The girls where a bit paler in this last days, been working on 2 jobs dont leave a lot of time do to everything, not even sleep.
To add to everything, the pressure sprayer that i usually use to handwater broked, so the last watering 3/4 days ago was a bit messy in every aspect, plus the ec pen fell to the ground hard and "broked", it works and it dont but i was able to read the ec to today watering, plus the shity pump may not get to help to automate squat but to mix nutes and handwatering it still does the job
Using "Yara" recipe i raised Ca to equal K and tweak the Mg to a 3:1 Ca:Mg, lowered the ec of the solution to around 700 to get and overal ec of 1 with my .28/.3 tap water and got something like this
Gave everyone 3L of water and get 2l of runoff of everyone to lower the ec a bit faster, first drops of run off apeared at 1l for everyone.
Super Gold, the happier and bigger one. This one got 4.5l, 1ec going in, 2 geting out at first 1.5l at a ph of 5.6, last part of run off 1.5ec and 5.8ph
Amnesia, happyish, 1st 1.5l of run off 1.8 ec 6ph, last part 1.5ec 5.8ph
Skunk, the palest of them all and now on the droopy side, end of 1.5l run off 1.8ec 6ph, last 1.5ec 5.8ph
Speed, this one is a funny fellow, the only one that got a root stimulator and Atazyme, i dont expect nothing from this girl
Ph of the watering was 5.9, temps have been on 24/24.5c and rh ~70%
Everyone got a foliar of Algamic and went to sleep and its already another day for them, hope they look better in a few hours when i visit them.
Funny how in this last 3/4 days the were way lighter green that they are now, and i didnt do anything to improve them, not even water or foliars, dunno.
Peace

Thanks bro, i hope it too
Yeah a bit, it helps me think and to go back in the long run if i want, plus i think its good to be a bit technical.
What would ic be if a bunch of people werent?how much we wouldnt learn by mistakes of newbs like me? If was just pics of pretty buds and girls it would be a art gallery, kinda instagram, and this is not it, but i get you bro believe me.
Peace

End of day 14
Today everyone got one root stimulator and atazyme, 1.05ec(nutes+tap), 1.17ec with root stimulator
I see the ph in the rootzone climbing a bit, the ec of my tap also climbed 30/40ppms since i started this grow. If the ph is geting higher from the carbonate, should i ph the water a little lower?
Skunk, 1.08ec 6ph, the fussier one when gets watered, it drops alot, i wonder if it would like a more spaced down waterings
Amnesia, 1.15ec 5.9ph, still purple on leaf stems where the light hits

Speed 1.17ec 5.9ph, i cuted that stupid thin shit, she is a clusterfuck indeed
Super 1.08ec 6ph, the growth rate is similar to the skunk and amnesia is right behind, but the size between them is huge
I raised the light power for day 15 a notch and its at around 35/40%. Temps today were high in the 28/30 mark, so much so that the run off in everyone came at a temp of 25.8c, the fins of the light were at 31c. Its summer saying hi
