Temps 82 res 70°
Ph between 5.3 and 5.8 PPMs 500

Looks like the AK girls have a mag def. I added calmag and D.M. Zone. ppms at 650.

Maybe its time to toss the last 1/4 of flora nova grow. Its over a year old and I hear something rattling in there when I shake it.





The PH keeps dropping so I added some DM Zone today. See if that stabilizes it.














The over nuted girls in the floro cab are taking there sweet time coming back.
I got two so far that I would say are going to make it to flower.

Im at 650 ppm. Thats what has been the max in previous grows. Now that I burned those girls Im a little nute shy.
Hey, anyone grow afghan kush before? What do they like in regards to nute strength. I am thinking next res I will bump up to 800ppm.

thats what those autos iv got growing now, the ones that out grew the space. i been keeping the ppm down on them, hiegtest was 750. but i dont see why to go any higher, the plant seem to be happy were she at now. I dont think the the higher the ppm that the plant can handle means the more it will produce. just give me less chance for error. and a greater chance for a brun.

Cruzer - do you top your plants before you put them under the screen? I was thinking about it at first, but then I thought it might make the training more difficult since there'd be multiple "colas" to worry about. It seems I should not top and just weave/tie-down the main tip? Thx

They look great! Hardly look like the same girls! Nice recovery.
Ya think?
I dont know, maybe im spoiled, growing in hydro I would think they should be farther along. I tell ya what, if I over nute young again, I will toss them and start over. I mean only two look like they will amount to much.

Yes,
I top a week or so before I add the screen. I am just about to top the AK.
Now I havent grown this strain before so I dont know what to expect but I want 12 main colas in that screen. Theres plenty of room.

Temps 81 res 76°
PPMs 490 PH 6.0


Im having problems with this nano chiller. Aqua Euro CL-85
This model heats and cools the water. designed to keep an even temp. From what I understand not all of this model number chiller does that. Most just cool. OK thats was the idea but this dam thing does not cool the water. I warmed it up and kept it around 68° for a couple days but the ambient temps were about the same.

Now its warming up, so is the res. I tried a bigger water pump and double checked all the connections. I have tried resetting it several times too. Looks like I bought a $200 heater. This is not acceptable, I have emailed Reefplayground.net Lets see what he says. I bought it from him through ebay.

Heres a couple shots of the AK
They are just about healthy enough to top. Well the three on the left are but there sisters are not quite there yet.
Makes me think I got some plugged sprinklers. I gotta check that out.

Temps 83 res 68°
PPms 450 PH 6.2

Topped off with fresh, adjusted ph to 6.0
I contacted aqua euro about the chiller because reefplayground did not reply to my email. They told me to go down in pump size not up. So I adjusted the little rio 300 down and it seems to be working fine now.

I looked into topping the Afghan kush and found it does not respond well to topping. So I am not going to do it.
So I pulled them all out, put in the screen and when I put them back I re-arranged them and put the small ones in the center.
Looks like its time to flip these girls.













The floro cab is on the same res now so they are going to 12/12 too.
Looks like I bonzaied a couple of them.




Heres the Blueberry mum.








She is finally looking healthy.
