New Grower 200W PRAKASA LED lights | Dinafem Blue Widow

[lorishark]

Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum.
I'm going to show you my setup:

- After taking a look to many LED lamps, I bought this one http://www.prakasa.co.uk/200w-led-grow-lights-full-spectrum-by-prakasa

I made the box myself, using 18mm chipboard laminated wood. The box is not too tall, it is 100x100x60 mm, probably taller was better but the space I can use, really not gave me any other solution.



I mounted the lamp, lined the inside of the box with foil, added the doors, a thermo\hygro sensor and two 120 mm fans for the air circulation. Then I putted some "experiments" in :dance:
I also mounted a 13W CFL bulb to add some white (3000K) and some heat too



Here we are! After a couple of weeks with the "experiments" in, I decided to bought some Dinafem Blue Widow seeds for the first testing grow



After 2 days of in soil germination and one week of vegetation at 16\8, these are the ladies :wiggle:




I wish you like my setup sorry for the basic english

See you at the next update!

Hi Lori

I'll be buying the 200W COB as soon as i can !

I see this shop sells it for £160 at the moment :

I think 2ft (60cm) isn't tall enough for you, the pot and the lamp bring it more like 30-40 cm working room ?

Regarding your plant problem, what nutrients has it been on ?


All the best,

steely

I'm glad i helped in your decision to buy the LED

Glad your cab is 100cm tall.

You should post that in the sick plants section of the forum, i'm not sure what's going on with that plant, you will get lots of help there.

Update Day 25

Hello AF Members

I installed the SCROG net about 20 cm over the ladies



Plants are bushy :gthumb:
I increased the distance between light and girls, just for let them stretch a little



It seems like the third one feels better,
I treated her leaf-burn like a Calcium carence and I added also Zn with a generic GetGreen Nuts
In advance, I treated her sisters with the the same liquid nuts.



I would be very happy to hear any kind of advice from you guys :brow:

Keep Growing Peace
