Gunna use this thread to post pictures every so often.
My new hlg 650r's came in the mail today a day earlier then expected. I have just got them hung up and they are extremely bright. I plugged both up to make sure everything works but unplugged one since im only vegging these 2 plants right now.
Currently the 2 strains i have are jungle cake(who really knows what it is but it did come from a pretty good source here in Michigan) and gg4. They came in rockwool cubes. I put them in 1 gallon pots from the cubes. Vegged did a little training then moved it to a 5 gallon pot i did some more training and topping now im just letting them grow. My plan is to cut some clones next week off each of them wait a few days then flip them to 12 12. After i get the clones ready i plan to setup the flood and drain table i have to run the clones in clay pebbles.

Also using mega crop nutes for the coco but going to swich to something else when i start the flood and drain.

ALSO I HOPE IF ANYONE HAS ANY CRITICISM THEY POST IT. Thats how i learn is by messing up. This is not my first grow i have been growing for years but i was a lazy grower. Still got real good bud but wasnt yielding close to what i should.

What i dont want in this thread is people going back and forth about which light is better or spectrum and everything else that derails threads. Lets keep it on this grow and this grow only. Thanks for reading.

I smoked jungle cake a few years back out in Cali, Probably my second favorite strain after gelato and skittles. Nice size tent you got there.

The tent is 5x10. My flood table is a 4x8 but a little bigger then that so i had to get the 5x10 to fit the table. I never even heard of it i was waiting at the clone shop and they had it on the menu so i looked it up an it looked fire but who knows what it truly is.

If its the jungle cake I got from TLC then you are in for a treat. I bought wedding cake at the same time and threw that shit out the window after lighting up the jungle.

Bad azz ! I love it ! Those lights are gorgeous ! I was looking at buying a set too but they are a touch pricy. I have 8 hlg65 already. They say it's veg only but trust me when I say they flower just fine. I get great yeilds off these bad boys. But I do honestly want those hlg650 ! I'm growing wedding cake and sensi star right now. The jungle cake is fire ! Keep us posted. May I ask how much you spent on those lights each?

So starting to see some things going on with these 2 if anyone could point me in the direction of what id appreciate it.
The jungle cake top leafs are really small and skinny
The gorilla glue leafs on top are starting to get a light green color

All this started after i switched the lights out.
Feeding 1.5 grams of mega crop each day
Ph 5.8
Temps high of 81 low of 70
Humidity hoovering around 50-60

Does anyone have any input on how to keep my humidity lower then 65 when my lights go out? When lights on its 35-40 percent but when lights go out my temp drops from 77 to 65-68. I have a 6 inch exhaust fan hooked to my filter hanging up top but it exhausts back into the room the tent is in. I have a 4 inch inline fan that i have sucking air from a living room threw the wall into the tent.

What ideas you guys got to keep the humidity down. I have a dual hose portable ac that should keep it down in the hot summer months but for a month or so i really dont want to run the ac at all until my temps are getting warm.

Went to check my room when the lights were off. Seen they still have some lights on really dim but on. Is this normal for the lights? My old cob rig never did that so im not sure if it has to do with strips

Little update
Plants are looking better the Jungle cake seems a little sensitive
Gg4 is doing good
Was having some humidity issues tried the cheaper ways to fix it but in the end i bought a dehumidifier.
So now setup is
5x10 tent in a 4x8 flood table ( not using now since its only 2 plants.
2 hlg 650r (not turned all the way up YET)
Hand watering every day at lights on
Feeding 2 grams of mega crop slowly bumping it up
6 inch ac infinity exhaust
4 inch ac infinity intake
14k dual hose ac
50 pint dehumidifier
1 wall mount (in my case 2x4 mount) isolating fan
Please give me some input or criticism on what im doing wrong or what you see wrong with any part of the setup or plants.
