The goals of this grow are to cut down the energy used in my grow. and to increase the grams per watt.

The Lights: 2 360 Watt Advanced grow led panels. 1/3 of the led's in 1 of the panels are out. (craigslist) approx 600Watts of Led light is going to be produced.
The Chambers: 1. 4x4x8 Tent with both of the led panels, they will probably be on a light mover. 3x3 ebb and flow table with 12 plants.
The Genetics: To start we went with 6 afghani and 6 Burmese Kush, aka BuKu. The 6-7 1/2 week flower period is attractive, These will be my christmas trees. the Afghani also boasts a 25% CBD claim so I am going to have that lab tested..this would be great for my medical condition ;)
The Setup: Will be ebb n flow or I will convert it to a drip system. I haven't decided yet. Drip system sounds better to me. Input is appreciated. I'm thinking about going n fabbing a light mover for the leds i think it would be gangster. Btw I'm thinking about laying the tent down so its 8 feet long n going about it that way.

The Pics: Are coming, self-proclaimed photographer just wait.

Day 1: Today. They went under the Led panel that is 1/3 broken hanging about 24" above the canopy.

You should look into repairing that LED cant imagine it would be too hard. Drip sounds better imo unless youre going to have alot of plants.

the plan is to put 3 plants per ten gallon bag and veg for 2 weeks try to keep them growing horizontally and then flower perpetually rotating 3 plants at a time.

you got her bud, sounds like a great plan. 3 plants per 10 gallons because they are reg seeds so you are hoping for 1-2 plants per 10 gallons? that is what i have been doing with my reg seeds lately... looking forward to see how well you will do with your setup! enjoy growing my friend

couple sick pics of the plants on www.wegrowaz.com. They didnt look too good a week ago and one of them did get pretty sick on thurs/fri but they are doing better now.

today/yest i got the drip irrigation retrofitted to the aquarium pumps and once i program this 7day timer it shud run itself for 2 weeks at a time, we'll be testing tomorrow.

not to mention the wifi camera we cyber monday spurged on that has 360 degree motion and night vision, u control it from a droid or iphone.

Peace out players.

btw, 3 days into flower of the 49 day cycle from what the grower that gave me the genetics said.

The drip irrigation system is pretty sick im proud of myself for doing it without any advanced PLC's or Greenhouse control systems. this is after all still a hobby.

Today was the end of WK 3 of flower. Everythang is gonna start to pop this week I think. Its supposed to be 7 seven week strains, been growing for a minute now and If they are done in 7 I'll be pretty amazed. Again the strains are Burmese Kush and Afghani under 600 W of LED, I am considering throwing the HPS in with the new Hortilux starting tomorrow!! Last four weeks Go HARDD

I started an Instagram for this garden and my medical marijuana endeavors, its name is wegrowgardenz

Have now put in the 600W HPS w new bulb, taken down one of the LED's and I'm trying to get the company to warranty it. Running 360 W LED and 600 W HPS Friday will be day 35 of Flowering. I'll hit you guys w some new pics soon. Chop date is somewhere around 50-55 Days im hoping.

Depression has over come my thread.
My Advanced LED grow lights 360W at least that's what they say, only draw 160 watts of electricity. So anyways due to the weak light at the start of flowering, They are definitely behind schedule. Now there is a 600WATT pulling 630Watts just beasting and my buds are actually getting close now. They look quite nice, I have the one fully functioning LED in there as well but I don't think its really doing much. I will be adding CO2 and fan controllers to the shed after we harvest, which I would say is no more than a week away with me leaning on this weekend.

good luck with the warranty dude that sucks...i almost bought and led panel off craigs list in sept dude was saying it was covered under warranty. he was lying. i went buy it from him and suddenly a row of led's were out and he was going to have to contact adv led about it. he got back to me saying that actually those were the infrared lights. i called to check and adv led told me the infrared lights are scattered and not in rows and his unit was malfunctioning and secondly that their warranties are only good for the original owner and is void if you sell the unit to some one else. the dude was staight up trying to scam me on craigs list i called him out on it and denied it...i might still have his email if you think that's the guy. fyi dr grow rights warranties do transfer if you buy them used! the warranties follow the equipment via a serial #, aslo only buy his later 3w models. i hear his first attempt wasn't as good. oh yeah new they are way cheaper per watt from the wall the adv led...as in 1/2 the price
