Nice “bro” any more corrections
Reserva Privada X-18 Pure Pakistani

Oh Samsung 55w lights, cool. i thought you might have had COBs. They grow nice plants so far.With those lights you don’t need to have as much clearance between the light and canopy as with COBs.Ya GC i always move them for their best no problemo, now sexed i will remove them soon.
The fan is Honeywell on 1 of 3 speed and slightly directed to LED and not to plants. The air stream goes over and then comes back but as i said previous there's is a lack of humidity yesLEDs are Samsung and 55W, SpectraBulb by FloraLED. (My reflectors are not really useful for them)

..but still 50-60cm maybe for soil growing, depending on enviro-factors. When you grow with coco/hydro styles you can keep your plants closer to leds/cobs cause hydro plants won’t dehydrate as easily as plants growing in soil.
I always dim my lights down abit when i’m making seeds, or atleast keep my plants a bit farther away from my Cree COBs than my sensi-plants. Less stress.
Yea, i’d keep the taller ones a bit to the side of the lights cause it’s starting to show stress symptoms on them – the slight yellowing little dehydrated tissue on the apex leaves of the male you just showed. Nice looking male for sure.
One thing that would help you plants to keep better hydrated would be changing that air circulation set up a bit – two smaller fans (15cm clip on fans on low setting) would be better than a single larger one, like that Honeywell. Yea, mine’s a Honeywell too and it’s a beast, better suited for a hps-type light/tent.
..and i would say it moves too much air in a tent for led growing = I saw a noticeable improvement in my situation when i changed just a 20cm clip on fanfan to 15cm one. Two 5 watt 15cm clip on fans aren’t a huge investment for you- around 15 euros a piece over here.. I think you should try those instead one Honeywell esp. cause you have low RH%
What size pots are those? What fertilizers are you using?
Pots are 1.8 liter (105x85x220) with Plagron Batmix.
As i am in perpetual 12/12 i use to not fertiliz til the end but i can use organic fertilizer in flo time for the most sativa, I like to use guano if necessary. Now DCs start to be hungry so i gonna give them few guano, a few grams sprinkled on top of the soil before watering.
Thank you for tips GC you are right! My lights were a bit too close, now readjusted since last week. I think to "perfect" simply i would need a little programmable humidifier.
About tiny fans i had some in the past but not solid quality during, i lost a few and finally prefered to get back a new good reliable Honeywell that lasts for 10y!

Cider damn spell check lol .out of Three plants I had Two cider phenos and one sweet pear ,no males. x18 is x18 except TRSC’s is apparently better, no gemination or vigor problems
Thanks for report Old Piney!
I think that apple and/or pear phenos are not really the best version of X18s, usually only physical with boring high, from my little experience I found that the berries and orangey bubblegum ones are more interesting, i mean more mellow and head high with bettter spiritual enjoy imho.

This smells exactly as you described. It's an F1 hybrid X18 x Kali China, but this pheno is X18 in all aspects same as her dad.
I remember Reserva X18 hashy sweet apple phenos being ok smoke- stoned for sure but not boring.
It was the watery, bland sour apple/root vegetable pheno i found in Tom Hill’s X18 that was really boring effect – mentally very flat, mongy. Can’t remember any of my RES X18 being that shitty but some of them weren’t too great either. But i’m not a huge X18 fan in general.
I think the crappiest smoking RES X18s i had were more earthy/mouldy types.
