Let’s not break tradition an take a rip on your favorite pipe or joint , bong ect and let’s do an update

Today is day 8 of flowering in the main tent
Group shot

I installed a net more for support then anything

The back row is @Tonygreen headband x gorilla bubble bx
Now they are beasts and beastie beasts at that :thinking:

They are growing faster then the bubble monkey in the front row
Leaves are large and stems are thick and sturdy .

The bubble monkey the 1 on the left is keeping up with the back row
But her sister is smaller with compact node spacing
I did clone her and plan to veg her in the small tent tent for a long time
Small tent

I did top her , and as you see , she is being trained .
I did not remove any lower branches . I plan doing a scrog net in there .

All plants are at the same feed 20/20/20. + 15.5/0/0 ( jacks ) Plus cal mag , Epson salts ppms are only 398 and they seem to love it and are not hungry

Babies
Testers seem to be just fine

Leaf from HB x GB

Low ppms
No burn ,not hungry ( continuous feed ) no deficiencies,

:thinking:

Cyco says 5.5 to 5.8. I don’t like ph down to much. Lol your adding to much. I think it messes the ph meter up sometimes. Feel oily.

I got a little space I could put one on top. I have looked at what you got going on. I have gotten some ideas. I’m running 2 4x4 and one 2x4. It makes things tight. Lol. You are. Lol but you have it set up nice.

I found this…

“During the bloom period we should use a pH range from 6 to 6.2 for a more efficient nutrient uptake. During the last weeks of this stage, we can raise the pH value to 6.3-6.4 .”

I agree. 100%. But. Cyco says 5.5-5.8. I’m giving it a chance. 6.3 is what they want.

I have talked to them. The reason I was told it was because of the Synthetics. I’m giving it a chance. I was just about called bullheaded. I was told to use the silica. I know what your thinking. I’m right there with you on that. I ran it at 6.5 to 6.3 and was having lock out.
