UPDATE!!!! Flower week 7
UPDATE!!!! Flower week 7
okay guys bare with me a lot of news!
So, due to my lifestyle, I had to leave my grow for 2 weeks.
I set my ppm to 1500, filled my res to the max capacity, left my clones (watered) and peaced hoping for the best.
I came back before my lights turn on so i checked my clones first.
My purple kush cut and bubba kush cut were both dried out.. I didnt smother the pot in water, and i realize my mistake now. I had about 10 GDP clones in a bubble cloner, all had rooted some massive, but i saw webs on my clones! SPIDER MITES. i sprayed with some neem i had left, but i was so mad about my clones dying, i picked the best gdp clone from the bubbler, and planted it in some new soil in purple kush's old pot
hopefully that will take off, and i ditched about 8 rooted gdp clones.. 
It not a big loss, Ill go back and get more cuts...
Now, I checked on my big girls expecting the worst. luckily they were BEAUTIFUL (plus the whole place reeked
[stupid odorsok is garbage])
I did see some mites on my plants however, and seeing that they are so late in flower it is frightening. My next post will be some pics.
I plan to place a NPStrip hangin under the canopy, and then i have to leave AGAIN for 10 days. talk about taking chances. All i did was refill the water, add nutes and changed to a ripening formula (AN overdrive). When i come back, i expect to flush fro 3-4 days (first flush with clearex, rest with h2o)
It will be fun to see what happens!

2 weeksish to go? Spider mites....
Sorry bout ya clones but going away for a fortnight you did ok.
How much damage can mites do in a fortnight? Question worth having an answer to. If you post in the infirmary someone 'mite' know.
I've been fighting pH. I'd rather fight mites. Oh guess what! This'll piss you off/make you jealous/be pleased for me. My huge tomato in the greenhouse got culled so I can train another onto the roof properly. In the bed was practically a worm farm and lots of other critters. Anyhoo, bit of a story (you know me)...
I transplanted the bulk of the tomato plant into part of a nasturtium bed to let the existing crop finish. This bed is a new invention of mine that, when I want it to, floods above the crop to knock insects back (and flushes em out for fish food omg this thing rocks).
So.... In a flood cycle I notice all these little critters crawling out of the lavarock and up onto the tomato stem... predator mites!
Now installed some in my growroom beds, where a population of white? mites? (eat compost type mite critters) should keep them fed.
See why I'd rather have mite problems...
I saw two mites yesterday, must've been mating, ass to ass joined and running around like that one forward one backward.
So that's where Dr Doolittle got the push-me pull-you from!

Ok mate, I know you're back, and we're all rooting for ya, so how'd it go?
My problems are finally over (well growroom probs) and plants are back into growing instead of performing genetic mutations.
Tra la la, I'm so amused today after firing my broker. RELIEF!
Nice t have ya back, update for the crew...?

Kwame = 15.3g
Ach. = 18.9g + some that i've smoked
Hope = 28.7
MJ = 26.3 + 3.0 in water cure

Good on ya! That's got to feel good huh.
Increasing the yield could be as easy as vegging for longer and using the better yielding strains you have - though one grow doesn't really say which is better as there's many differing needs with differing strains.
You didn't kill them, I killed a few plants lately....
Simply let them get bigger before you flower them and you'll do better
