i just finished 8 weeks of the growth cycle. I switched them over to flower today. i know they're a bit small, but i really dont want this grow to take 9 months, lmao. Whatever I do get off of them will tell us the effectiveness of the lights as far as quality/quantity X height. The tallest is 8 and 1/2 inches tall. I'm thinking it should finish at around 14 to 16 inches. I two of my cronic buddies lined up to judge them when they're done and myself of course. one strain is Juicy Fruit one is Texada Timewarp. I cant be sure, but I think one of the wee tiny ones is a kahuna.

I was talking to one of my friends on a med card and he was telling me about their growers friend who uses LED's and Hydro, I can't remember his average yield but it was well over a half pound a plant. So, I'm thinking you could do wonders with those puppies, you might just need a few more of them. These are looking great though.

Just wondering if anyone out there would like to give me an opinion on the sex of my plants. I think they're all girls, they look right to me at the nodes anyway. If I'm right, all the plants I've got are girls, hehe. I've got more pics of them but I'm having trouble uploading pics right now. They're soooo pretty, hahahaaaa

They look good, but seriously, put the lights within an inch and I think u will see much better results. LED's can be touching the plant thru most of the grow and wont affect the plant from what I have heard. The best thing about them is the proper spectrum they put out, and the fact that no ultraviolet rays emitted, even right up close, which means crystalized trichomes, undamaged, holding maddddd THC

Ok, so I got feeling a little Mgyver-ish today and decidid to do something about the lights. Found an old piece of wood, sawed it in half and put it underneath the board where the single flat panel was. This lats me get the lights alot closer to the plants now because the clamps tha hold my lights can turn at a better angle. You like?

Oh, Happy Jesus Bunny Day!
