what these meters are reading,I don’t know what it is,this never happened in my other 2 grows,I’m feeding the plants grow big and big bloom,half of what it says in the fox farms chart,I have tiger bloom as well but I’ve not used it,plants are in ocean forest soil

they other plants are fine,is it the nutes
Maybe I should go back to feeding them black strap molasses and powered kelp lol
Like my first 2 grows
