📊 The Final Numbers
Tent Size: 2x2 (SF1000 LED @ 100W draw, running 24/0)
Environment: Summerhouse setup managed via smart climate control
Total Harvest: 191.3g (6.75 oz) dry weight across 2 plants grown with Ali Bongo Bongo Bulk seeds. Which are local to me. However I believe they are white label from Spain seed stockers. They grow with extreme vigour.
Plant 1 (Mimosa x Wedding Cake Pheno #1): ~80g dry (finished a couple of weeks earlier)
Plant 2 (Mimosa x Wedding Cake Pheno #2): 111.3g dry (harvested at Day 100)
Final Efficiency: ~1.91 g/Watt
🧠 Key Lessons & Strategy:
Staggered Harvest / Canopy Space: Pheno #1 finishing earlier was actually a huge advantage. Once she was chopped, Pheno #2 took over the entire 2x2 footprint and got 100% of the light coverage to swell up during her final 2 weeks of flower.
Patience on the Late Run: Letting Pheno #2 push all the way to Day 100 paid off massively. The trichome density and calyx swelling in those last 10–14 days pushed the final weight way past what I expected.
24/0 Light Schedule: Running the 100W light non-stop kept temps consistent in the summerhouse and maximized daily light integral (DLI) without overloading thermal thresholds.
Resetting the tent now with a fresh run in living soil with mycorrhizae and high-vigor genetics. Setting the bar high for round two!
Smoke report: Smooth, strong id say around 20% thc. Second pheno has more lemon citrus terps. First pheno a little more cake. Second pheno definitely hitting hardest and feel extra sticky on the buds. Great seeds for £3.50 each. They just grow with extreme vigour and can vary between seeds. But they've always been reliable for me and given a great yield especially at that price. Just way too much leaf to bud ratio for me. Hoping I can one day find better seeds. Mephisto is in the tent next.
