@Ghettogrower187 I'm guessing you grabbed these from a fella from outer space ?. If so I've still got his mimosa and I've just started veggin up some lemon tree from him so I'll let you know when it's finished if there the same plants but looking at your lemon tree the leaf shape and structure don't look the same also the mimosa is a monster yielder. Also got the blueberry vintage and rhinestone og in aswell.

I am flipping mine tonight. I'll post some pictures once they start flowering. Just got to make some mods to how the lights are hung. I am a bit height limited and I have worked out a way of getting 100mm of extra height.
Thankfully I don’t really suffer height issues with my closet.

the plant table is approx 10” high off the floor but I have normal ceiling height to contend with in there.

so I’m able to hang my filter directly above my lighting fixture and still have plenty of room underneath the light to grow 3-4ft tall plants if I want.

When I was hanging my lights I did wonder wtf do they make wire hangers so long, I doubled them over to half the height, in my clone tent I changed the multi strand wire hangers for about 3" of solid wire hangers.

I am in an apex tent. Like this...

It is 120x120 (4'x4'). It is 140cm (4'8") to the start of the slope, my extractor fan live in the apex. I am using standard ratchet hangers. I figured out that if I replace the caribinas (sp) on each end of the hanger with zip ties I gain 50mm (2") of extra height and if I replace the hanging wires on the TS1000s with thick doubled zip ties I get another 50mm.

I am normally good for height, but these TS1000s are much more intense than the cheap Amazon COBs I had before and I want my next grow to use some home made SIPs which will add 200mm to the height of the pot, so every bit of distance will count. I can get another 50mm if I do away with the ratchets altogether and use chains, but ratchets make adjusting the lights easy, so I will only do that if forced. As long as I can keep 300mm above the canopy I will be golden.

Yep, I just did away with them and used some doubled HD zip ties. I tested the zip ties by suspending a van flywheel off a pair of them in the shed.:D

Haha yes the alien he's a good lad, I had a load of fritters off him that went bad so he replaced them for free with lemon tree, I've asked him and he says he's not had mimosa for over 6 months sonit can't be, but it just stinks of mimosa, all the lemon tree were only vegged for about 2 weeks or so hence their small stature but they have filled the space out quite nicely, cheers dude looking forward to seeing your plants
