We have 30 Cindy 99 clones and 2 mothers. They are vegging for 1 week (just enough to get some roots going and strong enough for the HPS), then flowering. We have limited vertical height and its a sativa.

The room with the TW in 3 gallon square pots has an ambient temp of 70* F. Its beautiful. Nice and dry too. There is a ton of airflow and a 16" oscillating fan and a fan to keep air circulating around the pots. They go about 4 days between waterings. The soil is 50% Foxfarm Ocean Forest, 35% Perlite (the Ocean Forest already has 10%), and 15% of our own worm castings from our compost piles.

Were having a little trouble with our mother room at the moment. The temps have gone up significently over the last few weeks in the room, but not outside. So were not sure what is happening (probably just not enough airflow through the cooltube). So were either going to give it a 6" inline fan, or were going to double up the squirrel cages so they both are pulling. I personally dont think that will work but my roommate does. The temps are not bad but we are watering the plants almost twice a day, also because most of them are still in 1 gallons and are very rootbound. Tomorrow space opens up for flowering some of the mothers so we can transplant the rest into 3 gallons as we can only fit about 12 3 gallon pots in the room and we have 22 plants in there right now (partly mothers, partly new clone).

The Cindy 99 are a difficult plant to get started. They are not very woody and the stems are rather small. This seems to be the case with most C99 I have seen. Ive been keeping a lot of them outside and they are finally starting to strengthen up. This weekend they go under the HPS, but probably in indirect light at first.

I just want to mention that I have been EXTREMELY impressed with the 600 watt Digital HPS systems. I can literally lay my hand on the glass. There is no heat on the back of your hand, 1" away from the glass!!!!!!! If you havent read my other updates, both hoods are pulled with a single 700 cfm Vortex fan. To get the light pattern we want, we had to pull the lights a little farther away from the canopy then I normally like. However, because there are so many lumens with the digital (almost as many as a normal 1000 watt), we are still getting good node spacing and the only stretch we have is from when the outside plants outgrew the flurescents during veg.
