I'm not expecting much stretch at all really. Hopefully they stretch a little to fill things in, but we'll see.

It feels really good to open the door and see this instead of the sad plants that were there earlier in the year.

I gotta imagine it feels insanely good :). I know how upset I've got at times when my garden wasn't doing what it was supposed to, and inturn how great I've felt when it was back on track!

Jig you have got it dialed in!

Those lights are phenomenal! Look at that beautiful deep forest green color! The fan leaves are getting huge!

Great job - the waterfall sound is so soothing :)

What nutes are you using? Did you add any CalMag? Are you noticing any changes in nute use from LED light?


Cheers,
Mo

I use Dutch Master nutes. Veg A+B, Silica, Zone and as you mentioned a little Cal-Mag. I'm using tap water, but a few people mentioned adding some calcium, or magnesium, one of those... so I did. Not too much, only like 3mL per gallon. They are a great color, and the big leaves are amazing. I don't measure ppms and am running different strains, so hard to compare about nute use... but if anything I would say they are less hungry than they were before. Might be down to temps being that they are cooler now??? This is where I don't know much. I just follow the nutrient calendar for the most part... add a little less or a little more if they look burnt or hungry. I shouldn't admit it... but I still haven't pH'd the water since giving them a new mix the other day. They seem alright, I'm sure it's ok. lol

Well said bro.

Here's what's up in the closet. I flipped the switch yesterday, so last night was their first (really second) night of 12 hours dark. I'm stoked to see what these lights can do in flower. Fingers crossed.

Yes they have indeed gotten a bit bigger. we'll see if I made a big mistake letting them go the extra week or so. It's a bit crowded already and there aren't any buds yet.

in theory they shouldn't stretch too much, but reality is, you are going to find out pretty soon lol. i actually think it will be your best yield from the tubes.

hahaha they have to make a next gen noise canceler for video cameras for indoor growers. Every video sounds the same hummmmmmmmmmmmmm followed by someone trying to speak over it haha. If only we didnt need so much air movement. Ive tried with programs and they all fuck up the voice too much. hahaha

I think you're fucked! I still say train em sideways even if they end up in a dark corner I think they'll get more light than if you let them go up. Or up then out, the beauty of having a screen to tie off to!

The girls look lush bud. Nice node spacing. Might wanna get going tying though man. Gonna be tough to control in a week. Just thought I'd tell ya, I ended up switching my screen around so I can tie the girls back to the screen. Also cleaned out the tent a little. I got a couple monsters in there right now. I'll try to get some pics up.

Looks like you're enjoy the fruits of the tubes again. Hope the girls continue to do well under the LED.
