Its more than likely a 'fast' strain......not necessarily an auto, but a really quick to flower photoperiod. I would say go ahead and flip to 12/12 at this point

It is supposed to flower in 7 weeks. My flower room is currently occupied. Maybe I can slip it in early.

I see what you're saying.....perhaps just change the timer and leave them in the same room. Start up a few more seeds

I've got another light coming. I can use my drying tent as a temp space. That'll give me room to grow a bit.

Thanks. That's a lot more than any of the others have shown for me. I'm not treating it differently. Just manifolded it.

Today's Pic of the Skywalker flowering. I'm having to pull the branches apart with the wires once or twice a week, in addition to some pruning. So far I think it's going nicely!

Damn! Today I'm grateful for advanced planning and technology!
Power is out for a while. Electric company says for 3 or 4 more hours.
After starting the garden, I figured a power outage could waste months of effort, so I got a battery backup on my room. Then, I figured more is better, so I got a bigger battery backup, and moved the smaller one to my network and TV.
My batteries have enough juice to last, though, as the power just came back up they don't need to. I'm turning the light back up to 6!

Ok. After yesterday's victory over electricity, I awoke to my lovely lady laying on her side. I've righted her and she seems ok. I think I'm going to pull off some of the lower, more buried branches and see if I can help out her balance issues.
I've, unfortunately, put the next 2 in the 1 gallon pots, so I'll be extra careful next grow and maybe secure them a little better. I've got the 2 gallon pots now, so after this I'll use those.

I have also done this.
I have a 2 car battery backup running to a 12V PSW inverter.
basically gives me 10 hours at full flower power or more in veg.
It also connects to any car and can power the inverter if you can get withing 6 feet of the house. Till the gas runs out.
Basically a 25 amp service

We were down for almost an hour and I dimmed the lights some to make sure we'd make it - power company said 4 hours. Never lost the rooms or internet or television.

I pulled some branches and put them in the drying tent. I'll dry and start a cure on them, smoking it as testers and to extend my cure on the actual harvest.
This could be up to an ounce. Container is about 9x14 inches.

I added a 2 point kick stand to ensure it stays upright.

Thats because its flowering, showing preflowers would be a few white pistils here and there.

So several of my top leaf sets are tacoing. I've turned the lights down from 6 to 3 and it's not going away. At this point, I think the fall must have done this...

I've added some bungee cords to spread a couple branches out and stabilize the balance. I used a couple going branch to branch to adjust the spacing. It's looking nice.

Tried a bit of the early harvest last evening. Needs some cure, for sure. It tasted ok. Did the job. Should be nice once I've got the rest done up right.
