UPDATE!
This is the first of the bud updates. Last night I changed the rez and used only FN bloom. At the next rez change I will use the bloom fortifier too. The ppm's are at 1125. Just looking at the room in person - I am going to have a lot more bud than I anticipated. And that makes me smile real fuckin big! There is also not a lot of smell yet. I anticipate that the smell will become a problem. More shit to buy I guess. I think that when I am done with all this I am going to add up all my expenses and put it down in my journal. I'm sure i've spent well over a grand in the last three months on this project. A lot of that expense is from items that will be used and used and used though.
Notice how I fucking scorched this first picture. I did it a few days ago. I can't get over how tall these plants have gotten.
Can anyone comment on why these plants seem to be yellow where all the new development is - the bud sites? Since early on in this grow I have noticed that there was yellowing but it does turn green. Is this normal?

My one problem with the floranova line is Mg deficiencies. Try adding a bit of cal-mag and I bet it clears right up.
Your plants are looking amazing! Those girls are going to get fat.

yeah, looks like you got a nice cola going on that other one.
I just realized that I had a light on in the grow room from 8 am to 11:30. So it got about 3.5 more hours of light (albeit weak cfl light from 4 feet away) than they normally do. I hope that doesn't fuck em up too much.

In my experience the bud sites on plants in early flowering always turn a lighter green, it's normal. Nice job!

Well I added 8 tbsp's of cal mag plus (Bontanicare) yesterday. That is half the recommended dose so I will see how it does. Mid next week I will add the bloom fortifier.

hubba hubba dude, looking good.
a cheap source of magnesium is epsom salts; or you can get the pills w/ zinc (vitamin available @ store) and smash'em up for a cheaper alternative to calmag.

yeah, im not sophisticated enough to try something like that just yet, and i already bought the cal mag. I took a picture to show you the space i have left in my closet. These plants grow like vines. This is a new perspective as far as the pictures go that I have shown thus far. Up to a few days ago i was still keeping my clothes in the closet. They are gone now in anticipation of the smell gradually rising.
this grow has turned out way better than i could have ever hoped for. gotta sprint through the finish. im bending plants everyday now. it sucks. I think i am going to just take some time and level them all off.

Last night I added some bloom fortifier that i posted earlier. Over the past 24 hours I have noticed substantial swelling of the buds. One of the buds has started to turn orange. I dont think thats a good thing this earrly on. But overall the plants are WAY too fucking big and all but one are bent over and snaking their way around the perimeter of the lighted area. Should provide for a nice canopy. Lots of buds growing. I'm stoked. I did a flush last night and replaced the nutes. ppms are 1125 and ph is 5.8. I have added cal mag and the bloom fortifier. I will post the new pictures in an hour or so.

Thanks! In my first post on this thread I have been keeping a weekly update with a picture of the whole grow and the days accumulated. Additionally, I got a new Digital SLR camera yesterday so all new pictures should be of higher quality.

UPDATE!!!
Thanks! I got an update here. I changed the res last night and added perhaps too much of the bloom fortifier. the leaves are all curled in tonight. they are curled in length and width. you'll see what i mean in the pics. The ppm's are 1150. I have 8 tbsps of cal-mag in it, 6 tsps of bloom fort, and the rest was FN bloom. plus the ph buffer. But this update includes the newly added TRICHOMES!
It's just a mass of green at this point. I have only removed leaves that were dead.

Looking Sweet.
Hope that bloom fortifier does not cause any serious problems.
What are you doing about it?

Well I just took out 10 gallons of nute water from the rez. I replaced it with pure water. I didn't add anything else to the res except forr ph down. ppms arre 900 and will remain there for the next two feedings.
