I've been reading your thread and have to say thanks, Im new to all this and I thought I was the only one using led lights. I'm groing mango under two led panels. Not sure what the watts are though ( not labled) and I also
Have two led standard socket lights that hang they are 10 wt each and are in the warm white spectrum. My question is do you have a preffrance on light color and what should I change when flowering if anything?

i know the red helps with flowering i belive you want a 660nm.

looking good man. my four have just finished week #7 (under the 126w). week 8 started yesterday. gonna cut 2 then one each of the next 2 weeks. see how the different times change the smoke. ive got some pics that i took at the end of week 7. have a look! :bigjoint:




the last one is my background! haha they are really starting to fatten up the last few days. only my first crack at this overgrow attempt and im happy ("free" smoke!). i know where my mistakes were made (ie: drainage!) these girls would have grow a lot stronger. bah well. my next set of six seeds (Fruity Chronic Juice (FCJ), Hawaiian Snow, Trainwreck, The Chruch, NL5 Haze Mist, and Cheisel). I'll let ya know what happens there for sure.

Planning a move so once I'm settled, pics of my final room will follow (including more bud porn!) happy growing! bongsmilie

that 180 seems to have an edge in flower but 126 smoked it in veg maybe both lights are needed to do veg flower chambers for optimum set up

today i went into my room with a bad picture. my BD on the PS side that had the biggest buds of all of the plants, had some of my heaviest branches laying on the ground. the main stock was still standing but 4 of my heavy branches folded over with her leaves droped over. i don't know what happen? if it was too much weight or what? i feed her with some B1 and tied her branches back up hoping she will get back into shape by helping her support herself. i am really bummed out, she was my best plant. i hope she will pull threw. i hope she makes it!!!

ya i hope she dose, you guys light one up for her:joint: at least she wasn't totally on the floor, just my biger bud branches.:cry: least she's still alive, but i am sure this will hurt my yield from a $hit load of stress on her.

[here are some pics of the fallen plant. the whole plant seems to be doing ok, just the fallen branches don't look like their going to pull threw. two main branches got hurt and allot of bottom branches also got hurt. hopefully those branches will pull threw in a few days. but at least the whole plant ant dead even is she was stressed out of some yield, at least i will get something from her. ill keep an eye on her and see if she keeps growing as normal, or if she starts to lag.
