First harvest success. Second run progressing nicely

Actual room is 9x12

This is my reading with the tent open. Today is watering day

With tent open thats a bit high. Dtw coco in fabirc pots can breathe and will always have good root pressure. So I can handle higher humidity. Soil can be poor level in oxygen rifjt after watering Id think. For example if youre in deep water cultur and your pump dies or doesnt add enough oxygen, the root pressure can increase and gutate in buds.

Thats not super factual just what I gather and asked AI which can sometimes be very accurate. I was putting bags around my pots for pests but it said it will increase root pressure and gutate and it was. So I removed them. It could also explain why my leafs had some issues on some of them at the time mixed with hot and dry environment.

But yea, a 3x3 will do great for absorbing that plants breath and rh and temps should be better. My 3x3 is the easiest to grow in heres a pic. Ive grown in it this my 4th run in it. Idk how dehueys do connected to tent but I see my best results doing traditional way, lung room. I just condition the room to what I want inside of tents.

I think its great to heat up a tent tho. And yea, your room is literally the same size as mine. Be prepared for heat issues unless your home ac is a monster. Ours sucks and cant get are northern home to 75F in summer it gets above that. Also just make note of my advice because of our similar setup, incase you start to upsize little by little.

I dont doubt you can speak for your self and say you wont upsize, upgrade, get deeper into this. But it happens to people often, its addicting and as soon as you become a heavy user if not already, some upsizing may naturally be wanted later. Even if I only smoked and not do dabs only, Id need to grow a good amount still.

Also because this is addicting to grow and you might actually be interested in some care giving. I am willing to to some degree. Looks like you got a window in there so yea try a portable ac if heat becomes an issue. My flower room is the most comfortable place to be in the home ground floor when its 90F out.

I started off saying the same thing lol. Unless you got genetics that yield over a pound in that tent its just not enough for a lot of people. I thought my first tent would be enough.

i started off with a 2x2x3 tent and was like this will be plenty

So what I’m thinking is 8-12 oz per harvest. I can dry in one tent, clean the grow tent, start next batch from seed, 6 weeks veg, whatever flower is for particular strain, give away 2-3 oz and then a new harvest before i run out of last harvest. Running 2 tents is kind of expensive but i have solar panels so electricity bills not even $200/month with 2 tents and keeping house 68F in 100F temps.

Also have 1 going outside if nothing goes wrong should give me very close to a pound if not more.

My bill is giving us anxiety lol. Good thing its just for summer. So 1 tent to grow, 1 to dry and 1 to start the next? How much do you consume in 5-6 months? Perpetuating can almost double your yield in same amount of time but see.. Getting deeper into this lol. Youd want to find a mother to clone so you can repeat your results.

Growing from seed is a gamble you could lose a whole grow to seeds from herming. Also yield will vary, but 8oz plants are pretty high yield already and grew several strains that didnt hit that. You could upsize to grow one large run or this small setup will have you continuous.

I have a feeling youre a moderate user and might be beyond the point of “Im just growing once for fun.” A gas generator for power outage will be benifitial. Being home constantly will be in order, most people that step away for so much as a week or 3 come back to dead or moldy plants.

Theres moving away from buying from store, then staying away from the store which will take a lot of planning. Lots of care and budgeting but its do able. I just have no life but finally somewhat do now so I have a reason to be home all the time. Never leave town.

I have an integrated natural gas generator also lol. My first grow pulled 7 1/2 oz with 2 plants in a 2x4. That was not knowing what i was doing and threw away probably at least 1/2 oz larf. This one scrog may not be right bit it is going to produce if i dont blow it at the end.

Pulled my first harvest too early cuz trichomes look different under a grow light than they do on the table.

Trichomes looked cloudy under the light but after trimming they were clear. Rendering my white widow (3 1/2 oz) essentially worthless. Probably needed 2 more weeks.

The mimosa came out probably bargain shelf quality, definitely worked but felt like something was missing from the buzz.

Also one of my best friends ive known for 20+ years bought a house 2 blocks away. If I leave town they can water if necessary lol.

Tried to set up a drip system but clogged after like 2nd use. So last 2 weeks been top watering with a can. The autopots dont seem to work after a certain point either. They stop wicking.

yeah the wicks get clogged with nutes, you either gotta switch them or clean them i believe
