Looking great man! I haven't been able to log in in a while due to a mix up but I've been watching man and I am glad your setup is working so well for you.

Them colas really fattened up in four days! You might get a better haul then last time. Did you end up dimming the lights down as you were saying you might?

I started flower with 750W and at week 2 plants were still praying to the light so I decided to try 900W again, which is what i'm using atm.
There's only a little bit of light stress in the Blueberry OG which is the tallest but nothing like what I saw in my last grow. Probably the switch from HPS to LED caused a big stress on them. I did LED's from veg to flower in this grow and plants responded really well to 900W of LED's at this stage compared to my last grow.

This is very impressive, and informative! Those plants are mighty!

Hey, awesome build!

How long did you veg them? Are they from clone? What is your total grow time?

And what do you prefer? DWC or soil? What do you call "organic"? Organic soil? How many liters of soil? I'm currently thinking about trying hydroponic... Is your system DIY? Do you recommend it? How often do you change the water of your DWC? Do you use the same DWC bucket from seed to harvesting?

Again, beautiful plants & build!

Likely epigenetic factors are morphing your plants to acclimate to the high light. If you bred those bitches you'd make beautiful LED-tuned babies. High-light/CO2 tolerant genetics are an undervalued resource.
Your garden is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Veg:
2 months from seed, DWC
3 months from seed, soil

Organic correspond to soil and nutrients (I'm currently using BIOCANNA complete line with some extra additives and compost tea).
Approx. 20gal of soil in each pot.
My DWC is a DIY bubbler and I will be moving to a RDWC system in my next grow.
DWC is by far the best option for growing indoors.
I change water once a week atm.
I started witl 5gal bucket and at some point i moved the plant to a 12gal bucket.
