No pics tonight, but a few updates.
I have topped all my larger clones, and am using the tops as new clones.
JTR B & C, 3rd D, C9, SHD, CCX & CCB. 7 new cuttings taken. Should be rooted in two weeks if all goes well. I reckon about that time the original chunky cindies will close to finishing. No more than 4 weeks from the grows Ive seen. Then Ill have the room to move the first set of clones into flower, and keep these ones as potential moms. Although some are already nixed off the list at this point. C9, JTR C, 3rd D all heal slowly after being cropped. Skunk haze can take rougher croppings and still not miss a beat. I cropped a lower branch on the other JTR to see how she heals. I have no clue about the Chunky Cindies or Satori. Ill probably crop a lower branch on them tomorrow and see how they respond. Im not excited about keeping a Satori mom either. The quadfoliate cola is super leafy. The trifoliate cola isn't so leafy. I wonder how the clone will turn out? I can't recall which cola the clone came from. Makes me wonder how the clone will be. Surprises, surprises.
I think I discovered a big problem tonight. As I was examining the plants, I could see differences in leaf health on different sides of plants. Leaves that were on the dark side were healthiest. Lush and beautiful green. But on the side closest to the lights, the leaves were chlorotic. Some just a pale green. Others with looking like magnesium deficiency.
I think I have been bleaching my plants all this time! The magnesium deficiency either really hid the problem from me, or there was no mag deficiency, and it was bleaching all this time. Either way, I had to get those lights higher.
It wasn't easy, but I managed to use zip ties to fasten them to the top support poles. That gave me another 6 inches of height. Plants are now 21 inches below the light bulb, as opposed to 15 inches.
The canopy of the Chunky Cindies looks awful. Severe mag looking deficiency symptoms all around except for one. They are right under the lights too. Even the Satori has began to show some problems. Before she was basically covered up by a Skunk Haze and looked great. I had recently moved her more into the light, and thats when her problems began.
The symptoms go in a big circle around the tent. Plants on the far edges of the left and right were great looking(ED's and bagseed) The darkside of the skunk hazes on the right look great. Its everything in between them has problems.
Hopefully things begin to look better soon, but the damage has been done. Just another lesson learned.
