Very happy to have you joining me. I have had quiet a few successful runs all in dwc though. I want to slowly transition to TLO. I'm loving the light so far. Its extremely efficient and very powerful. All of my other experiences with lights have been either HPS or cheap blurples. So I'm loving the upgrade for sure.
Nice! I'm a hydro guy (usually) RDWC. This is my first grow in water after a few seasons in the dirt.

I've had quite a few LEDs in the past. I'm growing with HPS and CMH right now, and I dont like it... I've finally decided. My Black Dogs would kick the crap out of what I have now. I believe Q Boards are in my future. But, I like mixing different styles of lights. My best seasons were with LED and CMH. You can see these lights in action on my King Tut, and Lemon Skunk in RDWC seasons. Anyway, I really dig your light!
 
Day 32! I tried to tie the girls down a bit to even the canopy. Also cleared out a few more fan leaves that were blocking prime bud sites. I've realized people make lst look easier than it is, especially on the tiny bushy girls. I just need to keep practicing. Nothing else to report today, just waiting to water.

Have you ever done a scrog? It's pretty easy if you have a way to build a frame. It may be the easiest way to get light throughout the plant. Something to think about

Yeah I've done a scrog before. I think I'm just gonna let these girls finish out how they are. Probably a little bit of frustration to come. And lots of ties. Thanks for the helpful tip. :thumb:
 
Day 34! Today I watered both ladies. They took a gallon again collectively. Ph 6.3 7ML calmag. I'm thinking they are about to start the first stretch in flower. I'm seeing alot of pre flowers on the bushy girl. Next feeding I will continue on to week 5 of the fox farms recommended feeding schedule. I did quiet a bit of defoliation on both girls to open them for air flow and light penetration. I also uped my lux to about 35000 at 30 inches.

Day 36! Today I fed the girls 7ml calmag, 10ml grow big, 15ml big bloom, 10ml tiger bloom and 0.25 tsp open sesame. The pots where extremely light. Also very hydrophobic. The girls are still only wanting to take about .5 gal each. I think the soil has become hydrophobic due to under watering. I will start being more diligent in checking the pots water retention. Should I add yucca or aloe vera for my next watering?
Peace&Love

Day 40! It's been a while since I did a update. Today small girl got a watering 3L ph to 6.3 7ML calmag. Bushy girl got a feeding 3L ph to 6.3 7ml calmag, 10ml grow big, 15ml big bloom, 10ml tiger bloom and 0.25 tsp open sesame. I have been staying on top of my feeding and watering. The pots don't seem as hydrophobic as they are starting to finally take more water with around 1-2% runoff. Thanks again to everyone who has stopped in and given great tips and advice.
Peace&Love

Day 52! I'm way overdue for an update. I've been extremely busy with life lately, so here we are. I've been doing feed water water the last week. I did this because they are taking a gallon every 24hrs and I didn't know if thee feedings a week would be too much. Any insight on that would be great. Big girl is in full on flower and stretching nicely. Little girl is supposed to only be 3 days behind, but is looking more like 2 weeks behind as she is just pre flowering. I've finally cleared up ths mag issue for now with a crazy 10ml calmag+ per gal. Thanks for that help @Emilya. Any tips or concerns at this point please step in and teach me something.
Peace&Love

Day 73!! It's been a few weeks since my last update. The big girl was flushed with 15 gal plain water at 6.3 ph on Saturday the 21st. Today she received 10ML CalMag+ 15ML Big Bloom 10ML Tiger Bloom 0.25 tsp Cha-Ching. We are going to finish out the rest of the grow with same nutrients as stated above unless something else is needed. My little girl is still way behind she has just started flowering. She will be recieving a feeding tomorrow of 10ML Calmag+ 15ML Big Bloom 10ML Grow Big 10ML Tiger Bloom 0.25 tsp Beastie Bloomz. I'm surprised how long these autos are taking I thought we would be nearly finished, but it looks like the girls have other ideas. We will push through though. Please comment and give advise. Any good drying, trimming, curing tutorials around the community please link me to them.
