After getting bunk seeds from Pacific seed bank, then vegging a plant 8 weeks only to discover its a male, Im back with new plants and a new light.
I wanted to make a grow journal this time around more so as a record of feeding and watering, but i welcome any feedback or advice.
Ill start with my setup
Tent is a 20x36x63 inches i know its an odd size and it has been my biggest challenge as well. I wanted a tent that could fit inside my closet with the door closed for stealth. Looking back should've probably got a square tent. But that will be my next purchase...
My light is the new viparspectra xs2000
It runs the Samsung lm301b diodes with mean well hlg series driver around 240actual watts on a dimmer running 80% right now for veg at distance around 20 inches
I will be adding either the hlg 60 supplemental flowerring light or some red emerson effect light strips very soon.
My exhaust is the ac infinity 4in inline, also have an ac infinity raxial series can fan for intake but haven't needed to install yet as im running 86 f with the tent closed and only passive air intake..i also took off my terabloom 4x16 in carbon filter ill use it during flower of the smell become too much.
I have one flip on fan running at canopy level and another 8 in box fan cooling the light above.
Im running 4 plants in ffof soil with added perlite around 30% in 3 gallon square fabric pots
I wont be scroging but i have been using bonsai wires for LST..
My strains are Banana og, purple Lamborghini, strawberries n cream, cherry pie... the banana og and purple Lamborghini were rooted 2 weeks before cherry pie and s&c. Around September 27 or so. With the cp and s&c about 10 or 12 days later.
The banana og got fried after i left the mars hydro ts600 about 12 inches away and the roots dried out but now shes back to reaching skyward
Im using distilled water phd 6.3/6.8 with 4-5ml of calmag and feeding the purple Lamborghini at 1/2 tsp of cultivation nation veggie per week after nothing slight N deficiency. The others just started getting 1/4tsp per feeding top dressed. Ive got Epsom salt too. Havent used it yet. Used great white mycorrhizae during transplanting. I will be flipping to 12/12 after i get my red spectrum supplemental lights ordered.
Will be updated with pictures regular also will be taking clones for a 2x2 im getting this week.

Im loving the light so far honestly i dont have enough experience as my only other to lights are a cheap led clip on for my bonsai and jade plants , and a Mars hydro ts600 which ran hotter at only 90 actual watts than my viparspectra at 80%

First glance , overwatered and heat stress
I did give the purple Lamborghini more water since shes bigger but i always clear the runoff right away shes in a fabric pot and i always make sure it dry up to my second knuckle, i was under the impression its hard to over water with the fabric pots, but i will keep better track of time between feeding and watering. I already turned the lights back to 75%

Gonna pick up another clip on fan for that side of tent i think you hit the nail on the head because i noticed that side had almost no movement because the 3 other plants blocking the fan

Thursday November 5th. Purple Lamborghini fed 1/2 ro water 1/2 tap at 200ppm. Ph6.7 Along with 1/4 strength top dress of foxfarm cultivation nation veggie. Seems to be doing better. Also rearrange my fans for better air flow and raise my pots off the ground after watering so the fabric pots can dry out on the bottom.

Went ahead and gave the banana og and cherry pie 4ml calmag ro water ph 6.3 along with 25% feed. Cherry pie looked like she was droopy a bit when the lights came back on, raised all pots off the ground
