glad it went well!

i had a thought... since you arent at a shortage for space or lights but are at a shortage for hydro equipment... you could run a bit of an experiment if you were so inclined... and settle (at least for yourself) the age old debate of which is better: soil or hydro.

next crop, hopefully from "name" brand seeds... grab a bag of soilmix stuff and a 3 gallon pot or so and run one in dirt as you run the rest in your hydro rig. sprout the seed in a small rockwool cube just like you would for the hydro and when it is ready, just pop it in the dirt, cube and all. get a simple set of nute mixes for it, nothing too elaborate and just get a feel and see which works better... at least for you. you do that before you get all gung ho on the new room and you will know which way you want to go.

just my thoughts, and easy enough for me to say since it aint my grow op ;)

most of us grow the way we do for the same reason you are using hydro... it is what we had and what we were taught on... makes for bias.

Ok I think the remaing 4 plants are female! The top three nodes have lil white V shaped hairs coming out where the nuggets where on the other. Ive tried to take pics but still the shaky hands bamboozle me! Ill post a few here maybe someone can see something.... Im pretty sure they are female but sure yet...
Also the heat is so out of control... my high is fucking 100 daily.. This cant be Im assuming.. so I am taking my exhaust and hanging it directly above my lights and plants... kinda nervous I gotta make sure that heavy fucker is secure... but its all I can think to help at this point... for the next grow Ill be buying this 11,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner
way expensive but over time it will pay for itself...
ok pic time now while Im waiting on my help to hang this monster..
