Haha I always need a bumper crop :) Seems like when you need it the most is when you don't get it :(

Realized today I forgot and left my 1K running at 50% strength the first 4 weeks of flower. :( :( but didn't adjust the hood down... no wonder I got a few stretchies
is yure ballast adjustable?

Yep..home made hoods.I wanted to show the frame structure of the hood incase anyone wanted to try one out..that is just the frame from there it is covered in orca film.They are WAY WAY more effective than store bought hoods.The square piece you see in the picture is high polished stainless.This is the second hood we have made out of the orca.Second prototype if you will.
A hole and screw holes are cut in the top of the stainless dead center for the mounting of a base up bulb inside the hoodThey are 5ft sq.These are used for a large area of veg. Where more intense light is not needed.
The system is 2 gallon ebb and grow with tomato cages around the plant.The plants are 33 JTR two querkles and one critical mass 33(she didnt make the grade so wont be grown again)In this section of plants.
There is a picture of start and finish of this crop.A pic of a trimming machine also.Also a pic of a crop being processed with trays of cleaned buds.Most off of JTR and querkle.The jtr is a medium producer and the querkle is a small producer.That crop being processed was mostly off of a small producing plant.Querkle.Im running with light producing high quality plants around 1.3 lbs a lamp (600s)dry weight.
To pluck clean and replant 36 plants takes around 24 hours and the cycle is reset with more plants running.total trim time is around 6 hours.Trim,Clean,Replant,24 hours,set and running again with no stall or down time.

that's a good yield.and setup.....................gonna start flowering tomorrow,most of the plants good size overall.one plant has developed a bacteria(pathogen) cuz of the dying leaves slowly,will add 2ml of nonscented bleach to 1 liter water next watering and stop it in its tracks.
