Well, well, well... Unfortunately had to pull the plug early due to the landlord wanting to show the place. Instead of being weird and not letting them look inside my closet I just decided to pull everything after all and not worry about it. It was a photo finish to the end as well. My landlord was 10 minutes late and that ended up being enough for me to rip down everything and make it presentable. I hated having to do it but I couldn't be too worried about it. I wasn't as into it this round as much either. It was a shit show as far as all the different genetics and when flower start dates were. I've got some nice seeds that I'm really looking forward to popping next round, whenever that may be. I'll try to salvage and trim up whatever buds were ready or nearly ready but otherwise I'm going to try my hand at making some dry ice hash. I had a triple diesel and headband that are ready and some master kush that is probably ready. Everything else I'll have to see about.

Please forgive the pictures as I didn't spend time to pull dead fans or anything so they look pretty scraggly.

What's up disco? Almost didn't notice this question on my old thread. I have always had ZEROproblems with excess humidity. I have since moved to a different area from this grow but this area was very high elevation and extremely dry, especially during the winter months. About 95% of the wood I used from this project was all scrap wood too. I wasn't too anal about cleaning it off aside from brushing off extra dirt and using the best wood out of the pile and throwing out any rotten stuff. I never had any issues with heat this run either as again I was at very high elevation in the winter months. I always run my lights at night to use the colder temps to my advantage, as far as I know this is pretty common practice. The vertical setup really is amazing at how well you can pull heat away from a bare bulb. I hand watered every plant and they all sat within their own plant saucer/drip tray. I didn't care if there was a little bit of water standing in there after the fact either as it dried up extremely quickly with the low humidity. You learn how much to water too after several waterings.

If anybody was interested in this diary and followed along I've since started a new one. New house, new setup, new genetics, new outlook. I would appreciate it if anybody can pop their head in there and drop some knowledge on me. Thanks guys, :yes:
