6 weeks

I started an eight-plant perpetual flower tent this year in my four by eight. I add two plants every two weeks and plant two seeds in my veg tent, hopefully this will work even with randomly picking my strains out of my box of seed bags. I have a wine cooler setup as a dryer that I can normally fit two or three plants in depending on training methods used, this is where the two-week period comes into play as that seems to be the time it takes to dry down in my cooler.

First picture is Green Apple Candy; second picture is a Cheetah the Hut. Both were clones and are on day seven of flower and have had the lower internodes removed on day one of flip. Third picture has another Green Apple Candy on the left and a Blood Moon on the right, they both were added today. I was worried they would be to a-typical and were all topped once, this practice may or may not continue in the future depending on how crowded things become. The other side is setup just like this side sans plants, a little opening to walk in and do whatever work needs to be done. L shape for three plants and two in the very middle.

Last picture is of my veg tent a one and a half by three-foot tent. Two purple rim ready to go in the next cycle. A green apple candy clone, and a two-week-old Biscotti seed. As well as a Fortune Cookie by Humboldt and a Gopher Glue by Atlas seeds that got planted today.

All plants are in 2-gallon fabric pots with coco coir and sit on tables I 3d printed and have drain lines going to a condensate pump. Everything is being feed Athena products on half gallon emitters, Blended line only on veg until I am out then all will be on their Pro line. Thanks to Multiverse Beans and a couple other select breeders I have over a hundred strains and enough beans for a decade or more with this setup without ever having to clone again.

Edit: Plants have only been in flower since March 29th, not the 22nd I had my notes wrong, and checked my cameras. Hopefully the plan still works out.

I’m about to flip to flower any day now. Wondering when to and how much to defoliate.
