Flowering with Cree bulbs

Day 35,36" tall so no vertical growth just putting on bud.Well I've had to add another stake and basically tie off every branch because she can't support her own weight.At this rate if this goes 65 days I'll probably have to support some of her from above.I seem to have the mag def under control after flushing with 7 gals of ph'ed water and some camg+.

Careful Captain M. I heard Blackstar have put a bounty on yer head to stop this grow! Their ninjas will find you soon! LOL.

This is shaping up real nice for what it is. Plus rep to the Cap'n! Great grow.
 
Yea,I'm pleasantly surprised at this.I was thinking it would do ok but this is way more than I expected.I have a friend with the same cut under 1000 HPS and he told me mine puts his to shame,who would of thought.

I follow all your threads Pet but I guess I don't always chime in so I might not be subscribed.

188 watts of Cree bulbs,152 watts of 2700k and 36 watts of 5000k with a 730nm flower initiator at lights out.I get a nice aroma when opening the cabinet.
 
Lookin bómb.

Hey are those lamp holder / adapters on your ceiling from that same lamp site? I couldn't find anything like those on there.
 
Day 49,still plumping up nicely.Closeups are from a bud almost half way down in the bud area.

Wow now that's sexy. You are stoked!

Those penetrate very well and from a good distance too.
 
This is a cut from a friends plant that had to go 65 days to finish under a 1000 watt HPS.At day 49 it doesn't look like this will need to go another 16 days.Thought I read somewhere that the 730 nm can also shorten the flower cycle.I'm wondering if I should drop from 13/11 to 12/12 to make her finish stronger.
 
Hiya Captain! I'm on my first run of a 420-Pontoon combo 14/10 flowering cycle with the GSC. I can't state conclusively yet that the 730 at lights out has gotten me a sooner finish but I do think, at least on the GSC, the flip should go 12/12 until you see pistils then move up to a 14/10 in gradual increases 15 minute increases. When I flipped to a 14/10 it took 2 weeks for the GSC to show pistils. Your garden is looking good bro!

IMHO, lowering amount of day light will key them that it's time to hurry up and finish. I drop from 12/12 to 11/13 and during the last 5-7 days 10/14
