Well that looks a bit more spacious! Have to say that germ closet is neat.

You could easily build your own. Its basically a kitchen cupboard with reflective insulation on the inside. It has a power strip secured and just uses a single CFL for germination

Update
Day 21

Transplanted all the ladies into their final homes.
Both Strawberry Blue plants went into 2.2g autopots and the other 2 ladies ended up in 3 gallon Rain science bags.

The two Straw. Blue ladies will be moved once they're a little older. They will be going under my yet to be used Growcraft X2 with added UV. The other 2 ladies are going to stay in the current space under my Diablo boards and hopefully fill most of it after training and patience.


The straw. blue ladies look great and perked right back up after transplant. The N.L. is looking fine as well. The A.K. x Skunk looks a little sad, but on the mend hopefully soon.

Day 29 Update

All the ladies have been topped. Two of them have very strange structure from it, but just wait, they always end up flourishing.

Currently they are on 18/6 schedule with intensities near 450ppfd. It's hard to see it in the picture, but there is a decimal point behind the 3rd number. Also, the measurement is in umols/meter squared/second. I doubt that is visible in the picture though.



Any thoughts, questions, or discussions are always welcome.

Finally got around to setting up my new Chilledtech X2. I remote mounted the driver on the wall behind the tent. I am extremely impressed with the light. Theres definitely no shade in the tent. It is the perfect dimensions for a 2x4 footprint. The fixture measures 19.5" W x 42.5" L. The ladder style fixture allows me to get my supplemental UV fixture right in the middle of it. Im planning on running the UV for 15 mins a day in the end of Veg to "harden" the ladies off. Once into flower I will run for 1hr everyday in the middle of the 12/12 cycle. Keeping the UV fixture roughly 18 to 24 inches away. Im running a single 2ft. T5 Agromax pure UV bulb.

Nice upgrades! Do let us know how you think the UV light works/helps. I'm quite curious.

Day 42 Veg Update

The NL x Big Bud is thriving and her structure seems really great. She is by far the best lady in the garden currently. The AK x Skunk Hero isn't far behind and doing great as well.

The two ladies in the autopots started out great, but have started to suffer recently. Idk if they're being overwatered because of the smaller 2.2 gallon pot, if they are suffering from Mg deficieny/lockout, or both. I suspect that MC has too much K in its formula and causes Mg to lock out if Ppm is too high. I used a sample chart that @Mañ'O'Green has posted before to draw a possible conclusion to their issue.
