    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    Bad news, I was out of town for a few days and my A/C failed. The plants took some heavy damage given the temps both air and water shot up. I will not continue this journal here. I got some plants in veg right now that are about 4 weeks away. I will be back here for Round 2. Take care and...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    I am running the recommended height from Mike of GLH. If you missed his (quoted) post it was over in the LED Users Unite thread some time back. He also said that in his tests, plants at 24" yielded more than plants grown with lights closer. You gotta keep in mind that the 2011 v1 Spectra is NOT...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    Ah, you're in coco, I see. I was wondering when to hit them with the PK. I was thinking when the flowers are more or less formed and start packing in to become buds. I believe this is when they would need it most. Thanks, are you using GLH Spectras 2011 v1 in your grow?

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    And now for the weekly photo update on Day 24 of 12/12 Endless Sky G-13 The top view of each plant: ESA2 ESA3 Looks like the ESBs are showing some kind of deficiency in a few top leaves closest to the light. The ESAs are not showing this... One more side note for the pheno selection...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    Cool, keep me in the loop on finding a cheaper Boost alternative. I guess you use Canna Aqua as well? I ran the Vega for the first two weeks of flower, feeding pretty lightly. What's you feeding program/experience with Canna?

    I look for a light that has shown results. I don't care if you tell me it is 1W or 1,000,000W. I don't care if you tell me it has all the spectrums of the sun and shower me with optimum photosynthesis wavelengths. Too much BS in the market to invest based on (often exaggerated) specs and claims...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    Let's have a look at the stretch report. We are on Day 23 of 12/12, so I figure we are near their final height. Keep in mind, these where topped and LSTed during their 29 day veg. Since we have two plants from each mother, we may have 2 different phenotypes of Endless Sky and G-13 each. We will...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    Did a weekly rez change yesterday. ES got Canna Aqua Flores + bennie tea - 0.6EC G-13 got Canna Aqua Flores + bennie tea - 0.8EC Im pretty sure the G-13 can handle more, but I'm taking it easy on the nutes. At the end of the week the EC levels stay the same as I set them in the beginning, so...

    If Mike is putting the returns/exchanges on ebay, then look for FOUR 2011 v1 290W coming up in the next couple of weeks. I will be getting 180s to replace mine.

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    To be honest, I can't say for sure whether one 290W can do a 3x4 with two plants or not. I've only run them up until this point, which isn't very far at all as you can see. I should say that these plants were NOT vegged in this system. Moreover, I didn't have the entire planned 3x4 area filled...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    Thanks, puff. Hope to have you on board for this run. Your geometry is a bit rusty though, hehe. :-) If you split up a 4x6 area in two equal parts, you will be left with two 4x3' areas or two 2x6' areas depending which way you split. I did draw up plans on paper before doing anything, so that...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    I have them running at 25", give or take. If you see the pink rope hanging from the lights, that is the 25" mark. The room is a 10x13", but each system is about 4x6', which means I am asking each 290W to cover a 3x4' area. Plants are smaller than I planned for, but I have 8x180W Spectras on the...

    Red Belly's GLH Spectra LED RDWC - Round 1

    So here we go: Day 2 of 12/12 Endless Sky G-13 Day 17 of 12/12 Endless Sky G-13 The flower development is pretty slow at this point. I only saw first signs of flower forming on ES on Day 11 of 12/12 and G-13 on Day 16. A bit hard to see, but here are a couple of close ups on Day 17...
