Indoor Badfinger's 2023-24 Fall, winter, spring, grow.

[Badfinger]

Hi my fellow stoners. This grow season I'm going to start by finishing up my pack of Jean-O's Rootbeer Float S2 beans, in 7gal. pots of FFHF soil.
This season I will be using my new 2x4 Spider farmer tent, actual tent size is 28 x 54, and my new SP3000 Mars Hydro light, with a compliment of the UR45 UV/IR light bars. My new AC Controller 69 Pro with a new T7 AC humidifier on the outside of the tent.
The humidifier is massive over kill, just perfect for the sob who's to lazy to carry jugs of water.
The goal is to put a lot more emphasis on VPD this first grow. This year I'm going to try a bit of Recharge with my feedings and Dropsofbalance in my water.

This grow season's preliminary plans are to do 3 grows of two plants each.

Jean-o's RBF S2
Meph's Orange Biscuits
Jean-o's RBF F4
I normally finish up my season by mid May, but if time allows, maybe squeeze a 4th grow in and go til mid summer.

My 2 week update.
Looks like I got me a wee lil runt on my hands, we'll see were she goes. To keep my grow schedule, I dont want to start another seed to replace her.

6 weeks
I have been using Recharge every two weeks and DropsOfBalance with every watering.
RBF is going into flower 6wks old, switched feed last week to Flower Girl. Also LST clipped the main cola, it was getting way ahead of the rest of the flower sites.
Orange Biscuit is 2 weeks old, seems to be doing fine.

I don’t fault you for pulling the runt…you never know when they’re little. I had this guy I almost pulled on Day 23 when it was only 2” tall…and I just supercropped it, after multiple prior prunings, when it was 53 Days old and the main cola was 40” from the soil :

Your current two look really good where they're at ! Where have you had the SP3000 distance and dimmer?

I always grow using DLI and the Photone app, so I presently have my light at 18" and roughly around 75%. I definitely need the light meter app to guide me, cause I have noticed my SP3000 dimmer switch gets sensitive right around the 75% mark on the dial, Hugh High/Low Lux fluctuations.
I'm presently reading 44-46 DLI. This DLI will be my goal the rest of this grow.
I did not take the decision lightly to pull the runt, but I have a set time frame I can grow, and how much smoke I need to produce, until my next grow season.
