The 961 in the background and the 469 as the backup in the fore. The 961 saw heat from the lights just as the 1127 did but no burn.

All plants got a little CaN with some B. Next watering I will bump up the concentration more. Just getting them adjusted but they did grow some.

Heat set to come on below 65 F air. The heating cables are keeping the soil constantly above 68F Normally at this time of year, the soil would be in the high 50's to low 60's.

March and April are the really kick ass growing months here. Hopefully I can be setting one by early April with the best growing conditions occuring in the late April-early May timeframe. This year I scheduled things around the prime growing weather and correlated that with the time our fruits put on the most poundage. I wanted my 20-40 day on the fruit to be optimal when it comes to warm weather.
