Day 39
Turns out I'm retarded!
When I was changing out the res on day 37 I unplugged the fill pump to the buckets to make sure it wouldn't pump water on my floor while I had the res in the bathroom to fill it up.
When I was done with the res change / adjusting the lights I just adjusted the ph and left. However, I realize today that I forgot to plug the fill pump back in *smacks head*.
Stupid mistake. When I went to check on the plants today there were spots everywhere and most of the leaves were drooping. The plants look horrendous and on the verge of death.
To remedy the problem I dropped the ppms to 1100 and lowered the light wattage to let them recoup (that will also lower the temp a little bit so they can fill up on water). I also flooded the pots for 45 mins to let them soak up as much as they could.
I've now accepted the fact that I stunted these plants maturation by at least a few days if not a week.
These pictures were taken after they were done soaking up the water. Some of the leaves are still pretty crispy/ brown spots / droopy but for the most part they look WAY better.

There are some really good seedbanks online (based in Europe), Attitude Seedbank is one of them. Order whatever beans you want and then do the t-shirt shipping option and your good to go. You can even pay with your credit card. If you have a large order you might want to split it up into two orders on the offchance it gets held up or confiscated at US customs (I've only heard of a few out of hundreds of orders that have ever been held up, and it was usually during the holidays)

Yeah, I agree. For going through a drought so long that the leaves started to burn (NO water left), they do look good. I recon if I would've waited one more day to investigate the problem they all would have been dead. No good, no good at all. I'll be headed back for another update today so we can see how well they've recovered and to see if any other issues have presented themselves. I'll probably update again in a few hours.

Day 40 , half way mark
Plants are looking much better today. PPMs have risen a little bit, as expected. about 1130 now. PH around 5.75. Temps under the lights 81.
Mostly all of the drooping is gone but the deficencies remain, those will never go away
There is still plenty of greenary left though and they're still on track to graduate.

Looked through the plants today to check for any signs of further deficencies, couldn't find any.
Looks like the damage is done and the plants are on their way to a full recovery. In fact, a few of the fan leaves are perkier than I've ever seen them.
The bud size on this grow at day 42 are equal in size to the plants on day 46-47 on the last grow, so they are about 5 days to a week ahead. Hopefully healthier plants and this Humbolts Own "gravity" will do work on my nugs and get them nice and juicy and dense.
Only 39 more days until harvest!

Looks good! They really bounced back impressively. Did you use anything to help de-stress them like B-vitamins or something?

Doesn't look like you hurt them much bro. I just flipped the switch and got different bulbs in my room on monday morning. My sweet dreams stretched quite a bit already in two days. But I am off topic. Looking really good man. Do they stink much?

Thanks man
Yeah I didn't hurt them too much but I was swinging for a perfect grow. Oh well. I'll get um next time. As for now. Yes they wreak to high heavens. My whole house smells even with the 6'' vortex and carbon scrubber in the tent.

Day 53
Plants are lookin super sexy. As usual.
ph 5.8
ppm 1600
Added some fresh H20 to the Res along with some more bleach because it smelled like a dog turd in there. The root rot is trying to come back but the bleach is fighting hard to stop it.
All the while the nugs are getting huge
You are totally right, the nugs are getting huge and frosty.
