The leaves on these smell better than most of the bud I’ve had lately. How close in terpene profile are the leaves to the final buds (if properly dried and cured)?

You should get a leaf temp gun and find the happy place. It's cool to experiment with different lights, temps and rh to see how they affect leaf temps.
im looking into this, any recommendations?

FLIPPED to FLOWER!
Tonight will be first 12/12 cycle. Turned light down to 55% (from 60%) new growth tips were getting white. Double checked light leakage in tent. Some areas of zipper where pinholes show through. Each time I run the zipper they’re in different spots so, by design, unavoidable unless I drape something over the tent. The room is dark but a little light will be present between 6am and when the lights come on at 11am. I don’t think it’ll be enough for concern but will keep an eye out for hermies...need to anyway with the SP bagseed.

Lets see what this SE5000 can do! looking forward to the next couple months+

Light leak shouldn’t be huge as long as it’s not brighter than moon light ?

Hey all,

The first 4 weeks of this grow was with the SE3000 and I just swapped it out for the SE5000 (thanks @SpiderFarmerLED !)

Recap: I’m on my first grow and still learning the ropes. You guys have been awesome in helping, this forum is great! I‘m 4 weeks in and thinking of flipping to flower by Friday (today is Monday).

Heres my gear:
Space: 3x3 tent
Light: Spider-Farmer Upgraded SE5000 Full spec LED w UV & IR
Medium: 70/30% Coco/Perlite
Nutrients: Mantis Buffered Nutrients
Seeds: 3 Pineapple Upside Down Cakes & 1 Lemongrass from Humboldt Seed Co., 1 Sour Power from BagSeed!!
Containers: 4 Three Gallon Smart Pots, plus 1 One gallon generic fabric pot (for the little PUDC runt)
Method: Minimal defoliation, one plant LST, the rest free to boogie.

Feel free to join me on this adventure of creating a miniature tropical jungle in my basement. Here’s some pics.

Hey sorry for posting on your post but just started a new post on my profile before I seen this one but my question is do certain strains have the leaves drooping like that because one of my plants does that but the other is great

Hey no problem at all! They droop a little after a good watering and also right before lights out. It’s like the plant learns the light cycle and transfers energy in anticipation of the lights turning out...not sure the exact process but it’s normal. The plant that’s drooping...if more than just those two instances, I would assume the strain thrives in a different environment maybe hotter, colder, more humid, etc. But I imagine it can be many other things as well.

Have you added anything but Mantis yet ?
Nothing. Only one plant got 2 foliar sprays of 1tsp/gallon epsom salt but not sure if it really did anything. There are issues with a couple older fan leaves on each plant...hoping it doesn’t get worse and just going to ride it out and see what happens. Had to turn the light down to 40% because tips were burning. 28”-33” height tips were turning white. So, either the light is more powerful than I thought, or my temps need to be above 80, not hovering 74-78F. But yeah, just Mantis so far. We shall see how it plays out. Just flipped to flower 3 days ago. Fingers crossed that flowering goes well!

I don't think its burning from light. It should be getting a lot more. Spider farmer says 100% @ 12-18". I doubt you can make good buds @ 33" even on 100%
