Moving the lights from the T5 to the first high amp setup. A 600w was put inside the tent to flower out the second run.

The next phase in a cultivator is moving out of the closet and into a tent. I began by installing the two T5 lights which turned out to be a nightmare.
Placing two lights in the 4×4 texnt. Not the best idea and created a heat issue.
Overheated the plants almost right away.

The first plant processed and the next round up. The results of the first run ended up being a badly flushed plant.
The large female under the 2″ T5. This would be last time I ran like this.
The sisters under a 4″ upstairs.
The first jar of cured product. Very low quality and not safe to consume ๐

I wanted to start a new strain and decided to seed some Purple Kush from Canada. This was a very long and drawn out grow that ended up outside for the summer.
The seedling setup. This turned out to be a bad idea as these domes require a full slate of cubes to keep humidtiy balanced.

Around this time I also started generating my own compost tea.

Decided to flower out the hermi’d plant. In the end this turned out to be a mistake that effected future grows with stray pollen. Went through the standard harvesting process.
The plant pulled from the closet.
Up close flower.
First branch.
Curing above the light was a rookie mistake but I had no other options.

Getting close to the end of the first plant.
Flower up close. Still every green.
Well developed hairs.
Some very sad plants.
The plant finalized.
Tricomb development a little lax.

As happens at least once to every cultivator, lack of knowledge on understanding lead to a shocked plant. I first noticed the male sex traits around the 20th but continued growing for the experience.
Male flowers started growing due to light shock.
Still grew the flowers out 5 days later.

In the first attempt at innovating cultivation technology, single tube T5 fixtures are added to the edge of the trestle.
The added lighting projects a more full canope to the plant.
The first flower had started to form.
The fixtures were projecting the light inside the plant.
Under the light.

The clones were ready to be repotted but haven’t never done it before a single one was attempted first.
Setting up to repot a single clone.
The root zone has developed enough to grow in soil.
Planting the first clone. Notice the green algee issue I had with the rockwool.
Repot completed.
2 days explosive growth after repot.

The plant began to grow close to the light and it was time to start training it to grow within the space it had.
The plants setup.
Drilling the holes for training.
With the core branches pulled downward.
Early signs of flower growth.
