Nice job,
Q -> what's the distance between the leds and canopy? (I'm trying to find the best way to stop grow/stretches on mine...it's an invasion here
) 30cm/1 foot seems fine?
We shoot for no closer than 13-15 inches for flowering plants under our Mars II 900s, and about 8 under the Spider X4. For sprouts we stay around 30 inches, moving into about 22 during vegging and really just growing into the final height. We try not to move our lights, instead using boxes and whatnot to bring the plants up to the lights. If training was perfect, you shouldn't have to move them up for flowering. In theory at least.
Well done Jay. You need to leave a post, any post will do, so I can give you reps, you elusive and hard-working man.
Busted total hump that guy. We're still figuring out what else we want to do, but there's a good chance we'll be quickly moving to a raised platform for the plants. I've had it with all this squatting while our lights are at waist height.
And we need a little space for cloning, which we're still planning on playing with from our CH9 POW 33 and CKS White Widow.
Nice! You'll have a whole room, instead of a tent, to grow. Now that I'm using a tent, I'm missing the whole closet grow....having an entire room would be ideal ...... What an addictive hobby!
No question, right?! Our original plan back last fall was a small, self contained, and somewhat mobile cabinet grow. So much for that.
New space sounds great guys. So if I understand correctly, your tent/s will be operating as normal inside this room that can accommodate vegging plants without a tent? If so, that's sweet!
Plants are looking smaller than I'm used to, I'll come back in a week or two... Lol

cheers
The room is about 8 x 12, but the first four feet inside the door has a lower head height for ducting. Luckily it's about two inches taller than our Mars 4x4 tent and it tucked right in on the right as you enter the room. For now it will be our flowering space at 12/12, leaving the remaining 8x8 for anything at 20/4, vegging plants and autos.
Our Secret Jardin tent is packed up and unused. Left to do is a set up maybe some kind of cabinet for cloning (possibly at 18/6 I'm thinking) and for storage of our curing product. One of the goals was to get all drying, curing, burping, etc. behind a carbon filter.
Speaking of that, I have to go order another one. Obviously our original 4 inch combo isn't going to cut it and is in need of replacement anyway.
Just dropping by to say hello our friend
no worries, we all have life to deal with and sometimes we just plane get busy. Hope all is well in your world and things are looking awesome as usual.
Blessed buds our friend an see ya around soon.
Always good to see ya Arctic, thanks for sticking around during my absence(s).
I see that kitten still has you all tied up in love knots.
Give her a scratch behind the ears for me.
We've had a stream of visitors as well, but mostly it's the kitten. She's able to captivate an entire room for hours on end, fascinated to observe the subtle differences between standard domestics and Bengals. It's a little like comparing 'vettes, Chevettes and Corvettes.
What a kitten, nice plants too brother
I've fallen way behind on my journal, but the plants are still getting the required attention during Charlie's catnaps.
I'll post an update of sorts tonight, but it'll be a few weeks yet before I'm back to my usual posting schedule.
