If you've taken the time to drop in, welcome and I hope you enjoy my ladies while you're here. Right now they're kinda young but luckily we're talking about plants so we're all good.
I'm running-
3 GPS Purple Chem feminized
1 Zurple Purple feminized
1 Crumpets feminized
I'll be growing them in 12gal bag/6gal rez Octopots. Never used em before but after bumping into them on YouTube and seeing a few nice ass grows with em I figured I'd give em a try. They're basically just fancy hempy buckets with some minor differences between the two (Same same but different, lol). Sound science; should work good.
For lighting I'll be using 4 125w 4000k qb288 boards for veg and a mixture of High Light red (2700-2800k CRI 95)
and High Light UV (3000k (2700k + 6500k UVA CRI 94)
made by GrowLightsAustralia for flower. They're currently under 6500k t5 but will be going under the 4000k LEDs tomorrow after I get my boards in the mail and put them together.
Don't currently have a fan with temp controller but it's on the way and not extremely necessary right now anyways IMO. Since I keep the tent flap partially open and my house is drafty as hell there's plenty of air exchange for now. Not a necessity until flower when I'm gonna need it to help me keep control of humidity.
Probably gonna run shit nice and sealed eventually and supplement co2 but I need to get my feet wet again and make sure I'm dialed in before I add that potential shit show to the mix since it has been 8 years since I've fucked around indoors. Probably try my hand at RDWC next grow as well but like I said it's been awhile and wanted something a little easier until I get back in the swing of things. I've done soil and DWC in the past so I think eventually it's gonna be time to try and grow like the pros.
Lot of shit has changed but most is the same, it's crazy that LED has seemingly caught up and maybe surpassed HID. I can't wait to see for myself though. I gotta admit it's kinda nerve racking trusting a new technology when I need this shit to help me sleep and live with a little less aches and pains but fuck it I've seen enough others doing their thang with em so let's go.
***In regards to the size difference***
The one in the middle and one in the front right are replacements for 2 that dampened off on me due to unfamiliarity with a new media I think since I usually have no problem germing beans. The one in front right is 6 days behind and the one in middle is 5 days behind.
Also the slight yellow is some mild heat/light stress they're already recovering from. I left the heater I use during lights off on accidentally and had them at 93 degrees for an hour or two while I made dinner. Turns out t5s will bleach plants if it gets too hot. Also might've had light too close who knows. It's remedied now so on with the show.

. I love tie down time. It's so fun watching them turn into bushes without the longer waiting time that topping causes. Got some minor deficiencies happening right now so I've upped the PPM in my top off water and started foliar feed at lights on for a couple days and all but two have snapped back except the one in back right and front left but they're coming along. Must be some hungry ass bitches. Gonna be a pain in the ass making separate batches of top off water since I see these two look like they're gonna be hungrier than everyone else but that's one of the things that I like about separate containers no matter what method you use when you're working with multiple strains from seed or different cultivars. Being able to give them all what they want and nothing more is always clutch and that's not easy when they're all in one system. I see if I ever do RDWC that I'll need to run all the same cultivar to avoid issues with varied appetites.
and I'm starting to think she's just a picky bitch and I'm hoping she'll grow out of it...
