Well here it is......Its gonna be my test run for my next batch which is going to be more plants and determine if my 4 gal pots are two big for my area.

So this run 3 plants, 2 Alaskan Thunderfuck, and 1 Headband.

The goal is to have 6 plants going for each batch, rotating every 8 weeks.

I have had these 3 plants veg. for about 4 weeks now and still have about another 4 weeks of veg. than off to the flower room.

2 alaskan thunderfuck - Off of some clones from my greenhouse!!!

There on a 18/6 light schedule with 2 - 4ft 40watt flour. and 5 - 100watt CFL hook around the reflector.

My temps range from 75F at night to 90F on the hottest day of summer.

My PH of the soil range's from 5.8 to 6.8 or so depending if i just watered or not.

I have been LST- Low stress training for about a week now and have removed a ton of shoots, and fan leaves. But they arent minding the haircut so im going to keep doing what im doing.

I know my veg room is kinda shitty but had to use what i got and workin so far.

Headband - Name: Lizzy - She is my favorite, growing bigger and bigger everyday, the LST has been going the best with it seems to grow the right speed and angles.The others just seem to bend over while this one seems to actually grow different directions.
