Howdy all. I have not been in the game for a while. Trying to limber up with a single plant grow. Skipping the whole boring veg part. Growing this from seed and now on day 30 of flower. First Pic is from October 28 after a few days of primary stretch. I topped the main stem and it's now well rooted and doing its thing.
Growing under a spiderfarmer panel with a couple old area 51 panels for side lighting. Planted in pure promix and feeding only with maxibloom.

Second Pic is 11 days after first pic. Makes me really glad I topped it or this would be a little out of hand heightwise20211113_105022.jpg just after lights out this evening. Pretty pleased with progress so far. Hope to be finished by Christmas but it may need 6 more weeks. We shall see.20211122_205157.jpg

Things are looking pretty good. Got some classic mag deficiency on a few lower leaves and the plant is maybe too green for now. Going to back off from full strength maxibloom which is maybe too much N now and add some Calimagic into the mix. Buds are packing on and still entirely white so there's definitely a ways to go.

Looks like airflow isn't a problem for you! :weed:

No! I grow in a former guest room with blackout cloth on the windows. I keep the door open and there's a carbon filter with a 6 inch vortex fan exhausting out the door. Makes the whole house smell like clean laundry. In warm months I have a dual hose portable air conditioner to keep things cool.

How much airflow is required ?

Any plant needs fresh air. They breathe just like every living thing. I have never grown in a tent but I used to do hydro with hid lighting and humidity and heat would become a factor in smaller spaces. Box fans are great but exhaust fans really help replace 'this air for that'. People who do CO2 augmentation are at a whole nother level. I wish I could grow outside but I'm too far north and not legal...yet.

Just checking , because I have a 12" oscillating fan in my 5x5. No exhaust or anything. I just open the front of tent and my temps don't go above 85f. Thought I might kill shit or something ?

Nah you won't kill it but I don't point my fan directly at the plant but just off to the side on a low setting. Though of course I'm not in a tent.

I haven't used my aerocloner in 7 years or so. This thing has produced 100s of.clones back in the day but it's been in a very dirty place so I need to sterilize it. Got new discs coming Friday. Still have half a bottle of clonex from way back when so I'll be good to go. Got roots coming out of the bottom of the mother's pot so she's ready to shed a few cuts then I might go ahead and start flowering her

Just a couple of lights out pix. This is maybe day 50. Can't see this being less than 3 more weeks. We'll see!

Day 54 since flip. 2 weeks still at least. Cutting down on maxibloom because I think the N in there is slowing things down. Started adding dry koolbloom earlier this week at 1/4 t/gal. And calmag. Sidelights have definitely helped the lower buds plump up. Plant measures 34", too tall for the top light. Still going to be happy with this plant. Going to use larger pots going forward. Watering a gallon every other day right now.

Very true. My longer plan is to take cuttings, flower the mom while they get big then do a six plant run in larger pots, then who knows. I used to run up to 40 plants in a 4x8 flood and drain but I'm not up for that right now. My personal needs are small, 30 or 50 grams would be awesome, last me a couple of months lol. so two single plant runs will keep me happy until I figure out the right size of my operation. Hoping to see a change in legal status in my state within a couple of years. I am so tired of stealth. Pandemic has had a side benefit of additional privacy, also boredom....
