That's a tall room too definitely handyThis why I'm not used to tent sized flip heights. Shouldn't give anyone motion sickness but maybe a touch of vertigo

That's a tall room too definitely handy
Stick a 5 Gallon pot on the seat in front of the manifold and its 45cm. From there to the electrical socket up high on the wall is 180cm - I know this because I had a Mim x OP that high last month! Now I have 4 of them in a 200cm high tent
Not only that but the only way she car grow is up!

Good luck! You know it's worth it though Keep thinking to run less plants and train more but it will never happen!
Fun with winches! No automatic fold feature on the light so you don't have to touch a thing?
Also, does that big center top fan go off when you kill the room lights?

That white separate switch for the fan is what finally took me over budgetā¦
Like a light mover run amuck.

7 nights since flip. Still not in flower. Put on an inch overnight. Bastards.

Apart from the Runtz x Layer Cake they are all already at their indicated heights. But its BS - I had a 180cm Mimosa x OP in days in a 5 Gallon. I picked them for their stocky heights. I had two MxOP to 110cm in 16oz solo cups so relying on the smaller pot size to save me is out.
The light is tight in on the canopy, 8" only at 80%, I'm going to pop the 3000k up a touch and reduce the 5000k a little. See if that holds them.
I'm not actually too worried. They have 70cm (28") canopy to tent roof - less 10cm max if I cable tie the light to the roof and 20cm for light to canopy.
Canopy to Roof 70cm
Less 20cm (space between canopy and light 8")
Less 10cm (space between light and tent roof)
Available
40cm - 16"
Loads of space!

So yeah, flushing. We only flushed our last main grow once, we used to be near every Sunday. Its great - āLazy Sunday Farmers Mixā Only 3 ingredients, like all the best stuff. We went really high EC, didn't flush and got a relatively tiny yield. Go figure.
Yeah didnāt need the whole exchange but I know that whole movie by heart - but yeah I fucked up - flush in coco. Today was handy as the veg girls tank also out so I knocked up 60 litres of flush feed.
3 Ingredients.
Water 60L
Cal-Mag 4-0-0 2ml/litre
Seaweed Amino 75ml/60 litres
I put 30+L @ Ph 5.6 through them. For all the little things. Lots of run off. The total pot size in there is 36L
The rest went to the other grows. All of it and fresh batches mixed tomorrow.
It clears any salt build up. Gives them something fresh with all that seaweed and amino stuff, a minor stress too. āWhatās this new shit?ā Shit that is telling you get your flower on, buddy. Tomorrow gonna shave their legs, et le week-end j'appelle fleur, innit, geeze?

Oh, you were referring to this solo cup grow! Okay, I get it. Sure, 12 Solos is way doable. I thought you meant in 5s or something.

This is the giant 0.75 gallon solo grow. Not the standard 16oz 12x OG Kush grow. I think its enough pot to get 8oz a plant out of if its absolutely perfect.

Guess they liked their change in rations. This praying thing is new. Makes them closer to 6ā from the light rather than the more reasonable 8ā it was yesterday.
Bastards.
Yeah, but the skin and eyes test seems to disagree with the fancy equipment in making that judgment.
- Thread starter

So yeah, they really did like their rations yesterday. Theyāve been getting 7 minutes off the small tank for a week. This equates to 10L so just shy of a litre average to run off into a 3L pot.
My video a couple of days ago you saw the last plant just start to drip about 10 seconds after Alexa announced 7 minutes.
Today they took 8 minutes which equates to about 12 litres or average 1L. Interesting given their massive feed yesterday. Today Rh and Temp were a bit wild for an hour, I have to adjust the Fan/Ac at least 15 minutes before lights on. And then the dehuey at lights on or it goes wild at about 10-11am i can do the same thing after lights on and it goes mental. I need to take it to extreme dry for an hour and then set to what I want.
Why?
It gets direct sunlight on the outside of the tent from 9:30 - 10:30 and it whacks my spinning plate out of kilter if its not spot on already.
Love that stuff. Its cool. Wake up and get it done every day. Similarly if I change over to night time settings too early it goes mental and I have to go to an extreme to set on a steady path. Been a week of it so far - when it was lights out at 2am I didnāt care so much. But that was veg. Different game now. New angles.

Actually the eyes are ok with it. Skin is nit quite in at the moment - thereās so much airflow the evaporation effect is screwing with my Skin sensor a bit. Feels cooler than it is.
Although they jumped a little by praying the 3000k is now on 100% and the 5000k on 70% I bumped them up earlier today.
This is a reading from the middle today 6ā from the light.
1100 is decent. Think weāll want to top out at 1400 max BUT all over which implies to me a decent 10ā distance from light to canopy. Leaf temps are 3 degrees negative same as yesterday.
Need to razor their legs soon. To like ultra sheer - 10 denier but not too high yet. Canāt get it back once its cut.

Man, that is a stacked up box. Beautiful plants.
There's a screw on the underside for calibration.

Loved that book as a 4 year old. L getting it for Christmas. The latest edition has an app for that rather than the slightly uncomfortable under arm dials

I mean thatās a solid 6ā plus, right?
(If you are 13 years old and living in England)
They were 8ā 3 days ago, then I dropped the pallet so that would have been 1.5ā
Now be generous its 3ā
So 6.5ā - 16.5cm since 5pm Tuesday less than 72 hours. 2ā a day. 5.5cm a day.

Oh leaf temp ticked up a bit. But not sure many people happy running their lights that close to achieve it
I just focus on Temp, Rh and airflow. Oh and turned up the 5000k white to 80%. Donāt need them chasing light now.
