Room of Gorilla Glue, in 40th day of a 60 day flower run.
The power goes out at about 8am.
The the room is operated about 60% by a huge generator.
Twelve 1000 watt Gavida DE HID's continue to run, half of the AC goes down, half the fans go down, all of the dehumidifiers down.
Temps go up .... Gavida controls trim light down to 60%.
RH goes to 70%.
End of day, gen goes off.
Next day ... generator goes on. Lights go on.
Half the AC goes on.
Temps and RH go up. LIghts dimming ...
By 3pm Gavida controls turn lights off because heat hit 90F.
RH goes to 80% by 8pm.
Day three ... generator goes on. Lights go on.
I trim the lights manually to maybe keep them on a little longer.
The electricians try to move some of the other functions to the generator.
Generator fails.
Lights off, AC off. EVERY thing is off.
I got water dripping off the ceiling by 1pm.
We open up all available doors ... Set out fans run by two small generators.
Put out shop lights ... trying to get at least some light to the girls.
At 3pm, we get a visit from the police; neighbor complaining about the smell.
I ask one of the cops if he'd shoot me - he declines.
Next day, they got the big generator running.
Room temp 88F, RH 75%, lights at 55% -- all day.
Next day ... the shelf with all the clones for the next run are laying on their sides.
During one of the outages, the controls for the temp was damaged - temp was too hot, they cooked - 400 dead babies.
Power on about 3pm. Back to normal by 5pm. Lights out at 6pm.
Three days later ... we have PM just starting.
Spray twice a day with Plant Therapy.
Next day ... PM getting better. But ... someone spots Thrips.
Can I mix Spinosad and PT? I dunno ... now we spraying TWO different stuffs at TWO different times ...
Five days later:
Showing signs of nute lock now. Not taking up fluids.
Droopy leaves with burnt tips.
AND, red streaks up the stems ... Magnesium deficiency ...
How the hell do I restrict salts in the soil, AND increase magnesium ....
Ten days till scheduled harvest.
By now, these poor plants are begging me, as I walk into the room I hear "kill me."
Poor girls.
So, we harvested that crap and ... guess what the trimmers find.
Go ahead .... guess.

Of course. And, I don't have clones for my turn, or for three others that I am responsible for cloning for that month.
I'm sorry boss. I really did the best I could with what I had to work with.
