I’ve experienced some serious RH changes this fall…typical southern weather 80 degrees and humid one day and 45 degrees and low humidity the next day. I have a 5 gallon catch bucket hooked to my dehumidifier and it’s overflowed 2 times in my absence. Love this hobby

Hobby? Hell, I lived 40years as a “worker” to get to do this.
Continued employment was contraindicated with THC relationship.
PHD in grow desired, hopefully supported by longer living (happiness?).

Attempting to mitigate lung room sunlight heating (May-Nov) induced issues.
Need portable dual hose AC/Heater for correction $600.00 ouch - Tent RH Lights ON 50-70RH lights OFF 60-70
- NO AC (big bummer) Dehumidifier resident in adjacent, dual connected duplicate 4x4x6.5 tent, utilized as my HASHA (Heat and Storage Heat Apparatus) . Same unit provides secondary DE humifying for lung room and adds temperature into HASHA for GROW/Lung benefit. 2x2x5 tent inside available for dry tent, maybe.
- AC-Infinity Cloudline Controlled system.
Grow tent has one T6 un-filtered exhausting into attic.
Grow tent has one T6 Filtered exhausting into lung room (heat and filter for lung room).
Grow tent has controllable A6 exhausting into HAHSA (for dehumidifying grow & lung).
HASHA has controllable A6 exhausting (return to grow tent, dehumanized air and heat). - No CO2
- Growing experience, yes.
Successful, to be determined. PHD desired, currently and understudy. - $$ Budget, BLOWN x 3 or 4times. CHINA CHEAPIES purchase cost once,
Second amount wasted on electricity with grow issues and fair results.
Third amount spent on replacement for quality and electricity friendly LED lights.
Tuition for living life, priceless. Good weed & happiness, priceless.
Long term activity, Medical licensed grow and use with a hobby, priceless during COVID.

“T6 Filtered exhausting” is correctly T6 Exhaust into good AC-I Filter.
and
“grow tent, dehumanized air” should have been finger-fudged-translated to dehumidified HASHA return air.to grow tent.
Fingers getting great practice with joint rolling machine.

Daylight Savings time. Mark time on my mark.
Lights going 1800-1159 ON for 18/6 starting today.
All five seedlings, still alive.

Anticipation growing.
Mrs. Daisy wants to visit the mall, around Turkey time.
You’re still invited to the Island for consult and share.

I thought i read that autos couldn’t be cloned??? Or maybe it was the veg cycle wasnt long enough to be beneficial…?

I am sure I read the same, yes, thanks.
That would explain failures without me taking failure personally, ut I still do.
Still try or smoke the failure.
Just takes one to begin the fun.

An auto has a pre-defined life time. Yes, you can take a cutting at say 4 weeks and clone it, but it’s gonna flower same time as donor plant…if it has the time to root and veg.
I probably could have cloned my Medgom auto, she’s gone over 200 days so far, will probably chop her next week at around day 225. Stupid auto 
. Even flipped her to 12/12 when we got back from Sri Lanka and put her in the tent, just to make sure!

@noddykitty1 Blueberry seeds (2021?) in water (H2O/O2) for 2-days.
Five tails have appeared.
FFHF and Warrior Seedling soil used for solo cup starting.
Clear cups have drain holes and are sides split for easier removal.
Clear cups house in red solo cups.
All five ILGM Maui Waui seedlings standing above soil in solo cups.
All have cotyledons and next set of leave.
Domes for seedlings 50% of the time (breathing).
Tent becoming easier to balance with temps cooling.
PNW forecast Dry today, maybe. Rain for the next 6 days.
I have one remaining WW outdoors. Two or three Rot buds removal daily, but she still needs another month growing…

First and foremost, my thanks to all who served or supported those who have.
Nobody knows your sacrifices, but this I know to be true,
“All gave some and some gave all”.
DDD gardening update for 11-11-2023
Two solo-cup seedlings were re-potted, into 3-gal bagged soil (FFHF,FFOF, Warrior Seedling starter mixed with Bigfoot Mycorrhiza). Bag One had a clone, up-rooted, removed, and given solo-cup residence (better performance or highway to smoking). Bag two had two previous plants re-veging in outdoor residence, from May 2023, early harvested and relocated from PNW November outdoors flooding to tent 11/1/2023). PNW weather Fall 2023 was not good for immature or late bloomers. I know these were from ILGM sourced seeds for Gold Leaf and Maui Wowie, from Feb 2023 planting and harvested in May 2023).
Stripping for re-veging, must have been too much or too late for one looks dead and the other might get lonely, so I re-potted a second ILGM Maui Wowie seedling (11-1-2023).
The re-potting was not gentle and TBT, was a painfully poor performance from the garden guy (me). The V3Pro vape pen may have been contributing to the soil dispersion mess, yet to be cleaned. With roots showing (clear solo) and I wanted an early start (first pair leaves, above cotyledons, both less than an inch in length, early for sure).
Speaking of the V3Pro vape pen, it sure needs recharging often, using 4 minutes, 400F, and 3 burns per load. The smoke is different, for sure. No paper, sulfur, or butane tastes. The buzz is there but source material is suspect for being weak (my early harvested immature summer grow).

Damn, did a botch job again. Finally figured out why.
"New mix of “Light” seedling solo cup soil does not hold together, like previous heavy soils used. I do have long scissors, fortunately.
Spare batteries for the XMAX V3PRO vape pen and load capsules ordered.

We really enjoyed that Persian Mix, Afgahn was the winner, Pure Indica, then the Hindu only reason the Hindu was last is that it is kick you ass to couch and sit down high, but it has a purpose in the lineup, Pure Indica proved to be the most tough and resistent plants of all, Hindu and Afghan was seceptible to Bud rot had to keep eyes on them 1/2 way through flowering, Indicas where last to chop they are tough ladies for sure. I grew outdoors

@Labweed posted on forum his grow using non-traditional lights ON lengths.
Tempting to follow a leader in Hyperspace, having a clear path is essential.
I drive I-5 using same technique. In the early 80’s, follow the leader worked great on I-10 from Lake C to Lafeyette, @100mph, when the oil company paid for the gas.
Turned OFF de-humidifier in HASHA, for tonight, maybe.

23-ON with 13-OFF= 36 hour day for a cycle.
