might want to stick some 30 degree optics on those so you really concentrate the light on them

or bundle up the plants and bundle up all the lights on top so you make use of all available lights

We're only talking 1W diodes. Idk, I'm not exactly thinkin' lazerz here, but to evenly mix the spectrum of light you'd have to raise the panel which would equate to about the same umol yet with lower efficiency due to the optics.

Didn't Hydro Grow LED use 30 and 60 degree optics a few years back on their "Penetrator"? It was still the best LED panel around, no?

Picolada i believe that the stress of plants in the beginning has begun and left what you say?:mrgreen:


Basically i believe that also in your precedents grow Ganja, again the same happened,so it is a completely natural phenomenon;
Your plants run with 1000 afterwards the first days and this are interesting:bigjoint:

Stress isn't natural. This happenes because of me, sometimes on purpose, sometimes by mistake.

These 7 plants is what is left from 30 seeds that where exposed to conditions like drought, high and low temperatures, and litle water for the fist 2 days

I think that now i have some very strong plants, capable to resist in any extreme conditions tha may occur such as blackout or anything else

The 2 mexicans seem to be the toughest till now, maybe later on i will cross them to keep some seeds.:weed:

When you have seeds you can keep experimenting without cost:bigjoint:

You guys know how I intuit things. Had I followed it early this week (when I thought about the DLP bulb in my TV might need replacing, I would have had a spare by now) and guess what, fucking bulb blew yesterday, and this weekend is 4 NFL playoff games. It's my only tv- a 60" to boot. So with that said...

I believe that during the various stages of growth some different pH value are in order. I just don't know which to use when. I shoot for 5.6-5.8+, but 6.0 might be better for.. veg, flower? Anybody?

At the moment ,there's plenty of air current ...So to strenghten the main stalk.
That's why older leaves are wilted downwards ...
They suffer from dehydration ...
Ph keeps rising to up to 6.5 ....
I'll try to maintain it ,between 5.5 to 6 ...

4 panels veg 22/2 , an hour later 4 panels ΑΑ 22/2 .
so I have morning , 4 panels 1 hour , 8 panels 21 hour ,and afternoon 4 panels 1 hour.

Hi Ganja 2. Looking good. Just got a question about your setup. I see you have a top drip and I'm wondering if you run that constantly or at certain times? Would appreciate some feedback..... I'm going to run a similar setup.

The water runs constantly, there are two airpumps for extra oxygen in the central tank.
The system is comprised of 7 units and a central tank. Each unit is made from four parts, a) a 12 litre net pot with hydroton and ofc the plant, b)the lid where the pot rests, c) a 12 litre tank with holes in the bottom, where the roots end up, and d) a 22 litre tank which keeps 10 litres of water and connects with all the rest. I can work with as low as 40 litres and as high as 100 litres. The roots are in the air, getting constantly wet. In case of power failure or if the pump goes bust, under the roots there are always 10 litres of water that will provide 99.9% humidity to the roots without them being submerged in it.
