Great product, zippers are reliable, no light leaks.
Drops of PH-UP will leave black spots on the material, ruining it overnight. Be mindful! Quick wipe is all it needs.

We flowered with 1 XS2000 - split the garden between two tents for easier access mid-grow. Diary won't allow for adjusting so the stats are a little off.
I originally moved this gal into the 3x2 with the Alien Rock Candy so as to save space and make things easier in the 8x4. Right after doing so - this gal doubled in size and then some! I then had to swap her back with the smallest White Widow, or risk some serious light damage, poor tasting bud, and potentially banana's. This unfortunately lead to some extra/larfy foliage - I let her stay cramped in the 3x2 too long before swapping her for the fix. Of course it's primarily the pheno that's pushing all this foliage - but having her cramped with minimal light pen / airflow did NOT help.
After moving her back to the 8x4 she immediately began to perk back up, bamboo wedge to open her up and most the larf branched out.
We did see a break in the center stalk mid veg (was working too fast, lesson learned). I tackled that with wood glue and some painters tape - two or three coats over the course of a week and she was as good as new. Very sturdy, and she never missed a beat!
~~~~~~~~~~
During this grow I was forced to constantly changed out air stones! The 3 sets I have are very clogged with photo plus. This led to an oxygenation system that was constantly back n forth, up n down. I'm fairly certain this is why all my plants took a little longer this time around and weren't quite what they could have been - hard to do much when your being choked!
I will be switching to Southern AG for the next grow - looking like I will be staying in DWC for a little while and trying out some hydrobuckets with my current system unchanged - but with the ability to trellis! I will be moving and will then have full access to my tent from both sides. I will also adjust my feed chart a bit (I need to redo it, for some reason my excel spreadsheets disappeared)
Halfway thought this grow I stopped filling to 2'' below the netcup. So as not to waste so much - Now I start my two weeks at the netcup, and let it drain. I fill when one bucket has emptied enough that I cannot let it go another day - and from here I am now topping off at ONE to TWO gallons so as to not waste so much. You do not need to be 2'' from the netcup at all times - in fact, staying below and letting it drain creates small amounts of drought stress and naturally BOOSTS root growth. Let it drain!
~~~~~~~~~~
All in all - a pretty successful grow! Getting all the kinks ironed out and it's looking like this system of DWC will do me well. Next couple grows I will be dialing in my recipe a bit, trellising!, and will look to improve upon my stress training.
Unfortunately, due to the heat being on in my place my dry was way faster than desired - should have thrown in the humidifier!
{1st QWISO}: 2.7gs - using a half jar of sugar leaves w/a couple premature buds from both this gal and the Alien Rock Candy
{2nd QWISO}: 1.9gs - using all remaining trim from both this gal and the Alien Rock Candy (~half jar after running it through the trim bin for keif) The first run was a little heavy on the chlorophyl for my taste, so for this one I shortened my wash time to 2 minutes, w/minimal stirring.
Not quite as much weight to this gal as anticipated! Gal sure was big, and looked girthy
but alas, only 95.7g / 7g kief.
