Fist LED grow

[Green in The Garden]

congrats on your new light mate.. Theres a guy in a Danish forum, Who has same model i gues.. is 200W right? is the Price incl. tax/shipping ect.? try take a look at Houyi Lighting's leds... they look interesting.. if you are planning to by some small led for vegge only/as an supplement.

 

[Slipon]

thanks, seem`s ok so fare, lets see

do you have link to his thread ? tho I have been kicked out of a Denish MJ forum Bc. I made Ppl. aware of the advice given by the administrators/owners was crap advice and fucking +%#m3"i!! as they tried to sell Ppl. products from there shop to fix problems that had nothing to do with the products they tried to sell, low life and if that was`t enough the product in there shop was way over priced, that forum was not made for the members sake, or even close

and yes its 192 actual watt (96x3W)

price was good (285&#8364 shipping was 45€ tho so around 2400 Dkk in total

here is a link to there pages (sumthing the Denish MJ forum did`t allow there member to do either)

http://ledlightszone.eu

there new Cree fixtures do look sweet, but have no white`s in em and for the same price I would only cover half the space as with the one I bought

and yes the Houyi LEDs do look nice, have the Helios fixtures like them they have in this UK shop:

http://www.ledhydroponics.co.uk/OnlineShop/tabid/88/CatID/8/Helios.aspx

but Houyi like the Cidly (chinese company) don't have any prices on there pages, don't like it, know Ppl. order from Cidly with no problems, but I like to see what stuff cost before I plan on ordering, seem to pushy for me to first be able to know/compare prices when you have em on the phone, maybe just me

yearh here is the link.. http://cannaseeds.se/forum/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=1797&start=200

dont hope is the same forum you had bad experience with.. think people are nice in there and good to help new comers.

if you write them, asking for a sample Price on a certain led, they will give you.. sometimes you can deal-Down the Price..i dont know about cidly.. havent been in contact with them.. i find other light manufactures more interesting..

yes i wouldent go for a light with out some Whites in.. ive got White lights in both of my leds..

 

[Slipon]

takker

and no its not the same forum

I wouldn't go for one without white`s either, documented that even the yellow and green light have some effect on the plant, and white seem`s to be the new black, so to speak, need that full spectrum to hit "every bottom" and according to my research, 80-90% Red`s or in the red spectrum for optimal flowering

know its for tomato`s but still



the new one I got have 4x6500K 4x2700K and 16 blue`s and 72 different Red`s from 610 to 720 with mostly 630/660nm

the old have 16x6500K and 8x455 rest is 620-700

the old one I have is a Cidly fixture and do preform better Im sure, when I measure with my Light meter I easily get 5-7K foot candles at 20-30cm the new only produce that at 2cm at 20-30cm it only produce 2-4K foot candles, but I dunno about Umol as my light meter is a cheap one, still good for comparing Im sure, but time will tell I guess

day 30/24

the hempy bucket



look nice with fat pistens and healthy dark green leave`s is at day 24 of 12/12 still on lucas formula with H2O2



the clone, from the last grow



look nice and healthy, wont yield massive, but Im sure add to my total yield



and the larges plant on day 30, in a 7 gallon pot, a bit light green, gave it a good watering to day with some extra micro added and began to feed em the 13/14 P/K at half strength




and a few more

@Slipon, what PH have you been feeding the hempy at?
I have two LSD hempys and both show different pheno's, one tends to be more indica dominant and the other more sativa, also both have been given the same water etc from the start but having trouble with defs in the taller one so considering they have just been started on GH Flora 3 part series it must be ph that is off, I have been ph'ing at between 5.5-5.8

well I did the hempy by "accident" was out of soil and needed to repot a seedling in a cup of soil, so lazyness and my interest in hempy made me try
so its in a 5KG plagron bucket I had mearl in (lime) with just pure clay pellet`s, did`t have any perlite either

and as I don't grow hydro I don't have a PH or EC pen either, so done it by trail and run or what ever its name in english

know my tap water (don't have RO) is around 7,4 coming out and I once had a cheap GH drop test kit and know a 2L bottle need about 0,5ml PH down (liquid) to hit 6 +/-

thats all I done, and use the lucas formula with GH micro and bloom

http://lucasformula.com

beside that I have been adding a few drops of H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) each time I changes water (every 3th day) and about 1/4 ts of epsom salt to the mix (my tap water keep plenty of Ca)

