    Thatsmessedup's Blackstar 500 LED, LST Grow #2

    Agree with all the above about LST plants taking longer to finish, growth tip hormone is spread through out the plant which causes extra stress and longer growth time, but overall larger yield, if all growth gets sufficient light with the right feeding schedule. Plants look healthy and right on...

    Thatsmessedup's Blackstar 500 LED, LST Grow #2

    Plants are coming along nicely, love the healthy green growth. Would be great if you can rotate the plants once a days, hopefully that way both sides get maximum lumen output from the LED, and I found the plants love it if you make sure they are'nt sitting in run off from the coco/soil mix...

    Problems with leaves in LED grow

    I completely agree with petflora above post, well said. I've learnt the hard way here to, was feeding way to much canna coco ab at 1.5 ec, turns out the plant only needed a max of 1.0ec. Combining to many flowering additive/enhancers/hormones at one given time will 100 percent cause nute...

    430watt LED perpetual medical grow op

    Was using a magnetic ballast with a 430watt son t argo lamp, total of 720watts when running, not to mention the 1000watt air con, which used to kill me during summer, and with space being a problem, i cant just grow during winter. LEDS do way better than before, at first was abit dissapointed...

    Testing Hans panel: 56watt Cree xp-e/ Lumiled rebel power==== Let's talk efficiency

    Yes i agree with the above about higher humidity during the first week of growth with seedlings, its very important you dont soak the soil/coco around the stem and try to water around the edge of the pot (to avoid stem rot), try to minimize nutrient/water solution touching the baby stem. I put...

    430watt LED perpetual medical grow op

    Thanks for dropping by spawned, I did over do it with the catalyst and shooting powder between days 30 - 40 on the sat pheno, needed much less food than the indica pheno, and i agree that the same strain needed less feeding under LED due to the heat compared to HID, but bleaching can still...

    Will this work for two plants ?

    It will grow 1 plant, but yield will be dissapointing and a waste of time, it will be good for vegging established clones with the light about 3 - 4 inches away. I dont mean to rain on your parade, but when it comes to flowering, you need atleast 50watts of LED per square foot to have some nice...

    430watt LED perpetual medical grow op

    bb419: 1 gallon pots with coco and hydrotron on the bottom for drainage for the sat pheno (lots of yellow fan leaves) and 2 litre icecream container for indica pheno, I think it depends if its running at 110v or 240v, have a kilowatt meter and it reads 334 at the socket, 2011 year models for...

    HELP!!! I know I need an LED but which ONE????

    Nothing wrong with blackstars for the price you pay, replaced 430 hps with 430watt of blackstars and the switch is well worth it, Electricity is reduced, I can turn down inline centrifugal inlet and outlet fans, and the smoke seems much more potent to the 430watt hps grown bud (might be a better...

    Blackstar 240w defect/problem?

    Have the same problem with both bs 240 and bs 500, emailed victor about this about 4 months ago, he said that it wouldnt hurt performance cause it was UV spectrum 430nm (i think). He explained that he is working with the manufacturer to rectify the problem with the new 2012 models, Hopefully he...

    Grams per watt, LEDs outperform HPS

    It boils down to the situation one is in, really cant have a 1000watter in a 50cm X 90cm X 180cm grow tent, but i could fit 600watts of LED with no problem and get some top quality dank medicine. Here is some bud grown under 430watts of LED, the trich production seems much more dense compared...

    Grams per watt, LEDs outperform HPS

    I agree that HID may produce a higher yeild of bud mass, but when i grew the same bag seed strain under HID (430w hps) and now its been grown under 430watts of led (bs500,Bs240) and the bud potency is double maybe triple. Now there has been a 1 year difference between cuttings that i used. HID...

    Hey PSUAGRO, didnt mean no disrespect on your technique, I am using the exact same technique, and your little babies are looking nice green and healthy. I find its best to water around the seedling which im sure thats how you're watering them, as long as the pot is light from heavy between...
