Finally these things are just kicking over and I can start training them. 2 of the cuts (1 of each strain) didn't do well off the hop and I haven't been doing much to them just letting them sit under 24/0 on 40% to establish. Once I notice the other 2 perking up I'll gradually increase the light intensity over a few days and get these girls filling up that 2x2. Pics to follow

Man this one on the right is being super annoying. Taking her time to kick over. The others have taken off already. Now it's time to bend em over and shape them up fill up that 2x2 footprint. Stay tuned!IMG_20210911_123019.jpgIMG_20210911_123123.jpg

Really been neglecting this run with salmon fishing in full swing. I've pulled at least 5 all nighters with no sleep till the next night lol lotta late nights and eaaarly mornings lol. Had to catch up on yard work and general maintenance and just finally got some time to maintain this. Will do some bending right now then update a couple shots. Veg is boring everyone wants the Bud shots! One thing I noticed with the light is it does need to be fairly close to maintain the par levels otherwise it can drop off pretty quick. It still gives decent coverage in a 2x2 but we will see what happens with the bud production.

Iv noticed the exact same thing. It’s pretty solid for the 2x2 print but that’s about it.
im gonna up pot the few this week sometime and begin 12/12 I gotta go buy some more dirt tho. Have everything ready but that.

Well I finally had some time on my hands and I think what I'm gonna do is a 'micro' grow with 4plants in 1gal maybe 2gal containers. Let's see what we can do with one sf1000 and a 4plants.
Here's some readings with my photobio by phantom. It's not really 'scientific' I didn't measure out the bottom footprint etc so don't take the readings as the bottom line but it gives a solid idea.
Readings were from 12", 18" and 24" in a 2x2 one reading with door open one reading with door closed
12"

I've also decided to use my Remo nutes tester. I haven't used it before but I need to use it up and they're just small 250mls so why not use em up. Pretty sure my buddy's got some kicking around he's not using too

Lol haven't done much to these gals here other than watering. Have some time today so gave them a final bend and pinching. Now I'll let them start to grow again for the next 3 days or so and flip. Might get pretty crowded in there but some heavy defoliation and keeping that air moving will be key. I'll cull out some smaller branches if need be.IMG_20211002_133441.jpgIMG_20211002_133446.jpg
So far the sf1000 has been working great. Curious to see what it does in flower. Time will tell!

I’m loving mine so far too. I have a very dense canopy. Gonna transplant today and switch to flower. I over grew the light without a doubt. I figure I can just keep the bottom bald and hopefully pull weight from the tops alone.

I'm just flipping to flower too. Next day or two. That's why I've been bending them and pinching so heavily. Keep them as low as possible then flip and just grow tops in the 2x2 space. Kinda maximize the light on the canopy.
