Thanks for everyone's participation. I have been made aware my grow space and testing is confusing. I will attempt to do a better job at documentation.
First, there are 6 active tents. They are
1.) Germination / Cloning
2.) Pre-veg (2x4 that currently is not in use)
3.) Veg Tent 4x8
4.) Flower Tent #1 - 4x8 with HID lighting
5.) Flower Tent #2 - 4x8 with LED lighting
6.) Mom (or dad) tent - 4x4
Tents 3 - 6 are all the fallponics system you have seen in video.
Cycle A
Start seeds in #1
Move seedings to #3 (approx 1 month)
Move vegged plants from #3 to #4 to flower
Flower out plants and harvest (approx 2 months)
Cycle B
Start second batch of seeds in #1
When #3 empty, move seedlings to #3 to veg
Move vegged plants from #3 to #5 to flower
Flower out plants and harvest (2 months)
So the cycle is to have plants veg for a month in #3 then immediately start a new batch. Vegged plants then move to alternating Flower tents. There is a 1:2 ratio of Veg to Flower, because in general there are 1 month of Veg and 2 months of Flower. So I am planting and harvesting every month.
Mom Tent
Veg Tent
Flower Tent 1 - HID
Flower tent 2 - LED
So specifically where we are in the cycle right now is HID Flower Tent has 6 plants well into flowering. This is the one where I just installed the UVB fixtures to test out the benefits of UVB. This test is a side quest, and has nothing to do with the production of THCV as far as I know.
This tent has maybe 4 or 6 weeks left before harvest.
This tent is where the THC Victory plants will go after harvest.
Here is where the guesswork comes in, I want to germinate the THC Victory seeds 5 weeks before the harvest of this tent. We are very close to that now.
On the cycle for the LED tent, that system just started back up with vegged Durban Poison, 2x Jack the Ripper, Afghan, and 2x Bubba Kush.
In this tent we are testing UVA and Far Red, as well as getting some seeds out of this Fem Durban Poison plant.
@Skeptik sent me all the stuff I need and is helping me along with this, so if you want to see how to reverse a female, we are going to do that live.
Additionally I am working with
@Aqua Man to maximize biologic and nutrient inputs to all tents. This is ongoing, and not a test per say because there is no control, however I will be able to subjectively report results.
The flower tents have the following controls:
AC
Dehumidifier
Humidifier
Res Temp
PH
EC
CO2
The Mom tent is currently vacant. It only holds 4 plants, so cloning all 6 THC Victory plants will be a slight challenge, although I'll make it work.
Does this clear it up any?
I will be germinating Tvic seeds most likely this weekend, vegging for a month, then moving them to the HID Flower tent when it harvests in 4 - 6 weeks.
Any testing plan for Tvic needs to be based on the HID tent.
