Have you been taking out leaves by the bucket load too?
I have ran them twice - 1st time tried not topping and let go too long (big mistake), 2nd time topped once.
This is three of them monsters under a 420 in a 3x4
Yield that round was around 6 3/4 oz between the three - beautiful smell and flavor, just don't expect rock hard nugs

I haven't really taken any leaves off of her I don't think, only the ones that were coming off anyway. Usually I only take the leaves off when they yellow....when they're ready they either fall off on their own or a light tug takes it off. The cup girl has been dropping some fan leaves and I had to cut a few heavily shaded branches from the Grinspoon....that and I haven't cleaned the tent in a while

What all are you running along side your 200 inda-gro?
The 660's on the pontoon did seem to noticeably increase bud density

I've got a 2700K CXA3590 at 1.05A in there too, uses about 90W I think.

Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well!
I've had to use all my tricks on the Dr. Grinspoon: topping, bending, super cropping, but she is still rapidly taking over Lots of branches and bud sites on her! Four of the six tops on the cup girl are hooked together with wires to keep them standing up straight due to some major bud flop. The C99 continues to fatten up and is getting closer and closer. Here's a frost shot on the C99:
Here's a shot of the whole garden. You can sort of see how far around the cup girl the Dr. is reaching:
I moved the 3590 to the other side of the tent, so there's some ghetto look to it due to wires hanging....I didn't want to cut the connector off of the fan, haha.

Looking proper in there bro. Have the same complaints about the mflb. Even bought the adapter for it and after a while it wouldn't make a connection. Was Suu upper pissed cuz all in with the adapter it was like 259 bux. Went and bought a davinci ascent after. Woooooo man talk about amazing. Temp control all glass vapor stack. Can set it to start out at one temp and after a couple mins it bumps it to another temp up to 3 times total. Can't recommend it enough. Easy to clean and looks beautiful and gives massive rips. If your looking for a new vape can't recommend the ascent enough.

Thanks man, I appreciate you stopping by and the compliment
I'll look into the davinci! I want to move away from smoking so much, though I feel like the cigars I smoke are probably a lot worse, lol. A few years ago I pulled a John Candy (the movie "Uncle Buck") and quit smoking cigarettes but eventually started smoking cigars...oops.

Now that you've had that inda-gro 200 running for a while, how are you liking it vs your previous lighting setup?

Ah, I couldn't help myself and I put my other 3000K 3070 in the veg tent to up the juice. Technically, it's just enough power to just turn it into another flowering tent (120W on a 2x2)......................I should be slapped.
I got an email update on the Grasshopper vaporizer They expect to be shipping around end of May/beginning of June!! I'm excited, and I almost hope they ship it late so I can get a free battery, hah.

Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well! I decided to get a pic of the veg tent, since it has been a while since I've showed it to you all. The Bodhi Tree of Live is doing good. I topped her a couple days ago, will top two to three more times before she goes into the flower tent. It still hasn't shown sex, but I'm going to just call it a "her" for some good luck. I've got some spinach in there and a miniature rose as well The rose is a relatively new addition, so she's not quite up to speed yet.
The C99 is getting closer and closer:
And here's a full view of the garden The Dr. Grinspoon is really a huge plant now and still getting bigger...lots and lots of bud sites. The Ghost Train Haze #1 on the front left is a very tall plant, so I've been doing some crazy bending to keep her under control 
I ended up moving the 3590 again to the corner above the rose bush because the Ghost Train was getting a little closer than I wanted her.

Hey Mc. This may not be the place for it but I trust your judgement on the topic.
Being I'm about to dip into organics I am concerned about watering. So far on my tomatoes it has been a back and forth battle. Then found out they were root bound so it's hard to separate which signs were from which problem.
I know hyroot has said before there is no straight answer as it all varies on pots, age, medium, etc. But I've also read to "read the plants" just like hydro with water levels.
So i think I have it backwards. Do the leaves droop when they are thirsty or when they have been Overwatered? For some reason I thought they drooped and then prayed after the watering. Are their any other signs the plant will give you in either direction. I do the soil feel and pick the containers up.
Down the road I'm cheating from the get go and using blumats in flower. My big concern is the delicate stage of seedlings in solo cups and vegging em up.
@hyroot, @PSUAGRO.
Btw, seems like YOU are sure as shit doing something right so I figured I'd ask the masta! Especially in those clay pots, wtf?!

Can get a cheap moisture probe from hd/lowes if your really concerned & finger test works too............don't overthink it though. Reading leaf droop isn't accurate and the mix will be too dry for LOS @ that point.
tomatoes can be a bitch to grow , hybrids are pretty hardy and take abuse better...............hans failed his first two times growing them with his led panels! and he was a dutch mj breeder for decades.....lol. Make sure you have some calcium in your mix to prevent bud rot/drop....
Actually clay pots are great for container gardening...........it's just the price/weight that's a con.

But the leaves DO droop when too dry? That's what I had in my head but then when I would water I just furthered the problems. And goin by hydro the leaves dropped with a lack of O2, too high of water levels. So I've been very torn lately. Don't wanna screw some good genetics, tomatoes I can brush off..but not the ganj.

Yeah droop can appear for multiple reasons===== just after watering/overwatering/underwatering/root issues/toxicity/etc. not accurate

Haha, @Scotch089 ...thanks a lot man, but I'm far from the masta, haha.... I appreciate it though
I agree with everything @PSUAGRO. has said ( unsuccessfully tried to delete that period waaaay too many times before I realized it was part of his name). You can get drooping from overwatering, underwatering, heat, etc.
I use the finger test a lot on the non-blumat pots. Basically, I concentrate on not too much/not too little water as equally important. I try not to drown the roots, which is easy because I have small pots and they can't really hold much anyway. Furthermore, the clay is porous which helps air things out. If too much water comes out of the bottom, I empty the saucer instead of letting the pot sit in the standing water. Then, I basically use the finger test often (I just kind of press down on the soil and see if it is spongy and moist or dry...it turns into the finger test if the top layer of soil is dry, lol). I don't let the soil ever get "dry," if I can help it.
Stressing the plant slows growth and ultimately affects the yield, so it's best to avoid both forms of water stress if you can, imho. It seems to work for me...I try to give the plants a stress-free life all around, which is why I top them when the growth is so small...the plant barely notices. It's not really noticeable when you can veg out the mistakes, but you can see it in 12/12 from seed for sure.
