Im not sure. I grew one plant one time it turned male. i was in a closet with cfl. I am debating my new set up and am torn between led or flourescents. from what i can tell people tend to defend what they use And poo-poo the rest. its hard to tell what is best. this is the first grow ive seen with that panel. we will have to use your journal as a litmus for it.

I've found a hundred skeptics for every LED enthusiast. It took some work to get off the ground, but LED's now are way better than even 3-5yrs ago.

Do what you want, but do research first.

I am certain that LED is the way to go for a personal grow and hid if you want to cash crop. But most i talk to say fluorescent performs the same for less. its why i want panels like this to succeed.
 
Ok so here we are today... I am flipping the room to 12/12 on Sat so I went ahead and threw my girls into 48 hrs o dark to force her to flower a little faster... I will have pics later
 
Yay finally the day has arrived... I start flowering today! I already flipped the room to 12/12 and switched the res to a transitional nutrient load. The 48 hours in dark did not hurt the girls but I did not see any change in them at all... but you never know I could see new change real soon... well time to shut it and show some pics

on a laptop, sideways ain't a thang.

But seriously, they look healthy, I'll keep watching if you keep posting.
 
Day 3 of flower, and after just 3 days you can see a noticeable difference in size... I think I am about to have to trim a little bit so they do not grow into each other. The three in hydro were vegged for 5 weeks and the 3 in coco were vegged for 3 weeks... I had a nutrient issue and I finally found the issue... Cal/Mag deficiency... I us RO water with 7ppm to start... I forgot I needed to add it to the nutes :) rookie mistake, but it happens... IM OUT!

I have a couple of free autoflowers that came with my last pack, so I decided to take advantage of the sunlight today... oh and some reading material!

So I was having an issue of my house smelling like well pot I realized that I had a fan blowing in air and I had no fan sucking anything out... which means I had too much positive pressure in the room... well easy fix... I bought an inline filter for my intake and I took the bigger more powerful fan and hooked it to the exhaust (which goes directly outside) and I didn't want any noise for my outside neighbors to hear so I also got a silencer... from outside all you see is the vent cover moving and you cannot hear a thing!
