Ive looked at your grow several times and wondered damn, how can he avoid mold?!?! I hope i didnt jinx you. Maybe trying with a few less plants on the top floor next time? Or more aggressive defo on top.

One thing was that I've never allowed for one big cola to grow , but rather for smaller buds. I was batteling with smaller mold spots nearly every grow, just this round was kind of scarry and I thought I could loose it all. I think I can get that under control with few simple steps. I defo will start using covers for the pots as thats where a lot of humudity came from. 18 pots in such a small space is quite a lot. At day time exhaust fan is set at full speed in flower. Few tweeks here and there and it should be golden

Harvest day was on Fri/Sat @ day 45/46 of flower. As always with so many seeded plants it was a compromise and some could go for another few days.
Luckly after the mold was cut out , no more spots appeared, so managed to save most of the yield. Lost few nice buds tho :/
I weighed each plant one by one taking notes, so I would know which clones I want to run next. Picked best 5 and will run them on different shelves next run, to see where are they the most comfy. Some off the middle and bottom shelves have potential that I'll have to look into more.
Overall this run went well not counting the ventilation issues. Have to bump the nutes a bit earlier into the flower and let the pots to dry out a bit more between the feeds. New trellis will be installed shortly after clones will go into the big tent which should help managing plants.
Photos from just before the cut.

New upgraded ventilation.
Added third fan and variac controller. All 3 are now fixed and arent oscilating. I menaged to get them to sit a bit lowerthis way.
Two critical+ 2.0 ladies flowering in upper half of smaller (veg) tent. They are free draining to main waste tank. Need to connect the feed system (plug and play), not bothered to do it now. Im just hand feeding them once a day. Maybe if I decide to flower there full time I might do it then.

The variac is to control the circulation fans?
Why have I never tried that!
