lol fair dos mate. Why you putting all that stuff in there, just grow and micro will do the job perfect with regularly flushing to prevent any lockout, end of the day best thing for plants is water at the correct PH.. Less is more. Cheeses grew 3 inches just on water but drunk the WHOLE 5 galleon res so now punching it up to 1100. Just saves stiching yourself up down the road being a bit conservative ;) lol Anyway just my 2 pence and what works for me successfully after few years trial and error also being an eager beaver thinking more nutes more plant/bud when it really is not the case - at least with water farm/wilma/DWC growing... Tbh I usually have a 1200/1300ppm LIMIT at the peak of flower lol

But yer, listen to what I say and forget it basically lol everyone has there own ways what works for them if you can pick anything up from my advice than bloody marvellous lol

I have a bunch of nutrients and additives from a couple of growers I bought out I'm trying them out & not replacing them as they're getting used up probably be my undoing but I'm getting down to the base nutrients grow,micro& flower I've enough of that to last a year also have an extra 1000w. hps,xxl hood & a 4x4 e&f tub setup from when I used to run 2 rooms hopefully I can get all the x-tra stuff traded off ppm today is 1030 I've got about 10 more days of vegging this strain is supposed to stretch up to 4 weeks after turning the light backimage.jpeg

I'm picking up the loaner light tomorrow the 1200 vipar spectra (524w.) to finish this grow with not the ideal led but hopefully it will outperform the 400w. hps I'm waiting for a price from ecosunlite on 420w. 3 cob all Cree I'm also looking at the pricier clw 440 solar storms & the amare 450 se as well as some of the kits last is the 315 lec which is most bang for dollar spent but it's not a led

my whole room is 4x4 my scrog is 29x29 but I decided not to use the vipar I ordered a Johnson cx-6 that's 340w. 6 Cree 3070 cob so that is gonna replace my 400 hps it should get here by this weekend I decided instead of the 315 lec I would spend a little more & get what I really wanted I want to one day research enough to build one the timber kits are nice but from what I'm seeing you can make your own wiring harnesses & piece everything together for far less

I had a few things that popped up & ate up my new light funds but this grow is showing such promise that I went ahead & went out on a limb & put this on future pay option so after harvest I'll pay it off meanwhile I'm getting stellar growth & in preference to stubbing my toe I decided to do an overnight flush & dropped my ppm to 830 better safe than sorry at this point the investment in the new light is a win win situation as I'm getting the performance of a 600w. hps for less power consumption than the 400w hps I'm running now here is this mornings pic once she fully recoverers from all the topping growth should accelerate quite a bit image.jpeg

She's looking nice and healthy mate!
And it looks nice and cosy in there around that fire, perfect after a days graft in the cold! Its getting pretty cold here now and the days are getting shorter!

yeah ol man winter is right around the corner gotta stock up on firewood soon in the next week or so I've got to insulate my room a little better I think this grow is gonna be considerably better than the last don't know if I'll get that pound but I think a person should set your sights high & try your best to pull it off

this is not my first time growing headband when I first started growing indoors a friend had a cut of 707 headband & we let it get away just thought you could go to a club & buy it again but when I bought another baby it wasn't the same it was then I realized I fucked up & didn't realize what I had I took a chance on the dark heart nursery version & the more this develops the more I'm convinced this is the real deal headband I'm gonna clone this as I'm not gonna take a chance of loosing it quality is very good on this strain when it's young it's kinda weak but as she develops she throws semi mutated 3 fingered leaves very similar to my favorite pheno of r- p skywalker but the headband differs in that you've got some sour diesel in there too so later in growth those traits start showing as well the buds get that lemon pinesol / fuel -skunk funk smell I woke up to about 3" of new growth I've heard loompa farms has legit headband seeds but I was never able to get my hands on themimage.jpegimage.jpeg image.jpeg

she is consuming about 30 ppm a day which is very light compared to my last grow but she is growing at pretty high rate so I'm getting twice the growth on half the nutes when I started he headband was kinda drooped over but as predicted she now reaches for the light & today has grown over 3 in. 3 weeks ago she was 6in. tall now she is 16 in tall & leaves are doubling in size I hope that led gets here soonimage.jpegimage.jpeg

the main stalk split down the middle I made a splint using bbq skewers & twine if this don't work this could be a major set-back I've broken limbs before but never this severe if the limbs don't start drooping today I think I'll be ok I've been holding off on the scrog until the new light arrives but she is gonna need support gonna be a long dayimage.jpegimage.jpeg
