I tweaked my set up some more.
The males I banished to the backyard looked much healthier than the one in the tent. Obviously my tent environment wasn't cutting it.
So I lowered my lights to be more sun like and kicked up the exhaust fan to get more air circulation. Viola!
They're starting to grow well just as they are about to flower.
I'm going to make one more change to the line up. The mutant in the upper right corner is going outside. I am of the opinion that it won't amount to much. I still have 3 auxiliary plants in reserve to choose from for a replacement.

While I was fooling with my set up last night I was checking how my light coverage was corner to corner.
I have two Viparspectra 1500 lights in a 2x4 tent, the original and the newer pro model. The pro model has 1000 par corner to corner. The older model is 1000 in the center but only 900 for most of the rest of the coverage, aha! I'm thinking I might put a shorter plant in the center and lower the underperforming light some more, don't want to cook the center plants though. If I spend more money on another light I do believe my wife will kill me.

HLG has 25% off right now :ROFLMAO:
 
Took out the weird mutant and transplanted one of the auxiliary plants last night. They were getting brushy so I lollipopped them a little. I'm going for 18 nice big central colas, I won't have room for bushy plants, the lower side branches get removed.
Blue cheese has started to flower as has Slymer. Annie's prima reserva kosher kush is a beast.
The final line-up is thus: 3 kosher kush, 3 mint cakes, 3 Dancing limes, 2 slymers, 2 freakzilla 1 blue cheese,1 gelato 41, 2 macaroon gazurple and 1 frostzilla.

Have some flavors there!
 
I have some individual pics of some of the girls
Annie's Kosher Kush is a beast I have 2 pheno types,a long leaf and a short leaf. then we have a nice Slymer and Dancing Lime. Finally the Blue Cheese is looking good although she is pouting a little to let me know she didn't approve of me neglecting her water.

The males are loving life. One in particular has me excited. You guys have seen pictures of the Frostzilla mutant. I tried crossing it with a unicorn poop male when I did my seed run. I only got around 30 "maybe" looking seeds. I sprouted 2 seeds and I have a healthy brother and sister plant.
I'm calling this guy Brutus.

Short and super nice compact plant. Got some good candidates
 
All the packaging and Christmas stuff is going away soon. In the mean time I do what I can in the space provided.
The blue cheese has multiple bud sites. I have a nice male to introduce her to. I have some more spreader bars heading my way, gotta maximize my space. Next week I think we will be lolipopping and pollinating.

My plans for the new year.
If I can gain 2 more linear feet against the wall I could set up my 2 x 2 x 4 and start sprouts and veggies. Garage clean-up imminent.
If someone would just take a sewing machine off my hands I would have room for my reservoir. I tried giving it away with a sign in the front yard, no takers. Let's try again.
The original plan was to pollinate a couple of bud sites on the Gelato 41 and Blue Cheese with Dancing Lime. I think we will pollinate a couple of Annie's Kosher Kush buds with a little Dancing Lime too. I will mate the Freakzilla x Unicorn poop brother and sister. The resulting strain shall be named after her initials F. U.
Finally, saving my money for some sort of climate control come summer.
