re: Icemud's Intelligent Gro 2 LED Grow With V-Scrog - Going for 1lb & Beyond!
Hey, Happy Monday Everyone. I hope all of you had a great weekend!
Today makes Day 16 of flowering and I am so far really impressed with the Generation 2 Intelligent Gro's and how things are looking.
Just as a reminder I am running the lights on 100% full without the controller and currently I am flowering with a 12.25/11.75 flowering schedule. I really wanted to see what they were capable of producing and so far, I'm very impressed. It honestly at this point is looking similar to when I had my 1000w HID setup going as far as growth and the way the overall vscrog screen is looking.
I turned off a few channels of light today while I was doing some maintenance work in the garden today, and I thought It kind of looked like a cool photo so I took a few photos.. I mainly removed any dead or discolored leaves under the screen as well as any branches that were never going to make it to the light. It definitely made a good difference in airflow under the canopy.
I also did a very mild defoliation on top of the canopy. I wanted to just make a little better airflow as well as help allow light to some of the buds that were being hidden by fan leaves.
On the photos you will see some of the buds have some damage on them, like little brown spots and holes... I don't know why but I used a very light dose/foliar spray of bloomit and it seemed to have burned the leaves...mostly on the harlequin. Its not bad and it oddly didn't effect the pistils which usually are the things that I find show burning quickly but I don't think I will be using bloomit anymore. I will stick to amaze, pgr and my other ingredients.
So all last week I was feeding my plants just a mix of cal/mag and epsom salt and so this week I wanted to give the soil a mild dose of some organics. I really love my hydrolyzed fish so I have 5 gallons of r/o water bubbling... what I will do is each time I feed my plants daily, I usually give a total of 1 1/2 gallons, and each day I add this back, so all week I will be feeding them but the doses decrease. Then the following week back to the epsom and cal/mag. So far it seems to be working rather well.
So to the water I added 40ml of 2-4-0 hydrolyzed fish, potassium silicate 5ml, organic b 40ml 0-0-1, hydrolyzed squid 2-3-1, humboldt bloom 0-10-0 10% Ca, and 40ml of organic cal/mag 5:1,
Other than that I am really impressed so far with the scrog and I look forward to what it brings.
Here are the photos of the ladies after a little haircut today.. The spots on the leaves are from the foliar spray a few days ago.
I've been following your YouTube channel & i can say it has defiantly helped me understand a lot I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work amazing job icemud
