The ladies needed some food today.
The
Cal-Mag issue has worsened, so as well as increasing the Calcium, I'm also endeavouring to reduce the Nitrogen.
It's not going to happen overnight ... but hopefully we can put an end to this anarchy soon.
The GH Gro has been dropped completely, to reduce the N ... [i.e.
Nitrogen
negative ]
I've also opted to NOT use the AN CalMag+, due to it's high N content ... [i.e.
Nitrogen
negative ]
Instead I'm relying on the Calcium in the Compact Buds to supply the necessary supplement ... [i.e.
Calcium
positive ]
This feed is also lighter - EC @ 1.8 - again, to reduce the N content, and also to encourage the girls to start thinking about putting auto-cannabalism into the nutritional equation - it's time they showed a little independence in sourcing the nutrients they need as they head towards the finish line, so I want them to suck it out of the soil, and if its not there, start getting it from within. ... [i.e.
Nitrogen
negative ]
The 'sugar' and plumping goodies were still maintained by way of Bud Candy and Big Bud.
I couldn't help myself, and got a little 'handsy' with the girls ... helping myself to a little fondle and squeeze of their developing buds.
Was pleasantly surprised that although the
Sweet Trainwreck Auto looks small in size,
they are firm and pert to the touch.
In fact, pretty much every bud I caressed was firmer than I imagined they would be.
Compact and perfectly formed.
... and don't even get me started with
the scent it left on my fingertips ...
heavenly!
