So is that why different gorw rooms make different looking product with the same genetics and nutes?

Yes, temperature and light intensity could both be different, as well as other environmental parameters, all having an influence.

Sometimes the product is similar in quality but almost like a different strain (the lvpk I grow has surprised me that way at least)

Good Morning @macgyver_stoner, I found a very disturbing thing this past Saturday afternoon as I’m fighting higher temps outside I decided I’ll take the 3 - 1500 watt HPS off line in the flowering room. Well, the bad news is they were on. Meaning the light cycle is 11pm to 11am. I don’t know just about how long the flowering room was running 24 hours of light. But we just caught this about two weeks ago about two hours after the light cycle and corrected it.
My Question ( which probably answers its self) is this
Will it cause Foxtailing???

Before I forget if you do see pollen sacks I have heard you can spray the plants down a cpl times a day to minimize the pollens ability to become airborne;) (unless you have high risk of mold )

I have an update to Show how this Beautiful Living Soil is doing.
These two girls were planted from day one into this soil mix.
I now call them our Twins. Planting two of the same breed together will help form Mycorrhizae.
They have been watered only up till the 4th of July. I gave the their very First Tea.
1/4 cup each Fish n Bone Meal for the worms and microbes in our soil. This will help with the balance of g/b bacteria. Worm casting n acids to provide a richer uptake of nutrients within the soil.
With out further a due.
The Twins @ 7 weeks old.


The soil has provided for these girls with day one.

Okay quick update. I shielded the plants with HO2O, and started to harvest the first half yesterday. We let the plants dry up in the soil before chopping down. Why you ask ? Good question. A gallon of water weighs in at 7 lbs. hmmmmmm
Hoping that letting them dry out can reduce the curing time. We must see.
The biggest buds were broken down to prevent mold.


These girls Trichomes were about 30-40% Amber.

We kept some of the Very tops together.

And with bowl trimmer n two of us, it still took 4 hours. Very very sticky buds. Here is the beautiful piece-

Umm umm umm we going have fun. Maughahahahaha
