Figured I will give this a shot. I think this is even my first post. :peacock::peacock::peacock:.

I have a sealed climate controlled room with the following components:
-18k btu mini split 18 SEER
-CAP GEN2 co2 generator
-Titan CHHC4 controller runs the Co2 and humidity
- box store dehumidifier 50pints/day
-9x12 insulated sealed environment


Plants:
4 Green Cracks transplanted to 3 gallon smart pots
Promix bx media with 30% perlite added (handmade HP basically)

I gave two plants bushmaster 1ml/gal during week 1.
The other two were not treated.

All plants were sprayed with floramite during week 1. This is a preventative measure. No mites were observed on the plants.



I started 12/12 with the GCs under 1000w Hortilux HPS.
It has been about a week and I took the 1000w down.
I added a 600w HTG HPS bulb vertical and surrounded it by the GCs.

We will see what happens.



Also: There are 4 White russians under a 600w HPS adjust-a-wing. This is a horizontal reflector that is very effective. These plants are adjacent to the vertical bulb GC plants.

Our patients love GC. There no heat issues with the 1000w. I just want to hang more bulbs of less wattage. I'm trying to read more vertical threads.

Going for a first time Vert and it's going to be GC most probably>

Any advice, especially interested in stages (how long is vegetation)
and how often and which leaves to remove(this is hard to find)
