Autoflower Blue Dream

The second larger plant is on day 43 and the smaller plant is around day 47-48. Both plants are very healthy. They both bounced back from last week's LST. At least 16 buds sites. I was going to use three - five gallon pot in my 2x2 tent on the next grow, but I think I just need to stay with two. Im allowed to grow four plants. So I need to figure that out. Im thinking of getting a 3x3 tent with a Migro Array 3 LED light. Keep two plants in the 2x2 for vegetation and 2 in the 3x3 for flowering. That way Im harvesting every two months or so. Thoughts? Maybe I should get a 4x4 and just grow all four plants at once. I received my first full months electric bill since I started this grow. I used next to no additional energy. I did raise my a/c temp to 72 degrees to keep the grow room around 78-82 degrees. So the offset yielded no real increase. Back 15 years ago I used HPS lighting. I had two 440 watt units. Big difference. My grow room then was around a 5x5 but it was in a concrete enclosure under my porch. I had a very hard time managing the temp swings. I never checked my PH or TDS either. I believe these two autoflowers will out produce anything I was doing then. Very excited about the growth so far. The does not seem to have any stress at all. The PH from my tab is at 9.0, but only 160 TDS. I was literally shocked on how high it was. Im bringing down the PH to 6.4 or so. Im sure I would have had issues if I didn't address the PH. Sorry for the on and on. I tend to make a lot of notes for the next grow.
