went ahead and re strung my screen, and hung he chains,, just going to let them get a little taller, and then use the screen to guide the top colas, not scroggin, just holding them in position so hopefully every top gets some space and light, when the screen goes on the tie wire below used in early training will get removed

THis is just about the most boring grow i have ever done, hahah,, really , i open the door, ad water to the SIP if needed, straight from the faucet, check the light, make sure the fans are running, glance at the temps, close the door,,, the sip does the rest, maybe i should do hydro , give myself something to do,,, just kiddin,, well here are a few pics

Huge ice storm here, power has been out 3 days , soon 4 days , I have kept the plants alive by running a power cord down my hallway from a generator, the cobs led pulls 250 watts , no fans have ran since Friday, I prop the door open like a closet grower, honestly I can understand the closet grower now who doesn't have big ventilation , the plants look surprisingly good with nonfans running for 3 days just a light and me opening the grow box doors , temps have held at 71 degrees, and the leaves all look happy, so I keep my fingers crossed , power might be out for 7 more days ???

power came back on , 6 days without power or fans ,i ran a power cord down the length of my house and ran a generator outside during the daytime, i kept the light on, and just cracked the door on the grow box , temps held at 71 with light on, but got cold at night while we slept,,, the SIP took good care of the plants,, they dont seem any worse for wear,, I thought i saw some powdery mildew this morning,, but not really sure, so i will keep an eye on it, any how, things are back up and running, i managed to keep them alive, and myself

Looking very nice in there! 
I see hints of Evil-Mobo with that Variac
1 Question on the light - was there a reason you put the cobs together so tightly rather than spreading them out a bit?

yes, i usually run out of head room after they stretch, even with all the early training, when i made the light frame that size,, its so i can raise the light right up next to the exhaust fan if i have too, and i have on a few grows, gains me a good 10 inches,, the latest plan is to take out the big fan that i have ran for the past 6 years and put a new fan on top of the grow box, a differant type of fan, then i am going to reubild the cob light and spread them out, as well as a few more grow box mods, ill be busy this summer for a couple of weeks,, i havent really dont any box mods or repairs,, i have been just running grow after grow,, taking summers off, its going to make the inside a whole lot better, plus i can go back to a longer veg time and hopefully get bigger tops because of it,, instead of flipping based on head roomLooking very nice in there!

@OneHitDone i emailed evil and we chatted for a few days, but he isnt growing and i didnt know what else to talk about , sounds like he regrets moving back to the east coast, and i feel for him, i wish he could get back to doing what he loves

during the power outage the fans didnt run,, and powdery mildew was able to start ,, i saw it quick, and nipped it in the bud,, I did a big leaf defoliate, and sprayed them down with green cure after lights out,, its been 3 days ,, no sign of Pm,, been thru this before,, easy to manage, and with the temps back up and fans running strong, i doubt it will return,, plants look much like they did last grow,,
I did something i said i wasnt ,, i turned on my 3k cree cobs,, i used the watt meter and dialed the panel to 260 watts,, not going to burn leaves this grow,, hahah,, well everyone is praying today,, pics
