Nl is a blast from the past . I hope you find a keeper.
And if you grow the northern lights I will follow.
It's funny but in veg my Northern Lights are putting off burnt rubber smell
I'd kill for a nice big bag like a nice oz for smoking
Serious brother I've always wanted to see a Nirvana nl grow
Just a quick list of exactly what I have and am using....
1. Foliage Pro. (FoPro, I like it).... I will be using primarily this.
But I do add a little bit of.. (to stay close to what my DynaGrow feed chart shows.)
2. Bloom ( as I say, not sure how I'll proceed with this, I'll let my plant guide me)
3. MagPro (love this stuff, my plants odor goes way up immediately after using it) Used VERY lightly.
4. Protekt. (more of a PH down instead of using PH down)..
5. Recharge. (I have my doubts, but it was only $3) I boil and bake my soil to 180 degrees, I guess it cant hurt to get life back into the soil.
6. Great White- Used to transplant, sprinkled on the roots.)
7. Calmag. (used very lightly as needed)
8. Fresh Rabbit poop, I have a pet rabbit. Mixed well into the soil. (Fox Farm Coco Loco)
9. RO water.
10. EC meter to check feed and runoff. PH drops to check PH. I'm feeding around 6.0 as my runoff is around 7.5
One interesting thing about topping to the second node vs 3rd node, the first set of leaves coming off the new topped branches is 3 leafed. So, I chopped those off too (yes more defoliation). The second node coming off the new branches is 5 leafed. I'll use these nodes/branches to flower.
It seems to me that mother nature doesnt change the feed at flower and they do quite well naturally..
There's your problem - too much TLC. IOW, you're overthinking this and pushing them with stuff they probably don't need. For example, I revegged a Cannacopia Lapis Mtn. indica using Osmocote Indoor-Outdoor 5-6 month, 15-9-12, the whole time, which was about a span of 6 months. I collect rain water so that's what I use most times. I think of cannabis as just another foliar plant. ALL foliar plants flower. N is there primary macro in nature, in general.
You'll just have to back off, and use what the experts at DG have designed for some of the biggest commercial ops out there.
Here's a Sensi Hindu Kush male I killed last Jan. 19. Got nothing more than Osmocote. Foliage was green, healthy, spotless. LED ViparSpectra 5500.

Thanks for the kinds words, appreciate ya.
Good luck,
Uncle Ben
3 leafs per leafset is just what very young plants do before they show off the usual 5-9 leaves with some maturity.
Cut above the 2 true node and you should end up with 4 main colas, which you probably saw with that ditty I did years ago.
Uncle Bens topping method SUPRISED!!
