Getting caught up on this with interest as you're using the same medium, nutes, and lights as me but I've never tried mainlining so it's gonna be good to see that, and I love the Blue Dream, seeing it everywhere and I'd love one. I'm only on page 2 but just wanted to say cheers :peace:
Welcome @Cannacat

Thanks for dropping in hope you have a good read I try and put as much info in to my logs as I can dose come with some stoner jib jib but hey nothing wrong with that there is a few grows in this log takes a few pages to see it all think the blue dream finished on page 21 but not 100% maybe that was the 2nd or 3rd run

Have a good one till next time next update will be at day 28 of flower girls are still drinking like fish so fingers crossed for a big yield

Hey, thanks! I'm not fully caught up, I'm easily distracted and there's a lot of info to get through here, lots to take in. The stoner jib jib helps though lol, makes it more relatable. I definitely want to see how that blue dream turned out, I'd only heard good things until I looked at them a bit more and a few people don't seem to think much of them, but I guess not everyone can like the same things, it'd be boring.

Good luck with your girls, hope you they do you proud. I'm a few days into flower with mine and I thought they'd be thirstier by now, they look ok though, seem happy enough.

Sounds like your going to have big yields coming! Love it when they are drinking like crazy like that, although having to ph all that water sucks. My well comes out at 8.5+ so always have to ph.
I can only hope but yes anytime they are big drinkers normally means big yield yeah my ph is odd this season its starting at like 7.4 then i add all my food and that gives me a ph of around 5.7 i add a little PH up to get it to 6.0 but i found it's dropping a little this run

i normally always have to add PH down never PH up very odd it must be the silica that i am using that puts my PH up to around 8.4 i think that might be making my food unstable from the start it has made my PH drop after a few days and i hate using PH up or down but it's all good the plants seem happy so can't ask for more just wish they didn't strech so much in the middle

i would be able to keep the lights a bit closer but i know now the LEC needs to be closer next grow so they dont stretch as much

Hey DN, what light have you got running in there?
Those girls are looking superb mate!
Hey chipper hows things

I have two Hi-par 400v - 600w hps one each side Philips green power globes

And a Hipar 315w LEC in the middle its a full spectrum light and its doing great

The girls seem really happy and they are already starting to get huge so I need to make sure I fin out some of the fan leafs and keep the air flow on top and bottle high

Hows your outdoor best going

things are good mate. The blue shiva is getting closer. Couple more weeks maybe?

Your plants are looking magic with that lighting. My mate just got himself a hipar 315w. They have good reviews and your pics are backing it! Might get myself one to try.

Great to hear yeah they are doing good under the light I might get two more and run them in summer to help with the heat and use the 600s in the colder months
There not cheap cheapest I could get them for you would be 650 that's for the ballast lamp fitting and a globe

Thanks for dropping in bro yeah they work great just make sure to keep them close they dont put out much heat so keeping them close is all good I love the next 4 weeks of grow the bulking is always the best thing to watch
