Northern Lights and Querkle/ 260w's of LED

Hey guys, This will be my 2nd grow and here are the details.

Strains- 2 feminised Nirvana Northern Lights, and 3 TGA Subcool's Querkle.

Medium- Im using Coco Hempy buckets in 2gallon containers.

Lights- I have a Pro-Grow 180, and a Blackstar 240. I'll be vegging in the All Blue Spectrum for the first week or two just with the PG180, Then i'll put it on red/blue spectrum and add the blackstar when they are ready.

Nutes- Ill be using the Canna COCO line(A + B, Rhizotonic, Cannazyme) and Cal-Mag. I also have superthrive.

I think that covers it, Ill be growing in my closet, I had a tent but I took it down because it was way too noticable to just have a big tent in my room.
If you guys have any questions or comments, don't be afraid to post them.

Ill be putting up some pics of my lights and my last grow right now, then show you guys the new seedlings tomorrow.
Heres the Pics.

Hey guys, So its officially Day 1, I got some new pics of my lil babies and my setup. I know its not as good as my tent that I have, but It'll have to do. Im just happy that I know It only took my like 2 minutes to put together lol, and it would take me even less time to take it down. Im not going to be taking Individual pictures of each plant till they get a little bigger, so here are some group shots. Enjoi and tell me what you think.



Not much right now, but they're all above ground so thats good enough for me

Thanks, yea I got the Fem seeds, dont like to buy regular unless I have to lol. Yeah, I'll definitely check your grow out, and my LED is just in the blue spectrum. Its had a switchable spectrum think on it that lets you choose blue, red, or both blue and red(purple)...Thanks alot and welcome

Hey guys, day 3 here for all the young seedlings. Was wondering when a good time to feed in coco was? I was thinking about 1 1/2 weeks from now, any advice?

nice pics man. not sure about feeding in coco. i just use a light soil/perlite mix and going to start adding nutes at the start of flower in a few weeks time. ill post up some pics later of my grow at day 16. normally when the plant turns a lighter green and the newer growth is light green it is time to start adding nutes. im pretty sure u will be fine to start feeding in a week and a half time although i dont use coco and never have

You can use mylar, or you could just paint it white, either way the light will get reflected

Cool setup and great strains. Interested to see where this goes.

Hey guys, Seedling been growing a lil bit, nothing to exciting tho. I gave them their first watering yesterday and added 5ml of Rhizotonic, just to get their roots to start developing. I had it on all blue spectrum till yesterday, now I keep it on Purple for the rest of the grow.

Here are some pics.

Group Shot.


Pics of the other Specs for fun



Northern Lights #2 and #1


Didn't wanna add pics of the querkle's as they all look the same lol.
Let me know what you think.

very nice. they look just like mine did haha. when you say you are putting them on purple spec why is that? when are you planning to put them in flower? im going to start 12/12 at the end of the month

All the purple spectrum is, is when both the red and blue are on. If I just have the blue, it will be only half the lights and half the watts, same with red because 1/2 the lights are blue and 1/2 are red. So if I turn both red/blue(purple) lights on and it gives more watts than just having one spec on.

And, I just got a smaller tent today, so I put the querkle's in the tent with the blackstar and I'll start flowering them tonight for a 12/12 from seed pretty much. The northern Lights, I'm planning on scrogging, so they'll be vegging for a while haha.

Your prity much in the same boat as me, i moved outta the grow tent and bought a double wardrobe and two blackstar 240's, am only doing one monster plant under them with the lights hung like this / \ its my first time using led and my leaves have all turned yellow and are burning away, i am told i need calmag and revive which is on the way, they say the uv light in the blackstar makes the plant use more cheleted nutrients which calmag will fix, fingers crossed

Yeah, I heard that before, especially in coco because its already prone to Cal-Mag deficiencies. You got any pics of your setup? I would have went with 2 blackstar, but I bought the Pro-Grow first without looking at the Blackstart. I'm saving up for another tho

i do but i am afraid it is nothing to be proud of, the leaves are just burning away but the postman will bring the cure today i hope. the strain is northern lights x big bud from world of seeds and the little one if afghan kush landrace, after they are done i am switching to coco and just one plant

PH problem? also, your tent looks awesome with two blackstars, and yeah, after this grow Im definitely sticking to 1 plant at a time. I just got a new tent that's 1'4x1'4x3'11 feet and the blackstar fits just perfectly in there I was also looking at those Big Bud X Northern lights seeds, but just decided to go with the normal Northern Lights

thats not a tent your looking at, i took a pair of scissors to the tent and used the mylar to line my wardrobe like this

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates, My internet was out...
Anyways, its day 14 for them all, and its day 1 for my new Royal Queen's Blue Mistic.
I Transplanted all the Querkle plants into 2 Liter Coco Hempy's, but I think I'm going to be giving them to my friend to grow out, since he has nothing to grow right now. In return, If he gets a female, he'll give me a couple clones from it. I don't really have enough room for them with what I plan on doing.
The Blue Mistic will be in the 16oz cup for like a week, then I'll transplant it into a hempy as well. So I'll have 2 northern Lights and 1 Blue Mistic, I made a scrog screen to fit perfectly in my 1'4x1'4 tent so I'm going to scrog one of the NL and keep the other and the Blue Mystic to take cutting from for a while.

Enough talking, here are some pictures

Hey guys, I decided to put the other LED in the closet with the plants, temps with both of the LED's in the closet are around 77-78F, and I'm not really sure about humidity, I just mist them once in the morning and once right before lights out. I have them on a 20/4 schedule still from 10pm-2am, but im thinking about switching it to Noon-4pm during the hottest time of the day. Its about 100-105F during those times where I'm at, so that should bring the temps down a little.

My last feeding was earlier this morning-
-Canna Coco A- 6ml/gal
-Canna Coco B- 6ml/gal
-Rhizotonic- 3ml/gal
-Cal-Mag- 1.5ml/gal
-SuperThrive- 1 Drop/Gal

And it takes about 1/2 gallon to water each plant enough to have a tiny bit on Runoff out of the res.

Here are some pics, Let me know what you think
