And today the first components of the next grow test arrived, 2 foot by 6 by 86 inch tall rack, with 2x2 extension,


It'g going to be a hybrid hydro grow, with 6 Bridgelux Vero 29s LEDs, more to come soon...
Holy moly, that's gonna be fun... Subbed to this one already, I'll be looking out for work on the next!

So an update, on the 7th I woke up to turn the lights off and found that the tape holding the main stem down had come lose and the bud was pretty much up touching the LEDs, the cola took a great deal of damage from the light and burned\bleached about 1\3 of the bud. I guess it was pushing really hard for height and the tape was a bit shitty after adjusting it many times...

I don't know whether to prune the damaged flowers or just leave it, everything else seems to be going well.

Latest pictures, the buds seem to be taking their final shapes. Look at the frost...

So much hash will be made from those leaves.

Can you describe the differences between the 'cool white' plants and the 'warm white' plants, and the plants in the middle who are getting the mixture?

I can't believe at 51 days of flower how your leaves are so dark green and waxy.

I hope you have long flush to get that nitrogen out.

All the pants sprouted from the same bag of beans, they got moved around quite a bit until about the 3rd week of flower, when the males where removed. Most of the larger buds are from Baby in the back middle, the light she is getting is optimal.

Nutes where stopped at day 42... 1.5-2 liters of water per plant per day is what they are getting.

Good question^^^^
So what I see is that the plant under the blue light was always much shorter, seemed very healthy and lots of under canopy development seems to have smaller buds but more compact underneath, the plant under the red seemed very healthy as well and was always able to stretch out a stem if needed, where the bluer light plant was sorta stuck, only when the bluer plant stems got to about 15-17 inches of the light it could stretch out. The reddish stems dont really seem to actually know where the light source is... They have no focus in getting to the light as seem to just stretch for stem space for larger bud development.

Symmetry on the main blue stem is very very good, I would have just liked more stretch on the other stems, the reddish plant is good, but stretched a little bit to much for the best bud development IMO.

The middle is such a different story, this mo fo is on a different level, if I did not train her, she would be 2-3 feet taller then the others and ever stem is now taller and almost fatter then the other two, they are all in the same size pots, I believe not only the mix of light is helping but the extra space it has being at the back lets more light get around the plant.

So they seem calm and content at the moment, I can see the first little yellow spots coming through on the some major fan leaves, its almost sweet what is happening now, the ladys some how know this is it...

I thought to set the final mood I would run the lights down at 5 amps max the rest of the run, maybe finish off a bit softly :-o

Looking forward to the final yield. Looks like they could go a little longer, so don't rush them now. You've already made it this long. Keep it up

outstanding! bud, what is the strain in Pic 8^? You probably said, but Im lazy as hell right now, to go back and read :clap:

Looks like this strain I had and did a way with, because of the finicky-ness, but I always admired her....
