Hello everyone. Longtime lurker on the forums. Finally decided to jump on

I’m making the switch from coco to rockwool and from HPS to LEDs.

I’ve run coco for years with good results, but I’m looking to make everything a bit more efficient.

This is the veg room, which will also be upgraded once these plants go into flower.

Strain is Pancakes from Cookies/Seed Junky. This is one of my favorite strains from the past year. Really excited to have a full run of it.

The flower room is currently being upgraded. Will be swapping out lights and trays with double-decker LEDs.

I have some experience with rockwool but I’m always learning, so advice is welcome!

Looking good man, I switched over to LEDs last year. I had to redial in my humidity settings a bit because my AC system runs less, and I had to up my EC in the first couple weeks of flower. I think you're gonna like it, my electrical cost went down substantially. The only thing that runs a little more is my dehumidifiers. What lights are you getting?

End of week 5 today.. Day 35

Here’s a couple top deck shots. Getting chunky up there





Gotta say I’m loving the LEDs so far.

There’s definitely improvements to be made but it should be a pretty decent first run.

Next batch is in..

Another round of Pancakes! This will be the last run of it before I switch to something else.. Still deciding between a few strains. I really want to push the yield in this room and this strain isn’t great in that department.



Didn’t get a chance to swap out the veg lights yet, so I’ll use these for one more run.

Day 47 today..




Starting to dial everything down to prepare for ripening. Still lots of white pistils but these girls finish strong and put out a lot of color at the end.



I’ll get some nice close up shots with a good camera right before chop.
