So then if I go 900 watts draw for the last month of the grow I'd imagine good results with 12x boards.

Ok so I have a light frame running 12x qb132 boards. The frame is perfect for a 4x4 tent where all plants would basically be under direct light. In order to save on money I adjust the drivers to 200w per row which is 3 rows of 4x panels. So that's 4 qb132s pumping out 200w. My question is...

Only time I would check soil runoff for ppm is if I wanted to be sure it's not super high for specific stages of growth. For example if it was 1 month old in veg and runoff was reading 1500 or more, I'd stop feeding and just use plain water for a couple watering before feeding again. If I saw...

i prefer to do mine after the stretch so i can accurately trim. If i were to trim during veg, you dont know whats actually going to reach up towards the top so something you cut off may have actually reached the top of canopy. my exception to this is if i know the strain im growing very well so...

Yes. Its when i go through my plants and cut off lowest limbs that will never get decent light or grow to be as plump/dense as the mid/upper parts.

At a quick glance i would think thats calcium deficiency. Your also using RO water and LED lighting which makes your plants even more hungry for calmag. Have you been adding 1 tsp of CaliMagic or a calmag supplement with your feedings? Calcium is a immobile nutrient meaning it wont take it from...

Looks good! On day 21 I'd open them up a bit with a light defoliation. Optional

Same here. I do exactly what the schedule says for both hydroponics (RDWC) and soil. If I see tip burn I back off. Of I see deficiencies I feed twice in a row.

Personally I'd avoid it until day 21 when the stretch is done or mostly done. Any stress may stunt your plants stretch. If that's what your goal is however, then by all means.
