my second grow

[buzzkillz]

this is my second grow, i am in about a 10 x 10 room, in a beasement. for light i upgraded to a perfect sun mega star (575watts). for soil i ran fox farm ocean and as i had a bunch left that i didnt want to waste. seed are from true north im growing 2 god bud (reg seed), 1 gg#4. a kushy kush, a cheese and a blue berry. i started the seeds using paper towel then once they popped they went to a 4x4 rockwool cube. then when roots came out the bottom they went to a 3 gallon fab pot. all thru veg they were fed just ph water and switched between orca and recherge. but using mammath p the whole time at .6 ml per gallon. when i got to 6 weeks in veg i transplanted into 7 gallon fabric pots and lollipoped/ took clones, i gave them around 4 days then flipped to 12-12 and now im on day 10 of flower,


my plants started turning that purplish color again and i suspect its from me watering without runoff. so i bought new treys and little racks under the pots so i can get runoff and can just shop vac it up. the first watering after i changed that the ppm of runoff was around 2000, quite a few watering later my last runoff was around 660 for most of them but one was at around 1000ppm runoff. they seem to be greening up so i think that was my prob, other then that this grow seems to be going perfect. the only other thing that i see maybe being a prob is fungus gnats, i put yellow sticky card in the top of all my pots theres maybe 5 or 6 per card but it doesnt seem to be getting any worse as maybe the wet dry cycle is keeping them at bay. if so i have some of that glass crap to put on the only reason i havent yet is it seems like it would be a pain in the balls to water with that crap on there.

im new and any advise is welcome

oh and my temps are lights ON 72-82 and OFF 68-72, humidity 50-55%,.. water i ph 6.3-6.8, i water 2 gallons for everyone 7 gallon pot. im using those co2 bags which are really inconsistent as the ppms range from 460-1900, my delivery of co2 might be my next upgrade. being im in a cold wet basement a burner might work well for me. as for humidity all i run is a dehumidifier and i have it up off the ground and draining in a tote due to it filling and shutting off before i can make it over to my grow. it got to the point where almost daily it was full and humidity was almost 70% so good thin g i was in veg now flower

Your strains are awesome. Looks like your doing a good job. Wet dry cycle lis important. Goood job.

I suggest you to try the white color leds next time. I think it is better than the old purple.
Here is the light that i was using: https://www.marijuanapassion.com/threads/which-light-should-i-use.75325/page-9

update......it is now day 16. everything is looking good i think. just gave them 1/4 dose of bio-bloom and bio bud, with recharge and mammoth p. temps hit around 82 lights on and around 69-71 lights off. watering about every 3 days @ 2 gallons per 7 g pot with runoff around 600-800. when it the best time to do a light leaf strip?
