your training @Equatorial is impeccable, great work.

Thank you, Sir!

Some more pics for you....

After spraying them a bit

Closer shot

Some yellowing patches here and there courtesy of barbaric supercropping. They'll live...lol

Almost forgot to post Diesel and Lemon post harvest pics. The below was taken a day after being jarred. It was about a week ago

Not bad for 2 plants right? Smoking some of Diesel now. Potency is very strong even with just a week of curing. Buds are a little airier than I'd prefer but thats what you get with an early harvest. The effects is a great addition to my current stash.

Would need to cure more to compare taste and what not but definitely liking what I did so far. Thats what i love about being a baby grower. Pretty much trying anything is an adventure!

I already have some ideas and opinions on how the QBs and Greenleaf line is working for me. Just need to complete the other girls to give me more observational data/ comparison + more reading. All i know for sure so far is I'm gonna add another 800 board on top to create:
1. 2400 diodes on a 94cm x 60cm board (about 3ft x 2ft). Its basically 3pcs of 94cm x 20cm boards with heatsinks.

2. If I can procure some 90CRI LM301B diodes, I'll go with them for the new board. Otherwise, it will be the 80CRI ones with a touch of some 660nm to balance out the spectrum. If anyone has more knowledge on the effects of different CRIs, you are most welcome to discuss them here.

3. The idea is to get the boards to about only 1ft from canopy or even closer but using less wattage, without affecting spread.

4. I can play with spectrums with this setup. One 4000k board in middle and a 3000K board on each side. There is really quite a wide range of blue:red ratio to play with, which I've noticed is rather significant in my current grow. Also, the ability for each board to dim in 10+W increments makes for a super wide range of combos.

5. The entire size of the light itself is already 3×2. I figure at 1ft, it would easily cover my 5×3 or so space. These lights spread WIDE but plants LOVE them.

Just realized i got too much to write and share. Just gonna stop here cos Im too baked. Remember i said I was vaping some Diesel? That was 2 hours ago! Damn....i had no idea. Gonna read what i wrote after i hit the post button....lol

I'm speechless man. I wouldn't know what to do with all that bush. Barely making it along with one!

I know how it feels bro! It’s not knowing what to expect in my grow that really freaked me out more than anything. You’ll get the hang of it after 1-2 tries. Then, you’ll be hooked and trying to grow gourmet buds to the best of your abilities. My first ever plant sprouted on Valentines this year. It don’t take long to learn growing our plant!

I will be looking at what you do . You have mastered the craft of growing this fine plant and training since your first go at it. Love your training and i guess the meticulous record keeping will help you go a long way.
I know i have been missing in action for a while . But i am always around [emoji16] i am now starting to grow in coco now . As well as peat but so far i am loving the coco. Now i see why some people swear by it. The growth rate is off the chain at least twice as fast as peat. Keep up the good job bro . I got some catching up to do as well .

I'm using a mix of coco and peat! Best of both worlds :smoking:

Wondered where you've been! Fyi, I've never kept any records. No charts, logs, feed, hours or anything at all on paper or digital. Too lazy to even figure out how to use the timer yet. And I got two of them lol! I know keeping meticulous records will help for sure. Perhaps next time.

Will try coco to see the difference but I doubt I'd want too many big plants per each grow. But as always, lets get this grow completed first!

Thanks for dropping by!

I used about 60 40. This grow I bought the Aurora roots green lite which is already mixed, dont have a clue about the ratio. But I like it!
