Irish Boys Return Of The Inferno With The Spectra 180's

KawiZZR said:
I know this is off topic and if irish would like I will remove it, but just wanted to say that I am extremely impressed by the service from GLH. I ordered a light from Mike and when it arrived today there was an issue with it (pretty sure something must have happened to it during shipping), I left a message and within an hour I got a call back from Mike. He had me check the connections in the light real quick, but I couldn't find anything wrong so he is sending me a replacement unit and a return label to send the one I have back. To get that kind of customer service is almost unheard of these days, and the way in which he approached and handled the situation gives me even more confidence in his company.

that would never happen with black dog led, their warranty sucks!
 
i grow at night too ;) its the only way i got through the summer season, even with led's and a six inch fan suckin my room dry about every ten seconds lol it was still 90+ degrees most of the time. The nug turned out nice a dense, but i got root rot because of running a single waterfarm under a scrog, pretty hard to know if you got root rot when you cant even see your roots lol. If i hadnt run at night i woulda been screwed, lights off during the daytime with the fan on cycling the air and giving airflow it was still 90 degrees in there just not quite as high in the 90's as with the lights on. Temps lowered near the end of the night since the spot wasnt so heat saturated anymore but man without led's i wouldnt have got shit if i had gotten root rot like i did. they saved my ass and so did running with my schedule flipped. Sucks for watching your plants but id rather have healthy plants than sick ones.

Lookin good in here irish
 
I am growing with a single spectra 180 - still vegging, lost a week with bad vibes and not enough chunky pearlite was given a Quantum Meter ( model BQM) and was wondering if anyone had any experience or insite into its use as it might relate to LED 's. Someone called it a PAR M<eter or Photosynthetic Photon Flux Meter...

sorry bro never heard of it?
 
hers some pics of my girls flowering.. i think its been 1 week since i changed the light times? anyways their on their way flowering and have the hairs all shooting up like they do before the forum buds.

its amazing how green and healthy the Dyna gro is keeping them, their so green and healthy its unreal. having the cooler nights now too care of the yellow new growth and now everything is green.

i just gave them a feeding of VF-11 @ 2oz per gal to see what happens?


lights are about 13-14" from the plants

ya bro it works Great! give it a try and you will be amazed and look how clean ur ash will be. i have also found taking all the fan leaves off a few days before harvest helps also, but i am too lazy to do all that most times. i leave my fans on for mold issues would suck to get that at the end of the grow.lol.

only turn on the 2nd lights if they have grown out of their foot print IMO. and ya for that time they are pretty short could be the strain though? others seem to have very fast veg time with the lights.

i got the pots from the hydro store but their called Geo pots. they are not made for wicking but for air pruning, i just made them work into my system for bottom feeding.. please post a link of that gravity fed

I can't find that link atm, but I'm gonna keep searching around for it until I find it. Also, thanks for the heads up on the Geo pots. A friend of mine showed me a hydro store magazine that has several sizes for sale. They have a 7 gallon for $5.62 I think I want 4...
 
thanks guys!

i had to defoliat a little, it was very hard to do because the leaves are so healthy, but i could see allot more light hitting threw after so all is good. i only cut what i felt needed to be cut and left allot in place as long as it wasnt major shade.

the girls are looking better and better every day and are getting frosted already, i can see it building up, i havent even feed the organics in the bloom yet either, only DG and 1 time VF-11

lots of bud sites on the branches are stacked so thats great news , i am just so happy i have buds now.lol

They seem to have really turned around, of course your heat has to have broken by now.

2 Liter buds are cool mmmkaaaaay? Looking great man, I'm really happy for you after all of the experimenting you did this summer. Those plants look healthy as all hell, can't wait for fat n frosty! I added a link to my LED tent to my sig, should be starting flower soon, please follow along when you have time. Thanks for all of your help with these lights, hoping for a successful run!

nice man, interesting you mention early frost, mine was strain related this time i know because im runnin the same lights, but my agent orange was fuckin frosty as balls by week 3 of flower and i mean FROSTY,

You runnin the same strain and noticing earlier trichome development? Nice, side note check out my micro grow i just updated it.
 
Stellar resin production is good to hear guys! I'm hoping for the same luck. I want that dankity dank sheiiit. YOU KNOW!

Here I sit all blazed out on some Super Lemon Haze, amazing shit by the way the aroma is something special. But here I sit and I realize that you probably have the best names for your threads. Haha. Return of the Inferno. F&*K CASEY JONES!
