First tent = Tent A
Second Tent = Tent B

Clones were staggered by a week so tent A is 1 week ahead of tent B to help the harvest process be less hectic.

Setup:

2 4x4x7 Lighthouse tents, each running its own 6" inline

Medium: FFOF soil
Pot: Smart Pots
Nutrients: Dyna-Gro, Advanced Nutrients & ATAMI
Strain: Moby Dick & Super Sour OG
Tents: Lighthouse Hydro
Fans: Lighthouse Hydro

*LIGHTS *

Magnetic
Ballast: 1000w Lightspeed Super Pro Switchable
Bulb: Generic 1000w HPS
Hood: Blockbuster 6" Air Cooled

Digital
Ballast: 1000w Revolt
Bulb: Generic 1000w HPS
Hood: Blockbuster 6" Air Cooled



Lights will remain stationary 60" above the floor during the entire grow.
Feed will be mixed in a 5 gallon container to ensure each tent receives equivalent nutrients.
Lights will be on electronic timer to ensure all tents receive fair amounts of light.
Clones were cut from the same mothers ensuring the same genetics.

**Clones were staggered by 1 week to make harvesting easier. The first set will b in tent A and will be ready 1 week before tent B.

Everything is coming along great! I added Advanced Nutrients Ancient Earth to the nute regiment and I am already seeing a difference! If you have any questions please ask, and if not thanks for checking in!

Premier Pro didn't upload the first 10 seconds of the video announcing the yield for tent A, so the final numbers are below.
These are the results based on the (2) 1000w HPS Tents, Tent A using a digital ballast in "super lumen" mode, Tent B using a magnetic ballast.

Tent A Yield - 811.3 Grams (1.81 LBS) - AVG Grams / Plant 90.1
Tent B Yield - 623.7 Grams (1.39 LBS) - AVG Grams /Plant 69.3
Total Yield - 1435 Grams (3.2 LBS)

Tents (4x4x7)
