Honestly, I'm more shocked than anyone............. 100 0z under 1290 watts of LED. I don't think you can ever again question if LED can out perform HPS any more. Quality is definitely better overall too.......sticky top to bottom.
Man I love finger hash, LOL, smoke it almost everytime, it's almost a right of passage.Oh.......LOL
I believe I read 4 inches from the ceiling is acceptable.......... just enough distance to allow some air flow.
I just smoked a bowl of hash.......... and boy, my lungs are tired. LOL Tasty stuff, for sure.
And, I also noticed today that many of the plants still going are pretty much done below the canopy, it's just the tops of the plants that need to catch up. I felt a lot better after seeing that.
TheShortAnswer, please message me. I have some seeds for you.
Except yield and the tips re: defoliation, I assume. But yes, I am shocked at the flowering time spread and very especially the lack of orange in the strain. The second one in a strain called Orange Gasm is just absurd. And huge yields with long flowering times kind of even out....I did want to mention how unhappy i am with Irie Seeds..... at this point, 29% of the plants still need more time- totally unacceptable. I'd stand clear of Irie, as his strain descriptions suck i.e. flowering times, no orange or tangerine in the strain, will no longer respond to questions about the strain, and the wide range of pheno's. Low marks in all the categories...........
For me especially, I think it's easy to get far too aggressive with fert regimes and nutrients, I think a middle road is by far the best overall approach, and this grow kinda confirms that to some degree. I'm not saying being aggressive doesn't help in specific instances, but it's really easy to cross that line, whereas it starts to inhibit growth.You missed it...........
Bottom line though, I believe less is more. I use Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Veg and Bloom. I add Botanicare Cal/Mag too. Passed that, nothing else but some teas here and there. I never went above 700 ppm in the grow, and was using fresh water (no ferts) every 3rd watering. I always added at least 5ml of Cal/Mag though. I don't believe in adding a lot of extra stuff because I believe it causes other issues.....KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). If you have some specific questions, I'm sure they'd get answered.
In no particular order........... strain, lights and defoliation were the keys to this grow.
To be honest, I checked 1 time the entire grow. LOL Someone early in the grow asked me to measure, and I think it was mid 70's somewhere. I really spent most of my time keeping the room temps right at 82 degrees and keeping the humidity at 50% or thereabouts. Past that, I never measured anything else.
Yea, I"m actually shooting for 72-75 there about right now, but 78 would be around my upper limits as well, I think anything above that is counterproductive.Thats really what i meant. Room temp. Im wondering if i can run my hps next to aquamans hlg lamp. I dont like the room temp above 78.
