Zkittlez gets a defoliation and a little pruning.
I tried to trim every old leaf, leaves touching each other, and some small low branches. I don't have the circulation fan going inside and they were wet. Everywhere one leaf touched another was just wet. I really need that fan on in there.

Tent temperature is down to 80'sF managable now I think.
I turned the cmh light so the hot balast is closer to the carbon filter to remove the heat better
I also adjusted the temperature for the fan lower to turn on.
Finally switched the house Air Conditioning on, the ductwork brought down Temps a lot.

Zkittlez had a low pH 4.4 I adjusted up to 5.6 and added hydrogaurd about 2.5ml

Og Kush in the closet is getting some nute burn on leaftips nutes have been around 800 ppm. I'll start to alternate with regular water more.

So, Critical Lights is pretty well dry, and put into jars now. Because the plant was dry at harvest and not very dense it dried quickly. I don't have a weight yet but expect somewhere under an ounce for the top bud and about double that for larfy bud.
Since the 1st bubble bucket run went well just about everything under the top buds is going in the trim.
Trim on Right "packed" and bud "loose" on Left in 1 quart Mason jars

These are dry and steady at 60% humidity now. Dry weight for bud was 40g. The 4 jars of trim filled 1.5 jars. It's not dense like the last one. Definitely not the best harvest but a harvest at least.
 
I'm back to caught up on plant trimming accept maybe needing defol on the zkittlez.

These two critical lights plants had problems with temperature and humidity in the basement. I'm talking flood, humidity,overwater,underwater, a real shitshow of a grow but 100% real.
Not gonna be #'s on yield but I'm glad to be realistic for all the lurkers that might run something similar. There's drying left on the last 2 but I'm guessing about an ounce of good bud per plant.
Thank You, everyone who has helped and been a part.

Trouble. Mite damage on zkittlez. I've sprayed a couples times already,and hope that along with the defoliation has the buggers gone.
I'll be watching close and doing an sns foliar and probably another heavy defoliation after everything recovers.
Everything is an option right now including scraping the closet grow.So far the tent is ok.

I unhooked the led light in the closet, plugged up the old 32watt CFL, cranked up the exhaust fan,and the 6" circulation fan.
All this because of doing a different foliar spray. It's water,yeast,citric acid,and peppermint oil. I'm not 100%sure mites were the issue but this gives me a 3rd way I've been treating it.

As far as I know maybe ok in the closet. I don't think I can know that the problem is solved without removing damaged leaves and watching new growth for any problems.
I really want to get the zkittlez to healthy thriving veg growth before flower. "And I need room to upsize the og kush.

I still haven't noticed any signs of damage on OG Kush or Critical Lights, they had already been treated with sns and dr doom on rotation before problems. Blackberry kush has been tossed after loss heavy mite damage and transplant shock going from hydro to coco.

I'm pretty happy with how the og kush in the tent is going. As my climate conditions improve so are the plants. So just run the right conditions...sounds so easy.
I've got some new yoyo's in from elevated lighting company's Hydro shop. Id like to let these two flower a little longer and they might need support.

I've been checking out your droughting thread. Pretty cool stuff, it's got some Interesting ideas and awesome plant pics.
I really wonder how this plant will test. It's had several major stresses unintentionally. I'm running clones and already had previous harvest tested.
I'm expecting a lower yield because of the issues, but I'll check for potency.
A 2% potency difference would be worth almost any yield difference.
There was a difference in potency, just not the kind I would like. 13% about 3% less than the previous harvest. The guy that did the test said it could go up some with curing, but the bud is probably all up in smoke by now.
