Monday, August 17 Scrog Training Day 16, Day 41
1. Inspected plant, increase in growth.
2. Humidity a tad low today, misted leaves with water and B-52
(She was starting a major deficiency, but it's gone now)

Tuesday, August 18 Scrog Training Day 17, Day 42
1. Inspected plant, increase in growth.
2. Left the damaged leaves on so if there was any new damage it would most likely show up on the ones already damaged.
3. Reservoir change (The damage on the affected leaves seemed to spread a little more. Not sure if it was still recovering or still had a deficiency. Didn't have any problems til this last reservoir change. I think it looks like a cal/mag issue. If you have been following my grow you know I add extra cal/mag and my ph is on point. I think my nutrient balance is off. Too much of something is locking out another. My base nutrients include this and since I'm finally at full strength for base nutes I should be getting enough cal/mag. So although I might be having a Cal/Mag problem I'm dropping supplemental cal/mag. If new issues develop I will continue adding it like before but at the lower dosage that didn't seem to cause any problems with base nutrients still at full strength.

250 ppm (EC x 700) Sensi Cal/Mag Extra

Thursday, September 17th Scrog Training Day 48, Day 72
1. Spread out the canopy.
2. Dimmed lights and Foliar fed with B-52. (will stop using the dimmer once plants dry)

Friday, September 25 Scrog Training Day 56, Day 80
1. Kept seeing what looked like a deficiency and kept having to troubleshoot. Finally figured out that my intake fan is too powerful (even on low and even though RH was 40%-50%) so I just run the outtake. The LED intensity was too high and the light was too close (15 inches) in my little 2x2, causing the plants to drink faster and also take up nutrients faster. Even at low doses my plant was having mixed issues. So I'm using the dimmer knob. As soon as I made those two adjustments, the plant has not shown any new signs of stress and is recovering. I plan to transition into flower in ten days. I could work longer to get more canopy, but I would like to finish this harvest and start a 3 plant grow using the Blue Dream I got from ILGM.

Good job on being attentive and finding solutions, just came across your journal. Good luck on your journey!

Monday, September 28 Transition to flower Day 1, Day 83
1. Changed the res on Saturday and added veg nutrients cause I didn't plan on flowering, but I believe this should be suitable for the plant for the first three weeks or so of stretch. So when I do a res change for week 2 and 3 I will still use the same recipe. With a couple modifications here and there.
