Leetdood's growing struggles

For now, it's only one more plant left to transplant
Going to put bulbs in and set new schedule after I do that last transplant. Then these plants need an immediate sulfur treatment and I will need to water, cut back, and figure out how to treat all the other plants immediately.
But things are getting there. Tahoe, HiRo3, and Bubba lined up then Dragon Hammer on the dirt bin.
Going to locate both AnB, sanitize the plastic pot I emptied and cleaned, and pick one to cut back and transplant for flower.
Not happy with how the PM is spreading but I've learned I can only tackle one task as a time. So I'm going to continue getting on top of these plants and cleaning and then treat them. The ones going into the new flower run will get treated immediately.

GMO x2 day 85
War Crimes Court: leetdood do you have anything to say for yourself?
Me: I was just trying to grow headstash for myself, I swear. I never meant for it to get this far.
Gotta clean more leaves off
Mini trays arrive today
Continuing to cut back and feed etc
2x400 watt hps bulbs installed. More orange and warm than I'm used to, but they turn on.
Gotta make sure everything's ready for gmo wash
The specific reason/area I pulled it on day 76
Sometimes I don't enjoy posting these mistakes or failures, in this case I should've had an oscillating fans to prevent hot spots
But at the same time, I want to be honest and let others see how they can avoid this issue
If you don't see it, look for the white fuzz in the middle. That's a no bueno
I received those 20 mini clone trays by the way. So I'll be attempting to transfer the domed clones to those over time as the clones allow.
Plants are overwhelming me a bit but I just stick to "chunking" and do what my body or spirit allows. So I just stick to making progress. After I process and freeze the GMO plants the tent will be cleaned and the new plants moved in, but on 18h veg for a few days to ensure they're all doing well and to ensure I've properly treated the PM etc. Tahoe also looks upset about wet feet and not having the light on for a while. So I want to make sure she recovers and roots into that 15 gal and not rush into a bad start. She's a robust and strong plant but she really doesn't like wet feet.
Dragon hammer, also going in along Tahoe, just got a thorough watering. I have to give her a thorough check over because she really likes to stack nodes and grow everywhere, but she's looking like she'll bounce back fast with the root science container. She was pretty rootbound and needed the extra leg room, but the plastic(?) mesh lets her dry out at a decent speed. Not sure if i mentioned it but I'm gonna try for the small container with rapid drybacks and frequent fertigation thing, see if I can really push it, or if it'll turn out horribly.
Not much else to report, just the usual sisphyean tasks of watering and cutting back. But making progress especially with the clones, and looking forward to washing gmo.

Getting a lot done, not much to note
The plastic pot I transplanted AnB to wasn't that much bigger. I had to soften the edges of the root ball to make it slide in on top of the media in the new pot. It has a pretty good root system going, plant needs to be cut back but I've transplanted and watered it.
Haven't pulled gmo yet, just finished prep for that. Gonna do that after I eat.
Gonna clean the tent and try and move the plants in as soon as the bleach airs out if possible. Then I'll have even more space to work in.
Continuing to clean everything as I go where possible. Need to begin prep for washing after cleaning the tent and moving plants in. That's why I was busting ass on the watering and cleanup.
Will post pics if possible. Trying to focus on getting things done and improving my situation.

Taking a brief break now.. split up the plant in sections to extract from the trellis since I'm processing it about... now. Lol
Good yield for 2 one gallon pots
Harvested near end of day 89. Almost day 90 but not quite!
Have outside area prepped to put tray(s) of flower to freeze
Gonna smoke a bit and watch a bit of Secret State, then back at it. Speaking of back, mine is a bit sore but not much left to do if I keep doing this good work.
Both plants did great even with the bugs and my amateur feeding.
Washing day 89 gmo is gonna be fun, but a lot of work! Good thing I made a roast and sides

New filters cut out and taped on the inline fan for the tent. This isn't a seed run, but it helps with my allergies anyway.
Tent is now up and running, gonna move plants in.
Catching up on watering etc as usual. But pretty happy with the takedown and reset. Learning things as always. Like everything goes a lot faster if I have a more clean and less cluttered environment so I continue to focus on that.
