I’ll do a quick break down of my set up. 4x2 tent. 4 cheap noname led amazon lights(74w a piece dimmable). 6 inch knock off A/C Infinity exhaust fan ( Very loud). 2- 6inch,open box, ebay score, air circulation fans. A set of 3 well used, 2nd hand, Octopots with all the caps missing. Finally, 3 modified fabric grow bags( 2- 7 gallon, 1-10 gallon)to fit the Hydro Wicks.

I promise to post pictures soon. Just getting things sorted!
My soil is Promix. Good old Red bag,buy at Walmart Promix. Only thing added to it is 30% Perlite and Mykos when up potting.
My Nutes are Jacks 321. Calcium Nitrate. Magnesium Phosphate.Potassium Silicate. Mono Potassium Phosphate for when in flower.
The water I use is 70% R.O. and 30% well water. Our well water has enough Calcium and Magnesium that there is no need for Calmag. I use the R.O because the well water is 400-1200 ppm solids depending on the water table. Ph is downed with diluted battery acid.

The genetics are from Doc D seeds by way of Colorado Sativas. Guess that would make them f2s. I’m a bread baker not a geneticist, so thats about as far as i know.Zang is suppose to be Vietnam Black (164 Kiona Cut) x A5 Haze/Thai BX.

2 of the 5 were boys. I didn’t want to breed. Just a bud run. These are the 3 girls left standing. My sister bought these for me for my birthday, so she got to name them.
Lola
Nancy
And Zoey
As you can see, all 3 girls look completely different.

Ha ha! I have returned! Guess I posted too much for my first day. Anyways.
Lola always looked unhappy indoors in the tent. Moping around like an emo teenager. I treat all my girls the same.Same feed, light, soil, ect.
So I chucked her outside into the high desert. I’ll see how she likes over 100° and 10% humidity. I plopped her in an Octopot with a 10 gallon fabric bag. The Octopot was buried a foot in the ground to keep the water reservoir cooler.
Zoey and Nancy were happily kicking it in the A/C. Not causing any problems at all.

You likely noticed the burnt tips on the girls in the above pictures. The Potassium Silicate and Mono Potassium Phosphate at the same time was too much for the ladies. Should have cut the Potassium Silicate going into flower. Oops.
