Nice! Serious growth. Thinking of a de-fo again like I did last time for the Cloak. Did pretty good that way.
Do you do the day 1, day 20 de-fo?
Don't know that I like it to much in the scrog but seems to work well in the Cloak. The scrog gets big-leafed. Some plants enjoy it more then others though.
This is your current run? Looks good my friend!
Pretty sure you told me before so excuse the question of I don't remember. What are those 4 or 5 gall totes you're using?
Thinking of a self watering feeding system myself.

i did do the day1 defo and around day 21 defo.that is the first time i did it that way.usually i dont till the end of stretch but 21 was close to the end of stretch so tried it because of you doing it!
those are 3 gallon rough neck totes from menards or home depot.check out ppk threads on icmag.cheap and easy to build and works great.top fed with a pump on short cycle timer but has a tailpiece that will wick if the pump fails or timer fails.since there is a tailpiece and you leave an air gap you do not need a chiller since the roots are not sitting in the juice.i use jacks 5/12/26 and cal nit 15/0/0.cheap easy.i have pulled over 11 oz off of one plant in these three gallon totes.that was 4 plants around 2 600 hps stacked.
i would defo in the cloak.you have enough room and plants to try the defo in one section of the amare scrog.if you have 2 plants the same i would try that

yes but the sip is just for back up if something goes wrong with the top feed.have had timer mess up and all it did was slow down growth for the two weeks i was gone.got it back online and growth exploded again

Ace if Spades under the Amare's w/ just the cobs. 
Again my Flo plants didn't do well. Here's s lil bud though. Smelly n dank, just don't yield well w/ allota smallish stuff. 
Kings In the Cloak reaching its end. 
Side shot. As you can see, I don't bother plucking dead. It is what it is. Just chock full o bud. I'd say those 2 plants maxed out that bay @ 22.5" on center.

Awesome grow brother looking beautiful reading though some of the posts yeah I don't get the hate on Led. Looks like your amare's are killing it.
I almost bought those before I decided to build my own cobs, getting 2lb on 500w per 4x4, and super frosty sticky fire.. Couldn't pay me to go back to hps/mh

Thank you it took years of hard work, testing, studying reading learning to get there. I think your grow log really shows that the future of growing indoors isn't in the future it's here!!!!!
I used to run 1000w HPS per 4x4 with some 6500k cfls mixed in to help with stretch. On a really good run maybe 1.5-1.6 lb.
Half the wattage and I'm avg 2 -2.15 lb. It's insane and I love it.

Naw, it's just that you're the man & one of the only people I know claiming over 1.5 off a SE1000 like its normal, myself included.

Yeah ole yodaweed there has a gayboy hard on for me . For some reason he follows around posts that I'm on and either posts just flat out bad growing advice or he just talks shit about me lol all because I destroyed a post he made with actual tangible proof to back up how wrong he was lol
Something like how much light I'm loosing using reflectors and even though I knew he was wrong I could not help but to troll him lol.
So I bust out my lux meter and run a bunch of tests with and without reflectors, and posted the results. Let's just say my way got much larger numbers and almost no hot spots very even spread on my numbers. His way 30% decrease in light at the canopy huge range of numbers creating hotspots not even spread , and most importantly on the side of the tent where no plants grow above canopy it went from 3200 on meter with reflectors and without them it went to 60,000 and pegged my meter lol.
