I wanted to give special recognition to Aqua Man......... he was the 1st person to recognize the potential for the room and the high yield estimates. I called him "crazy", as he likes to point out. I'm very happy to say you nailed it and thanks for the motivation to prove you right. You da' man! Tonight I am appreciating your input, actually everyone's. I knew enough to know that I didn't have a clue about LED's. I just thought they ran cooler, and heat would be less of an issue. That's the only reason I decided to make the change- less heat in the summer. I would have made numerous mistakes growing this crop without some sound advice offered in the thread.

And sure enough, instead of running cooler, I'm running hotter. Go figure. Funny how things turn out sometimes. I actually thought I was going to get less weight, but better quality and I was willing to accept that. Instead, I got insane weight along with better quality. A couple of times I've talked about how much I missed the HPS lights........ well, this week, I'm totally onboard with these lights now. No if, and's or buts.........I've moved on!

One thing that needs to be addressed is netting to hold up buds as they get heavier......I got lucky this time and found a strain that's known for it's sturdy branches. I probably won't need it for the Sweet Zombie either. But it's coming.......
Appreciate the kind words. I was just razing ya for some fun so I hope it came off that way and not pompous. I knew a grower of your capability and experience would kill it under a quality LED. Its not easy to leap into a complete unknown and put it out there for everyone to see and often we are our own biggest critics. But you absolutely fucking KILLLED it man and let's be honest the light helps but your growing abilities are the reason why you could make those numbers.

As a millwright by trade im a big believer in the right tool for the job and in the right hands can make a job look effortless. This is a perfect example.

11 plants now hanging for a week or so......... and 11 are still in the room. 3 of those are just about done, the last 8 will need some additional help finishing up so I'll start cutting the lights off at 9PM (so they'll be on 10 on/14 off til next Thursday).

It's actually a big square room with the center room holding the HVAC, water heater, chlorinator, water softener, some storage, etc. So there is another side to the room to get by........... the entire basement space is over 1400 sq. ft. Think of it like a square donut with a room in the center.

Nice but still would love to see someone smoke there way through that... maybe put a few lazers about and do as @MIMedGrower suggested lol.... or a few of your gummies as prerequisite. Toss some MPK in the air to make your way through them. Haha ok I'm gonna go put my tinfoil hat back on

More fun to traverse through on cables and rollers.

Cant touch the sticky buds.

As I'm looking at your harvest, I'm wondering about creative uses. I bought my wife a book on cannabis spa recipes for creams and such (there are also more traditional food recipes etc). Any experience?

None........ I do use a commercial hemp lotion as a moisturizer but passed that, no ideas.
If your looking for someone to roll around in those buds and report back let me know.

Seriously though I'm kinda surprised there are no colognes or perfumes yet. I know skunk #1 may not sound like something you wanna spray on yourself then head to the bar but no joke I smell a nice cured bud and its instantly poking my head around like oh my God that smells so good.

Even just from a gimmick marketing prospective how has this not happened?

Now I'm wondering if I should delete this post and get to work lol.

I like making tea or chai out of fresh flowers if I have extra.

We cure all close bud trim in seperate jars along with the buds and then make infused coconut oil for edibles with multiple strains from different jars.

The cured trim oil is delicious in the edibles. And the multi strain effects are complex and potent.
