Bad idea?
Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent? I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.

Ripen - yes or not, when to start?
How much more time do you think Purple Lemonade needs? She is a 63 day old. I think Purple Lemonade will be ready first. When should I start using ripen on it and is it a good idea?

Moldy molasses okay for compost tea/compost tea storage
The new container of molasses I bought has mold growing in it. For baking that would be a throw away, but I am curious if that is still usable for making teas. I have seen some soils that add tricoderma and others, just curious? Also can a tea be stored for a week after brewing?

Green light
How bad is it if I left The green light that I have in my grow room just like a light for me to see when it’s dark because they say green is the one the years I left it on during the dark 12 hour dark. Should I keep them in dark and literally just do a full 24hr darkness or what?

Day 72 - Time for Flush? Time til Chop?
It is currently day 72. I had a calmag deficiency 2 weeks ago but that has been resolved since adding 1-0-0 general hydroponics solution. There’s about a 2% to 3% amber trichomes development but many clear trichomes at this time. Please give opinion based on macro shots taken

Need Partial Harvest Advice
In week 3 of flower, WW RQS FEM PHOTO, still another 6 weeks to go. In about 10 days, I'd like to maybe cut an ounce off the top, do a quick water cure and dry on it while the rest keeps growing. Will that ounce be 50% strength or? Thoughts/tips/advice? Yesterday's pic attached.

Hello! Does anyone have any ideas for how to space the trees under the light to be the most uniform when they get bigger? What kind of training would be best? What if they never stop doubling in size?? Should I PH balance every watering (goes up a little) Hope you enjoy the grow!

Flushing or feeding
Im already flushing the plant for 2 weeks but as the Trichomes are not changing much it will need some more time to fully develop. I want to see some (10%) amber trichomes.What should I do now? Continue flushing or give some organic nutrients again? Probably need 2 weeks more.

What equipment do you use for creating time lapses?
I've setup a Wyze Cam V3 Pro, and while it claims to be 2K resolution the picture is really poor. I've heard some people use retired phones for this, what's your method?
