What did she do to me grow?

Getting low on the bud so sent the wife to get me 2 or 3 fem seeds or clones. I had no idea they cost so much. Last ones I got were $20. She paid $70+ for 2 , $50, $40 and a $21 one. I just didn't want to deal with seeds and males again.

I started using my IGrow 430w and after bending for 2 weeks I told her I need another light. I don't want to grow forever again nor want to do another Horizontal grow.

I decided on a ES300 V3 with the 420 discount and an additional discount of 10%.
I put both my IGrow and the ES300 together for a week and then just removed the IGrow. 20 days later I got another light after talking with David there for almost an hour! He gave me the same price even though all the sales were over saving me over $80 each.
Flipped on 5-3

Only took 2 days to get the lights. Awesome guys! You won't get that service from Amazon. Defiantly worth the money spent.
about 10 days with the new light on 12/12.

I got a meter and PPFD app. Calibrated according to Davids recommendations. This is for comparison only and not true par readings as this is a $31 meter. Noticed uneven lighting. Light was hung 1.5" off center so moved it 3/4" and it made a difference. Then the other light came.

I ended up tilting them to the outside by 6 and 4.5 degs. David suggested 32" hang height as he did with his last grow. I tested 2 configurations and have been using the lower level one with the lights tilted.6+4.5 deg.jpg

I can't imagine this is going to easy with 5 strains in one 3x5 area.
Clones were put in 3gal fabric pots straight away in FFOF.
2 weeks later I up potted to 10gal Potato fabric pots. FFOF and started 12/12. I like the side flap.
Well Water PH 7 2 gals per pot.
82 deg F and 60 -70% RH

I've watered 2 times since flipping 5/3 with 2 gals each and full strength Bloom PH 6.5
I start watering with a 1/4"ID siphon hose on a 3' stick for about a quart or more. Then I can dump a gal at a time in without water running out the sides.

Yesterday I added 2 gals/pot of seaweed extract solution 1 TBS/Gal. Was seeing a few brown edges here and there. I forgot to check PH the first gal. The second gal was 6.2 so I brought it up to 6.5. Looked fine this morning, no change.

It looks like I maybe able to handle this because of the early bending when I thought it was going to be a horizontal grow with the IGrow's. I have one plant that goes from one end to the other. I sure like looking at all the tops.

I butchered them on 5/23. They recovered nicely.

That BLEW ME AWAY TOO!
I don't think the wife cares to look at prices or maybe she thinks the more you pay the more you get?
Those prices are criminal! They saw her coming for sure. At least I got some new lights for her actions!

That wasn't the final bill either. They charge HUGE tax on top of that. I want to say like 30%, don't hold me to that but it is outrageous tax

Not true about Amazon... Depending on what time you order, and what you order, you can get it right away, especially if you have an Amazon warehouse near you... I can order a light and get it in 1 day if they have it in house, and there's 3 or more within 25 miles away from me...

I am talking more about talking on the phone to MFG and picking their brains for 50 mins and then them giving me huge discount. I often get same day delivery form Amazon, it is the best part of Amazon, they can be pricey though. My Amazon reference was more about China products sold under them and lack of support on them.
Sorry

I do find myself price shopping now more than I used to. I have found many times that Amazon is price gouging. It is their shipping you have ot consider not just the price.

Been 6 days with the lights at this setting. I'm still using the lower par adjustments but the tops front and back are now measuring over 1350 as they grew a bit higher. They seem to be doing OK as is the rest. THey haven't grown but a inch in height throughout in 5 days. I'll take another PAR reading at bud level tonight. This is not an extended range meter.

Can you give them too much light without seeing ill effects?

These levels are higher now being I haven't raised the light. The 1049 is now 1350. Not as much change in the middle.

I saw 2 tops with a few upside down canoe and down curling young leaves. None of the others and these are not in the brightest of light spots. I turned down the lights to 8.5 on the dimmer which lowered the ppfd to 831 at the center last night to be safer. It was at 1085. Didn't notice any change this morn.
Is this anything to worry about or should I just turn the lights back up?

After putting the second layer of netting on 3 weeks ago I left the lights on for 24hrs! What as dumb poop I am. These buds are solid but not that big of colas. I'm sure I did them no good. Can't wait for the Autos next time.

So I went fishing for 5 days and Scoops burned up. My Bad, should of asked the wife to check on them. For what ever reason Scoops decided to take more feeding while I was gone. We did have a big heat wave so I guess the room finally heated up even with the new wall of spray foam. I let her recover for a week with lights on level 5 then stuck it in a box to dry.
I am not looking forward to trimming this mess.

Sour Diesel (bottom right) has more to go but the rest of the grow is getting chopped today. I took a cutting off Sour Diesel some time ago and have been chasing the sun with it outside and trying to keep it out of so much wind. Hard to do in the WIndyhills Subdivision we live in. HST the two main shoots yesterday. I'll stick it in the room now on 12/12 and start soaking a couple Berry Auto seeds I got from Seedsman. The next grow I will use just one light per plant, maybe 3 for the two ES300's and try my friends lazy man method. I want my washroom back! LOL
