Day 34 of veg (weekly) update:
Pruning the blueberry roots and supercropping her in three spots didnt slow her down a bit ... lmfao shes a beast and already working on filling the screen. The critical cure is at the screen now and the trainwreck is aboit 2 inches away.

Refreshing the res and also upping the nutes, I removed about 1/2 the nutes from the res (a 17.5L bottle) and replaced it with fresh bottle of RO with GH Armor Si at the recommended dose then added Cal-Mag+ at rec dose of 1ml/L. I then added diamond nectar at the rec dose too, and half the dose of GH B'Essentials (micro and submicro elements) and 4mls (rec dose) of GH Floraliciois. I then finally added FloraNova grow at full dose. The final ppm went up to 1050 with the pH at 5.9 (after diluting with the old res nutrient solution). As ya know I do this so that i dont shock the roots too much plus because I run a live res and I want to keep the beneficial microbes herds in ;-)
The top off res got 2x (17.5) bottles (35 Liters total) of RO with half the dose of Armor Si, full dose Cal-Mag+ and enough grow to bring the ppm up to 850.
Til next update .... Happy growin ;-)

Quick update:
I started training the Trainwreck and I may supercrop it very soon. Also, I am happy to say that Amnesia Lemon hit the screen this morning. From the looks of things, I will probably flip the lights by October 1st if not earlier ;-) the screen is filling up quickly
Check out the supercropped critical cure. I bandaged that area due to a tear in the stem. But no worries, shes handling it very well and recovered bouncing back very quickly :-)
Happy growin yall

Another quick update:
The blueberry is stretching like crazy still. To reduce her stretching and also since im flipping soon, so hoping for better light penetration to reach to the lower smaller branches to help them grow, I decided to put up the 350w OpticLights and fire it up ;-) ... its bright as heck in here with 950W total :-) . I also addes another fan for better air circulation and increased the exhaust fan speed a little! The Amnesia Lemon is getting trained now too ;-)

Day 41 of veg (weekly) update:
Not much to report. Training the girls to fill the screen is going well as you can see in the pic. A few leaves were removed here and there and also from below the screen to allow for better light penetration.
ppm is still at 1050 and the pH was brought down a little yesterday to 5.6 and it'll be allowed to rise up slowly to max of 6.1 but will usually stabelize around 5.8-5.9.
Til next updat, happy growin n have a nice weekend :-)

The topoff res just got 2x (17.5L) bottles (35L total) of RO with half the dose of GH Armor Si (4mls each) and full dose of Cal-Mag+ (17mls each) and enough grow to raise the ppm to 850.
Here is a shot of the pinched and bent Amnesia Lemon which got pinched this morning and another recent shot of the whole screen filling up very quickly. The Trainwreck got pinched also today (a little ago) but actually that middle shoot that got pinched is very small from the FIM that I am not sure its going to really form a huge knuckle....the same goes with the Amnesia Lemon!

After less than 7 weeks of vegging I decided today to flip the lights and will count tomorrow october 1st as day 1 of flowering :-) . The girls in the back are filling the screen and wont have a problem catching up to the two in the front once they start stretching ;-)
They're all hungry as heck (ppm going down slowly) and thirsty drinking about 35 Liters of nutrient solution a week or less than a week hah. Tomorrow I will refresh the res main res and fill the topoff res as well upping the ppm and preparing for growth explosion ;-)
Til next update, happy growin yall :-)

Day 1 of flowering (weekly) update:
Not much since yesterday and the girls are growing just fine reacting well to the flip yesterday!

Refreshing the res and also upping the nutes, I removed about 1/2 the nutes from the res (a 17.5L bottle) and replaced it with fresh bottle of RO with GH Armor Si at the recommended dose then added Cal-Mag+ at rec dose of 1ml/L. I then added diamond nectar at the rec dose too, and half the dose of GH B'Essentials (micro and submicro elements) and 4mls (rec dose) of GH Floraliciois. I then added FloraNova bloom (ran out of the grow finally) at full dose. The final ppm went up to 1200 with the pH at 5.9 (after diluting with the old res nutrient solution). As ya know I do this so that i dont shock the roots too much plus because I run a live res and I want to keep the beneficial microbes herds in ;-)
The top off res got 2x (17.5) bottles (35 Liters total) of RO with half the dose of Armor Si, full dose Cal-Mag+ and floralicious and enough bloom to bring the ppm up to 1050
Til next update .... Happy growin ;-)

Day 8 of flowering (weekly) update:
Not much to report. The screen is filling nicely. The girls drank 35 Liters in a week. Another 2 bottles of (17.5L each) of RO with half dose of Armor Si, full dose Cal-Mag+ and full dose floralicious with enough FloraNova Bloom to get the ppm to 1000 (down 50 from last time as I noticed the ppm rising slowly) were added to the topoff res. After 2 weeks from the flip (preferably when the girls slowdown their stretch) I will flush them and the system for a couple of days before i raised the ppm back up to full throttle with the use of KoolBloom ;-)

Quick update
Girls are slowing down their stretch for sure and its showing in the ppm rising slightly. Im not training them anymore and theyre starting to shoot out pistils :-)
I will replace the MH bulb with an HPS bulb by this weekend and will probably flush them for a day or two to help boost their nutrient uptake afterwards ;-)
An elastic screen was placed above the scrog screen to later help support some fatter buds (hoping to get some donkey kongs in this groom)
Happy growin yall

Day 15 of flowering (weekly) update:
The girls are starting to form buds and the pistils are shooting out! Therefore, today I swapped the MH bulb with an HPS bulb (the last pic is of the canopy after I fired up the HPS.
I emptied out the system and filled it with RO water with GH's FloraKleen and will allow this to run for a day to 48 hours max flushing the girls and cleaning the system from all debris build up! I will then empty it out and replace it with a fresh mix of bloom nutrients with all the additives we have here and will allow the buds to take off! Here are some pics of the canopy and some bud sites and finally of the canopy after I swapped the MH with the HPS
On a side note, I know I said I was running FloraNova bloom start to finish (since its good enough, available for me here and cheap too plus many use it start to finish and it works just fine) but then I started with the grow (because well I had it and didnt want to waste it). Well a couple of days ago I found a half to 1/3 full bottles of Canna nutes bloom A and B from a previous run. Those have better NPK ratio for cannabis (i read somewhere that cannabis prefer more K than P during bloom and canna nutes certainly has that ratio compared to FloraNova Bloom). Therefore, and since I have it anyway and dont want to waste it and since also it creates less of a buildup when compared to FloraNova, I decided to use the canna nutes bloom in my topoff res til I run out :-)
