My girls will are getting a new home 3x3x6 tent vs 2x6x2. Mostly grown under t8 LEDs, first timer with a limited budget, limited space but doing what I can. Sort of RDWC separate buckets have air in each with a common resivour. All my totes need better light leak control which will be coming soon, new res and black tube for feed lines. Just wanted to say thank you for all the info that has made this possible, I have learned a lot here!!! Much to learn and a ways to go. Almost 5 weeks from seed germ, smaller one is 2-3 days behind my big girl. Same strain they say most likely different genes I will guess. More later, i needed a smoke break. 20200426_151309.jpg20200426_145848.jpg20200426_145842.jpg20200426_145644.jpg20200424_171003.jpg
 
Move complete other than a few things, like res, move air pumps, more lst and defoliation, raise 2 of the t8s, more fans... idk. I got behind a week or so on training and defoli but have room to work now so time to ketchup! 20200426_182949.jpg20200426_182933.jpg20200426_182926.jpg
 
5 weeks since sprouting, cut my lst strings to night after ? # of days. Its been a while so tomorrow I can check root health and get an idea how much longer I can veg if I desire. Multiple factors considered, I'm ready to switch to flower. One had a fim that I dimmed or at least I think and the second top has been untouched, I'm thinking top both and veg a bit longer? Waiting on some clones to take root so I know I can do it successfully, and I can grab a few more. Probably should have done a grow journal, but figured I would post hear because input is welcome! Light issues, fans, cords, better training techniques...still learning.

A couple more clones started today and 2 qb288 r specs on their way still deciding on a driver but I need my t8s back for the new veg. Flip is coming soon and I know they would appreciate more veg time but I wont have the time myself to make it worth while imo. Fem seeds so...easily hermie and that's why I'm pulling them before flip and also had never cloned before

Did a little number crunching today, and I'm only over by 68$ with many beans in stock. Cloning ability 2 rooted and a handful more started. Diy 260 watt QB V2 R spec parts should be here by Friday! Excited to flower with the added light
 
Conifer and some different lettuce, first veg space and I started with plants I wasn't too worried about killing...I have heard of the basil for cover crop in soil but haven't tried, hydro for now but weather permitting some of the clones will in soil outside
 
These two respond well to being trimmed, so I opened them up a bit more. They know I topped the mains and started filling in fast! Diy screen coming

Thanks. I'm starting to learn the site and get to different areas still. For me having fun and learning is probably the most important thing I'm looking for...but wouldn't mind a nice harvest also lol
 
Added an attic exhaust fan last night, think I have this Alexa smart plug figured out so she will be running my lights now. Automatic, digital and wifi remote controlled through my phone First 2 clones doing well and look happy, waiting on the second batch to root. Hope to build my scrog screen tonight as tent is filling in nicely

Started my diy scrog screen, 2x2 squares. I didn't weave but will tie some or most of the crosses later maybe... one tie across the bottoms held things more evenly. I can open or close any row by adjusting the number of screws or coils on every other screw!

Still waiting on my heat which should be here today! I really want to try it right now, but my driver will be pushing these 2 boards near or over the max so I'm just going to wait. Ordered 1 more board because I over selected my driver. 3 boards would be running 70 percent or so and will be better for them and I will be adding fuses

Still waiting on my last board, but I finally hung a driveway light that's been in the box for a year or so lol my wife is thrilled. Happy mother's day! Move t8s back to veg area and did a little clean up. Finishing my net, decided weaving was better than tying so I will redo the first half. Thought I should be nice and let them enjoy a sunny mother's day and flip tomorrow

Got my inline fast blow fuses installed, some zip ties and hangers! Ran outside the tent yesterday to test and now in tent. Flipped on Monday so I only get time with them in the mornings now. Pulled apart my par 600 to see what was in the case, I may borrow its fans. Plants should be much happier. Showing signs of slight nute burn because I couldn't water when I needed to a few times and Ppms got higher than I wanted
