Using uc nutrients and not too sure on them yet, sure they are very ph stable but not the growth I was getting with kind. Going to do this run and see what happens. Plants have a little something wrong, think it's either foliar spray with vitamino I did a few days ago burned me or mg def perhaps.. Only on tips of a few older leaves on two ladies

Nice looking grow. Please tell me you're south of the border? How strong are you running your nutes? Ph? Temp?

Installing a new dehumidifier tomorrow - 83-90 rh and ac can't keep up. Going to have to install some pipe at night for drains lol.

Sprayed eagle 20 today at 2ml per gallon, ladies as usual had no problems. After a nightmare pm grow a few years ago I swear by this stuff. I spray once at switch over with respirator and full suit of course, shit kinda scars me in concentrate and you have to buy enough to do like 2000 acres lol.

Girls should end up at 7 feet and fill the whole space, going to do some training and trimming first thing in the morning as well. Will post some pics.

Roots are looking real nice this grow, UC roots seems useful but somewhat spends if you don't have a water chiller. On another note, the last buckets in the UC system have these baskets that protect roots from being pulled in mass into the manifold and both end plants have roots attached all around them so my plans to move the smaller of the four to a more advantageous location seems on hold for now.

5 pounds is the plan, last grow was pound and a half dry per plant and that was in a far less efficient space

Eagle 20 is on the list of banned pesticides for commercial growers. There are other, less poisonous methods of controlling the PM. I'm a big fan of green cure, for one.

I've used everything lol even pseudoscience pm wash. From what I've heard most growers in co are just going eagle 20. I've run four cycles and so far no negatives such as taste or any obvious residue

They told you wrong. Every commercial operator in Colorado has a list of banned pesticides and knows the state can come get samples anytime. If any on the banned list site up in testing, THE ENTIRE CROP goes in the trash.

Eagle 20
Avid
Mallet
FORBID SC
I'm sure there's plenty more on that list I'm not aware of.

Rule of thumb is that if it doesn't have an OMRI label on the bottle, you probably shouldn't be using it.