 

[fr3d12]

I've been ph'ing at under 6 but may have to revise for the taller one, hard to believe both came from the same seed packet, they are completely different, one is stocky and short like an indica and the other is tall, more delicate looking with thinner leaves like a sativa but I guess these things will happen and it is not a problem.
Thanks for your answer

my first fixture have 8x610 16x620 32x640 32x660 and 8x700 beside the 8x455 and 16x6500K made em build it for flowering in mind, so did swap out 2 blue`s with 2 more Red`s

the new one have a bit more blue but also less white and for sure a majority of 630/660 with a few about 600-620 and a few 720 near the center of each square, not bad, but more like 80/20% red/blue where my first fixture is closer to 90/10% and most of the blue come in form of 6500K but the new one also cost 30% less

not uncommen for LSD




a more sativa dominated pheno






and a more indica dominated pheno



also nocite they look the same in Veg, indica like with brod leave`s but act different in flowering

like em both but the indica dominated one seem`s to have more compact Bud`s and a bit more frosty

 

[fr3d12]

I look forward to the smoke report

 

[Slipon]

its here thats from my last run, smoked most of the indica dominate plant, and a bit of the Sativa one

here is a pic of the sativa Bud`s, biggest once I got and have been kind a saving them for a prober cure




8,5 and 9,5 gram after the dry (the picture) now after 4 week`s of curing they weight in at 7 and 7,5 gram

smell really nice, skunk with a touch of lime and pretty sticky and even tho sativa like still pretty compact

will safe em for another week, for my vacation, and closer to harvest so fare the LSD is like I know it, hit you hard ! if your not careful you go nightynight, have smoked quality hash on a bong for +20 years now and never had any problem with driving after a smoke, don't like to drive the first few hrs after I smoked LSD (motor bike)

so for me who use it as much to sleep on (don't like pill`s) as for the like/fun of it, its perfect, just dont over do it if you want to stay active/social unless its with a PS3 stick in your hand

 

[Slipon]

here is a few old close up`s




indica dominated, grown under a 600W HPS


EDIT: and my favorite

 

[fr3d12]

Looks great, really nice.
I bought the LSD seeds for the effect so I am looking forward to getting high off it, I don't have a high tolerance so my yield will last a very long time

 

[Slipon]

yea, I mix mine half and half with toasted tobacco, like it where hash and smoke it on a bong and still get totally wasted from 2-3 hits

its the most potent weed I ever smoked, I know there is others that is even more, but this is right up there with sumthing like 24% THC and 1,2% CBD if grown right and easily compete with 15$ a gram quality hash from morocco or india/Kashmir I used to buy

 

[fr3d12]

Very hard to get that kind of quality here.
I stopped buying because most of what was available was sprayed with fibre glass or even glass itself, they sprinkle it crushed onto flowering plants to give a frosty appearance and add weight, the joints start making cracking sounds like they are gonna explode and it is obviously very bad for the smoker, I haven't had a smoke in three months and have another three to go but I don't mind waiting especially if it turns out good.
I got a white widow from seedsman seeds going as well and today my three auto red poison arrived so they will be going outside once ready.

 

[mycomaster]

You guys are making me so sad I didn't get LSD seeds on my last order. I just can't buy every strain under the sun, although I have high hopes of one day having the best. It sounds like LSD will be among them. I should be getting some seeds from GGG, they're breeders of some very extraordinary genetics. I'll for sure let everyone know how the grows progress. Sorry to hear that they do such criminal things as spraying your herb with fiberglass and such. That's crazy, and dangerous as heck man. Crazy @$$ world. Peace out.

 

[fr3d12]

It is sad but criminals do not care about peoples health only money.
They would also mix hash with diesel fuel to bulk it up or anything really, you would know you had it because there would be little white spots on it and after 20 minutes you would have a headache.
I'm happy to break a stupid law in my country to grow something I love and know everything that has gone into it's production rather than fund criminals who buy guns and hurt people.
