My closet is 3ft. x 2.75ft. So, I'm at about 30 watts per sq.ft. which is a bit low. Although, the light pulls a bit more than that in reality... about 270 watts. I suppose I only need about 330 - 350. But, I'll stick the additional COBs on a dimmer and run them softer than that, and then if I...

The nice thing about the Autopot is I can lift the pot and wick out of the reservoir. The reservoir, tray and fill valve are all separate from the pot. The limiting factor is the largest pot size is 6.6 gallons. But, then again, I wouldn't want to lift anything larger than that anyway. I do...

I ran my humidity around 70% with temps around 82F until about midway through flower and then dropped my humidity to mid- 50's. I was trying out the VPD chart. But, I can't get much lower then 55 RH based on the same issues you're having... Oregon. That's pretty interesting you've noticed more...

Nice clean lower canopy. Have you switched to flower? I had my net a bit too low and made it difficult to clean up the lower junk. I wanted to make sure I had plenty of space above the net for stretch. But, next time I'm either going to go without a net or raise the net. I liked how the Autopot...

Yeah, the buds on the left plant are a bit small. The other plant is a bit better. My light may be a bit light on power, but I think I will soon remedy that. And I think I will have plenty for my own personal stash. I'm really liking the remote reservoir. It holds about 10 gallons which lasts a...

Just came back from a one week vacation and things are fine. One plant is yellowing out quickly now and it looks close to harvest. I may chop it this weekend. The other plant needs a bit more time.

I noticed a bunch of springtails floating around and jumping around in the water res. at the bottom of my pots. Has anyone run into this in their SIPs?

Definitely cover them. You'll save a ton of water. You can also grow a mycelium mat under the cover to help break down any organic nutrients you're adding.

Finished week 3 flower.

I lifted the plastic to do a top dress of amendments and noticed a bunch of feeder roots sticking out of the compost layer.

Thanks. So far I'm really liking going organic. It's working very much like my outdoor SIPs. I wasn't sure if I could pull it off in 6.6 gallon pots.

I'm clearly seeing two different phenos from the same seeds. One has a bit more stretch and lighter green leaves. They're stacking now. At some point I will add a bit more nutrients to the top of the SIPs. They're in week 3. I'm thinking I might amend at the end of this week and they should be...

Week 2 of flower complete. Definitely saw some stretch this week, but kept the canopy tidy.

I'm very familiar with the Gorge. I'm out there about once a month in Mosier. Although, in Mosier there is a bit more sun.

It's been a pretty bad winter across the country this year. I'm over it. I think the vegetable garden will be a month late this year.

This looks interesting as a way to heat the closet or tent without adding light... ceramic mogul base heater. https://t.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/zilla-ceramic-heat-emitter-100-watts#

Ah, okay... not too far away.

Ha! And a place that never stops raining... at least this year. I didn't realize Humanrob is from Oregon. It's cool to have fellow Oregonians on here. Are we all Portland? No need to answer if that's a bit too personal.

Build a cistern and connect to the SIP reservoir and then all they might need is occasional compost/ ferts. Unless it's in a place that doesn't get any rain.

Would the reptile bulb be proving IR, UVA & UVB? If that's the case then it might raise my internal leaf temp. and allow me to run my room air temps. lower maybe around 76 - 79F. I know right now my leaf temps are whatever my air temp is and therefore I keep the room around 80 - 85F. Anyway, a...
