Beautiful Dnice!

I'll be harvesting my first grow with some "real" genetics any day now as well. The smells are absolutely amazing compared to my previous bagseed grows!

Could you post a few pics under natural light? Like not purple light... lol

Yeah good for you :) i'm reaching the end of week one with my second grow and the a/c is definitely a necessity. My first grow was hot like yours, until the a/c was there now I got 76 day 72 night. During the day I keep my led's close for a surface temp of around 80-81 (I use co2 so this higher temp is good for me) and the plants will grow into the lights more. Hopefully after stretch we will see a surface temp of 85+ when my co2 and nute schedule has peaked. :) anyway the reason I'm writing this is I have developed a multi tent environment system with dehum and a/c in a SEALED co2 enriched loop. I got it all going through a "environment box" so ill pm you when I got a couple pics up on my thread. I think you and I may be birds of a feather seems you did your research, and I might be able to inspire you to take your second run up a notch as far as environment is concerned. :) your buds look great but they could probably be weightier yeah? I've found cool'er' temps help keep buds tight and compact, my first grow was a bit airy :p

Anyway I'll get at you. I'm sure you'll appreciate the 'blueprint' and I'm sure you'll take what you will from it. :)

Anyway dnice

Yea definitely not max yield I could have got more with less... was running co2 but because i was using yeast method and the colder air at the bottom of temp was causing the co2 not to bubble like before my temps stay around 80's to mid 70's... and ac is at mid with max ac the bottom of my tent was hitting the 50's with low 70's between light and canopy... my next run will be with less plants but overall not airy at all i rotate alot between the cfl and led coverage out of the four plants i cut early they all were over a ounce dried (almost 2 weeks in jars) i only was aiming for a lb. And i was a noob so i planted more incase of loss but really didnt lose to many... even my mutated ladies put out pretty well:biggrin:
My next grow will be 1 tent 2 led panels (xte300) but debating if i should grab 2 more ds xte 300 and run 2 tents 12 plants 2 panels each... excellent experience the smoke has been pretty good so far and that was early pickings so hopefully the wait pays off... from the four plants chopped premature i got alittle over 4 ounces so am predicting 1 1/2 lbs for this harvest 22 plants strains:
Dutch passion blueberry.blackberry.frisian dew
Sweet seeds dark devil. Red poison
Dr underground melon gum
Short seeds pink grapefruit
Paradise seeds vertigo
Paradise seeds auto acid
Big heads freeze berry

I have three 240w panels in each 4x4, I'll definitely take some shots of my system today.

Two tents is probably the best bang for buck concerning a/c and dehum (I mean the smaller entry level consumer products work well at this volume, no need for industrial strength.) although my dehum is a bit underpowered, it holds its own mostly :) I'd recommend only one tent max if using a 35pt/day dehum.

Anyway, later!
