Indoor LED Grow 2011

Ouchy :/
Watching your grow though man

And i have to say youre doing amazing! really excited and hoping that i can do an LED grow in a couple months. Just hesitant to shell out uber money for the bulb.

yea i understand the whole cost thing fortunately i got mine for almost free so i didnt really have to pay for them but i love how well they work and thanks for the props

StoneyC · Apr 11, 2011

StoneyC · Apr 13, 2011

Sorry for the slacking on updating ive been mad busy but i got the time to snap a few pics for you guys and girls if your still paying attention out there lol
dont blame you if you arent

Your plants look very healthy. I'm gonna have to try leds out sometime soon...I want that purple light in my room ha ha. Also have been thinking recently a mix of led and hps in flowering might grow some serious buds??

It seems like there should be a company or organization dedicated to the advancement of marijuana growing...pioneering research and studies into what grows the most healthy plants and biggest, most potent buds..testing new technologies and growing methods and distributing their findings freely...damn don't know where that random stoned thought came from ha ha. Thanks for all the pics.

just sprinkle some simple good old sulphur on the top and water it gently through, that'll do the little bastards in :-)

StoneyC · Apr 14, 2011

I can't wait to test it out soooo close

How long is the flowering period for this strain ?

StoneyC · Apr 15, 2011

i have several different strains rocking my friend .... they look to be ranging from 8 weeks from some 10 or more for my pineappple for sure but in general it varies among area and conditions and when the grower decides its ready everyone has a different opinion but i wait until all the trichs are at least all milky with at least a 20 % amber before i yank ... i like good strong smoke but not getting locked into the couch forgetting who or what i am and what i gotta do today lol

but thats just me

TohToh · Apr 15, 2011

stunning grow man, I was going to go with LEDs but decided to choose CFLs instead, but it looks as though I may have chosen wrong! will deffinatly be back to see the very final product, a smoke rating would be awesome too, need to know if all the flavour is still there!, do you know if your panel has UV LEDs in it? Ive heard something like a 0.10%UV power/sq meter increases resin yields, im not too sure on it, but you have alot of magic dust on those buds! SUBd

maxpesh · Apr 17, 2011

Did you ever find out what the actual power draw is using a watt meter ? It's just that I am very curious to see what your final yield per watt is gonna be :-)

StoneyC · Apr 17, 2011

i dont know what the exact power draw is so estimating is the closest i can get and im prolly just gonna go with the fact that they are 300 watts each even thought i know it wont be exact i should be in the ballpark ... but ill be sure to post what my yield per watt is im actually pretty happy with the way the nugs are swelling besides the Casey Jones i have going right now everything in the rooms is really pretty tight and dense looking while the CaseyJones has some REALLY LARGE BUDs but they are in the corner away from the most direct light so they are a lil airy but still looking sugar covered and DANK !!!!!

StoneyC · Apr 18, 2011

had the time to update real quick today ..
we are about 7 weeks into flowering and have been flushing for over a week now
got myself a jewelers loop and checking the trichs daily now not expecting to pull until they are all individually ready but hoping to be able to start pulling some around the 8 week mark

sorry the quality isnt as good as the last picture update i used the auto focus on the camera this time where as i had the time to manually focus and zoom in on some of the buds last time but they are still looking dank

Encomium · Apr 18, 2011

Man, wonderful journal. Love the last set of pics. Subbed to see what the pull is gonna be.

StoneyC · Apr 18, 2011

thanks man i appreciate the comment ... ill be sure to let all know when the trigger is starting to be pulled

KawiZZR · May 4, 2011

Just read through the whole thread, any updates? Looks like a really nice grow so far.

maxpesh · May 7, 2011

Hi StoneyC. I've looked all over for info on the actual power draw for your lights but cannot find it anywhere. It's just that my 500w blackstars use 300watts each and stealthgrow 602, 600 watts use 326 watts total. So if I were you I would buy or borrow a watt meter to test Before you publish your dry weight because don't forget ,ur using 2 of these lights and you might be using less electricity than you think and it's all about Grams/Watts, this is the basis for our argument to use Led's. Good luck :-)
