They are pretty awesome, set once and forget. They know when each plant needs water and how much it needs.
I'm gonna build my beds out of cedar 2x and line the bottom with some mat from the garden store. Build the same way you do outside though. Just inside. You have to run numbers but I've heard glue and a few others will straight kill it in beds.
After this next run finishes I'm gonna at least start building them.

12/12 day 26 Raspberry Montage x Blackberry Pie
Cutting clones today after baby girl goes to sleep. I'll take some pictures.
Need the hubby to raise the lights again. I am way too short.
The girls seem to be enjoying the additional nutes.
I was having issues with my air conditioning not cooling my house properly and eventually figured out that the outside of my AC was covered in dog fur or something. Me and the hubby cleaned it and now the house stays at 72-74 F vs 77 - 79F. That was an annoying and frustrating couple of days. Luckily it didnt get warmer than 75 in the basement.

Starting to get some fruity flowery and funky scents off the girls. Had to add extra stakes to two of the girls.
Spent almost two hours with the girls today. Adjusting them, supporting em, adjusting lights, watering, cleaning up.

You must be blessed with a dry environment if I put my plants that close together with that little training I would have powdery mildew so bad.

She does have a few fans in there so with all the air circulation it prolly isn't a problem. You can get by with that in some places with good air flow but your in CO so I know you prolly cant unless you have massive air flow.

Yeah I don't know what the deal is out here but the powdery mildew is intense I been having to deal with it for years and I have relocated and scrubbed and use all kinds of stuff , keep my room temps and humidity in check just seems to fester out here.

I have a dehumidifier set at 40%. 380 cfm exhaust, two powerful canopy fans, one medium strength under the canopy, and two along the sides.
Set up to make air flow in a circle.
I also use potassium bicarbonate once a week.

Something hard to show in pics is the spacing. There is alot of airflow within the canopy due to their stretch pattern.

PM doesnt grow in high airflow and high ph environment.

You guys are talking baking soda + neem seed oil + soap+water? That's what I been using to treat the powdery mildew, I have 2 large fans blowing 1 small one, dehumidifier set to 30%, and 400cfm inline exhaust fan, and two 190 cfm intake fans.temps are 74F during lights on , 72F during lights off, humidity is 40% constantly. Just spotted another patch of PM on the goat today sprayed the baking powder/neem/soap mix today and wiped up afterwards as to not have humidity spike. Any other suggestions are welcome thanks . Oh and my intake has a HEPA shroom shroud on it.

sadly no .this is the proper defence aginst PM IMO- http://buildasoil.com/products/agsil16h-potassium-silicate
AND every week till week 2-3 flower.... at least 1/4 t per gallon soil dreanch or foliar .
potassium bicarb works to keep it at bay. but once its taken hold you need the ksil it improves sap flow and provides nourishment for the cell walls (turgidity)...
