What's up guys. Doing a quick in between run on the 80cri tent while I start some new beans for my next sog. August was the month from hell for me.
The 2 plants in the middle are a Three Queens from CSI Humboldt and an Apollo x C99 from Bros Grimm, both from seed.
The surrounding little cuts are Sour Legends from Cannarado.

Haven't been able to give them the attention they deserve the past few weeks and it shows.

They seem kinda yellow and droopy. What is your grow medium and nutrient regimen? What type of light where they on before? How are your temps?

That's exactly why they're rough. They're in coco and growstones with some old promix that was accidentally thrown in the mix which threw it all off. The jacks hydro doesn't really work in peat based mediums. They get jacks 321 every 2 days. They should all pick up steam in another week or so. Temps have been between 80 and 84 at times when the a.c goes off. Which is high for me and them.
They were under 35 watts of Vero10's

I got ya. I was never a fan of coco. I like medium that has some meat and potatoes in it. Seems like a little strange mix, but I guess you do what you got to do. Your planst seem to need nutrients and stronger light. I used to grow under two 2' cfl tubes for veg, not much wattage but I got a lot of growth and a lot of green. I don't think that Jacks is working for you. Temp issues seem apparent, your ladies are unhappy. Maybe a nice fan, some good nutrients with cal-mag and some humic acid to increase uptake of nutrients might help as well.
good luck. I have some DIY QB boards made from Samsung strips running at 160w for some small plants fresh out of cloner before I can put them under a GrowGreen 200w light. Either case the plants maintain good dark green color. I don't think light was th biggest issue, heat, ventilation, and nutrients. hope they snap back.
peace

Very nice!

I'm finding that the PCB boards seem to give a lot more light to the whole plant, thus I run my lights super low wattage like 150watts... I was down at 125. When I lowered the wattage from 225 to 135 the plants perked up a lot.

It's crazy because these kinds of lights are far better than my cob builds as far as watts are needed.

nice grow, cool build =)

Day 69
Gonna cut the lights tomorrow night.
Had to take out the C99/Apollo last week because I spotted a little bud rot in the main cola which was huge, unfortunately.
Wish I kept a cut of this Sour Legend.
Had a lot of things going on since labor day and couldn't give the tent the attention it needed but the girls still pulled through nicely. I'l take some shots when they'e all dried up and ready to jar.
