Whats up guys jonnyboy here...
I am about to take you with me on my journey to finding out just how well these bright cool lights work. So far the light seems to be doing really well. Its very bright. 2 weeks and 3 days in and this lady is looking nice and green.. LST was started today. I will be updating you guys every few days or so. This thread is also for anyone out there wondering just how well the ts600 will do. Tune in guys thanks for watching!!

Here she is today with no LST!! She stood straight up after only a couple hours!! Bud sites are noticeably bigger from the 48 hour LST... Shes been 24 hours on and foliar sprayed with 5.9 phd distilled water and cal-mag... Little bit of residue on leaves not sure why but im going to gently clean the leaves here soon. Im thinking i sprayed it alittle too much and the calmag might have left a little residue behind. I ended up putting some foil shiny side out just for the little extra reflection of the light. But so far shes doing great under the TS600! I have had previous "600" watt lights that were not even CLOSE to competing with this light. Very soon i will be purchasing a ts1000 for about 3 more flowers! I have some durban poison and flow waiting to be put in soil. Thanks for reading guys see ya in a few days!

They look nice green and healthy! I always love seeing the SOG stuff i cant wait to get a more powerful light for more coverage! Only issue i have is im going through lockout right now. Run off was 5.4.... When it dries im going to flush with about 5 gallons of water phd at about 6.8 or 7.0 to bring that ph back up... Im not too worried about nutes right now im growing in happy frog so it already has what it needs for the first 3 weeks

Crazy as this sounds I do e&f hydro but use a soiless mix (sunshine #4 ) they're not meant to be used in a hydro setup I've also used royal gold basement mix what differs these from coco is you feed in the 6.2 to 6.7 range my tap water combined with megacrop stays right in that range with no adjustments whatsoever I run no additives either here is the single plant in my 3x3 I'm pretty happy with this method 20200918_172435.jpg20200918_172856.jpg20200918_172913.jpg20200918_173054.jpg20200918_173113.jpg

Here she is guys 3 weeks and 2 days in and shes looking good still... Ive been tucking leaves as you can see.. I havent measured but i would say she is about 10 inches tall... By the end of the week she should be about 12 inches tall and ready for the flowering stretch.. Preflowers are everywhere on her now... She is smelling very good! When i come in to switch the light on the room smells very much like skunk or some really good ishh lol i didnt know they could smell so good even without the buds yet lol

Today marks 3 weeks and 6 days almost one month and shes looking good! Nice and green and perky. Everyday she stays with her leaves upwards pointing to the light. Im hopeing shes is ok she looks great. I tucked the biggest fan leaves at the top under some other branches to give the bud sights more light. Ph keeps going down so i have to keep flushing. Ive done 5 gallons RO and lastly when my run off is finally atleast 6.1 i add nutes to the last gallon. She will most likely be growing an inch a day from now on. She is about 12 inches away from the light. I was thinking she might be too close which is why she keeps pointing towards the sky but not sure. Might move light up a bit more. What do you guys think???

She's gonna make you proud after the heatwaves have passed I've started getting my stuff to program when you pull those branches down like that it exposes more fans to light your rate of growth should pick up from here on out
