Hi all,

I've posted a couple more threads on this grow, but this is my second grow. 100% organic super soil- amended. Then top dressed throughout the grow. I Schwazzed them yesterday (day 2 feedback if I did it right. I messed up my first grow doing it

Am I right in thinking you just said you messed up your first grow schwazzing and now you’ve schwazzed your second grow after not doing it right the first time?

sorry but that seems a little counter initiative to me.

Anyway back on point.

They look good.
Green and healthy.

This is my scrog at day 61 of 12/12 no schwazzing

first room pic is before removing any leaves

Last room pic is after removing around 60 leaves last night.

Yeah on my first time doing it I got bad info and did the defoiliation to late I was told to do it at the end of week 4... it messed up my yeild in the long run. But I'm a fast learner and my motto is your not going to get better if you don't practice. My first grow I got between 6-8oz per plant of some primo nug. Which is still good yeild, but I was hoping for more because each plant was grown in a 3x3 area in a 15 gal pot. I tweaked what I'm doing a bit, instead of growing 1 plant per 3x3 I am doing 6 plants in a 4x4. This time I'm focused on increasing the yeild. I upgraded lighting, soil recipe, ventilation, and decreased pot size to 5 gallon pot per plant. Screen is set 12 in above pot and pot is 12in tall. Week one of stretch they grew 8 in above screen and week 2 they added on another 8in and from that point by day 20 they added on an additional 16 in. So they are sitting about 28-32 in above screen for the tallest.

How high should LED'S be above canopy?

I don’t follow rules lol.

This now is about 18” I don’t use ppfd meters or anything.

I only raised it up slightly as I was dealing with an uptake issue with Ca and wanted to rule out light intensity being the issue.

When I started my seed under this light (only my first run using LED) it was above 24” above the pot and on 50% power approx.

then as the plant grew the % increased rather than lowering the light etc.

This is one plant in 2 gallons of coco on a 3ft x 2.7ft screen.

Checked it out looks great. Question how are you doing auto irrigation and auto feeding? Is it two separate systems or all in one and your doing fertigation? What is the frequency of watering and feeding?

Post thought back to the LEDs... So I now have the Mars Hydro TSW 2000 and the Vivosun VS 2000. The Vivosun is much briter than the Vivosun. Originally at the beginning of flower the light was 24in above canopy. I'm running at 100% on both lights. Now today most of the canopy is 6-10in away from light. The light holder that I built is now not tall enough to create 24in. But since stretch is done if I mounted to ceiling I would have 24in. Is 8-10 in to close? Recommend height seems to be 18 to 24 in for flowering. I'm assuming I have to raise or they will get light burn/bleaching. So far I have not got any but it has only been a couple days.

No. I grow in coco and you feed every watering with coco. never plain water.

i have a catch pan under the plant as the plant is raised up off the floor on a DIY table.

How do you have it so it is automated?

Here’s my build of the system.

It runs on a timer that switches the pump on and off.

I have valves to control flow amount
