Truth, I’m in a recent legalization state. Over the years I watched cautiously as friends grew outside or in poorly converted coal bins in old basements. I’ve smoked weak af homegrown grown under inadequate lights or harvested too soon.
Against that frame of reference I bought too many seeds and a nice spider farmer 27x27x60 tent.
First try? Three five gallon bags and three scraggly plants that produced weak, airy buds that were a tease and not a product.
Second try, two pots, two plants, much better, though nutes needed and better light management.
Third try, one plant in five gallons and more diligent light control. Added liquid nutes.
The last crop got sunburned due to a stretch and inadequate overhead room.
This time I reconfigured my filter right against the side corner, and relocated the inline blower outside the tent. With more headroom for the light, I can regulate the height better. But I’m really counting on a bit of LST. I tied the plant down enough that the start of a cola on the main stem is lower in height than the next few bud sites. I really think the plant reads the fluid pressure, and the highest cola site or sites gets the most hormone rich growth accelerant. Reducing the elevation of the top so iits not the top sets off the change.
At this point, approaching forty days, the ONE plant in one big five gallon cloth pot in a 27x27 tent under the SF1000 light is apparently happy. Ultimately the question will of course be whether my grow set up produces more product with one plant or two with the latest system. Once light is again the limiting factor, given the parameters of tent size and soil preference rather than soup. I’m enjoying it.
