Canopy temps are about 2 degrees higher then what the environment controller records. Right now they are staying about 83-84F. The burning on the plants is not really a temp problem but more a light problem. These 750 watt digital HPS lamps are more powerful then a conventional 1000 watt system and the hoods we are using just seem to really burn the plants. There are specific areas under each hood that burn the most and you can tell they are hot spots created by overlapping light from the hoods. This is the very reason why we are finally moving over to vertical lighting on the next grow. It is not the bulbs or the light from the bulbs burning the plants...it is the light reflecting off the reflectors that is burning stuff.

The lights are raised as high as they will go with 8 foot ceilings. A few of the plants are over 5 feet tall. I am pretty sure these big plants will yield more then a half pound each.

Hey there RacerX,

The smell is very controllable. We never really have a problem with smell since the room is sealed. The CO2 also seems to rob a little bit of the smell too which helps. We do however have a 5 foot tall Pristine Carbon Filter with an 1100cfm 10" fan on top in case things get a little too stinky. But it actually has NEVER been a problem for us. The last couple weeks get a little smelly but the way our house is setup, any smell is undistinguishable outside.

Before when we didnt use a sealed room, the smell was much easier to detect. The Carbon Filter is used as a scrubber, so it just scrubs the air inside the room.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I am mainly excited about the Diesel. I have a few clones saved as well. We plan on doing a big hydro room with the NYCD next, I can already tell the smoke will be to die for.

cut everything down today. Little under 8 weeks. Some turned out really nice, especially from the extra large plants. The rest turned out mediocre, with some bottom stuff getting seeded. Very crystally though.

Looks real good Razz ,
Curious about yield when you got it all dried . Root systems are crazy man , mine are like that-n- we had to add drain fittings for flood tables cause stuff quit recirculating .
Peace

Stunning colas, but it's the root shots that make me drool.

Have you considered a light mover of some sort to control the 'hot spots' you are seeing? That seems to be a simple and efficient solution.

Well, congratulations on a beautiful grow ~ SA
