After dealing with floods and other issues with my cabinet we decided it was time for an upgrade. When ripping out the old cabinet I discovered black mold under the floor from repeated floods. So now I've come full circle and I'm back in a tent lol. I went with a ac infinity 5x5 for my flower tent and pulled my old 3x3 gorilla tent out of storage to use for veg/seedling/clone

In the big tent I'm growing nine GG#4 clones from the previous grow. It was a nice heavy producing pheno and it was the only seed that I was able to successfully germinate after Canada Post tried to crush them all. I'm running two HLG 350R lights and a new watering system that I made. I'm finally running a tray so no more uncontrolled floods lol. I flipped the timer over to 12/12 last night.

I've only been running the watering system for a couple days, but it seems to be working really well!

In the 3x3 gorilla I'm running the original HLG 300 that I bought when I started growing. I have some upgrade plans for this light in the future.

The weekend we ripped out the cabinet I had the electrical panel upgraded. We had one of those old fashioned panels that had glass fuses. I had them run a 20amp circuit into the grow room. No more blown fuses we plug a powertool in!

Here's a pic of the gorilla glue that the clones came from. It's a josey wales cut that @curious2garden reversed. I'm so happy with the smoke and and bud production. I running GH flora series in coco perlite mix.

One week of flowering done. I really like this pheno. It has so few leaves and they don't get very large. It needs almost no training, top it once and let her rip. The only trimming I've done is to clean up a little around the base of the plants. They're just starting to show first signs of flower.

I decided I wanted ring emitters but didn't want to pay for them, so I'm running some home made jobbies. They seem to be working well so far.

Two weeks post flip. They're just starting to show signs of lower now. My homemade rings seem to be working pretty well. All the plants are similar heights except one that's like six inches taller than all the rest. I picked up the ac infinity accessory bars for my tent. I was noticing that I was losing more than a foot of space to negative pressure. Seems to work well, it's not as nice as the gorilla high cfm kit and took a lot of effort to install.

Love the new setup and watering system! Controlling the uncontrolled spills is important, I've put trays under everything even just for drips!

My floor in the old cabinet had enamel paint and a thick coat of flexseal and it somehow still managed to get black mold underneath it. >:( Now my trays are larger than my reservoir so it should never happen again.

Week three flower done. Quite a bit of stretch, but they've hardened off and slowed their advance a bit. This is the ultimate lazy person's strain lol. I haven't had to do any training or canopy management. Just topped one and let it rip. I was going to lollipop a bit but I'm getting such good light penetration that I didn't think it was necessary.

28 days later. Stretch is fully done, they're pretty leggy lol and stacking fast. I would estimate the stretch is about four times their height when I started flower. Still haven't done any defoliating or training. I probably could have done a little more lollipopping but the light penetration seemed pretty good so I left it.

I also started my next project over the weekend. 12 Mosca Seeds C99 regulars.

That looks like it's shaping up to be a pretty solid yield. How does gg4 yield? My brother asked me if I could find some gg4 recently and I told him I'd look into it.

This is the donor plant for the clones. She produced very well considering I neglected the grow a lot and rushed it through. It doubled what I was pulling from the critical orange punch. The jar on the left is one GG and the one on the right is two critical orange punch.

There's a funny story behind these seeds. @curious2garden reversed a josey wales cut and sent me probably 50 seeds. Canada Post had a hayday crushing them >:( I looked at them under a microscope and found a few that weren't cracked and this was the only that popped. Just lucked out that it also happened to be a winning phenotype.

The garden looks fantastic! I've never smoked C99 but I've heard a lot of good stuff. It'll be nice to see how they produce for you.

I don't know that I've smoked C99 either. Unfortunately those seeds were a bust. I've never had 0% success rate with seeds so that leads me to believe they were just too old. I opened up one of the jiffy pellets to look and it hasn't even cracked.

Fortunately the GG are doing fantastic. I started dropping the PPM on Saturday.
