This grow has gone from feral to being renamed Ballroom Blitz. If you don't know why, Spotify it

The tent was flipped to 12/12 on 9-17-20 after a fairly long veg for the area I'm working with - a 2 x 4 x 5' tent in my duplex garage.
A 4" exhaust fan and charcoal filter, a couple of inexpensive dual-switch 600w LED lights that are actually about 200w at the wall, give or take.
There are four 5-gallon containers that are getting kinda crappy to move. They are clones from my first grow that I couldn't bear to throw away. One is a CBD Crop Doctor and 3 are likely Irene Apricot, but the stuff will take the top of your head off and make you forget where you put it down, lol.
There are also two FBL autos in 1-gallon containers. Both are 29 days since sprout.
Hoh-lee FunkyButt! Decided to rearrange one last time. Pulled the 1-gallon containers to the front since they are easier to move. The Lemon Skunk auto finally showed me her pistils yesterday, a full 10 days after her tent-mate, the FBL Lemon Skunk x Strawberry Cheesecake. I chose to grow these two without training them at all because I want to know what they're gonna do without being LST, topped, bent, folded or otherwise spindled. Both are about the same height, but one is much bushier. Both got a a crispy leaf. Doesn't seem to have bothered them at all. They are on 12/12 because that's the kind of place we're running here...a small one, lol.
The photos have started to climb. I decided to stop intermittently snipping on fan leaves I deemed in the way and just let them do it. I'll get a better idea of exactly what is throwing shade in the next two weeks or so. I want to defoliate one more time - week 3 post-flip to 12/12. I wanna leave just enough for them to be healthy. Having two lights has turned out to be helpful, since its way easier to raise a light than a 5-gallon container. The autos will be much easier to handle in regards to the light. The risers are half-gallon mason jars.
If Homer Laughlin saw me watering my pot plants with a 60-year old coffee pot, he'd turn over in his grave. One of the other myriad branches of my life is a love of antique pottery.
Except we use it - not necessarily for the use it was originally designed. So I'm using a Golden Wheat coffee server - the lid is safely in the house - to water my plants exactly where I want the water to go. My live mentor/BFF said, "Get a pump". I said, "Have you seen me fill our Britta? I think an electric pump is a bad idea." This coffee pot fits right in the 5 gallon bucket of pH-ed water I got my new water boy to take to my indoor garden. I'm no longer drooling water everywhere that I later gotta clean up.
Another really important thing, my growing friends who are new to indoor cultivation, is keeping your grow area tidy, no matter its size or location. Even if the rest of your habitat is a yard-sale, keep your grow area clean. A lot of us already have mobility challenges. Don't make it harder on yourself by leaving a puddle you later slip in and bust a move. Don't set shit down where you are gonna trip over it.
Keep a roll of paper towels handy. You don't want extra wetness anywhere in your area. Keep your cords up. Don't use Grandma's good crockery to water your plants. I get mine at the Goodwill, lol.
Mother Nature is still shooting out the lights and tossing stuff around outdoors. With my indoor sanctuary, I've ceased to care.
And I'm thankful for the carbon filter because those little FunkyButtLovin autos are already stinkers

OMG the mistakes i made i never told LOL. I love to McGyver and to see others reuse to make it happen. From looking down on them you are full. They may be fine at 16" you could bend the branch do super crop. Squeeze the branch enough to crush and bend to make it floppy these branches will amaze you on how much energy they put towards the tops of the colas. If you need the head space. Otherwise they look like they love you.
