Run #2 - Gorilla Guh-lue

Easy week, nothing but RO water and Crystal Clear, no need to pH even when flushing with CC. 5 ml/L, normal watering routine, 5 times watering events for a total of 3 litres per plant per day. Taken the full week to get exit EC down to 0.3 from the 2.1 it was at. Just starting to see some flush in the leaves, and everything starting to turn a lovely shade of purple. The flush combined w/ slowly bringing daylight down to 11 hours is driving them to finish. Disappointed with the bulking on two of these girls, although both have ridiculous frosting across the whole plants that I'm really excited about having a shitload of full melt out of my 25 micron bag!! Anything too small to bother with will just go in there, I'm really hopeful to be able to get my first dab rig and just live on full melt for as long as possible, just letting the flowers cure. My mini hygrometers should arrive this week - I love humidipacks but I really want to manage jar burping manually for at least a week or two as I've heard this helps preserve terps. They are really going amber in the trichs very quickly, I expect I'll have to pull them down in the next 2-3 days, but regardless they'll come down day 63 at the latest. The issues with lack of light from the SpiderFarmer light has meant there has been delays across some plants and a lack of bulking. Things got better once I added the 2x Mars Hydro lamps bringing total LED wattage up to a little over 800, but the lack of light before they went in led to massive stretch and definite loss of bulking. I'm really looking forward to picking up my Grow Lights Australia lamps in the next few days. The new setup will blow some minds, these are the best lights on the market by some distance and all made by hand with the best far red and blue diodes. They claim a one-week reduction on flower times due to this. In any case we'll find out, and as they're not well known outside the country, or even the city of production, I hope to show what the best quality lights with the right mix of wavelengths can do! Above all I want to stop that stupid level of stretch and let my mainlining do what it's supposed to do. So I need to decide whether I harvest in two passes and let the bottom stuff ripen, but honestly I just want to get this stuff down and get onto a better grow with the right light. Once I know I'm going, these will get watered all through the light cycle with a half ice half water mix, super cold. From there lights will go out for about 24-36. Just a little time to eat their starches and build up some nice terps, then picked as soon as lights go back on. Aim will be to dry them at 62% in the tent and try to get a 10-14 day dry from them. Stay tuned for harvest, any day now I reckon
