Ok so 1st round with this light was only ok but this was due to my incompetence! :nono:
Realised at the end of the grow that the voltage on the driver was turned down so I ran the light way underpowered maybe under 50% as I took a lux reading using an app and it was at 27000 lux at 9 inches, now at 9 inches it is now reading over 100000, I also had root rot issues just before flipping to flower, again my fault as i decided to try an air diffuser ring instead of air stones and didn't realise they got blocked real quick and my roots were sitting in stagnated water!
:redcard:
Anyway I'm determined not to make these errors this time and try to do this light justice! :baked:
So I germinated 3 days ago, I soaked Rockwall cubes in ph water with Rhizotonic and mycorr threw the seeds in, put in a tupaware box wrapped a towell round it and placed on my router, so far 1 kush and both cheese have sprouted with 1 kush to go, I will then choose 1 of each strain.
Here they are :woohoo:

Nice one bro I'll grab a seat n follow along .
I'm a huge fan of cheese
Can't beat a good bit of cheese for flavour imo, hopefully this version is going to be pure funk, really want something that stinks to the high heavens

Who's the breeder of that one? I'm definitely going to grow out some big buddha cheese at some point and they also do an auto version, I remember back in the day, all the dank cheese I got was from there genetics.

Edit - just noticed you already said hso :baked:

Day 7 for cheese
Day 6 for kush

These are the 2 I chose which was easy for the kush as other one I germed was a mutant, first true set of leaves were at a strange angle and the 2nd set coming through only had 1 single leaf!
The cheese was a harder choice as both looked good but the one I chose looked to have developed its roots a bit quicker so went with her.
So far so good as normally I've screwed something up at this point :woohoo:

Day 13 cheese
Day 12 kush

So I spoke to soon, knew I would screw something up as my new edition of a heater hasn't worked so good, I have burned up my cheese biatch! Growth has come to a standstill but I'm sure she will survive now I've moved the heater!

Kush looks nice still but not sure she likes the light intensity as she is dropping a little but nothing to be concerned to much about!

This grow is not going as smoothly as one would've hoped, I've got a new nute lineup and also added a heater and humidifier for this round so not entirely sure what's causing my issues

Cheese is very slow after burning her up which is cool as long as new growth looks nice, I thought it was but the leaves seem to start getting worse as they grow, cant be the heater now so maybe it's the humidifier blowing out tap water?

Kush is really short and squat, she is onto the 5th node now so growth is good but some of her leaves are twisted and have some brown marks on them so I've raised the light and also started adding calmag, hopefully she starts stretching over the next week or 2

Ignore the lime green look as they are darker in real life, well the cheese slightly to light but I need to adjust my camera settings on my phone.
 
Ok turns out the problem with the cheese was a phosphorus deficiency, swapped over nutes on both girls to shogun as wasn't really feeling the mega crop and I also added a little PK 13/14, both girls look much happier now!
