So now that my 4x8 tent is almost empty ive been thinking about how I can organize my area better!

Getting rid of the 4x8 tent and setting up a false wall seems like the obvious move to me!

Here is the basic layout of my madness!

I kind of think having a drying room bigger than my flower room is important to keep mold and shit down while i dry. When Iā€™m not drying buds I think it will make for a good space to stuff with my male plants.

You have 370 sqr ft. to work with, thatā€™s fantastic. :+1:
Depending on what you want to do, I would suggest thinking about adjusting your assigned areas.
Suggestion:
Swap veg for flower areas. (Bonsai mothers take up little room and donā€™t need much attention.)

Iā€™ve been thinking about a new setup for a year now.
Currently I thinking of a lung room (min. 12ā€™ x 10ā€™) with 4 4x4 tents in there, as well as a 2x4 cupboard.

2 tents will be flower only, 1 tent for mid and late veg, 1 tent ā€œboys/sex/miscā€
The cupboard will be 2x4 for cloning and seed starting & 2x4 for early veg

Unfortunately Iā€™m about 2 years out from doing it so until them itā€™s just ā€˜project planningā€™.

Flower rooms actually have more what i would call ā€œuseable spaceā€ than my veg area even though it is bigger.

Hard to explain exactly but there are too many utilities and stuff I need to leave access to.(Furnace,Internet box,Plumbing, pathway to flower room)

And the flower rooms are actual built rooms with insulation. The rest of the basement is unfinished concrete floors.

Funny enough i suspect someone built these ā€œFlower roomsā€ for the purpose of growing weed before we moved in. I assume one was a veg area and one was a flower room.

Well folks I just harvested the last 4 plants!

I noticed some bud rot on one of them. The one with the biggest buds. Not ideal! I donā€™t want to risk spreading it to the rest of my dry tent so what i did was throw that plant in the deepfreeze ill make hash with it.

The plant that was directly beside it I am drying in a different area. Not an ideal drying spot but Iā€™d rather keep it away from the dry tent just incase!

In the next few days Iā€™m going to take the tent down and give the whole area a real good clean. Moving forward i donā€™t think Iā€™ll be using a tent here as the area will be dedicated for veg only so blocking light is less of a concernā€¦

Id like to thank all of you for stopping by my thread and guiding me through this with your support!

Would I run Dr Greenthumbs Bubba OG again?
I think for its time 25 years ago this was probably some amazing stuff! With that said and the more im learning about breeding I donā€™t think the prices he charges are worth what he is currently selling.

So no I would not make another purchase from Dr Greenthumb :-1: But I do have some clones going of the bubba og. I will grow them out again just to see if i get similar results to my 1st grow with them.

Trimmed up that big sucker last night^ it dried faster than the rest of my stuff being out in the veg area.

Trimmed another plant this morning from the tent that has been drying for 10 days. Iā€™m kind of undecided on if they are ready to be trimmed yet or not. May do 1 or 2 more plants tonight then leave the rest for a couple more days.

The stuff i trimmed went into brown paper bags for a ā€œsweatingā€ process first time ive tried this also lol. Once thats done i will throw the buds into some grove bags.

I am very happy with how it turned out but at the same time, Iā€™m pretty confident I could do a better job running it again. The smell profile isnā€™t super appealing to me but the taste is pretty good with no cure. Right now Iā€™m on the fence of if itā€™s a keeper and something id want to keep growing.

LOL, Thatā€™s why I collect clones, first, you know you can dial them in better and second, you get a ā€˜do overā€™ for stuff like harvest time & curing.
Sometimes Iā€™ll run them up to 3 times (so far :laughing:) to make up my mind about them.

Wouldnt be fair to the plant to call it crap if itā€™s my fault for not growing it right!

My thought exactly! :rofl:

My scoring system puts 50% of the final score on the smoke test so I pay attention to getting that accurate.

Moving forward my biggest issue this run was the plants growing too tall! On my next go Iā€™m going to be swapping things to a SOG style. Also going to be ditching the hydroton clay balls. Nothing but net!

An increased plant count has been applied for! Soon Iā€™ll legally be able to grow 127 plants indoors.

Most of that plant count is simply to accommodate clonesā€¦ not going to do anything to crazy in the flower room.(yet :rofl:)

Finally got around to checking the dry weight!

738.8 grams! Enough for me until the next harvest couldnā€™t be more happy. That weight doesnt include the 1 plant that i made hash with either lol.(biggest plant iā€™d guess atleast a half pound on it)
