Third grow, first using LED's! Growing in a crawlspace. Decided to go with LED's. Was burning four 1000W HID on magnetic ballasts. Tired of trying to control the heat and for safety reasons. Electric is just an added bonus but not the main reason I switched. After months of research on various forums I decided to go with 357magPlus LED's. Here is a pic of my room with the lights installed. This was last week.

Here's a little more info about what I have going. White Widow strain in 5gal smart pots with Botanicare Readygro using the same Advanced Nutrients I did on my last two grows using HID except for the addition of CalMag/Bloom. Here are some pics I took last night. I would say at this point which is day 10 of flower, compared to my last two identical grows using HID's that the stigmas are much more developed. At this point with my HID's there were no visible stigmas on the plants. I would say they're probably a week ahead based on my last two grows. You can also see the difference in plant size from my first post.

Here's some pics I took earlier this week, which would be day 16 of flower. Everything is going pretty smooth. Not a whole lot to report. I'll take some more pics tonight.
