Jarred the air-dry portions of the first three moms yesterday (9 days)...twisted a trainwreck, no noticeable diff on potency vs freeze-dry. Air-dry noticeably harsher, greener....
Will try the other two in the next day or two...compare vs freeze-dry when both de-/re-hydrate to boveda level. And take weights.

Current Lights....
6x96
8x288
The 96s are definitely less efficient, but having the capability to individually adjust intensity over each plant would make the wattage go up for the 288s, since plant height diffs now limit intensity for shorter plants.
At some point i’m gonna rebuild my 288 fixtures, to at least add separate drivers/dimmers for each pair of 288s, maybe 4 separate fixtures for max flexibility.
I’ll test some additional reds this week, then even out the plant heights, and readjust lights for more even canopy.
Turned UVs back on today, after turning them off after defol, to reduce stress on juvenile leaves. Still at same intensity, still at 15min/hr spread over 6 hrs or 1.5 hrs total.
After these big defols, none of the remaining leaves have been acclimated to uv, so gotta start at beginning each time, to minimize damage.
The colas should be dripping by harvest, w the uvb...i made some nice-sized finger hash balls when trimming the moms (no uvb), any incremental amount the uvb adds will make these colas ridiculously sick!
