    3x3 LED Sour Diesel Blue Dream Super Lemon Haze

    For sure. If youre like me and dont really care what it looks like as long as it works then it can be real easy.

    3x3 LED Sour Diesel Blue Dream Super Lemon Haze

    Ok far red is in. My soldering needs some fine tuning but it works. I bought a flat piece of aluminum from lowes to mount them on. I had some JB weld high heat laying around so i used it. Then just wored the plug onto the driver. Here is one last shot of the ladies. Flipped tonight. Time to...

    2.5x1.5 cabinet (first grow)

    I would prob wait another 3 days then flip. You will just have to pull everything left and right. The stretch is hard to estimate unless you have grown that pheno of that strain before but a good rule of thumb is double the height. If your plant is flowered at 12" expect at least a 24" plant...

    Cab almost complete. Got a few questions

    Honestly i wouldnt waste time trying to scrog in a space so small. It would be easier i think to just LST the plant and keep it short. Thats a lot of light and if they grow too close you will burn up the leaves with light. Happened to me on my 2nd grow. If you need more height inside cabinet...

    2.5x1.5 cabinet (first grow)

    Personally i dont like heavy defoliation. When i scrog i clean up under the net like most everyone does. I dont want to tell you to butcher your plant. It just takes some experience. Removing large fan leaves to allow light to hit more bud sites helps. Just start small remove maybe the 1st and...

    2.5x1.5 cabinet (first grow)

    Can you put up a pic of the front side of the plant like facing the plant so i can see the branch development. Something like this. I dont see any reason you cant fill out the square with some training

    3x3 LED Sour Diesel Blue Dream Super Lemon Haze

    Yeah i just went to lowes and picked up a 15amp utility plug ill wire on. I confirmed in a diy led thread here that since the driver i ordered was ac input not dc therefor it could be wired directly. Ill put some pics up of my process and finished light. Going to be very basic.

    3x3 LED Sour Diesel Blue Dream Super Lemon Haze

    What a day. Disaster in the tent. My lights arrive tomorrow and while i was cleaning up underneath today i split the main stalk of the sour diesel in half. Ive done this before to branches and it pisses me off. Anyway got her surgically repaired. So the rest of the grow is going great as long...

    side by side aerocloner vs bubble cloner......

    I bought a already together bubble cloner kit from a local hydro shop. Holds 9 2" net pots came with the air pump and a small air stone. I took clones all the same day and dropped them in the cloner ph7.0 water at room temp. The only one to show any real signs of root development was the one...

    My first grow journal!

    also here is a link to a thread i made using my 125w cfl bulb showing how much light is lost over a few inches. The effectiveness of CFL is cut by over 50% in just 6" https://www.rollitup.org/t/cfl-light-loss-by-distancedistance.904203/

    My first grow journal!

    Honestly man i would get the cfl out of there. You habe to keep them sooo close within 4" of the plant to do any good. So unless they are on the sides they arent providing anything useful really. That led will have enough spread over center to cover everything. But if you think they help and...

    My first grow journal!

    Oh yeah dude. This is your second grow youre learning a bit at a time. Thats how i started too. Great way to go about it dont overwhelm yourself with everything at once. Anyway my 2nd grow was 2oz dry and i ran 2 plants micro style topped each one lst and flip real fast. They were no where near...

    My first grow journal!

    Great looking plants butbi wish i wouldve found this journal before you flipped. If you wouldve topped the large once once more on all the mains and lst to keep itbin line while the smaller one caught up then topped it and flipped you wouldve still had a low canopy and increased your yields...

    3x3 LED Sour Diesel Blue Dream Super Lemon Haze

    Theyre growing every day for sure. The lights i ordered are the cree far reds. I only ordered 3 and a driver with 2 day shipping came out to about $48. The red bulbs are 730nm and thats what triggers the plant to sleep. Basically when you flip to 12 without thise lights it takes about 2 hours...

    First Official Grow. Fem White Widow (in progress)

    Im agreeing with at least another 2 weeks for sure but i think prob somewhere in the 3-4 range. I wouldnt cut back nutes or do any flushing yet. Those hairs are still stretching dont starve those swelling buds :)

    3x3 LED Sour Diesel Blue Dream Super Lemon Haze

    Thanks for keeping up! Yeah the super lemon haze is a very stretchy pheno. I have a pic from the start of the grow where i topped all of them except it cause i was still waiting on nodes to develop but it was already so tall. Its the stretchiest plant ive grown yet. I have had mostly indicas...
