And I kinda just went thru the same thing in a hydro set up.. I knew what the plant was needing was all ready in the rez but the question was why was it not getting it. I thought my PH was good because it generally never moves once set. it wasn't and it was out of range for the plants to pick up what they were needing and the PH moved because I had to much nutrient in the rez causing a down swing in ph that the plants couldn't fix them selfs . In this case magnesium and P because of 5.0 ph.

That's all right RF, your intitled to .. I read a very interesting post on the topic the other day and the chemical changes a plant makes to swing ph to it's desired intake needs.
The way I see is if I dont make mistakes I don't learn, and going from thinking it was sulphur to discovering it wss ph and changing my ph up and down
And creating bigger problems to then learning to just add lime to buffer has
Been one of the best learning experiences I've had so far. So now I'm back to where I was in year 1 growing and thats just keep it simple stupid lol.

Haha neither am I! I try to trim all the bottom crap before flower so I can avoid lots of the popcorn, and put the energy into the tops! Even though I still did have quite a bit of popcorn from all my plants, I didn't even trim it hahaha. That shit went straight into my bubble bags and was made into hash!

Haze vs kush leaf. My first haze plant so I'm pretty excited

Looking good bro, I'm not into popcorn this year made my trimming so goddamn unpleasant last harvest, literally added hours and hours to my work.
