My old lady's famliy is irish and it help her calm down sometimes ;) man people have used floros for years now. I did alright with the leds this time even with the move and the bugs while i was on vacation. I am happy to say them f'ers are gone, but i am still kind of twitchy about them. They where bad when i got home.

Nothing like an infestation to make the skin crawl.

I think that the mind perceives the mathematics of the explosion,
on some level that just feels anxious. :0)

Yep when i ran AIS no bugs period. So hydro means no bugs. I have to do the research and talk with a few hydro guys and buy a setup so i can grow indoors like i can outdoors. Man outdoors is where it is at. Indoors is 4x the work. but i have no choice so indoors i will keep trying to master. yeah give me a decade or so.

Yeah doc sadly I lost the sinmint male. It started acting real funky when I took it out of the room to collect pollen. Then instead of dropping the pollen it died in like 4 days.

"Yeah doc sadly I lost the sinmint male."

Oh. Wow. Sorry to hear about this TC.

I am still new to the pollen chucking game, but I already
know that "the special male" is what it is all about.

My first thought was to use two of the cells to flower, with a light
mover working on both cells simultaneously. (I think Who did this)
Then use the third for Veg.

NO Vert person though...Doc will comment.

I agree take the back two 5x5 and hang two lights and put the plants in a figure 8.
i guess id have to leave a spot open or somethin so i could get to the plants .the door is on one end like a hallway almost
its framed up around a hotwater heater :( i finally buy a place with a walkin closet and i get 3/4 of a walkin instead :?

i think if i did 2 layers and shaped it like 3 with the opening towards the corner i could just leave one plant spot open right at the corner and i could squeeze in there to work the scrog
