"Day 3 of Flowering
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well it has been three days in 12/12 and transition formula.
For new viewers, my current nutrient solution for 3 gallon of res water is:
Botanicare Pro Grow: 4tsp
Botanicare Pro Bloom: 4tsp
Tap water with a ph of 7.5 190ppm
2 tsp of pH down
...for a total of ~650 ppm and pH of 6.
Temp is 83 F
Res Temp 70F
Humidity 35%
Lighting 12/12 with 125W CFL from Hydrofarm
Dual Output airpump with 4 an 6 inch airstones.
mixed signs of gender. I cant tell if it had tiny balls or just pods that release hairs. They are too small to tell but 3 nodes up from the base, a set of branches have a small white hair, which is the only one visible at the time.
In 5 days i am going to do a res change with the following nutrient solution:
Botanicare Pro Bloom: 8tsp
Do you think i can get away with 9tsp? Ive read that when blooming, plants can handle high amounts of nutes.
Do any of you recommned any additional nutrients when blooming? Have any of you had great success with Botanicare's Sweetener? It struck my eye at the hydro store the other day when i was picking up the blooming nutes.
Im going to try to get my hands on a better camera this week so ill have better quality photos. Im sure you all want to see where the littles hairs come up from.
Thanks for stopping by and ill be glad to answer any questions or concerns.
Constructive Critisism Appreciated."
