Hell... yeah. Could probably start cleaning up the lowers about now. I still cant believe the growth rates in here. U gotta be seeing close to 6" a day

trimmed some under the screen , mostly on warpath 1 (right) , warpath 2 (left) is smaller and not as bullet proof as her sister. the new foliar i'm getting from heavy 16 is especially for use right before stressful incidents. so 21days after flip i'll clean out under the screen good. roots are insane, i'll get some pics at res change. going to do a florakleen two hr flush before going to bloom res.

did some more training today here is some pics, dont know which but some are before and some are after

Like Arizonameds was saying, those trunks are on point. Your growth rates coincide with those trunks. Good stuff man, keep it up. :goodjob:

I would consider flipping now. Keep weaving the plant with the stretch for a week or so. Then boom suprise you will have baseball bats.

A second screen might be in order to manage your height issues. I like the second screen to keep the buds from touching one another thus creating better canopy air flow. Just a thought.

Re: My First Grow Journal OG #18 - Scrog - Recirculating Aero/DWC 600w LED Medical Gr

well lights are off today so no pictures, lights will be off total 36 hrs then come on to 12/12. i decided to stay with the veg base for transtion still going to do florakleen flush cause it needs it. up the fire and the cannazym (my hoses could use it) last week using calimagic. after talking to heavy 16 again today going to try adding half the prime at res change then the other half split up into my daily top offs. also going to cut back on the orca and roots exel till they are dropped in week three in bloom. I might be fliping a little early but with the growth rates i've been experiencing i'd rather error on the side of caution.

Re: My First Grow Journal OG #18 - Scrog - Recirculating Aero/DWC 600w LED Medical Gr

well i'm really liking dealing with heavy 16. how many nute companies are there that the phd who designed the line will give you his cell number and say just text me if you have any questions? bryce is down to earth guy who knows his nutes and knows plants.:high-five:

i've been using earth juice ph down(citric acid) to adjust ph. bryce also told me not to let the ph about 6.5. he said the product will work but your getting in the risk zone. my ph swing at res change is from the super oxygen level in the system and the prime and the microbes. basicllly every res change i brew a batch of microbe tea in my res:hmmmm: probably why my roots are insane.:high-five:

did some training to even out the canopy, probably wont do much more , if i need to i'll pull branches down and anchor to level.

:thanks:

Hi Ronnie -

A few questions... Some you may have answered, but I may have forgotten. How big is your reservoir? 12 ml isn't much Cal/Mag, do you use filtered RO water, or tap? If you use RO, perhaps more cal/mag is in order as they seem to need more cal specifically at transition and beginning of bloom. I use about 4ml per gallon (mfg recommends up to 5ml, not sure on your brand).

Did you use Florakleen for your flush? I have personally discontinued using products like Florakleen mid-grow. I still use it at final flush time. Mid grow, flushing with 1/4 strength nutrients works well and the plants seem to respond well. I've had some issues with minor deficiencies after flushing with Florakleen mid-grow, that have led me to suspect, at least in my system, that it lingers a little and continues to leach somewhat. The good news is that it always turns around, but I noticed deficiencies were always popping up afterwards, and have disappeared since discontinuing the use of flush products mid-grow.

Side-note: why 1/4 strength nutrients for flush mid-grow? "Like" molecules bond to "like" molecules, and a weak nutrient solution will flush better than straight water without shocking the plants or completely stripping them of nutrition.

thanks xlr8, i'm running 15 gal in the system. i do use ro . yes i used florakleen at the smallest recommended rate. wont do that in mid growth again. ive been tring to run between 80-120ppms of calmag because heavy 16 is made for ro water and has several different types of calcium and mag. at 120 they seemed to do well. i backed off a bit last res change before this flush and change about to 80ppm. i added 3ml last night to the res. i'm going to run 150ppms next change and add some more to this res in a couple of days.
thanks for info on florakleen this was the first time i used this product and the last mid grow. my recommend dose for calimagic is 5ml gal but that is 325 ppms. which is more than 33% of my total ppms, i'm running in the low 900's right now. i'm getting heavy 16's foliar which has four types of calcium and other micronutes. hopefully that will help.
i'm also going to stop the prime until after i switch to zone. the microbe tea brewing in the res is causing ph to swing up quickly, ive been on top of adjusting but it hasnt let my ph stay under 6.0 for very long. two more weeks with bennys no prime and then i'll go zone.
would you suggest using hygrozyme with zone?

thanks for everything:thanks:
 
Re: My First Grow Journal OG #18 - Scrog - Recirculating Aero/DWC 600w LED Medical Gr

Ill let x answer but I know hiker runs hygrozyme and zone together without issue. My understanding is zone does very well on its own tho.
 
Re: My First Grow Journal OG #18 - Scrog - Recirculating Aero/DWC 600w LED Medical Gr

i agree with X. looks like cal/mag. only flush mid grow if something forces u too. i never flush, only at end to leech out and remaining nutes.
 
Re: My First Grow Journal OG #18 - Scrog - Recirculating Aero/DWC 600w LED Medical Gr

I'm with Cultivator, it's a cal/mag issue. Epsom salts seem to work this out for me. I get it with my clones in the beginning, and it lets me know it's time for some nutes and epsom.
