The canopy is staying fairly even tho with lots of weights moving every 3rd day


003.jpg004.jpg005.jpg

under the skirt, lota action happening down under, bases getting big and limbs spreading.


012.jpg011.jpg

the canopy is thick and healthy with lots of bud sights showing up

014.jpg018.jpg

the begining!!!

ive done nothing different other than last res change used cal mag in res to 100ppm before adding nutes, brought total ppms to 1650 and holding. ph at 5.8 and steady. 3 days no change in nutes or ph but drinkin lots of water. i tested ph and ppm meter and was dead nut on, guess the balance is perf!!

q to all??? how long usual to see flowering, also if u know GDP how much stretch to expect? i dont think too much looking at structure of plant.

the olive oil plant is double the size of the others, wish i knew what it was. ive got clones so it wont get away.

Wow! 4tatude plants are looking amazing. Just looking at ur setup and how well it's going I'm probably going to be an identical grow to urs in hydro. Keep up the great work!

yea nice stought branches, strong as they are will take quiet a cola to weigh them over, im hoping :)
ive got 5 that are the grapy phino, then another that was supposed to be the same but is def different. see olive oil.
nothing like the other 5, dif leaf, dif branching, dif growth, nothing even close to others. its 2x the size of the reg phinos.
may be wrong but i think i got a 707 headband thrown in and didnt know it. i just dont know.

i set up the cal mag liketou sugested and seems to be the ticket. they are doing great, i can see the difference. they also take in more nutes with the added cm.
more nute uptake=stronger healthier plants=bigger colas=winner!!!

Wassup 4tatude. I've recently been having problems with my ph. I tried flushing with 300ppm pHed to 5.0 to correct pH but with no affect. Still at 6.5. Really worried and I'm thinking about flushing more tom when I get more water. I know where I was going wrong, when my friend from the local hydro shop told me I was flushing with too high ppm. My last flush on sat I flushed with 900ppm pHed to 5.8. And the run-off was 6.5. Didn't correct it right away. Noticed some deficiencies today so I started flushing. But it didn't help bring the pH down at all even after 6gal of water pHed to 5.0.

damn g sorry to hear that, just flush with neutral ph water with no nutes untill it just runs outa the pot, im not talking about a little i mean a lot,really flush. then check ph on drainage and see where your at. i grow tomatoes in soil and i just set the waterhose in the bucket for a few min when flushing. builds up salts fast in soil jmo. thats one thing about hydro adjustment is only a dropper away. keep informed im hoping for a great recovery. good luck

ATT IF GIVING ADVICE ON THIS THE GROW IS IN COCO NOT SOIL!! SOMEONE HELP MY BUDDY G37 OUT...MY BAD IN THE FOLLOWING POST.
G37 i just realized what you said re ph level at 6.5, i was not fully awake as i should have been. look on page 5 in my journal i think and you will find a chart on ph. for soil the ph needed for max nute uptake and least amount of lock out is 6.5. my mind is stuck in hydro where 6 is max and 5.8 is target. you may have things under controll and dont realize it. check out and lmk.
what chart or ph level are you basing your ph on? im a newbee and really dont have the experience to give real advice based on experience, just what i research. my thoughts..

look at chart on page 5 of my journal, has ph chart for soil says 6.5 is where you need to be, what are you trying for? i grow hydro and shoot for 5.8 but acording to chart you are where you need to be. lmk

Hey there 4tatude. Ya I'm growing in coco so my pH should be at 5.8 just like urs. That's why I was so worried about my girls. I'm having mixed reviews. People tellin me to flush with plain RO water phed to 5.8. And there are others saying not to flush with plain water in coco cuz it washes away buffers that keep the ph stable. And that I'm supposed to add a small amount of base nutes and then ph it to 5.8 and flush with alot of water.
I thought I had coco all figured out by now. But when I was flushing with low ppm water. Around 6gal to be exact on one plant. The pH barely moved. So the confusion continues.

lavazia, welcome to my little journal. the weights were and are used to lst the plants for scrog. ive got from 1/2 oz to 4oz weights that i keep the canopy in check with. i used some twist ties like on a bread bag and can hang like christmas ornaments lol. the different weights are good cause some limbs need more than others. i can move them out further every 3 days or so and it works great!! im a fisherman and these came to mind while wondering how i could lst without tieing down and then re tieing. have bad arthritius in hands and close quarter work like tieing small branches is a chore, this is easy and when they need to be moved its just lift and hang again. im a newbee so if you see something that needs attention please bring it to my attention, and thanks for dropin in. hope you contribute again.

G37 i knew you were in coco just didnt know it should be like water, thought it would be more like in soil. goes to show how much i know. imo buffers or not id flush the fuck outa them and get the ph where it should be, weigh the differences bad ph and nute lock out making plants sick or getting good ph and can re introduce nutes even if not full strenght back so plants dont get sick? couple days upping nutes and your back where you started with very little lost in the process. may get some burn in some of the leaves but it should pull through it. jmo...

Sorry I haven't been back in here. It's been busy the last two weeks with harvests and birthdays and stuff. Looks like things are coming along for you though and I completely forgot to ask peeps to check out your thread. I'll hit up a couple now and see what advice and/or opinions they can pass along.
