I use Hydroguard as well, love it. That and recharge, and I’ve seem lots of improvement.

I have started using the equivalent of recharge recently (3 other products with same stuff, already had from soil grows) with amazing results so far as well.

Hi Everyone,
I ended up adding an extra week to my early transition; I still feel like she’s slow going - At this point is there anything I should be doing?
This is at day 40 (Just wondering if I can do anything to help her grow?)
Thanks,
Mike

What’s your bottles looking like?

#2 bottle is too low: #5 bottle is too full, looks like it hasn’t been touched: Maybe see if it has a kink in the line: Check to see if your ((#PHprobe)): ((#PHsensor)): has anything on it and clean it if it does: Maybe another ((#Ticket)): 
with the bottle picture to show them what they look like:

Love on Stephen 
but 
you should go back to Late Veg. ((My Opinion Only)) to get any height on her: I’ve watched obiWanKush sit in Transition and it didn’t do much for it: we have blueberry in Transition right now and she isn’t producing any leaves (which is perfect): Your small plant is way too tiny to be in Transition:

Your plant is already at the bottom of the second fan, I would let it ride on: New grows are your experiments and you can do what you want with them and make notes on if you like the change or not: Every grow from there is just a learning experiment: You get a great result then stick to whatever worked for you:

Are you using tap water?
That’s what it looks like (to me) based on the consumption of bottle #2 and lack of use of #5
If you use tap water you would be wise to ph and ppm it before using it, as well as find out if your municipality adds anything like fluoride. Better yet just get a decent 5 stage ro countertop unit ~$100, and worth every penny

Number 5 looks clogged. Any movement on it at all? I would hold her in late veg till she reaches the second fan

Hey guys, thanks for the help. I’ve only ever used distilled water in the unit; I massaged the line, and used a long sterile qtip and changed the water…hopefully that helps, I’ll keep an eye on it today and tomorrow.
My next question is - What should I be doing on her for maintenance at this point? Should I be thinning it out at all?

She is a hungry little thing!

Should I be cleaning up any of those leafs closer to the pod? There’s only 3 maybe 4 nodes but she has definitely taken a positive turn over the last 2-3 days - on Stephens advice I’m going to extend transition and keep reaching for that second fan.
Thanks guys,
Mike

When, or do you plan to top?

I’m wondering that myself lol I have zero idea about how I should care for her at this point.
I’d like to, think?

Go ahead and top her
Aside from topping do I do any other clean up or wait until it’s bigger?

Hi friends! Brief update here and an ask for advice. My girl is on day 61 total/day 2 of flower. After a rough start she certainly bounced back!
My question is - she’s still pretty short. I haven’t “really” been lollipopping because what I’ve read tells me to leave a foot of growth and that’s really all she has, but I have been removing some fan leaves from her lower branches.
Will the first few days of flower push her taller or is she going to focus on making buds now?
Should I push her back a stage to transition until she grows taller?
Or am I overthinking and she’s fine?
She’s a white widow, which I think I’ve read can be a short stocky breed.
Any other advice or tips?
Thanks for all your help!
