Good we'll have to watch how well we're doing ! My 1 plant should be easy, compared to 3 last time, with 3 different heights, and 3 different ripe times, and training. Cool. I'll be asking questions to get different views, throughout my process.

I have 3 in my grow, all fem same strain though. I have ran multiple trains before as well, it is hard to manage so I just run the same strains now. It will be good for us to compare haha we will probably have a lot of the same questions. First time in living soil and using LEDs.

Do you have adjustments on it ? My led is 40,60,80, and 100 %. I'm at 80 % until the 3rd week in flower, then I'll bump it up to 100. But, I'm used to indoor soil, and gros. Because I'm in Minnesota.

Yeah mine has a dimmer, 20-40-60-80-100% and I can pick in-between settings. My LED light is 730w and it is set to 40% at 30" right now. When I flip to flower in a few days I am going to turn it up to 50% and slowly turn it up over time.

Strange how our leds are set up different. Mines at 80 % and 17 inches. It's been at 80 for half of my veg. And, will continue until 3 weeks of flower, then I'll bump it to 100 %

I have been pretty easy on my plants because this is my first living soil and LED grow, and I have made a series of mistakes so I am probably being too easy on them haha. Someone in my journal actually told me to start upping the light so I have been increasing it every couple days.

Whatever you are doing is working, because she looks great!

You have a hotter LED, mine is 645. But, 30 inches seems like a lot to me. Veg, I here, your supposed to keep your lights between 18 to 24 during veg, and about 15 for flower.

I noticed a lot of people here run their Spiderfarmers at 20-30" so I have kept it at the further distance for this first grow with LEDs. Now that I am going into flower I wont raise it and I will just let my plants grow into it as I increase wattage. I am pretty guilty of under-doing things when I am new to something haha.

I like controlling my own weather. Can't do that outside ! Sun shines all the time indoors.
