Second run with these 6 cxas.
Last run I yielded a little over 200 gr pulling 250w at the wall including fans, which I'd like to test again since I only judged the pull after being plugged into my killowatt for only a minute, but I'm finding most electrical devices won't give a true reading until an hour or two of running through the killowatt.
So I may In fact be pulling less watts than I thought, in turn already hitting my gpw last time.
Made a new slightly larger screen this run and also went from 5gal pots to 3gals which so far I'm liking a little more. A good friend told me as long as they're constantly getting fed which these are every watering the pot size won't matter as much.
Taking these girls a full 10 weeks.

Thanks Sxott! I'm hoping to achieve even better results this time. With the way these stretched and are stacking it looks like I just might.
I tested the pull of each driver again to the killawatt and they are indeed each pulling 118w and 120w at the wall.
I also started 2 part feeding throughout the day on feed days that I picked up from Captain Morgan and they seem to be responding great to it.

Here they are at day 26.
Canopies not nearly as uniform as the last run but besides these not being trained through their life and stretching a lot more, I still have a bunch of bud sites and quite a few that will be making some monster colas.

The room the tent is in has the a.c. on 24-7 on power save mode. I don't know if you can make out my temp gauge but it peaks at around low 70's rh at night when lights off. But during lights on/day time it's high 40's low 50's and it hasn't even been too humid out yet.
I'm nervous about mold. Does the fact it doesn't stay in the high60's non stop mean I'll be ok or should I try and keep the rh at a steady 50 24/7?

Day 35 half way home!

The lights are only about 4" away from tallest colas. So far so good.

Found out about the rh jumping up at night/lights out. When you run an air conditioner on the power save mode it reaches the set temp then stops cooling but the fan will continue to run blowing air over through the unit as it's temp starts to rise creating humidity in the room. While I didn't put it to the test yet I will once we get those sweltering days and nights and ill just keep the ac running continuously at a set temp.

Looking good man. Your grows get me all excited because Im running cxb3070 in a small tent scrog myself (2x4).
I have some gg4 just hitting day 21 of flower. (first led grow)
I hope my results come out as well as yours.

If your worried about PM (as anybody should cause it sucks) , Id cut out as much under growth as I could and make sure they have some good air circulation around them. AND Have some GreenCure on hand just in case.

Sweet man that's awesome, love seeing small grows yield a lot. I'm about to set up a small plastic cabinet myself 36"h x 25"w x 16"d gonna throw in 4 or 5 vero 29 at 700mA and scrog it, hopefully it'll work out ok. Going for a stelth grow should be fun!

Day 47. 25 days to go.
The smell from both of these is out of this world! I'm happy with the growth but worried that all the fans are covering the lower half of the buds since they're so overcrowded.
Last run run I had zero larf or popcorn.
This time I'll have a good frosty amount for some bubble.
Remember those crazy glue commercials with the guy hanging from the construction beam with his hard hat? Well brush up against the Fire 99 and you'll get the same effect.

Here's a few of the next girls in line for some CXA action.
DNA Lemon Walker and HSO Greencrack
The gc was started 3 weeks after the walker. Gonna have to boost her up even more to even them out. They have another 3 weeks under the v10s, then a week of veg under the cobs.
I really like 5000k for veg. Nice green, healthy and stout if you keep the light close.
The little girl down bottom is a Highrise Ghazediesel half auto that I started for the hell of it as a back up which the seed was so tiny I didn't think it would go anywhere. Gonna let my bud throw it outside this week and see what she does.
