Yes it is but these are only 6 weeks old from seed.The last batch took almost 7 months to finish.I'm a big fan of DIY. looks good to me. And if it works even better :) I'm not smart enuff to leave things alone after getting my diy up & running ,usually the more tweaks the worse off I am lol.
Looking good, quite a bit less jungle than your last go round.

I won't get near the yield but done in half the time is great.
I had expected to have 5 or 6 fem plants and I started 20 seeds of unknown sex thinking half or more would be male ( my last try at unsexed I got 2 fems from 7 plants ) ( bad luck )
I wanted to be sure of at least 5. Any ways 20 seeds 18 popped like bean sprouts in 2 days.....okay so I may have 8-9 plants after sexing. Nope out of 18 only 3 were male. 15 now fems then a buddy comes over with a pot of 4 he didn't have room for so now I have them as well but one ended up male. Okay a few more than I planned for but I've made room and they all seem happy.
I hope this closet veg box works but without a small dehumidifier for it I'll only be able to use it for a limited amount of time because at 95-100% H we get here June-Aug indoor growing is tough without one. I have one for my flower room space but even then I can't flower through June-Aug. I can still veg but that's why I get 7 month old plants....bad timing and lethargy in the fall.
I don't mind vegging for months & months if I have a good supply already , bigger the better for me, at 3 months after all the topping I do to keep them short I get nice big bushes but then I'm 5 1/2 - 6 months at that point months in before I harvest.The Reg seed curse happens from time to time it seems, trying to grow some str8 CBD for my MIL to try, first 7 seeds were males out of a 10 pack. Finally got a Fem, should have taken some cuts...oh well. I don't start a whole bunch at a time because I just don't have the room but also don't want them vegging forever either. Besides that I am always changing my mind on what to grow so a whole bunch of one thing doesn't do it for me.
The only place for my Flower tent is upstairs in this 100 yr old house so in Summer I'm going to have to scale back, at least from late June thru mid Sept. Too hot, too humid = way to much worry & work. Just can't justify the cost to run air conditioning, but every year is different so who knows.
My Lesbian Gorilla twins had some babies aren't the little ones cute?Jan 28th update, My 2 Gorilla are growing well at least a month - 6 weeks more before I'll flip them. I hope to pull a bunch of clones of them for this years run.
The Auto's are growing great. I've not seen plants stretch like these little things did. I've had to bend over the tops to keep them under my reflector. I'm not sure how auto's are supposed to respond to this abuse but I guess we'll see. So far so good.
I've had low ph readings and it is the ProMix Mycrrohizae that is responsible for that. 9Or my inattention to a new mix ). I've mostly used a cheap mix call Green world VPW 30 and with it my ph stays solid around 6.5 without any additives. I've been getting ph readings around 5.5 so I added some Dolomite to help lift my ph to no avail.
I did a slurry test on a virgin cup of PM Mycro and I get a 6.00. That explains the low ph readings. I'll have to adjust my ph on all my liquids and never buy that crap again. There was a run on potting mixes this year and my regular mix was sold out. I'll buy early this year.
I built an exhaust fan out of an old microwave fan...it took a little fiddling with it to seal it up but it runs well now and it does the job.

My leaf issues
My flower room
Agree, looks like a fungal blight or something else, doesnt really look like calcium spotting.This doesn't look like calcium like the pic you copied. Not sure what it is. Have you scoped for bugs? Mold/ mildew? Maybe do a help thread see if someone recognizes.

No bugs Its only on a few lower leaves that may have been affected by low ph but to me it looked like calcium... I had a couple with much more on it ...not the tips but the spots through out.This doesn't look like calcium like the pic you copied. Not sure what it is. Have you scoped for bugs? Mold/ mildew?

It all looks like the same thing to me... Bad eyes I guessim concerned with the small dotting in clusters. Wait i should have blown up a pic...

I've been looking at fungi problems and my room doesn't fit the bill. 52-55% 80f lights on 68f off, 2 large osculating fans 24/7 24hr fresh filtered air input. There was low ph & low Humidity for a few days before I started a humidifier...Old humidifier? I clean it regularly with CLR but it does get green inside ...Agree, looks like a fungal blight or something else, doesnt really look like calcium spotting.
In the summer I run a fan over the tops of the pots...maybe I should do that now as well. I do thin it out but I guess if there's an air flow issue I should do a bit more....too crowded...again....4-5 only next run but they'll be hopefully 4 Photo's 3 months into veg.i would more suspect potassium but those spots are too random. I agree with @Dirtbag maybe blight or i would look more closely for bugs down there. Not sure how to treat. Maybe need more airflow from fan adjustments and or some leaf picking.
I not thinking so, our house has a return air system and its fed and returns house air. its set at 50%. The room is well ventilated. 68f is house night time temp....the room really tops out at 80f with my ballast at 110% now ( old lamp ) (new Hortilux ordered today) with lights on @50% humidity . I cut back a bunch of leaves tonight and there is more damage than I originally thought to more leaves. The environment is not sterile and being in my basement / workshop .... I'm going to blame my humidifier if anything....I was kind of hoping you say ya cal/mag.....easy way out for me. Rather than accepting the fact I have to clean this up, last year spider mites...now?Thats a pretty steep temp drop at lights out, you could be getting dew settling on the leaves in the hr after the lights go off.

Feb 18 I pulled the 2 auto cheese today.Update Ice storm expected today,
Being cheap again I bought a Vaporizer ,new, $3.00 at a second hand store. I've been using a humidifier in my veg room that is impossible to keep clean. There are too many nooks and crannies in unacceptable locations to clean and soaking it in CLR doesn't do it. Why not a vaporizer? If its good for children with breathing problems surely its a good method of putting moisture in the air in my Veg room/ closet.
The only drawback from what I've recently read is noise and the need for regular cleaning. Well noise isn't a problem and cleaning is much easier than with the humidifiers I've used. Issues were no on off switch = 100% humidity in about 15 min so I put it on a timer for 3 min on every 20 min. I also have an exhaust fan I have timed the same way. Perfect ? no but right now the temp is 82f and 65% with lights on. I'll have to check mid way through lights off to see what I get. as soon as I open the door the humidity drops to around 35% in a couple of minutes, hence the need for added humidity.
I have these Auto's growing One or 2 look really weird all airy and puffy and some looking great. The smell off both is incredible and all are fertilized with the same nutes. I don't know what to think. I'm not expecting much from these big airy things but the smoke will tell.
Something I read the other day said airy plants is a trait of southern latitude,Philippine's & Thailand was mentioned. Where hours of daylight is close to 12 -12 1/2 through the year their high humidity and heat in the 90 +.
Well I don't think if that applies to what I've got, I think its more of too much nutes, too little nutes,too high ph or too low ph or at the wrong time or the strain is meant to have X,Y & Z added before the first day of the full moon What ever the Fk it is they have close to another month to go and I'll be smoking the shit anyways.
