Shaded's Corner - SF4000 & SE3000

I completely stunted my seedlings this grow by running too high PPFD. I think you’re making the right call backing it off. haha yeah they are much happier back down at the 300s but it's fun to have fun some times and see what they can take :)

Gandalf got an upgrade today! Say hello to my new friend - 1000w of bar light goodness that barely squeezes in my 4x4 😂 SF4000 is being retired or sold.

Seems like the ppfd experiment got derailed by other things. What I initially thought was light damage only got worse as I dimmed the lights. A day or two later and the leaf symptoms started to look eerily similar to the one and only time I tried to use RO water. Calcium deficiency at this stage of growth?? Wtf. 3/4 of them were experiencing the issues much worse than the 4th.

-put new tap water in my pump bottle
-top dressed the girls with 1 teaspoon each of Gypsum, Epsom Salts, and the Rock Dust Blend.

New growth coming in nice and green. These plants are gonna make me go bald 🤦🏻‍♂️

I use RO water, but yeah that sucks this early in the growth. I hope they make a good turn around for you. And don’t feel bad if you go bald, I am and you save a lot of $$ in the long run 🤣

Tried it once and almost killed my plants! That was a learning experience for sure. But now when I see those leaf symptoms I know right away what's going on - it's just really strange to see it so early in seedlings. The good news is I am doing a 1 plant grow in my tent next and it looks like Midge is the strongest out of the 4. I'll have nothing but time to baby the others back to good health

You're right...2 less haircuts every month x 12 months :p

Well you know how much I love Veronica, she’ll pull through! I know it!!

Also, how much are you selling your SF for? And would you ship to Mexico?

Damn nation that’s bad ass, 1000w led bar light in 4x4 😎. What kind of light is it?

I was hoping to get 260-300ish CAD for it. It weighs approx 8.8 kilos if you want to look into how much shipping would cost and see if its worthwhile to you?

Hi, I've not used the led lights for vegging, I'm too much in love with the T5 fluorescent. My seedlings at birth I keep about 18" away but as they grow I can keep the lights right on top of them, within an inch if need be and only burn if they touch the lamp. I'm too nervous about fking up my seedlings through my learning curve on led's.......I fk up enough as is...add a new component and she'd be a disaster...

T5 are the best light during seeding stage. Hands down!

Harvest day today for the Sundae Driver & DoHo! Overall I'm very happy with how things turned out and I would recommend @PrimoClonesCanada to anyone out there looking to run some straight 🔥 can't wait to try these out

Have you thought about running a black light to kill any mold? Since I've gotten mine going late in flower I've had no mold problems and where I live it is super duper humid place all year round.

Good stuff, Wizard King.
What's the thought for leaving those larger leaves in place through the drying cycle?
To slow it down?

I've always taken mine off before chopping and hanging.

Yep you're 100% correct! The less humid your drying area the more "in tact" I'll leave the plant. Areas with higher humidity do the opposite - remove all fan leaves, remove buds from stems etc.

My bud already dries way too fast so I do anything I can to slow it down :)

@PrimoClonesCanada honestly man everything is really nice!! I've been getting nothing but compliments on the terpene profiles in my tents. And yes I have had a chance to try the TT and it's already become a fave :)

An old friend I hadn't seen in years popped by for a visit yesterday and out of all the strains I had to try he couldn't keep his nose out of the TT bag 😂 I'll def have to get a press or do the hair straightener method.
