Thanks a Million @Caligurl & @kaptain3d. Diatomaceous Earth is in. Spray will be here tomorrow. Will also wipe down the tent for good measure.

Tuesday update: Damn Thirps! Thank you @Caligurl. I Drenched the soil and sprayed the plants over and under the leaves with Captain Jacks. 2 more days of spraying.
The last 2 waterings have only been 6.6 PH water. The last fertilizing was 3 weeks ago. Added some COM B&B and at @merlin44 suggestion, a half dose of FF Grow Big to boost the N at the start of flower to help the last production of leaves and stretch. Starting a batch of Bobby’s Brew Flower Tea for the Friday morning watering. They should be dry by then. Other than the Thirps and the one GSCX they look good. The one Mystery plant is turning purple. Cool to watch. Running at 1100 ppfd at the tops and around 850-900 in the mids.
Then there are these 2 little turds. I added some DE just in case the thirps spread. They are a little slow going. I have the humidifier on and the heater blowing in the teen. The office is a bit warm but manageable.

Thank you @merlin44. We’re cruising right along. Mid to late June these should finish up. Then I’ll veg out those tiny plants into big ones. I hope you and Mrs. Merlin have a good day.

Tuesday update and nothing to update. Start of week 5 in flower. Done with the Dead Bug, added the tea, moved them around a bit and waiting for them to dry out before next 6.8 water only. I may add the last feeding of the flower amendment. Other than that it’s a waiting game. First three are the GSCX, the last two are the FB420 plants.

And just like that you can screw up your plants. One day after the last post 
I should have taken a pic before I trimmed off all the dead and dying yellow leaves. I watered the 4 in the corner plants with the tea. Not paying attention I forgot to PH the tea. DON’T BE SO STONED CHUNKY!
Anyway, I took soil samples from the 4 and ran a slurry test. PH 5.7. So today I go and pull my regular tap water which is 8.1-8.4 ph. What the hell it’s reading 7.1. Recalibrated the pen 2x and same 7.1. Damn water company.
I just went with that for today’s water and ran it with 20% runoff. PH out was 6-6.1. and over 4k ppm. In 3 or so days I’ll see if the water company reverted otherwise I’ll add some baking soda to 7.5 and see if that helps.

It also could have been the Captain Jacks over 5 days too. Who knows? I sure as hell don’t
