Thanks for all the support 
Great reminder why this site is great. I won't be on as much, but will still be on a fair bit. I'll have to grow vicariously once I snip them.
And yeah it's a shame that SuperSkunk would have turned into a beast. Good gententics, I look forward to growing it again. The next journal will be a perpetual most likely.
Here's a peek from the cam, I'll pop in and check on them in an hour or two.

wow sorry to hear about your situation ! You can’t just pick up a tent throw a couple of tomato plants in there and say it is what it is ? I had a plumber come in for a Reno and he mentioned most houses he’s been to have some sort of garden going ...

I've thought it over and discussed it with the Mrs, tonight's their last night. While this certainly isn't the outcome I expected when I started this journal, it's gotta be one of the absolutely most important lessons any grower could and should know/learn:
It's time to fold 'em.

Geez that's a bummer Rexer, I guess you'll only keep them away if you start sneezing and coughing a lot. But as you say, you gotta know when to fold them. Looking forward to you churning out some nice plants again!Sadly this grow may get cut short due to unplanned activity at my house (thanks to my greedy landlord!!). The Mrs and I had a talk about it last night, and I've done everything I can to keep realtors out of the house till we vacate, however, the landlord wants realtors and contractors coming in. What a smart, considerate thing to do in the middle of a pandemic eh? Sad part is the law is on their side, and if I delay much more I've been advised I can be sued. I'd rather not loose my new house before we even get settled.

Thanks brother, I just finally got to sit down. So much stuff to do and start packing some stuff up. I don't want all my nutes and what not out & visible once people start coming to view the house. I'm looking at either a 5x5 or 4x8 tent for my next grow, eventually I'll build a grow room(s) once time and budgets let me.Geez that's a bummer Rexer, I guess you'll only keep them away if you start sneezing and coughing a lot.

It'll probably take me over a week to fully disassemble the cabinet as it is.
Funny thing, I haven't touched the res for quite a bit now and they are looking quite good!
I feel for you man, but you're doing the best thing, and it lets you come back bigger and better than ever. But the most important thing is, I just hope you're got enough stash in reserve to last you before re-starting your next grow! All the best with the disassembly and having a no hassle move.

So the deed was done, I've just been putting off posting it...
Hope I never have to cull such healthy beautiful plants like that again. I let it go a few days and never touched the res. They looked perfect!
Sorry for the one root shot, I almost dropped my phone into the tub

Oh thanks! We take possession in a few months, I've already gotten the new system sitting here in boxes, unopened. For the 1st run in the system I think I'll test it using hydroton to keep it familiar. I got my 1st bottle of hydroguard in today...went straight into the bin packed with all my nutes. I'm going to start taking apart the cabinet tomorrow.
Thanks man, I hope so too. Its the packing part i hate.

I feel your pain Rex! I’m expecting some of my ladies to come down in the next week or so. They’ll be the first bud I’ll have to smoke that I’ve grown that isn’t CBD in a long time.

No more street bud!Sucks to be you right now bro but it’s a real smart move to dismantle and get rid of the evidence if you’ve got visits from realtors and such. You will be back in no time
