Day 8 of flower. They've grown a bit.

New table and modifications done. A few grows back I stepped on my table and punched a hole in it. I managed to patch it with fiberglass, but that began failing after one grow. I like the new one, it's 48" OD so a little smaller than the old one

Just found the community journal here. :weed:
I'll throw my 2 cents in with a Barney's Farm Blue Cheese that's starting week 2 of flower after 3 weeks veg from seed. It's my first try with the breeder, strain and small pot/short veg so I'm looking forward to see how it turns out. I cut a couple clones before flip incase I like the results.

Welcome!!

I have to ask what you have underneath your drainage platforms. A little gravity assistant for draining?

Also, your stacked pots are intriguing.

I have the drainage platforms sitting on these...
They're tall enough to get the drain line over the tent frame and out a small hole to drain to the pump.

And I have the tent up on an old pallet to get some height for the condensate pump.20241026_162206.jpg
I used a similar homemade drain system a few years ago (that's why the hole is in the middle of the tent and not further back) and got flooded a couple times due to an air bubble getting stuck in the line even when having a small rise in it, so I wanted to be safe and get everything over the base frame and constantly gravity draining. I also took out the catch filters from the platforms to get better drainage flow (I feed really quickly) and supplement them by using a paint strainer bag in the pot to keep debris from falling out.
I just started using the FloraFlex gear a few weeks ago so still trying to adjust to it along with a switch from perlite and hempy buckets to dtw coco.

As far as the stack job goes, the feet kinda lock into place with each other and it just so happens to be the right height I needed for now. :D

Fabulous reply. Thanks so much! I and a few others have really benefited from floraflex. It's solid equipment at a good price point.

Aaaand I just bought 8. In green

I think I stand a good chance for self supporting plants after the training I've done. We will know soon. These are 3 weeks in, weight is going to pack on now. I had to raise the light a bit this morning.20241029_074441.jpg

3 weeks ago:
