Greetings from The Cold!

I have them on a heating pad, and the soil is around 80 degree F range indeed. I also run a humidifier with warm mist, bringing the temp to around 80F as well.
 
I just ordered a 400W HPS/MH combo which I can hook up to the air exchanger to suck out the heat. The MH bulb initially has 36,000 lumens, and the HPS bulb has 55,000 lumens. For flowering, that makes a big difference.

Sounds like you are on your way.  That combo will help tremendously.   You may be pushing things a little with 20+ in a tent set up but you could always cull a few to make room.

Yes, I am planning on keeping one of each variety (strongest of course) and then I can do cloning if needed. The rest will go to a friend who is experimenting with vertical growing in a tube.
 
I also have a 1ft x 5ft x 7ft closet available, with sliding doors. I might try to setup this new HID in there without the tent. The white paint should be reflective enough

Thanks for your welcome! I seeded Beaver dam and Madame Jeanette last night, placed them on a mat. The last batch of these did not germinate, so I am looking forward to the results!
 
OK, back to the Piri Piri. I gave it some better fertilizer, epsom/aspirin, as well as some blood and bone meal combo a few days ago. This is what this piri piri looks like today.
 
I think it is looking better already! Any thoughts or additional recommendations...?

Welcome from............Chicago
Your Piri-Piri appears to have chemical burn on the edges, and perhaps overwatering by the looks of the lower leaves. Let her dry out...I bottom water, that's where the roots sit.
 
Thanks again for all the welcomes. A short update, as both Piri Piri started to bloom. Although they are still short, I am very enthusiastic. I might pinch flowers from one plant and leave them on the other to do a comparison.
