I can't find the meme my wife showed me earlier. Pick of a mj plant budded out with a subtitle something like "it's bee 126 days where's my fucking tomatoes?"
Gonna see if she can send it to me...

Any tomatoes yet?

Haven't put them in the ground yet, lol.

 

[Aeroknow]

I don't even have mine running at the moment, my girls really don't have a lot of aroma. I'm sure that will change in a week or so when I flip them.

When you flippin the switch?

Still waiting on the clones to root, if I need to take more I would rather do it before I flip them.

I always take mine 2-3 weeks after flip. When they've stretched a bit and I clean up the underskirts.

I topped them and used the tops about a week ago.

Similar here for day length, these were getting just under 18hr and our average last frost is still 3 weeks out.

There are sections of hose burried in the big pots that are under the trays, I have a bucket with an aquarium heater and pump to circulate. Currently able to keep soil temps above 60 and air temps above 50 (at least last night, their first night). Dropped a few beans in one of the heated pots to see if they pop, but the hoses and heater are more for fall.
I might lose these, but I do have spares that I am gradually cutting the light on.

I was talking about time in flower.

The pots in those are limiting them to little stick plants, please pot up.

They may get bigger pots if they survive a few more nights, rest assured the spares are being better cared for. We have snow in the forecast for Sunday.

I've never lived anywhere it snows, so I am sure some of the meaning of a snow forecast is lost on me.

I am running a bit of an experiment to see if I can make more sense of growing this way, somewhat in sync with the season outdoor vs. indoor heat watts vs. light watts.

Yeah, I do the same thing, use the natural trend as a flywheel only adding or dragging as much as needed to stay in the Goldilocks zone.
What is nice is that it is my third winter now in the same flowering room, each time it goes a bit better.

As if you needed confirmation, you were right...










...about 2 of them, the others could have lasted another week without detriment and watering 2x daily
More pics.

Never short of work when you grow weed.
I just carried everything out of the veg room, cleaned it from ceiling to floor and then cleaned the porch in front of it too.
Going to have to make a good fire tomorrow to get rid of all the crap that collects so quickly.

Anybody tried vegging weed with a 50w LED security light? My only other option right now is 400W HPS... I'd prefer not to rack up an even bigger power bill, it is already stiff as it is and next harvest is 2 months out.

haven't done with a led security light, but i have done with an led bulb with the dome snapped off.....that how i started my current one i'm finishing now...

Yeah I have a little cabinet with bulbs for a couple of small plants, but this is more like a small washroom. I moved the Samsung strips to the flower room, so I don't really have another instant plan. feels like a joke though to replace a 45000 lumen rig with a 4000 lumen spotlight.

Maybe I should just run the 400W and germinate one of the auto seeds in there on the side to cover some of the cost eventually.
