Chipmunks' 1st small pot auto grow, Timber!

Autum has set in and lots of chlorophyl is on the way out and she was looking tasty. So, when I chopped her down, she almost fell on the house, wee doggies! That's ganja stoner humor and Homer made me do it. Anyway, I used an approximate 1 gal DIY air pot. 3 gal has been the smallest pot used to date One of these days I will do all my grows in DIY air pots. For me they have worked better than fabric pots and easier to clean. This plant was 18in tall, grown under a SF S3000 grow light and 24hr lights on. 9 wks from seed to harvest. The plant is a Mephisto freebie- forum stomper x sour crack. It's a typical Mephisto plant with good structure and heavy nugs from top to bottom, Mephisto rocks! I imagine I will get close to 3oz from her. This plant was also a seedling twin and has a bud site with 2 tops. I have never had both those things happen at the same time to just 1 plant. Thanx for checking it out! N

Thanx all, hope you enjoyed the humor! I don't do so well with picture posing. When I cut her down 1 of the branches broke off caused by the bud weight and me chopping her down. That's the reason more or less for not having a good picture of her structure
 
I want to suggest to any newbie that hasn't decided on a grow tent and light and is wanting a small to medium yield. In my lung room I have 3 tents, 2 of which are 32in x 32in and a SF S3000 300 watt grow light in each. That's over 40 watts/sqft. Either a Spider Farmer or Mars Hydro S or G series 300 watt is the perfect footprint for the 32x32s. That's wall to wall straight down light coverage. Even though these lights are made for a 36in x 36in I think you get better cover using them in the 32in tents. My other tent is a freebie 2ft x 4ft and I have a 480 watt grow light there but only use about 400 watts; that's 50 watts/sqft. Oh, I do have a 2ft x2ft that I used for seedlings but now I have a piece of plywood over the top of it and it's now my work bench with storage underneath. Happy days to all!
 
I might as well describe my lung room. It's a 10ft x 10ft room I built in the basement that enjoys my house AC and heating ducting. I have a below ground level window that I removed the glass from and replaced with plywood that has 4 exhaust fans mounted to it. 1 exhaust fan draws from the 2 32in x 32in tents another fan draws from the 2ft x 4ft tent. The other half of the window has the other 2 fans that can move air in and out of the lung room. And I have a dedicated electrical service that I ran to the grow room. That's about it
 
And another thing, I have removed all the grow light ballasts from the lights, and they now sit on top of my tents, for heat control. I had to splice longer wire on my larger light in order to make that work
