on the subject of lighting, I'm positive I don't have enough to finish her but I plan on adding 4 more 24" T5HO for a total of 6 with my led. I don't have enough $ to add 600w HPS plus I get a killer deal on my T5's, $25 a piece.

LED 411-
45 3w leds 135w
8 Band Veg+Flower (same as Mars led but no white and non switchable)

T5- 6400k 24w


Check out the pics and let me know if AFTER adding the extra lights, will it be enough for a decent finish.

Not sure where you are from but here in Canada I purchased CFL spirals 4 - 42W - 200W equivalents for $11 each. Pretty bright but they were still less than what I wanted. I added two 54W LED 7Band spot lights and have 8 10W I can add for flowering. I put the results of my $44 investment below. Those four lights only gave me 8-10000 LUX of light max in a very small footage. My new setup is averaging 25-30000 LUX and I still have 8 bulbs I could add. If your tight on money this will get you through your first grow bro. I'm only on number two but I can tell you that they're going to get sick and then they will get better. If you're there to see it happen you'll be able to fix her. I burnt mine to death (so everyone said) but she bounced back giving me some sweet medicine.

good advise bro thanks. I actually just ordered a 600w 9band led including UV IR and white.... I'm sure with that it should be enough light for her...

As for getting sick, tell me about it geez. I just got home and she's wilted down Like something is wrong. not sure how high temps got in my res. said 72 when I got home, highest it's ever been.... Im going to just wait till the morning to find out. Maybe she knows it's bed time? It was half hr before lights out. Hope she wakes up in a better mood lol

btw that medicine looks nice, good luck on your second grow.
I'm glad I did a trial run first, it's definitely a lot of hands on learning.:dunce:

Sounds like your roots might be too dry or too wet, hard to say with out more details but heat would cause shiny spots and the edges to curl. Thanks I know you're going to enjoy your first product especially if you get that new light of yours in time! Post when you get that baby running.
