I have 2 females out of the 8 I popped. I'm thinking of popping more to get a couple more girls in the mix to pick from.

How have you liked the Elev8 beans? How do they grow and smell?

They grow and smell great so far but I only got two females in a ten pack so that was kinda crappy but that's why i just vegged these a little longer/bigger to fill the space. We will see how it works. I will be running clones of each in rdwc soon as well for comparison to the Coco and drain to waste.

They have a real earthy piny and slight minty scent to them. And both blew up in veg recently after being topped for a second time. I might have to remove the flood tables and stand and hand water in a Tupperware ware or something for the added height. We shall see.

Thanks brother been following your COB grow as well looks good.
I've got a 6 light cxb cob 3590 from timber grow lights that I haven't even unboxed . The guy told me that light will only do a 2x2 or at best 3x3 and for 600 bucks . I was bummed that I would need 3 or 4 more sets of that light to make a good grow in a 4x8 gorilla grow tent ? . Plus I will still have to run ac? I'm still on the fence plus I don't have 2400 bucks to throw at lights right now . How much heat do you get off of the 4 your running ?

Warmest that tent has been so far during the day is 76. That's plenty fine with me for having the 320W on full blast lol in the 3x3. I am VERY happy so far with the light, if it can match or beat my 315 CMH we have a winner. If it can match the 600W MH/HPS that would be killer too but I think it will land me somewhere in between the CMH and the 600w we shall see that's the purpose of this for me to see the testing and results in my garden with my eyes lol. I can't wait to get the new veg light up just waiting on the frame and need to order the lenses.

76 with no ac running ? What are you putting together for veg ? I'm pretty sure that is what came with my light is the 320 but I have 6 lights? Maybe I should run it with 5 lights so they have more power ?

I still have 7 seeds left in that pack and a whole separate pack of the Bx1f1's to run. You never know from seeds the ratio your going to get. As long as they are stable and productive I'll be happy. The close are stink inking up my room with a sour funk at the moment. It dissipates once you enter the room but when the door is first opened it slaps you in the face and calls you papa... :)

For veg I will be using the same frame 4 citizen 1812 5000K 70CRI cobs 120mm pin heat sinks mean well 240-C1050B driver glass lenses etc etc. It will be run in a 3x3 as well.

As for A/C the house AC runs at whatever temp we set and then I have a portable AC unit that I run on low setting. Today was 90 outside 76 in the cob tent 81 under the T5 in veg

Nice. Then they must run pretty cool then ? T5 runs super hot in my experience.
