Brought the plants under the HID last night I really like this light, but my power bill might not. Anyway, I decided to top both plants. I got scissor happy. I trimmed a bad fan leaf from each plant and decided...what the hell, snip snip! I think it might work out better since I am gonna scrog or tie them down. I can't wait to see those first white hairs. I know people are gonna look at the KK and say, "what happened?" I had a super high pH and phosphorus became locked out. I have pics of what a phosphorus deficiency looks like from ph lockout. The Blueberry Gum is looking absolutely freakin' fabulous! I gave both plants a watering and nutrients. No more Dr. Earth and guano, as the nitrogen is too high and the mycorrhizae was killing my pH level. Any higher, and it would have became caustic! I switched to a 5-30-30. I need phosphorus and potassium. I put in a teaspoon of Azomite as well. I checked my soil pH before adding nutes and it was 7.0, so I mixed my water and nutes with pH down which measured 6.0. It should work out rather nicely and hopefully balance out around 6.5...crossing my fingers. Here are the pics...some feedback would be appreciated.
Getting that pH down will work wonders (and has! in your case) I had a friend with a sickly plant that exploded with dark green vigor and growth when he simply dropped the high pH into a good 6.8 or so range. That kk plant looks great now.
Does your BB gum smell yet? I heard it smells (good) almost from the 2nd week!
