Why thank you, I really like your thread, too. The plants look better, any DIY pics immediately get my attention, and the thread title made me laugh 
This thread is mostly my vent so my poor ladyfriend doesn’t have to listen to my grow-related ramblings. She likes looking at the plants (when they’re healthy), and she’s pretty okay with the end result. To anyone who enjoys my ramblings, I give you a nod of affirmation.
I seem to have smoked something and melted portions of my brain, so I’ll try to be concise with this update and fail miserably.
The last remaining seedling of the summer has had a coming-out party and Apollo 11 #2 is… a girl. phweee. Anyway, after a string of shit luck (4 dead seedlings and 2 males), I now have 6 healthy females from 7 seeds. The only male was Nirvana Mystery Sativa that proved my homebrew seedlings starter was capable of supporting life – it served its purpose, and will soon be sacrificed to the worms to appease Weed Gods so they continue to smile upon me.
On the other hand, I now have more females than I have space, so I really need to get my veg tent back into working order. It’s going to be so hard to pick a guinea pig from a collection of healthy plants, but if I’m going to cull one of the Space Candy girls…
I guess I have a bit more hope for the veg tent now, as it’s no longer the peak of summer. Ambient temperatures are down by 10ºf, and relative humidity is up by about 25%. I do not trust the LED fixture anymore (but I got my $60 worth of entertainment), but improvements are coming… oh yes.
Anyway. It’s nice to have plants that drink like sailors, and grow like things that grow a lot. In August, I’d give these plants 250mL of water, once a week, and half of that would run through. In the past 3 days, the Chemdawg x Sunshine Daydream has taken 1.5 liters, no run-off. Yes, she needs to be repotted 
tomorrow…
Here’s my poor little Wreckage, comparing her in August to earlier this evening:
She’s actually healthier than she looks… the leaves are rather shiny Also, did you know that happy marijuana plants lay lemons?
