Almost 2 weeks since the flip, and things are almost done stretching. Canopy is looking a little better, and flower sites are starting to set. Kinda wished I would have gone with all Dosi, that would have been a jungle canopy.. maybe next time. The environment this run is pretty dialed in. I’m maintaining 80/60rh at lights on, and by the time midnight (lights out) comes around, I’m at 85/65rh following VPD as close as possible. 1F31120F-EC57-41FA-AF77-5A6C897571CE.jpeg6EEA532D-C0D5-4671-9C27-448E41FBFC27.jpeg

Thanks man!. it is what it is for this round. I got 1 pheno of Lemon Cane (6 cuts) in the mother tent, and 8 Dosi. I'll make the next run from those mothers in late Feb/early March. Hopefully it will look and produce with some uniformity. I hate those short squatty BitterSweet Haze.... scrapping that strain for sure.

Looking good Bandit! What controls all those lights?

Thats something I forgot to show in the video. The lights are wired to a mechanical contact box to a digital timer. My electrician recommended mechanical over magnetic contacts to avoid future flickering of the lights due to wear. It was about a $1200 upgrade, and it makes this big industrial “boom” when it kicks on or off… scare’s the shit out of me sometimes.731FCCF9-BA63-4FC7-9824-BE593B6C2F03.jpeg4E8FDD54-5D34-4889-A70C-E90083BF5CB7.jpeg

Update: 1/10 Flipped the lights on the 22nd of Dec. Everything is starting to flower out nicely. Temps are..lights on: 80 degrees/60RH and by the end of the light cycle, im at 85 degrees/65RH. Things are going ok... still a little pissed about some of these phenos, but I gotta finish them, or toss them. I guess you know what Im going to do. I don't want to waste light or real estate, so stay they will.
I know some of you don't get the opportunity to seed out 3,4 or 5 different strains with 10, 20 or 30 seeds from each strain, but here's a bit of insight on phenos... Dosi Whoa! is our flagship strain, and I've cloned her for 2 1/2 years now. The 2 new strains were seeded out, and cloned for inventory. You can clearly see that thier cuttings ARE exact copies of thier mothers. I've documented all of the phenos on the lables to see if I want to run a particular pheno again, or not. This run, im defiantly wasting time and energy on these 2 new strains. Kinda something you have to go through to figure out which phenos will make the grade for the next run. But like I talk about below, sometimes if you're only running 3 or 5 seeds of a strain, and you can't figure out what's going on with it... it may just be bad genetics. ..and nothing you can do will fix that. Just a bad seed.

Interesting. Why do you say the dehuyes would be more efficient swapped? I think the only reason I set them that way was because it fit best for the continuous drain to the sink. On the hose, those shrinking ones work great for saving space. We do use fresh ones ever other grow, and as you can see in the pic, I have set up a Y valve to take a lot of pressure off of the hose. The left side goes to a recirculating hose to the tank to keep things stirred up, and the right side goes to the hose. We can manipulate pressure to either side. And thanks man!, we’ve worked hard to make this a good workable space. View attachment 4463856

Those little harbor freight pumps work like a champ for the money. I bought one for a shallow well to run my RV at another place away from home. It worked very well for this and bet it serves you well
