Hey everyone, I'm whippin up a new journal, got some new stuff, mostly things just got a bit larger so I thought a new journal was in order.
Went with a 4 x 4 x 80 Viparspectra tent. This was the 3rd one I ordered, all were different brands. They are all crap in this price range. Got tired of sending them back. Don't need the best tent just a bigger one as the room is dark anyway and I light with green light if I enter. That said a hint of quality would be nice nowadays for a reasonable price.
Two SideKing 250's(240w) LED's plus my old Kingbrite 240w LED for 720w total. Someday I'll maybe spend a few $$$ on lights. Today isn't that day...lol...
AC Infinity T6 w/ Controller 67
I am one of the 5 recent winners of the AC Infinity UIS setup. Not received anything yet as things are on back order. I plan to try and incorporate as much of it in my setup as I currently can. Thank you again @ACINFINITYINC

Last years beauty
I started these five from seed, popped on 8/4 and was hoping to go to flower with all this new gear on or about Labor Day Weekend ish...I made an attempt to raise Calcium levels with some Gypsum I had (from my short lived soil days) @ .5gr/gal as a test. There was no issues and I raised the Ca by 31ppm (using Hydrobuddy). I then decided just as I'm going to flip to use 1gr/gal (62ppm) of Gypsum Powder. That was a bad call at 131ppm total Ca. I burnt the crap out of almost every decent sized fan leaf I had. I still think the gypsum was ok, I just overdid it. You would think after a few years a guy would think it through & quit doin stupid sh*t like that. The Growmore Cal-Mag Foliar is easy enuff to do. Gets us up close & personal lol.
So the last few weeks have been all about recovery and getting them ready to flip again.
I flipped to 12/12 on Mon 9/25 so we're off & running. Working to get a grip/dial in things as we're running about 5* to 8* warmer around 84/85/86*. than my usual 79/80* Wicked dry for this stage. 86* & 49% rh make for vpd numbers that are terrible so I'm struggling with RH levels during lights on. I'm venting inside now for the winter so I will get it better over time as I find what works the best. I need a day & night schedule for the dehuey I suppose, especially to deal with the heavy transpiration the last couple hours of lights on...whew. Too little, too much...always trying to find a sweet spot. The outside weather is so unstable right now with early cold temps, sunny, windy, way windy, then pouring rain on repeat so there ain't no keepin up with that anyway.
The Kingbrite LED driver is wall mounted outside but the two new lights drivers are way too effin hot with drivers inside tent past about 80%. Until I get it mostly right, I'll just turndown the lights a hair until I find the sweet spot for these Sidekings. The Kingbrite at 21" works the best at about 80%.
OK, enuff of the bs, here's the green stuff...

Twenty20 Made of Honor strain last grow was a beauty and I should have saved for this run, it's some fire let me tell ya. Got more seeds, no worries.
In a couple weeks I will be starting a @Dragonsflame grow from regs to fill the tent after this grow. Jeff @ DFG was kind enough to send me some fresh genetics after I ran into some trouble last fall. Thanks again Jeff. Also have a few Celestial Dragon seeds left I'll throw in the mix as well.
As always, I have plenty of other stuff going on with my edibles , tote grows, closet grows, regs, autos....etc.
Here's a few Auto Regs, maybe get a Fem or two?...Green Headband, Sour Lemon, Super 90...I can grow these little goobers here in the closet while still doing photos to get ready for next round...
Oldest kids have asked for some "Loaded" Lemon Pound Cake, going to whip this up this afternoon as a test. If I do make it, it will be from scratch unless I find a killer mix. Plus I'll get the big bucks for made from scratch lol.
These are for my out of state Daughter in law. She doesn't partake in the thc so they're just plain Jane. I'm fixin to send them out today for Sat delivery. My in state DIL can't get enuff of my 30mg/each Caramels.
We'll see how it all goes. One Day at a Time!
