Grow update at 6.5 weeks: Jelly Pie in the middle and the younger plant in the left rear, the other plants are Doc Holiday. Doc Holiday. I am hoping these guys fill out more, but they are frosty af and pretty sexy! Jelly Pie. Smaller yield than the Doc's, but still very nice. Full...

That's what I do -- pop 5 or so at a time and clone them all as soon as I can. I usually get at least 1 very good female from the 5 seeds that I can keep cloning so I can keep the pheno around for a while. Also, my first run of any strain/pheno is not going to be my best run. The clones seem...

At 5.5 weeks into flower.

They grew to within about 5" of the light. The light is 3 QBs running at 285 watts. I reconfigured a bit and they are now about 9" away. I figure if I lose an inch off the tops, oh well.

This is proof there is a limit to how close you can have quantum boards to your plants.

Update on the Doc Holidays and Jelly Pie plants. I took this pic this morning with lights off. Plants are around day 40 since first pistils and are becoming frost monsters.

I agree, nute burn is causing the problem. And please don't say you have a 2000 watt light. 2000 watts would light your tent on fire. What light -exactly- do you have?

Wrong. That's my DIY light setup in my 5x5 tent with 4 plants. How many pics do you want? My original light build thread. https://www.rollitup.org/t/can-700-watts-of-led-strips-grow-trees.946736/page-16

Lol. I, too, am a broke DIY guy. Maybe one day I can have an awesome $450 set up. Hopefully...

Well, I am a cheap bastard, but not afraid to spend money to get more bud. I run 285 watts of lighting and maybe another 100 watts for fans and air pumps (probably less than 100 watts). This grow has been 12/12 from seed. So (.285 kw per hour x 12 hours) + (.100 kw x 24 hours) = 5.82 kw per...

Update on my Doc Holidays and Jelly Pie at almost 4 weeks since first pistils: That Doc in the right rear has been a superstar this whole grow: First to show pistils, fastest grower, etc. Just gotta wait for the smoke report. All plants were topped once. The super Doc there is 35" tall. I...

Gotta love Blumats for raising roots up out of the coco. Do you get mushrooms growing in your pots? I kept getting yellow mushrooms sprouting up that I just kept plucking before they would release spores everywhere.

Homebuilt Acuity strip. 800 watts in my 5x5.

What leds are you running? Not all leds are created equal.

Bushes are overrated. This isn't 1970s weed. "Does the carpet match the curtains?" I don't like carpet -- give me waxed linoleum.

The closest to your budget lighting from the upper tier/super high quality lights are these: https://timbergrowlights.com/model-2vl/ This would be the minimum amount of wattage I would suggest in your 7 sq ft tent. 210 watts of high quality cobs gives you 30 watts per square foot. The fixture...

Here is an under canopy shot of JP and Doc. Both were topped once.

Just thought I would show an under canopy shot of a couple plants.

Vipar is about the same as bestva. Look at the actual watts of any of those cheap Chinese watts and go by that to figure your watts per square foot. You want at least 30 watts per sq ft. 40 or 50 may be better if you go with those cheap leds. Or buy a 600 watt HID.

I am running my little 2'x3' grow a little harder using an HLG-240h-1750 to 3 quantum boards at 285 watts (Timber built this light for me). My plants are 7 weeks from seed, 2 strains, several different phenos, 12/12 from seed. You can see a big difference in heights here which isn't ideal, but...
