I forgot to mention that i filled the topoff res with RO with full dose Cal-Mag+ and enough FN grow to raise the ppm to 600 and the pH is at 5.6. Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/
Quickest update Blueberry hit pubery and showing her pubes Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/
Quick update Check out the growth in such a short period of time .... Amnesia lemon got the FIM today ... her roots haven't hit the nutes solution yet ... but they will by end of tomorrow at the latest Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/
Bottom left is like LET'S GOOOO. Lmao Is it just the pictures or do they need a little extra nitrogen in their life? https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/Steviodaddios-Medical-Perpetual.1372676/
Lmao I know right?! Oh its probably just the pic. The new growth os definitely lighter and darkens as it gets larger and older. No sign of deficiency yet .... ill be upping the feed soon as the Amnesia lemon roots hit the nutrient solution Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/
Today, the Amnesia Lemon roots hit the bottom res finally .... the girls are eating more nutes than available (ppm going down) so i increased the topoff res ppm to 750 and increased the main res ppm to 950 by simply adding grow nutes to each reservoir Heres a pic of the groom to compare the growth since yesterday Til next update .... happy growin yall ;-) Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/
Another quick update: So this morning I decided its time to clear out the groom and put the SCROG screen up. The roots of the blueberry, critical cure and trainwreck got pruned as ya can see in the 1st pic this is to prevent clogging the tubing later. But in the next few weeks of veg and flowering the roots will grow back even bushier The blueberry got pinched SUPERCROPed at the main 3 shoots as you can see in the pics. The middle of the screen right above it is all clear for the small lower shoots to fill, as you can see in the last pic Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/
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 Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
Thanks man Right now its just a 600w MH in an 8" glass tube (with wing reflectors) with an 8" exhaust fan. Once i flip the light to 12/12 ill keep the MH for the blue spectrum during the stretch period (the blue helps reduce the stretch) before i change it to an HPS and add a 350w cobs 4000 color spectrum to mix with the yellow hps .... there will be 950w during flowring mixing both HID and LED AND mixing yellow and blue hoping to get the best of all worlds here lol Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
Quick one .... i did some defoliation under the screen removing those giant fan leaves from the blueberry and critical cure, those leaves that are blocking the light from the shoots below. I also pinched the critical cure and supercropped it bending it under the screen pictures to come with the next update Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
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 Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
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 Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
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 Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
A quick one here .... the Amnesia Lemon got pinched and SUPERCROPPED this am Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/
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 Check out my new QuadStrain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1416641/ and my previous TriStain grow : https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1383100/

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 ....
