Indoor The Tent Of Deliciousness

[PeaceLove&Buds]

Giving the Tent of Deliciousness some upgrades. Self draining platforms work like a charm. The plywood squares are screwed to the buckets for sturdy little tables. Put a second piece of ply where drainage starts for a little extra draining angle. No glue needed for drain tubes so very easy to adjust if adding or moving plants around. Have parts for an 8 plant run but no more room in the bud fridge so I’ll run 2 and drop 2 more in a couple weeks and have 4 running til about November. Hooking up manifold and hoses today from first reservoir. I’ll always have plants at two ages and I feed on a specific weekly schedule so I will have two setups soon.
Grape Walker Kush and 24 Carat

Drain bases! I need those. Been using a DIY solution and this would be a lot easier. Are they from Floraflex?

Yes they are! The tubes cut very easily with a razor blade.

Well it’s 1am and I’m usually snoozing hard but around 10 I discovered my plants were ready to bag a day earlier than expected. I wanted to try a night owl nug around 8pm and it looked surprisingly ready so I stuck some in the rest jar and after two hours it was only 61%! Shit ton of bud though, biggest fattest buds I’ve ever seen in my life to be honest. The first SS was the smallest plant and was pulled over a week earlier and she got 124 grams. These last 4 badasses got her by about 40-50 grams! Considering my first grow averaged 3.5 ounces each, to have plants around 6 ounces gives me great joy. I was in a rush so I wasn’t snapping pics while cutting but after I cleaned my hands I got to weighing.
Almost 28 ounces between all 5 plants

Tare conveniently an ounce lol

Night Owl Outlier C 162 grams (5.7 oz)

Sour Stomper 171 grams (6.1oz)

Mephisto Fugue State 170 grams (6 oz)

Rocbud 164 grams (5.8 oz)

Topped after 5th node yesterday on the 19th day. Flora flex rig working great, which adds another item to the “why didn’t I do this earlier” list.

In the spirit of trying something new every grow, I topped the bottom nodes which in this case is the 2nd. Only on Grape Walker because of the open structure so far and it will be fun to see what happens from here.

Man, great harvest! What a nice improvement in weight. Your earlier plants didn't look too shabby either.

Thank you D, not having to chop the “lower third”of the plant because of the light exposure the training resulted in was huge. Happy to report that the larf was practically non existent and my lower third produced about 50grams per plant of fat delicious buds.

Replaced the trays with a hand cut to fit matrix tray to see how they work and I like the water displacement. My next run I’m going to try the pro pots and the trays will fit perfect.

I had 3 choices in a split second. Step on the dog, or save the plant and land on my face, or drop the plant and save the face.…the dog and my face will live to see another day but the plant we’re not so sure about. She broke apart really bad out of the fabric pot so I stuffed her remains and some more coco in a hard pot because it was easier. Very little damage above dirt because bottom of the pot landed first. Odds are high she’s a goner but it can’t hurt to try. She’d be leaning quite far over without the tie down.
