Yay!!! Even better.Sorry guys, I was incorrect. It's 16 weeks of veg and bloom and not 8 in a #10.
In a #10, you feed 8 oz. (half a pound) per feeding, so four pounds gives 8 feedings. But, you feed every two weeks (the calculation I failed to make originally!) so it takes 16 weeks to do the 8 feedings. Sorry for the confusion!
So, this arrived today. I've got it plugged into the main power supply of the tent since it's more advantageous to track the total electricity cost of the grow. Right now, lights are off but the exhaust fan and two circulation fans are still running and it's showing 15.8w which is actually pretty low compared to what I expected with the three fans going.Just ordered this:
It was cheaper than the Kill-a-Watt and had better reviews!
It should be here Saturday and I'll let you know where we end up.
Power meter outside spinning around like Clark Griswolds during Xmas.

When I grow up I want to produce plants like yours!DAY #5 OF 12/12
Not much has changed since the last update. The girls are still healthy & happy and continuing the stretch. I've raised the lights another foot and have about another foot left and, so far, it looks like I'll be fine.
Here are a few group pics:
As you can see from above, it's impossible to tell, at this point, where one plant ends and the next one begins but, roughly speaking....
This is the Mendocino Purple Kush:
This is the Platinum Cake:
This is the Dark Ghost Train (not a great pic - sorry!
And, this is the Tropicanna Cookies x Slurricane:
As far as the Kill-a-Watt knock-off, I did read the manual and the issue isn't me. I haven't had any time to play with it, yet, to try to narrow down the issue and it hasn't been a big concern since, as I mentioned previously, I'm confident there's good light in the tent (I have the dimmer cranked up to about 90%, or more). The heat alone tells me its a lot more than 150w and really think it's the meter since, assuming it is more than 150w, I don't see how it's possible that the meter is reading lower than the actual draw unless it's a faulty meter.
More coming soon!
Happy Harvests!

DAY #7 OF 12/12 - STARTIN' TO STRETCH
I went to bed last night, after feeding the plants earlier with an increased dose of Purpinator, thinking I should have let the girls veg another week since, up to then, the stretch had really been minimal. When I woke up this morning, it looked like the plants grew 2"-3" overnight!
I don't think the Purpinator caused the stretch, by any means, but it was just time to up the dose of the Purpinator and it was finally time for the plants to start stretching!
They're all still incredibly healthy & happy with pistils starting to pop.
