No Basement worthy to use here (old stone walls) damp, nasty spiders lol. No real spare room til the 23yr old moves on so it's tent time full time along with my closet and now, here is the latest addition I just put the finishing touches on today. Here's "The Flower Tote" lol or veg or whatever. Cpl of DFG duds in here I am gonna flower out. I kept em alive this long, may as well try to finish em. we'll just keep them small.

Also doing very similar to what you are with new seeds now a days as well. I have had to get better & try different things as my stash is getting older and not so gung ho to pop. Whatever works eh! They popped nice for ya even for lame storage in the light et all.
For sure I'd give that dude all the biz I could. Such endless bullshit over a damn plant...ugh
