Feel free to chime in and ask anything. I'm not a shill for Mega Crop and still don't know how the finished product will be. I'm just giving it a strait shot with nothing added to see what it can do and report both good or bad. I'm impressed and the girls are very healthy.

Good looking plants,
Just got my free sample in the mail today I’m going to give it a run. I was just curious how much height you had to work with

I can go to 5'8, My fan and filter are outside of the tent so I have full head room. My light is a HLG QB304's x 2 Its very thin profile "also run the driver outside the tent".

How solid are the stems? Curious if the stems are well formed and strengthened.

As good if not better than when I used GH ArmorSi. Page 3 shots under the canopy you can see the trunks and stems. Also note the lack of purpling of the stems.
Every strain and every pheno in a strain is different and I kind of get the argument using multi bottle lines. None the less I always felt I was chasing something or some kind of emerging issue. I like the ease of just one part and done and not having any issues. Trust me when I tell you that I keep expecting something and we may see it.
This is not a production run its just for testing and not a reflection of how I grow. The stunted plant on the left would have been pulled and I would have centered the one plant. I just flipped to flower and see how they do. I like the soiless vs soil although different, I will stay with it. MC - I like it so far.

Seeds, about a week and a couple days.
Question ? Why ask if these are clones if the first pic shows newly transplanted baby plants ? From my understanding clones are much bigger.

Don't know - I've never done clones. Reason I ask is because I started seeds on 1 Oct, so your grow is a good comparison. I'm in soil, and its been a LONG time since I've grown anything. I have been taking pictures every Sunday, so maybe should start a grow log. Your plants look good!

It s a soil replacement without going full blown coco, I like it and will be staying with it. Unlike strait coco that uses PH 5.8 The Basement mix likes it at PH 6.3. I caught this early on and adjusted.

Good folks at Royal Gold like Mega Crop. I have used and like Royal Gold's Tupur. They respond to emails with help very quickly.

Weekly update starting in week 3 and on autopilot, The stretch has slowed a bit and the bud sites look good. Everything is still green and healthy with no issues I can spot. Not bad for a 185W.

As I stated the girl on the left was stunted due to the topping grew into a double bud. Under a normal grow I would have removed it and just grew out the one on the right. I didn't do my normal plant grooming and training ether. Since I'm just testing I just let them do there thing.The plants are bustin out of that tent. Super healthy, bushy with tremendous growth. I wonder if you will pull a LB off of 175 watts? Rock on bro.
You may want to adjust the QB board because the one side may not be getting as much light.
What's on deck will be back to it regularl scheduled program.

Looking great @ChaosHunter , looks like you are using a gorilla tent, recently got one myself and love it, supierior product. Are those horizontal support posts for scrog netting? Or are they simply additional support?

Side support, Gorilla tent sells them, it keeps the sides from sucking in with high cfm's. I also use them to hang off of for drying.

I forgot, my bad. I bet the stunted one will catch up with those good MC nutes, RG coco and QB lights.
