Day 65
Ok, thought i'd update again since the progress has been just phenomenal.
That last pic is a typical example of what the flowers are beginning to look like.
Is it normal to have lots of skinny white worm-like things coming out? cos that's what's happening. I was taken aback at first, didn't know if they'd start wiggling at me. ew.
Anyway, i held off on the nutes for two waterings and then on the third i added two litres of water to my normal mix (bringing it to 6 litres in total); while still keeping to the 5mls of A and 5mls of B into the mix.
The burn doesn't seem to have progressed at all but also has not gone away; i'm thinking it will be there forever, like a scar.
In other news, i've gotten some bright yellow leaves cropping up at the bottom of Christine Kochanski and although i realise that's mobile elements going to the bud sites, it feels like it's a little too early for that to happen and to progress so quickly (three big fan leaves have become yellow in the space of 4 days) as such, i have ordered some Cal-Mag and will be adding that to my mix as soon as it arrives which i estimate will be Tuesday. One thing that troubles me are some purple spots on those yellow leaves (we're talking like 5 small spots) now it could be nothing but it could be something evil; purple on the green parts of plants makes me very nervous.
They've grown so much, i'm hoping that they'll soon slow down or even stop with the vertical because my light is up almost as high as it can go now; i've probably got about an inch to play with there.
I went to look up who Christine kochanski is. I was curious I had to.
Google all the names; there is a pattern.
Midsection means 'in the past' in plant world. In your girl's world, it's probably a reaction from before the flowering light. That little stress from 3 weeks ago with your midgies could have been just about enough to curl a few leaves here.
Blue Man, I mean it. Unless you wake up tomorrow and every single leaf has been curled to a yellow crisp, you are doing A-OK as a dad.
When you take more pics of your beautiful girls wearing bows, nudge me quick! I assume the photos will happen within the next two days?

I'd have thought that would be 'Midway'... i meant the middle
Is there any chance you got your nutes on those leaves when feeding? I think is what Peyton was thinking...
Did you check your PH? I always check PH first when I see a problem.
After that, I'd hold back on nutes a few days and see what happens. If it doesn't advance, I'd know there was an issue of nute burn. If it advances more, I'd know it was a deficiency and start feeding nutes again as normal.
When i make up my mixture it's always in the kitchen, and usually just after i've watered them (i like to stand the mixture for a day or two cos i find it normalizes the PH without me having to 'PH-Down' it).
The only way i can check PH is by collecting run-off water, which i do from time to time, last time was on the previous nute-feed (so by now, 4 feeds ago) and it was normal; though i am chemical testing so i only have a colour reading to go by and can't drill down into the numbers. For my next grow i might grab one of the high tech thingies.
<--passing this over to you. You are a good Dad.
Hope you are doing well?
