Welcome to RIU, nice pics for your first grow - looking pretty solid. Well done with the LED setup as well, and good choice of nutes and soil. :D

Thanks this site helped me the whole way through. I did alot of research before I bought anything or started the grow and had no major problems through the grow.

It's all part of the learning curve, and RIU has a wealth of accurate knowledge to assist. :)

I'm impressed with the LED.. many have shot down LED and said it was inefficient.. I haven't played with LED at all yet, but this makes me want to play with it.

How was your LED experience? My research largely says that you have good veg but theres a chance at buds being a little "diff't" come harvest time. Id appreciate some experienced feedback

May I ask what LED did you use, I am sold on the idea just not sure which one will do the job.
Did you use 100% LED, what was your sq ft cover area?
Looks like a great grow, proud of you my friend.

We grow hibiscus and plumeria so yes I have grown plants before just not cannabis. The tent is 2ft by 3ft and veg through the first 5 weeks of flower I had just the one 240 LED from HTG Supply. I got the other one from a friend who bought the same light as me and never started his grow. I think the extra light was good. I also was worried about LED since alot of people knock it, but I am impressed with it. I am a legal medical user so not worried about getting busted but did not want everyone who comes over to know my business. With both LED and bottom cfl for added light my tent that had to be built inside of the closet that i put it in stays 73 degrees with a 4 inch exhuast with carbon filter. I am know expert but the buds seem very compact and dense. The bottom popcorn are a little small and light but the top cola's and buds seem fine to me. Trichs are about 2 percent amber so should know soon. I am hooked and just hope one day I can come home with out running to the tent to check on the girls. I think I will be sad when I have to cut them down but hey once i get to smoke them I am sure I will have a smile again.
