Growing fast. Gonna bump up the ppm's a smidge.

Halfway through week 5 of flower. Some stats:
  • Lights pulling 320W from wall; roughly 35 DLI or 800 PPFD. Also using a far-red initiator puck for 15 mins after lights out.
  • Watering/feeding every ~3days at 550ppm. Pro-Mix HP tends to hold onto nutes, so I've found there's three general strategies: (1) higher ppm's with 2 plain waterings in between feeds; (2) medium ppm's with 1 plain watering in between feeds; and (3) low ppm's every feed.
  • Mega Crop 2-part + GH Diamond Nectar (Humic Acids) + AN Bud Candy + Yucca Powder
  • I've stopped adjusting pH. The Mega Crop in my RO water gives me around 6.3, which is good for Pro-Mix HP. I used to try adjusting down closer to 5.8, but the way I see it, this is just "fighting" the dolomite lime that's in the Pro-Mix to prevent the peat from becoming acidic.

These are currently drying on racks in my closet. Harvest report to come in ~10 days. Stay tuned....

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!

The Critical Kush (tronGrows #8) has been curing for ~5 weeks. Total dry weight was 15.5oz. This is the closest I've come to a pound, and this was definitely my most productive grow to date.

My drying/trimming/curing process is as follows:
  • Plants were dried in mesh drying racks for ~10 days. Temps/RH around 18C/60%.
  • Dry trimmed over ~3 days; kept trimmed buds+stems in paper bags while others were being trimmed.
  • Flip bags every ~12 hours; buds spend maybe 2 days in paper bags
  • Trim remaining stems and store in grove bags for ~6 weeks (humidity meter in bags say ~60%)
  • Move ounces as required to to 1L mason jars with 55% Integra humidity packs.
I'll be cracking into this stuff soon.

Meanwhile, I'm currently 19 days into flowering of tronGrows #9.... Bruce Banner #3!!! Stay tuned!
 
#9 - Bruce Banner #3
Welcome to tronGrows #9 - Bruce Banner #3 by Original Sensible Seeds.
I'm currently at the end of week 3 of flower. Here are some notes:
  • 4 plants in 5gal pots of Pro-Mix HP.
  • Mega Crop 2 part, ~500ppm, yucca powder, humic acid. Very light feeding with occasional plain waterings in-between.
  • 2x HLG 135 v2 R-spec; currently pulling ~310Wac; ~700 PPFD; lights 12/12.
  • Vegged for ~6 weeks. Under a SCROG, two rounds of toppings. Continued tucking under SCROG for a week or so after flip.
  • Pruning on day 10 and 20. Mild defoliation as needed.
  • Regrets: I wish I had flipped to flower a few days earlier, and that I was slightly more aggressive with pruning. Things are a little crammed (a common problem of mine, ha) but I'll deal with it.
