Veg Room #1
We still don't have the auto above ground, but I remain hopeful. The seed site was sprayed really well again this evening.
Today was day 6 of the watering cycle and the 8 Tangies were pretty dry. It was also time to feed them again so they got a full tablespoon of
@GeoFlora Nutrients VEG and were watered to runoff. Following the advanced feeding guide, instead of Terpenator I added Sweet Candy to this watering to add the extra K, with a zing. I also gave a healthy dose of SNS 203, intending to wipe out the bugs for good this time and started back with the SNS 209 in order to build up an immunity in the plants, and I am doing all of this earlier than I ever have before.
A couple of the plants have started sending up node #5, and any day I will be able to get in there and chop it off. We are at 15 days in the room, and we need to see a good strong water cycle this time so we can think about transplanting. Hopefully, the fertilizer two days early will give them the energy to accomplish that.
Veg Room #2
I ordered some new 5 gallon containers that I wanted to try, and they didn't arrive. Tomorrow they say... then we will uppot. They didn't get water today in anticipation of the big uppotting tomorrow. New FFOF was purchased and is at the ready. We will bake the soil before it goes upstairs to be part of the process.
Bloom Room
I stressed them a little last time by trying to see if I could overload with too much K, with a double dose of Sweet Candy and Terpinator. I did get a little tip damage and some leaves curled funny and some pointing downward... but at least I know what that is all about and it doesn't worry me. I just know better now... this stuff I am playing with is very powerful. Soon we will have the Massive and we will be following the recommended feeding schedule.
So, they slowed down a little, and here two days from the last watering, they were not quite as ready as they have been. This looks like a good time for the 1 out of 4 long waterings, so it is good to have another day as a forced delay before I water again, just to pull more oxygen down deep into the roots.
In this last 2 days we did get a little more stretch, but only on a few rogue dominant branches. You can see them in these shots, 2 on one plant and 1 on the other. The rest of the plant, and the others in the room are staying short, but these 3 branches gained another inch in the last 2 days... mostly today. Like I said, the overfeeding stunted them for a day while they mostly concentrated on giving me funny looks.
We are now at day 8 of bloom, and things look amazing. The light has been angled some more to allow more room for the taller plants while still getting close to the shorter ones.
Tonight, I will center in on a few of the plants, and maybe a POTM in the making here... I need to see the picture on the screen first.
Here are the dominant branches that are now providing all of the remaining stretch. I think stretch is about done here. Thanks to the red lights, we remained quite manageably short.
