Lookin good man.Now that you hit the screen Its gonna get interesting.I may have to make a little net for my next round
Temps dropped down to 68°F and ppm is 887Whats temps like with lights off? Looks like maybe a little P deficiency,it will hit the older fans first.Some red stems can be seen too. Overall plant looks good...hows your EC?
Will do. I was thinking about using the lucas formula but since this is my first grow I was just going to follow the box. Also one more question. I have roughly $100 - $125 to spend on lighting and was looking at the Mars300 what do you think? I have 4 cfls plus an led a friend gave me. I had 6cfls but it was to hot. What would you do?Im using a very similar nutrient program right now.Whats your base water ppm or are you using ro?
And are you using the gh grow? Depending on what you are using for water ( ec) heres what I think you should do.
Make a solution of 1/2 gall or 1.9 liters and add 2ml of flora micro and 4ml of flora bloom.If you are using r/o or low ec tap this should come out to ~1.1 ec.Ph that to 6.2 and feed.
This is a low strength lucas formula,it contains everything you will need at this point.However im finding sometimes Its nessesary to raise Ph a bit to hit some nutrient sweet spots.So start Ph to 6.2 this should increase P uptake and hopefully stop this problem now before it progresses.Also you should be able to maintain that 1:2 ratio of micro/bloom until harvest just raise Ppms as needed.If you like,a small amount of koolbloom added to that .2ec worth or so,can be added to this profile for bulking in flower after stretch stops.
Heh I have a badboy t5 6bulb that I love but any old t5ho fixture will work 6 bulb if you can fit it.Get some 3000k and 5000k bulbs to toss is there...and youre good you can run those right down close to the plants.I think youll be happier with those than with a mars.Those t5 fixtures are pretty affordable,bulbs are about $10 each and last ~20000 hrs.Id still be growing with mine if I didnt just get bored with em lol.I saw an angled 8 bulb unit the other day that would actually fit in my space and it made me consider it.HO t-5 can grow some seriously potent buds man dont discount em.Great will do on the nutes and thanks for the heads up on the light. I'll be looking into a t5 ho, any recommendations?
Thanks man, it's only with your guidance that I've even gotten this far. I really appreciate all of your help.Awesome good job dude! Keep her rolling
