switch to 12/12

@tjo
yes the bud of this plant is amazing i think that this single plant will outyield my 400w closet.
I count maybe over 20 huge buds .... can i have a sun in my closet.you are right for the Big Bud it is not the better smoke hope Shiva Skung is better.

Hello everyone ,
I have hard times drie out my big bud harvest cause i dry outside where the humidity these days reach 90% with heavy rain some times.Any ideas will be helpfull.

My 4 Shiva Skunk rdwc girls exploding drinking nutes like crazy and continue raising my ph
i ph down every day and keep it between 5,3 and 5,8 using maybe 2 ml fh ph down every day ,girls look fine.
I make small windows in the screen and i have hard times training.
I have a picture after training look like a mess but in 24 hours the bounch up and maybe 2 inches over the screen (5-7 cm).
I am thinking that i must switch to 12/12 really soon so i can handle the stretch need your opinion here.
Here is a pic of my messed up screen

Your EC level is WAY to high. That was not any MG deficiancy or any other, that is classic nute nurn and nute lockout (and PH burn also..lots of PH burn on those pics which you are interpretimg as a defincancy). When you jack the ec levels like you did without waiting for the plants to respond, you get lockout which looks like a deficiancy, which makes the newbie grower add more and more thinking there is a deficiancy....classic

Your EC levels should go up SLOWLY during the growth period. You went from like 600 to over 1100....not good.....should takes weeks to get to that level going LITTLE by LITTLE...like maybe 150 jump in PPM at a time over WEEKS....not days.

You wanna keep your PH way lower, like around 5.5 no highere than 5.8 for hydro. Most of those nasty leaf pics are all PH burn/spotting.

You should have maxed out at around 1100 to 1500. What you did was not the way to find your plants limits.....

Hello icmages ,
Today i top off my system with 10 litres(2,5 gallons) of pure R/O water
and my ppm's was 850 from 1100 in 3 days time.I think that my girls drinking nutes like
crazy.i add some GMB with 4-2-1 ratio and push my ppms to 1180(.7) almost 1,7 EC
and i will se how the girls will react.The defiances or burns or anything it was disapear
and the girls looking 100% happy , exept one main cola that i break badly and i doubt if she is going to survive.
I break the cola trying to remove my scrog net and replace it with a new one with bigger
holes cause the first one net has too small holes and it was a pain in the ass for me and for my girls.
I finaly replace my scrog net and i am happy with the new one .
I think that i must switch the schedule to 12/12 cause my scrog net is almost at 75%
please give me your opinions on this.
Some pic udates follow.

Girls with the old scgrog net




Girls with the new Scrog net after mess up with them and train them



Do you think that i must switch to 12/12 soon so i can handle the strech ?

I think you have enough canopy to get the full potential from 400w, how much of the container has the roots filled?

Im keeping an eye on this one as im looking to do small scale rdwc soon aswell.

Given your light footprint, you've just about filled in your screen. So yes, going 12/12 soon would be justified, imo. Within the week I think.

I would greatly thin the leaves out below the screen in the next week or so. It's diverting plant energy and not going to measurably increase your harvest if you leave them on.

@Trillion
My roots start touching the water @ 12-13/10 they r not even 20 days old .
The growth rates of this system is insane.
I have plenty of room inside my grow res i will give you a picture from the root ball
tommorow.
@fatigues
Yes i have in mind to make a triming under the scrog net the day i will switch to 12/12
and a second one on the second week of flower so finaly trim everything bellow the scrog net
