Starting week 8. Dropping the temps and RH this week. Got some slight foxtailong going on, but it’s not crazy. Dropped the CO2 to 750ppm. We’ll see how we finish.

Mother tent is set up and working well!.. Gorilla makes some pretty nice stuff! I’m still organizing some shit, but the environment stabilized pretty well.

It’s been a smooth minute since I’ve updated this experimental grow, but we’ve started taking down some top colas on Early Lemon Berry, and Kosher Sorbet. The Orange Kush Cake and Dosi Whoa! are just about done.
And this is some of the new inventory for the next run. Orange Kush Cake (love this one), Tenth Planet, Grape Diamonds, and Dosi Whoa!
...and the Mothers seem to be loving their new home!

Well, I think I have finally got myself out of trimming. I do the harvesting of the buds, put them on the table for the crew to pull fans, and clip the tips of material that dont' have any trichs on them. I'll come back and hang on the wires from the hanging stand by the table, and that's about it until it's time to buck. I dont' mind bucking buds. Once we get all of the bucked buds in the CureTubes, we'll break out the GreenBroz and I'll run the machine while everyone else at the table does a final hand finish. I hope i've trimmed my last bud LOL!

Lights out. Dosi Whoa! and Orange Kush Cake made some massive dense colas this round. Can’t wait to see the labs and final weight. Lots of work to do tomorrow, water the new clones for the next round, feed the mothers, clean up a bit, got an inspector coming to sign off on our renewal, busy days ahead.

Whazzup Mommas?? Planted from clones 6/27/20 I really can only see maybe 2 of these mothers I’m gonna kick, but I’m liking the rest of them. The 6th run in the grow were picked from these.

AirROS 4014 engaged and leveled at 30ppb

links?
And I don't mean from the manufacturer, because of course they are always enthusiastic about their own device.
But looking for more independent reviews, because I can't easily find them.

Just got this up yesterday, so it will be a while before we have got solid results like no signs of Botrytis at harvest. But upon installation, after a few min, it just smelled like fresh clean air in there. It took a while for the system to clean the air and I got no H2O3 readings for a couple of hours as it cleaened up the room and built it up. I had to set it to 100% power to do the initial cleaning and as the H2O3 built up, I backed it down to 85% for it to level out to ~30PPB. Other than that, it’s plug and play. The noise level is pretty high, but it sounds like the beginning of “Sofie Needs a Ladder” by Deadmau5. It has a built in SD card that records every 72 second reading that can hold years of information, a fan RPM gauge so you can see if your piping has too many elbows (my piping was very simple and non restrictive), to see if you are building too much back pressure. A very slick little unit! Maintenance is going to be about $1000 a year for 2 filters and 2 sensors. Oh yeah!, AirROS prob has the best customer service I’ve ever experienced.

SUMMER EXPERIMENT: FINAL WEIGHTS!
So, as most of you know, we just ran a 1/3 rd of the room to see if our AC system could handle the summer heat without upgrading AC units. About midway through (at the flip), we installed a CO2 generator and some mylar on one wall. Thats all we did different from the past grows. Other than maybe a little more time training during late veg, and some side lighting in flower for about 5 weeks. Same cloned plants from the same mothers, same nutes, schedule, etc. These are the average plant weights by comparison, market ready........
Grow 4 , Grow 5 (experiment)
Early Lemon Berry 140.7 grams Early Lemon Berry 251.1 grams
Kosher Sorbet 108.2 grams Kosher Sorbet 213.33 grams
Dosi Whoa! 127.2 grams Dosi Whoa! 292 grams
Orange Kush Cake 128.9 grams Orange Kush Cake 250.4 grams
Total weight for the summer experiment with 28 plants was 6,804 grams total, or 243 grams average per plant for around 14.9 lbs total.
As you can see, this was a huge difference. CO2? Training? Bad growing on Grow 4?
Now, I just need to replicate that again on a larger scale. Grow 6 is 30 days in.

15lbs and only a 1/3rd of the room! Your going to be getting 50lb harvest in no time. Would be about double your last grow. Well done!

Thanks brother!.. I know, Im scratching my head thinking what I did differently other than the obvious. These numbers just don't match up to "just adding CO2"..Genetics from pheno hunting? The added side lighting for 5 weeks?... Covid19?. Bidens blithering for weeks?, California wildfires? IDK man.

Good question.. I was under the assumption that it was PPB of H2O3 on the AirROS. Lemme ask Michael tomorrow.
