Camshot of the 10gal Blue Ripper sat-dom pheno at 7 days, well into the stretch now. It's now caught up and passed the height of the other 10gal at the back. Making it look small - lol Will have to raise the lights this week, it'll go another 4"-6" in the next week. A few colas developing should be a good haul off this one.

Cheers mc, largest indoor I've run for sure. Interested to see the pull on it, liking these bigger plants, a lot less work overall. Next pheno hunt cycle with the 1gal's is going to be a pita, may setup my Claber drip system for those.

I wanted to look into a drip system. The blumats work fine in larger pots, but I also use 1 gal in one of my tents, have you had success with claber before ?

Haven't used it for a bit but have used it for a few rounds when I was flowering in what is now my veg cab and it worked fine. Pretty simple gravity-feed system, it has to be raised a foot or two above the drippers. Only pain is re-configuring it as you have to cut the lines to suit your pots/layout but the drip lines are standard and cheap at Lowes or HD.
It holds around 25L so 6.5gal and you can set up to 20 drippers, each one drops 2 oz. every 12 hours. No flexibility on the timer but all you do is trip it on when you want it to start and it'll go on that schedule every 12 hours from there on in. I'd usually set it to go on just before lights on, then it would trip again just before lights off. Haven't used it with 1gal's but I'd probably set 2x drippers per pot so up to 10 plants and then hand water/feed about once/week. Going to do an inventory and get it mounted, it'll save a lot of work if I end up with 8-10 1gal in flowering.

Update on the Blue Ripper F2 pheno hunt, Day 6 in the 1gal pots and they're all looking healthy. They should go through a good growth spurt this week now that they're settled and started showing new growth. Will clone them just before the flip (~10-12 days) and likely up-pot any fully-sexed or suspected females into 2gal's next weekend. That'll give them a few days to settle before flipping them.
Haven't seen any definitive female hairs yet, but 6-7 are looking like potential fems just by eye, that would be about right as a ratio. A couple of nice smelling phenos in there, including a very skunky one which hadn't come through in any of the F1's I grew out. If I happen to get a nice smelling and structured male I'll flower it. The LED tent should be available right around the same time these flip.

Some shots of the flower room, Day 49 and Day 10. 10-12 days left for the first 10gal, lots of frost building up and nice smells in there.
Second 10gal is a monster and still stretching, moved the light up a few inches. Buds are just starting to show at Day 10, should be a nice haul off this one

Thanks and cheers, lots of activity in the garden right now
Just saw your post, very nice quality on that AoS and good call on a second unit/tent. Will be interesting to see how the Phantom unit stacks up against the Sun Systems. Maybe a side by side thread

A side by side would be a great experiment, but I'll be running different strains in each of my 3 tents, at least for now. Between the Headband, Grape Ape, GDP, Gorilla Glue #4, Pre-98 Bubba Kush, and Sunset Sherbert; I've got a lot of different girls to get acquainted withThanks and cheers, lots of activity in the garden right now

Yeah priorities first, some nice gear on that list and you should see a lot of it coming up with two of those running!A side by side would be a great experiment, but I'll be running different strains in each of my 3 tents, at least for now.

LED Tent Blue Ripper F1 stud getting ready to pollinate a Blue Ripper F1 fem (batch of F2's) in the back-right corner and Harlequin front-right. Hoping to get some more production from that Harlequin and maintain a high CBD level. Both have some great flavours/smells, could be a tasty mix Will move both pollinated fems into the flower room once they're pollinated and sprayed down.
That'll make room for 1 of each of the 2x Blue Ripper female F1 phenos. Will be selfing both for some S1 fems to have a backup of these 2 phenos if the MJ gods cooperate
Cheers

Cheers @TheChemist77 this batch of F2's is to get enough seeds to send out some testers. The S1's of those phenos will take a while as I'll have to grow the pollen, then pollinate/flower the 2x phenos, cure etc.
