Here’s my MegaCrop 2.0 hempies. They are starting to fade, especially one. They at day 41f or so so I expected the fade. Pretty happy with them so far.
Frosty ladybugs!

Quite a sight to see, beetles with trichomes. My ladybugs always killed the pest, climbed into my old florescent fixture and eventually my old mars300 case to die. I use QBs now.
@DrDoob are your ladybugs long term residents?

They usually die out after a couple weeks in the tent, I have a screened habitat they live and breed in, the. I grab a cup full every week or so to throw in the tent. I had some whiteflies but got rid of them and don’t want them to come back, hopefully the ladybugs keep them away for good.

Feeding the breeding ones sugar water?
I'd like to start a herd. I'll have to order some.

I give them raisens and keep a plant with some water at the bottom for them, but when I put a water dish in they suicided in it.
They don’t last forever, I think cold nights keep them from breeding, but I get a good steady supply for several months for about $10 so it’s all good.
how many and what size space DV ? asking cause i got 2L lunacy planned and on the go.
maybe some normal light pics of the 2Ls ?
I have ten 2lt soda bottles. 100% perlite. They are in a 30inch by 30inch by 63inch tent. 1000w JHOTEC LED about 18" from tops.
6" inline fan. And two 6" fans on canopy.
From floor to tops: 43" to 47".
I'll get some pics tomorrow. Just gave them a haircut.
sweet. thanks for that DV.
i got 12 2L hempys i'm planning on finishing in the same space as my 5 5L hempy jungle grow. kind of a white trash style SOG. they are going into a 32" X 42" space. it's the shower closet space we built.
gonna explore what i can do for a 2L shot. thinking of a 4 plant scrog in the same place after. wanna get as many different approaches as i can to explore the limited space. these are the smallest spaces i have ever been part of.
My next ones are going into 1.5 gallon plastic Hempy Buckets. Under a 300w LED for some LST. Then into the flower tent.
My veg box is 2'x3'x4'
i got a decent veg space now. might post a build if i get brave enough and find the time. took the pics and just never did it.
judging from my 5L those 1.5s will support monsters if you want. the 5Ls are a touch smaller. i coulda vegged a single plant till it took over my whole space let alone 5 lol..
promise an update soon on the jungle. doing a loooonnngg flower cycle.

They grow so fast in hempy.
Majority of the young plants were started in rockwool cubes and all were transplanted to 100% red lava rock hempy. It's a mess in there.

Some midweek eye candy. A little update on the 3" tubes. They were under a 3000k led in my veg box for a week when I moved them under this 3500k/5000k mix for my flower tent. I mention that cause the leaf coloring looks deficient but they are definitely turning darker green under this new spectrum. I have been watering every other day and they seem to love it so far. Here is a couple shots

They look good Buck. The experiment is working. 
And DV-travis... you’re working it! They bounce quickly after transplant.
Everyone’s doing wonderfully! Hempy rocks! My own experiment came down today. My corner-hugging DDA that spent her entire life in the veg tent in a gallon of perlite looks to be giving me better than 3 oz of sweet, gooey delight.
Then we harvested Carnival 6.
Which leaves me with one more DDA in that veg tent....
.... and the next Carnival flipped.
She had to be tied down so she’s not too close to the light when she stretches.
Oh yeah.... Brix has that big, bad Devil’s Carnival in 5 gallons of perlite turning a nice shade of purples.
Look at this stem!
Off to bed with me. See you all tomorrow.
