She looks pretty good man. I try to keep my runoff ppm just under 700 I feed with 680ppm nutrient solution. Plants will only take up nutrients that are with in the pH range of the soil so if the pH is high it will leave alot of salts in the soil. Runoff is very important it not only lowers the ppm of soil but it also helps maintain pH . To many salts build up the pH won't stay stable and burn the roots which affects the plants ability to grow and produce.

Different brands recommend different ppm's they add a lot of shit that's not really on the label Most Of It Is Trace Elements And PH Buffers . I use Jacks hydro and calcium nitrate made by Jr Peters, it comes in 25 lb bags I think they offer smaller sizes but it's more expensive that way. It's like 100 bucks shipped and will make several thousand gallons.
That schedule looks crazy high but then again I've never used that brand . The only other nutrient brand I've used is maxi bloom by gh and it sucks. wish I had better advice for you on your nutrients but I've only been growing indoors for about 2 years now, before that it had been 15 years since I grew outdoors.

Well as long as I don't kill the other plant then I can take clippings and do a dwc.
I wanna try doing a 4 banger dwc and a single dwc for comparison. I ordered some netting pots over a week ago so I should have those soon.

So I'm about to give it a watering of 6.5 ph water. So I guess I'll be checking the ph once I have enough run off come out and I it should come out all 6.5 or somewhere close

Ok for the 5 gallon pot so far after adding 1.5 gallons of 6.5ph water my run off is at 5.8 to 5.9 ish ph.
Now I'm going to mix a jug of 7 ph water and add a half a gallon at a time and check the run off.
With each time I do the watering do I ph check everything together or seperate? Like do I mix the run off from the 1.5 gallons I watered with, with the run off from the .5-1 gallon of water I will use next or is each run off measure separately

Actually I'll just keep using the 6.5 ph water. Been doing some reading and most common answer I see is discolored runoff color for me which is kinda yellow. And the other is the to correct it takes about 3:1 ratio to correct ph so 3 gallons of water per gallon of soil.
So if I'm in a 5 gallon I might need to add a bit more water lol

I doubt you kill it, I've burnt some up pretty bad before and haven't killed one yet. I don't check pH of runoff so I'm not much help on that I just check ppm of runoff .
Some plants handle nutrients differently some can take more that others . So you will probably have to adjust from what is on the chart, also low light levels require less nutes than high light levels. Even humidity has a effect on how the plants handle nutrients dialing in your environment can be a little tricky sometimes.

Well here it is now
  
Those yellow tips are indicative of phosphorus burn.
You didn't need to give them nutes, as there was clearly enough in the soil.
The leaves will start to die around the edges and yellow out, then maybe get some weird purple's and/or blues as results of mineral deficiencies bc the P burn.
Just FYI, in case later somebody tries to diagnose a mineral deficiency, it will be a byproduct of the P burn. It's a pretty common (and commonly misdiagnosed) side effect of P burn.
I'd push through the rest of the way without fertilizer personally

Also fuck the chart. They Are in the business of selling fertilizer, not giving you conservative estimates and assuming you have depleted your nutrient rich soil. As I said earlier FFOF is a hot soil. You can go through a whole hRvest without adding macronutrients using FFOF if the pot is large enough.

Well I guess we will see lol. So far only added 1.5gallons of 6.5ph cause I fell asleep waiting for it to stop dripping.
I'll just give a couple more days and I re water with some more water at 6.5ph to 7ph. And if u wonder why I chose 6.5 it's cause from the guide of whats taken up at certain ph lvl. I figured that 6.5 gave me the most play room incase the ph scale tipped in either direction.
But then I didn't take into account for the nutes in the soil to change the ph. But live and learn I guess

So like no shit........ After I posted earlier I was taking the photos and I fucking dropped my phone and hit the main kola!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
It Cracked the main stem about half way through. I literally was in like shock and slow motion when I heard a crack. Was going to wrap with tape but since it was so fragile at that point I decided not to and just got a Lil bit of hot glue and realigned the stem and presto. It's standing again and I'm hoping that it will keep out infections hopefully heal. And hopefully it's just like splicing a tree limb in a way
God I fucking suck......
I hate days like that

Your doing good for your fist grow man. Our beloved plant will live and thrive in a wide range of environments the key is being consist. Don't change things just roll with it. After a few grows your thumb will start to turn green.

Yea I'm guessing somewhere around the 15th of december or after it should be about ready to cut down. Here's a nice vid of the same strain and flower type
