I decided to just vent the rooms separately. I ended up getting an awesome deal on some used equipment and ended up getting a fan that's way more powerful than what I have in my flower room, so I'm gonna switch 'em out. I ended up going with four 600 watt sets for the new veg room.

I made one single 12 foot long shelf about 5 feet up and hung some lights from it as well, so I have two rows that are each 12 feet long with 1200 watts of light on each. We just need to put walls up and the ventilation stuff.

Right now, the plan is to put the clones into 1 gallon pots once they're rooted and keep them in the new veg room until they're about 18".

With this next crop, I plan to top 25%, top and supercrop 25% and do just LST on another 25%. The last 25%, I'm just gonna leave alone. I'll probably do this a few times until I figure out what works best in my space. The plants I just put into flower 5 days ago look amazing and it's the first time I'd done anything at all to attempt a yield increase. I topped and super cropped this batch and they look amazing. Super bushy.

I think I accidentally burned them by dropping my lights down too low, but I got rid of all the badly affected leaves and they don't seem to be negatively impacted at all. They're growing well and pre-flowers are all over the place. I'm really excited, I didn't think I would like growing as much as I do, but actively participating instead of just helping out and clipping, etc. is a lot more fun than I expected it to be.

I got a net too, because I'm tired of staking, etc. (though I did get some velcro stuff to connect the plants to the stakes and that is AWESOME!) but I can't quite figure out how to use the dang thing and still be able to water. The plants are in rows of 4 each and I have to walk into the aisle to lift the pots with both hands and see how dry they are. Not sure how to control water when I can't lift the pots. I'll probably post another thread about it if I can't find info in an existing one.
