Blueberry Hashplants coming along. I think 400w may be too much at the height im running. I'm thinking of turning it down to 300w. This light has a weird dimmer format. 2 switches. 2 settings each. At 300w I can make the spectrum more red or blue. I figure red this time of flower. The clones are loving the bigger containers. It's turned out to be a great strain to learn to Clone with. I see now where people can really keep new runs going. I need to pheno hunt some other strains but these are keeping me busy.

Looking good buddy! They don’t look like they are struggling tho.. why drop the light? More photons more flower

Day 47 and these 2 CDLC are totally out of control and over 20 inches tall now I've had to do some serious pruning and trimming top and underneath. I do a little everyday and it doesn't seem to phase them at all.

Two square feet per plant isn't anywhere enough room, they really want to spread out and are up against the walls and each other. I'm definitely going to be getting a bigger tent set up in my spare bedroom while these do their thing.

I'm struggling with either a MG deficiency or somehow, maybe lockout? It's been awhile since I've had plants that are this hungry, so I'm not feeling lockout.... it's really just some fan leaves. Mostly, the flowers are still healthy but some of the tops were appearing to burn. My PPFD is 950. I thought about dimming but my DLI is 41 ,so on the lower end. The lowers look fine. I've burned tops before. I'm sure I will again. The whole room is getting that fruity, hashy smell. It won't be but a few weeks and I'll have another round of clones ready. These are going in 5g. Containers. The Peat Puck in FFOF experiment has worked pretty well. I've not lost any and I don't even have to baby them really. .20 cents each and a dab of Clonex. It may not be the best way, but I can afford this. And, I could have done worse lol. I'm ready to Pheno hunt through some of these other strains my friend gave me.

I just rechecked my PPFD. I dunno how I had it wrong, but my PPFD was 1700!!. Ridiculously high. No wonder the burn! I dropped it a notch on the blue spectrum. It's a redder light now and 1050 PPFD. I've read that a 300w light is perfect for a 3x3. This 400w has 9 bars, so, its dead even all across. 1700? Lol. I never thought at max height that it would blast them like that. Even with CO2, that's too much. Geesh. That's 73.4 DLI
