Starkiller bagseed journal

I just harvested one of my manifolds I think I should’ve removed more growth tips. I left quite a bit thinking more branches means more bud. But on most of those branches it was tiny buds with a small cola on top I think my main buds would’ve been bulkier and less time trimming smaller buds. Next grow I’ll remove the first 2 off the second node for sure. It does look like under the hps this is less of an issue than under the smaller led. We’ll see when I harvest the ones under the hps.
 
I wish I would’ve done one leaving them and one taking so I could see a good side by side. I think the lighting plays a big role, my 1 450w equiv led obviously is going to produce smaller buds than my 600w hps. With your lighting you might have better results on those side branches.
 
Start of week 6 tonight. 55 days since being being placed in the towel. Backed off the nutes a little in hopes to let the PExWW catch up. 1900 EC in a 5 gallon bucket. More pre-flowers have formed and fairly certain it's a female, still don't see pistils though. I think I'm going to use my two 100 wattish cob rebuilds (226 watts total). That should cover three plants in a straight line.

Re pistils, how long have they been on 12/12?
Re EC, you backed off to 1900! What had it been? I’m putting in EC about 1200
Plants look great!
 
Still on 18/6.
It was at 2050 but you have to subtract the tap EC which is 450. It's rocking for sure, especially since the new probe and new meter. Everything really, all the plants are looking much better.
 
OK, that sounds within reason. And it certainly does look rockin!
If tap EC is that high, I would be careful with just adding it on. I have seen several refs that suggest the upper range for that adjustment is 300. So even if you are starting with 450, you should only subtract 300. The thing is you are balancing needs for nutrition through diffusion and ability to drink through osmosis. If the EC is too high, (and I think 2000 is always pushing it), then plants can't drink effectively, irregardless of what exactly is contributing to that 2000 (tap crap or nutes).
