You’ve been busy! Thinking of bringing the light any closer or crankin up the wattage?
Yes, I get bored sitting around
Not planning to up the wattage in that cupboard at this stage due to un-rooted clones still being there and the light is already very close to the tallest one - probably can't see from the photos. I could switch on the T5s on the lower tier but with UK energy prices going stupid next month I'm playing safe and being a cheapskate, running on 8 watts

Once I've transplanted the seedlings and rooted clones into 5" pots and the clones in the propagator are all rooted I'll lower the shelf for more headroom & increase the wattage, then when they're too big for the clone cupboard and my flowering crop's chopped they'll go to the main veg/bloom tent to get bombarded with μmols under the KS3000. Some will probably be lanky anyway due to being sativa-dom & not too bothered how they look at this stage as long as they're healthy and alive. Don't want them growing too big, too fast but just enough for them to be ready for the main veg /bloom tent to minimise downtime between crops - for me it's about timing, managing my small spaces and trying to keep costs down at the moment. I err on the side of caution with LEDs too, destroyed a few plants with too much light, thinking it was other things.
