The mkp I believe is putting on the swell.
Hitting those high to mid 80s has a little fox tailing happening also.
Looking forward to cooler weather for sure.
Figure I got another week and a half to 2. Going to start flushing this weekend

Turned off the lower light n swapped the top for a mh bulb. Cut an hour out of light time also. Getting hot as hell.
Really hosed myself on yield this go around I'm thinking . No worries though, still cheaper than hitting the stores

I guess my question is... Is it worth all that work defoliating. I'll be honest, for that size plant I just don't see the yield. There can't be anymore than 4oz on that girl. Quality?
That defoliation had to have slowed her down...
I do some myself but nothing like that. Looks wicked though. Frankenstein.
To each his own though.
Interesting to see if anything.

It was all just to see.
I won't defol. This hard again... actually I may but will work towards more main branching.
I am of the mind I pulled a quarter or so off each plant also. I shorted myself big time on yield.
I am the guy that needs to see it. I'm new to indoor gardening n want to screw around some.

I will have dry numbers here in a week or 2.
Nothing record breaking for sure.
I can say though, that all flower sites were fully developed and quite dense. My last round had a good bit more yield... by like double I'm guessing, but there was a lot of larf.
I feel as though my next run with the cinex I should be able to find the sweet spot.
Got some gorrila bubble and a dead head cross hitting the room next n will not be stripping them as I did these girls

Got all 4 gb bx2s and a dh x lbl stuffed in there under the mh.
Don't really want to flip til I get new bulbs. Got 2 runs on the last ones.

These gb have prove a little more finicky than the cinex.
Got new bulbs in and worked up to 100 % .
The gorilla bubbles are the ones I've invested much interest in. I got 2 deadhead crosses in here too though. My # 10 dh is really showing up to the party.
My cinex turns out real frosty. I've noticed that both the dh and gb are already frosty at 15 days. The dh#10 though really stretched out. Also seems to be packing on the flowers a good bit heavier than I've seen.
After this next run it'll be ppks rather than coco hempys . My veg room is converting as we speak. I have 4 gb clones in a recirculating perlite hydro set up waiting for their final home in a 5 gallon ppk. I am noticing improved vigour in the gb clones in hydro and am very excited to see how they react after flip.
My dh in flower has me filled with promise for my next run. Also gave me the seed bug. I'm finding a lot of joy in bringing new genetics into my room and learning them.
I have drawn up a horizontal set up. I believe with ppk, de lighting and scrog I can have me a much more automated system. I will be sticking with this vert set up for a few more runs til then

Really jacked on the #6 gorrila bubble. Hope her clones act like her.
#2 ain't no slouch either. Totally different pheno than the others. But lost all clones
This is #2

On another note.
I got my ppk stuff up a nd running for the little ones, still trying to source my 7 gallon dishes.
Decided to stick with vert for the winter and will be throwing 4 ppk plants around my bulbs til I knock down the wall for horizontal growing.
Transplanted clones to perlite with pulse feed 2 weeks ago. Pulled em last night and they are jam packed. Really looking forward to tinkering with the ppk system

Well, times are changing in my little op. I got a 4 site system up and running in my veg room.
Got me a humidifier, figured out quick that exchanging air fast and keeping humidity up doesn't work. Sealed up my intake and exhaust. Got humidity up to 65% and high 70s temp.
Got a co2 tank and reg. Got it on a timer 15 min on every 2 hours til I can afford a controller.
My Gb 8 that I think is my keeper is giving me fits being a mag hog while the others stay happy, trying to sort that out with foliar.
Got the last of my coco hempys in flower with the deadhead crosses. Once those come down I will be building a ppk system in flower.
Idk, but I'm tossing around the idea of knocking down a wall while I'm at it and stretching my room out to 7 by 11 and going horizontal.
 
Glad to see you incorporating C02 now in your grow, and using a humidifier to raise levels during colder periods. There are formulas for C02 saturation per cubic foot of room space and may want to be sure that the plants are getting what they need. If you surpass the level a bit, then this creates a phenomena where temps can run higher. Having a larger room makes things better, having it totally open is best. The intermittent fans will help displace heat in this larger open space. Another enjoyable part of the grow is focusing on the cure of the plants after they are harvested. They have a half life of six months. So leaving them in the jars for a couple of months gives amazing results in taste, how it burns, and strength. If you practice a bit with the same strain, you will find that your equipment is suited for that particular height plant. Which is the main reason why people use clones to begin with, so they are all the same height for your particular equipment.
