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.

This stuff looks and smells fantastic! Some nice sized cola's, CRAZY color, and absolutely covered in trichomes!

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.
This gal started out in the 8x4, but eventually I moved her into the 3x2 to save some space and make swapping out buckets easier every other week (when they get big, it gets hard to do so without damaging colas)
Came to find out that the Vivosun tent lets in light after a while. The corners of the Velcro window curl over time - be warned! (tape up the inside with HVAC) Lead to this gal putting out some banana's, I luckily caught it the day of - found the light leak and covered it. Crisis averted!
I did very much appreciate the extra space, but it did however put this gal too close to lamp! Nothing crazy close, but enough to cause some noticeable light stress on our foliage - but no hermies! I dropped the turn dial to 75% and she did just fine.
~~~~~~~~~~
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 as 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 Rudeboi OG (pressed, no shred)
{2nd QWISO}: 1.9gs - using all remaining trim from both this gal and the Rudeboi OG (~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.
A little more weight to her than anticipated (117.2g / 8g kief), wasn't sure I would see a qp with this gal. The top colas had some nice weight to them!
