Ahhh. Big mistake bumping the light up. That's very good to know. Thanks.

I used to have an iPhone last year before I lost it and I've been using a Pixel 8. I actually downloaded the app for android and used that to get a general idea of what they were getting and if I remember right, at 85% the readings were in the mid 500's. I've never heard of the photobio, I'll...

It's very well possible they couldn't handle the 75%. I may have underestimated their strength.

Will def be doing that. Thanks.

Another comment below mentioned the light intensity as being a possible factor. I may have underestimated just how powerful the light is in relation to their tolerances. VPD has been solid for the most part. I attached a pic with the last couple months and set the line at about the average...

Yeah, those look great.

That's the plan. I just wanna grow some beautiful flowers and it seems soil makes it harder than it needs to be.

That's great information. Thanks for sharing that. Next time it's hydro and if I ever decided to go back to soil, it'll be when I have the space to accommodate a container big enough to go the living soil route.

Consistent application was started after the problem started. The lime I use is pelletized and dissolves easily in water, so I would say it works relatively quickly. As for the pH of the lime, I'm not sure, which is why I included the run off pH.

I think that's the way to go going forward. I don't like the plants stressing out the way they are; I want 'em to be healthy and vibrant..

Thanks for the advice. Yeah, they were showing signs of being hungry way earlier than expected, hence why I was feeding them.

For sure. When I started, I wanted to go organic, but experience is showing me that for these smaller container sizes, it's a lot trickier to manage than I expected and maybe more so than just going the hydro route.

Experimentation. I figured since coco is inert, like peat moss, if I used something buffered from a decent brand, it wouldn't cause that big of a headache as long as I dialed in the feeding and kept microbial life active with the compost, ewc, and LABS.

Been adding 1 tbsp/gal of lime with every feeding to compensate.

Hey y'all, so my girls are presenting with heavy deficiencies despite the adjustments I've made to their diet. Seems like no matter what I try, they don't want to respond. Since this run is almost over, I'm hoping for feedback I can use on my next grow. Thanks ahead of time I have four girls...

Pictures of trichomes 2 weeks before harvest

Figured an update would be appropriate. After all was said and done we had the following dry yields: Double Grape: 81 grams 3 Bears OG Pheno 1 : 60 grams 3 Bears OG Pheno 2 : 62 Grams 3 Bears OG Pheno 3 : 81 grams The pics are after a 30 day cure. Smoke Report: - Double Grape represents...

My girls started showing sex around day 22 and then a week later were in flower so they've been at it for about a month. In that time, though, they've been pretty stagnant growth wise - thought maybe they were using energy to get dense until the leaves started turning at a healthy clip. I...

Gotcha. I'll get the water up and see how it treats me. They girls were super healthy through veg and early flower at 1/2 gal of water - looked just like this - which is why I didn't think anything of it until recently as things started turning. It would make sense it's not enough and there...

I'm running 5 gallons. I've only been doing .5 gallon because the pots end up being pretty heavy after the watering. After three days they're light again. What do you think is the move, then? Increase amount and/or frequency of watering? 1 gal each every 2days? 2 gal each every 3 days?
