Day 95 - 6/4/2020

No water for the main girls today but I mixed up some new feed for the Auto Tangerines and gave them some. I put a 1/4 tsp of Mega Crop into the 1 gallon watering jug and it wasn't enough. Came out to .4 EC and I was looking for .6 EC mix. Added another 1/8 tsp of Mega Crop and it came out to the .6 EC I was looking for.

Day 96 - 6/5/2020

Feed day for the big girls. 2 light tsp CalMag, 2 light tsp Mega Crop, and 2 tsp Bud Explosion. Came out 1.7 EC but the pH was a tad low at 5.7 so I bumped it up to 6.1. I checked it due to the extra Bud Explosion I used today, glad I did. Fed the Auto Tangerine duo as well with their mix.

Concerned about some reddening or purpling of some of the tops of a couple flowers. Made a post about it looking for experienced opinions. I'm thinking it's just due to the intense lighting. I've got fan leaf stems purpling on top and green on bottom. That's definitely from the intense light so I'm hoping the buds are doing the same.

Day 97 - 6/6/2020

Day off for the big girls other than their photo shoot. I'm super impressed with the health and growth of the Auto Tangerine duo, despite their lack of size at 29 days from seed. They've deal with sub-optimal conditions just tossed in a small space with no environment control and under a cheap Amazon blurple LED. I just had the light really close to them and noticed some light stress on the stems in the form of some purpling. I moved it up a few inches and they seem to be drinking really well. They got a good amount of their feed and will check back in on them later.

Haven't received any responses yet on my thread about the red/purple trichomes or at least tips of the bud. At this point I can only imagine it's just natural fading, or a response to the LED lighting, and not bud rot. Tomorrow will be 8 full weeks from the flip to 12/12. The White Thunder plants on the left definitely seem more mature than the rest, my hope and plan is to try to harvest them all at the same time as I use the same tent/space to dry for environment controlled drying. The WT may end up pretty amber if I wait on the rest, we'll see!

Looks amazing. I've read purpling can be due to cooler temps, genetics or magnesium deficiency. I've got purple stems all over my plant but I can't see any signs of a magnesium deficiency or any other deficiency. I just put it to genetics since they're healthy.

Thanks. I know the purpling on the stems is from the intense light. I am going to assume to top of the flowers are doing the same.

Day 98 - 6/7/2020

Going to start lowering the EC for the feed now that it's almost the end of flowering. My estimate is about a little over 2 weeks until harvest. Mixed up 2 tsp CalMag, 1.5 tsp Mega Crop, 1.5 tsp Bud Explosion. Came out to 5.9 pH and 1.6 EC. Finished the 1 gallon of nutrient mix for the Auto Tangerines that I had mixed up from them finally. Have a new jug sitting open for the chlorine to dissipate and I can mix up more, maybe go up to .7 EC for them they are looking very healthy.

Couple of the calyx are turning deep purple. This was on WT1. I checked the insides of a lot of the buds and didn't spot anything but super healthy flower. Going to be interesting how these turn out!

Day 99 - 6/8/2020

As usual every other day off for the big girls, but was able to mix up new feed for the Auto Tangerines. Mixed up light 1/2 tsp of Mega Crop into 1 gallon of water which brought it to 0.7 EC and fed the autos. Probably got a 1/4 gallon each. Also re-tied them down.

Day 100 - 6/10/2020

Not enough time yesterday to do all my gardening work and make the post, so here they are on day 100! It was a watering day so mixed up 1 tsp CalMag, 1.5 tsp Mega Crop, 1.5 tsp Bud Explosion. Came out to a lower EC than I wanted. Added a little more CalMag and got it to 1.6 EC. Buds are starting to flop from their own weight, look at CG2 in the middle back.

Day 101 - 6/10/2020

Today's day off from watering all the big girls gave me a chance to post yesterdays pictures and entry and do some small stuff today.

Had to mix up new nutrient water for the Auto Tangerines. They got 1/2 tsp Mega Crop into 1 gallon of water and came out to about .9 EC, probably a little high of a jump for them from .6 EC but we'll see how they do, they look great.

When I opened the tent this morning even more colas were flopping over from their weight. A few from NL1 flopped right out of the tent lol. CG2's colas were all starting to flop in opposite directions so some green garden tie wire wrapped around the 3 main colas helped get them back upright.
