It was just the way my closet was set up...
upstairs & absolutely no ventilation other than a little fan in the doorway.
It was a humidity death trap, but that's why I moved it down stairs & invested in the tent.

I jimmy rigged one of the tent's vent pouches to my AC unit on the ceiling, so the tent is getting cold-dry air, then it filters out through the window.

Sweet! That cold air will bring out more purple for ya. Though I find warmer temps bring out more terpenes. Gotta ride the fine line . . .

I'd call it a Lino Rigged AC system... Pics Pls... I'm quite proud of my Lino AC Ventilation invention.

Your tent will not have PM now and mites will struggle at 72` on shiny leaf plants. Humidity and temps will be ideal.

So far, so good...
No mas PM for these ladies, just a little burnt on some fanners due to mildew treatment.
Washed the treatment off & flushed them this morning (big lady got a shower inside cause too grande for sliding glass door).
Fingers crossed all goes well from here! :party1:

sorry, I should have been there . The plants will pull out of the shock. I will put 7 more plants into bud for you today, ecd - firepower x firepower crosses into bud for you today.

Make sure your veg to bud switches are flipped on the LEDs.

IF the plants will not produce like we think should or any other problems break out on these plants we'll chop em and replace, give it 10 days before we decide what to do with them, but I confident that they'll produce excellent smoke if the pathogens are gone.

mandy jane I see you have tied plants to canes. correct me but are you just using one loop straight to cane? I prefer a figuire of eight loop two loops that allow for a couple of mm play so stem of branch is not suffocated and can move but not very far. maybe you've give a little slack I cant tell by photos. you can flirt with more cold temps as long as your roots don't get too cold maybe elevate pots a little? if your already doing this I'm sorry, lazy sunday will read through your thread again. when not in lazy mood

Most of these are staked with a single loop.. I tend to give them some wiggle room by making the loop slightly larger than the stem; but I might've over done some of them.
Unfortunately can't evelate much (tents too short) but I did just put them in little red buckets, so they've been raised slightly.

My tent's environment has stayed pretty steady, don't think I'll need a space heater till the winter (might throw tent into the garage for more heighht)
I personally love the GSC, especially this strain as it's a purple dominant; so the buds come out smelling & tasting just like blackberries. :ninja:
@lino isnt a fan because of how fruity it is; but if that's you enjoy fruitier bud, it's to die for.

Most people don't seem to be huge on the purples, but if you cure them long enough; they're some of the best buds I've smoked.

You're a good man, Dan... solid strain/genetics.

Probably a good idea, try it before you buy it... I'm unfamiliar with the Royal Purple Kush; I haven't grown or smoked that strain.
Only one way to find out if it's good though, right? :party1:
