Whats that taller plant you've got there ?
that's a blue dream, she's been my tester plant for the grow, started early to test root growth in instatransplant pot to determine transplant date, tested potting soil, and showed me early into greenhouse ok with cool night time temps, 30f to 36f greenhouse floor temp first 2 weeks she was out
 
anyone ever tried doing the lights half led, half hps? just as an experiment im going to have the first 9hours under 600w hps then the second 9 under 540w led. (1mx1m tent) my plants kept very short and stumpy last time so this is an attempt to stretch them out a bit more. got a 130w cfl comming tuesday so theyll get that for the first 10 days or so aswell. love my leds but theyre not great for youngesters .brought 4 plants on under them so far and theyve all been reeeeeaaaaly slow starters.

kinda neat experiment, but why not just add a metal halide to the hps. Even a few hundred watts would prob help a bunch.
 
I salute you @krug, man after my own heart. Hic!........Jock, I used to start off the little ones under a blue spectrum cfl then moved them to LED. It worked for me.
Does it offend you when I call you Jock, Jock.
