I got on the AC infinity amazon page and got the smallest fan they had. I think I have the solution to my low humidity and getting things adjusted.
Instead of the fans on the outside blowing at the vent hole, I have this on one of the extenders to add as a second level once they get old enough to start hardening off.

I figure I can use that fan even with the vents closed just to move a little air, maybe work that sturdiness part of hardening before the rH part. Except for testers I will be running fewer plants and looking at bigger pots. Probably shifting back to full size cups so I gan get them larger before transplant.

The Tardis is the first of that batch to start turning (back left), and I have puffballs on the manifold so it got it's last pruning.
Anything that has it's own nodes and some stretch goes - which is just the lower 8
The manifolds are perfect for flower clones, I could have started a few of these, and a few from the last round right after the pistils popped.
When I get to re-running my favorites that might be my preferred method to get some bulk. A manifold for the first plant then a clone or three to get bulk. .

16 days in. About two weeks to flip then another week to ten days to show. Only 3 real stragglers and one is the mutant.
Staying pretty compact, getting about 30k on the lumenometer.
I can fit these six 5g pots in the closet so I am going to prep them today and reset everything. I might have to cull girls depending on space but I have a few other pots I can prep in case there is space. These have been getting leftover water from the other plants including any junk I had in the water so they should be pretty good.

They have a pretty wide selection, you really have to dive into the size and CFM because they mostly look the same.

Just a regular vato

Just some onions and aloe now. Most of that green was cover crop

Watered the babies and rearranged the rest. I have had some misses, but overall the stuff I got from SHN that made it to flower all look promising. The SSHPxBaguettes in the middle is the only non SHN plant here.
This is the tent that will empty first except forn the manifold and the lone plant from the last drop (Chocolate Thai Zkittles), The Tardis is ripening quick, the BCL is getting there but still not a lot of amber.
The Orgi has more new pistils than old, so it's going long unless it nanners. Gonna keep hitting it with molasses or sugar to see what happens.

Nothing much happening. The BCL and cactus Orgi are both getting more funky. The BCL is just gettin a little more dank than sweet, but the Orgi now has an amonia/smelling-salts/cat-piss thing going on.
I realized that taking these to the living soil 5g pots from a one gallon would be a hot mess trying to keep any cover crop or anything in tact. pretty much no point. It'll be easier just to dump and re-pot.
I kept thinking starfish for the 5-blade-thing, but it's actually like the design on a sand dollar.

Tester update for @J.James - not really contest stuff. The arrangement is #1-5 of each per row, then #6 in the front. #6 of each was the runt of the 6.
The Other One is the most impressive overall, This One are all normal and just a bit smaller in stature.
That One has a little wavy-curly leaf thing on every plant except the mutant.

Outdoor Garden 2022
The only real spot I have so far because of tall ancient oaks and hickories is about a 10'x15' area that has a giant oak stump about 6' diameter ground down to the previous ground level in the lower right corner. That's the low side, so I am using the upper part by the bird feeder to compost stuff. Lots of bird and squirrel shit in the compost pile
I'll pull that stuff down to the stump corner and get about a foot of dirt above it when everything's level. All the furry oak branches that fall get stuffed in. I get oak and hickory leaves about 2" thick everywhere but they take a year or more to break down. I have a huge maple that drops the leaves early, and they all got mowed up and dumped in before the other stuff fell.
The greenage is the buildasoil cover crop blend. I chucked a handfull a few months ago to see if anything would make me some seeds before I chop it. I mowed a strip down to see what happened. I'll definitely be using a cover crop around the garden this time instead of weeding.
One thng I did for feeding this is get a bag of "deer corn". $5.99 for a 50lb bag of generic seed-corn with no coatings or treatments. I test sprouted a jar full and it had a high germ rate, so I think it is for planting as well as feeders. After about 4 days it has tails and is soft enough for a blender. 2oz of seeds will make a 5-gal bucket worth of food. And you can strain it and feed the pulp to the worms inside or out.

The lady bugs just chilling by those glorious nuggets of space cabbage is a really nice touch H.A.F. Beautiful pics man!

So far it looks like 2 out of 3 of my Lemon Slush X Baboon Wine are going to be males. While that sucks a bit I am about to have 2 open spots in that tent and I think I am going to put 23 Day old H2 in there with BCL2 and the last LSBW if it turns out to be female. Not exactly a right to 12 12 stress test but I might as well and see what happens.
