Grow Mediums CoCo flood LED PurpleLights (NLxPurple Kush)

Well checked them last night and cut the water after a final flush from the top. I also cut the lights out and gonna cut them in about a hour or so. I'll try to get some natural light shots of the buds. Can wait to see what the weight is!! Here are some pics from yesterday!!
Just realized that you can't see the wet weights. They were 78,126,163. I was nervous with the first one but the other made up for it. I'm not sure about my goal weight after these numbers but hopefully they dried out a little and I won't lose as much during the dry time.
Ok well i couldnt finish up all of them yesterday so i cut the other 6 and hung them to dry and then trimmed them today. So the weights are not fresh cut wet weights but I brown bagged the other 3 and weighed them as a comparison to kinda guess how much they actually weighed if they were fresh. So the other were 55,54,20,45,56,84. The first three were 55,103,140 after the bag. Kinda crazy they all dropped 23g in a night. Just realized that. Ill assume that since they were on the tree they only lost 20g each. Which puts me at about 800g wet. I usually get about 75% so that "should" give me about 200g.
Not really what I was expecting but i have a few reasons why:
1. I had my AC blowing on the plants on the end that had they lowest weight. Im thinking the cold air might have stunted their growth. I have plans to move my table next go around.
2. I have 2 things with the COCO bag im thinking. After i cut i noticed they were REALLY wet still. I also noticed they were really bound up at the bottom. I could peel off a good 2" mat of roots LOL. You can see in the picture.
3. LIGHTS. Not enough from the 2 300w. The penetration was decent until about 16" down. ALMOST everything under that was fluffy and or not developed fully.
4. Humidity?? Im thinking that the humidity being 60-80 because of the flood had something to do with it also.
5. Maturity. They probably needed another week. Next run ill take them to 90 days.
Well ill have the weight in a few days and then i can start on anther set probably by next weekend. Thanks for checking it out and for the help.

Well i checked the girls today and they were pretty crispy with some nice snap on the stem. I cut them off the stems and jarred them up. Looks like its right at 167g or 6oz. Im not very happy with the results. I guess i expected more but looking at the picture after harvest i see where the problems were. Defiantly not enough light and im thinking the AC stunted them as said before.
Next go around im going with the mars reflector 720, same plant #, going to run the dehumidifier during flower, nuting the hell out of them from the start, and going with a more course coco with 2 gallon bags this time. Possibly considering the drip caps that were on the first or 2nd page of the journal. This isnt the last of me! Should see you guys in a few weeks!

Well im back at it boys and girls! I got 8 gurls going under my 600w HPS at 50%. I got my mars reflector series LED ordered. Its the 5x144 or 720W. It should be enough to cover what im looking for. Ill post some pics in a few
Well this time I'm going to go top fed DTW with coco cubes and hydroton on top to help displace the water. Right now in hand watering at 250ppm. There are 8 girls going in 2 gallon grow bags but only about 3/4 full. Hopefully everything works out this time. Here's some pics
These were from about 3-4 days ago. Pretty much right when they popped. They are working on their real set of leaves right now. More pics to come!!
