Week 8 - beginning of Week 6 in flowering (May 14 - May 21) notes
Preparation:
I have prepared the following nutrient solution for Week 8 -
750 ml of Aqua Flakes A
750 ml of Aqua Flakes B
350 ml Bud Xl
225 ml of H2O2 (29% strength)
40ml of Drip Clean
4 sachets Shooting Powder
Ph: 5.8; DO: 8.9; Temp: 74 degrees; RH: 50%; PPM: 1040
Light cycle - 12/12, water cycle 1.2hrs, every 12 hours (-1 hour shift from light cycle)
Notes:
Trichome development substantially increased over last week, with most plants showing high concentrations near the cola and extending completely to the secondary fan leaves. Initial swelling of the calyxes along with the small areas of coloring was observed (with strains that contain that phenotype). Notable leaf dropping at lower internodes continue as the plant begins its final life cycle phase. Anticipating 2-3 weeks remaining before harvest.
Avg height - 13"
Avg width - 10"
Spider mite infestation has resurged, requiring a complete removal of of the trays and a thorough application of Azatrol. Removed dropped leaf pairs to allow better air flow to the inner branches and buds. No indication of molds or mildew were present. Continuing with active moisture removal from grow area to sustain low relative humidity.
Observation under microscope confirm healthy elongation of the trichome cuticle and engorged disc cell walls. Coloration remains predominately clear with sporadic opaque samples.
Substantial oil production was observed with most specimens, with notable airborne particles present in the immediate grow area and distinct aroma.
Increased H2O2 to 225 ml to promote higher DO levels within the reservoir. The water level in the reservoir dropped to with 10% of capacity on the last day of the weekly cycle. Possible < week water changes may be required if trend continues.
PPM readings remain within 10% of original value throughout the week, indicating that water evaporation is not substantially altering concentration of ions from the nutrient salts in the reservoir. Also providing a strong indication that plant absorption of reservoir mix is increasing. No fresh water was added as dilution was not required.
