Day 42 in the Fastbuds tent and after the last heavy defoliation these girls are happy and exploding with bud sites. The grow room wreaks of gassy flowers and I realized it was because my carbon filters pre filter was clogged with white residue.. (we have extremely hard water in my home and the water softener adds so much salt to the dehumidifier). I'll have to look into those big jugs for next grow. *Note to self*
The girls received 1 tsp/gal of Nature's Pride Bloom and thats all their getting so they can start to cannibalize themselves for harvest in the next 3 weeks.
I moved the 2x GSC into the 24x24 because they were growing a lot slower than the rest. One of the GSC actually started to flower and then seemed to stop producing flowers and started throwing out very tiny fan leaves at the top? Strange! Must be some sort of deficiency because one of the 2 kicked it into high gear and I moved her back into the 28x28. The other has barely grown at all and stayed the same... trying to flower but just can't get er done!
@Four20, I have owned the SF1000, SF2000 and SF4000. All fantastic lights. My preffered brand for budget Quantum Boards but I thought I would give MARSHYDRO a shot and so far, I'm extremely impressed.
Damn very nice setup! How much ya yield in a year with this setup is it enough smoke for you? are you heavy smoker ? 😅😃 and where do you have sockets for all the lights and air ? youre using socket extensions on almost everything?
@TheCode, this is my first run with this entire set up. It should be enough to fill the void of how much i smoke - and I'm sure as I grow more, I'll smoke more or start making some bubble hash, and edibles. I have 4 sockets behind the tents. I have 2 still not in use. Everything is plugged into a 1800w surge protector and I'm only drawing about 400w total. ✌️ no extensions. I have the cords are organized and rolled up.
@Fruitgrower, hey! Thanks so much. Still not exactly perfect as I'm venting into the room that I'm also drawing air from but I have no other alternative at the moment. I'm only using one Cloudline T4 exhaust fan and filter for all 3 tents, so I'll likely upgrade to the Cloudline T6 down the road, replace the Optic 1XL for a Phatslim 1XL and upgrade the Optic 2 to the Gen4. ✌️there's also room for the Wedryer XL hanging under the smallest portion of the stairs which I haven't posted about yet but I'm currently drying 4 of the 6 autos in there now.
@closetGrow, I've had about 5 different configurations over the course of my two years growing and I haven't been satisfied with any of them, so I'm sure this will change in the future. Once I convince the wife, I will set up the 4x2 and TSL 2000 I have waiting in the closet as a third tent, specifically dedicated to flowering.
