I really did not want to re-write my grow journal so I thought a brief summary would do...
 
Grow Area: Lower level closet. Size is 3 1/2 feet by 4-1/2 feet by 9 feet. Roughly 12 sqft . Louver door, painted walls flat white
Grow System:
Aeroponic-Hydroponic diy grow system. By using deep tote boxes, 1 as a solution/rez box, 1 as a grow boxes, aquarium air pump, submerged water pump, (4) 12" air stones, aquarium heater, 24 hour timer for solution pump, programmable timer for CFLs, (2) 8 inch fans providing fresh air, (2) thermal gauges.
Operation: The " solution pump" sends oxygenated nutes to the micro sprayers located inside of the growbox. The oxygenated nutes are sprayed onto the plants suspended roots, then the solution drains back to rez. box.
Grow Nutrients: General Hydroponics Flora Grow, Flora Bloom and Flora Micro,Calmag+, and Distilled Water only, drained and replenished every 7 days
CFL Grow Lights:
(Six) 85watt, 6500k, 4200 lumen for vegetation
(Six) 42 watt, 6500k, 3860 lumen for vegetation
(Five) 105 watt, 2700k, 5000 lumen for flowering
(Four) 65 watt, 2700k, 4800 lumen for flowering
(Four) 55 watt, 3000k, 3860 lumen for flowering
(Ten) 23 watt, both 6500k and 2700k to provide mixed spectrums
15 clamp on light fixtures
Light Schedules:

Flowering/Ripening: 12/12 for 2 weeks, 14/10 until harvest
Note: 48 hours of no lights before harvest

This is at 109 days into the grow, 59 days into flowering. Trichomes today were 60-70% Cloudy w/alittle amber. Start rinsing the roots tommorrow. Currently burning 1290watts, 79,000+ lumen
Both the Landrace CG and BW are so top heavey I have 3-4 BW just laying down, can't reach them and already have tied up a dozen colas in the growroom...
