Indoor Fast buds LSD-25 and COTC Narcotic Kush, LED indoor. Days 55 and 15

[Marty5678]

Hi everybody, currently got a grow underway, cream of the crops narcotic Kush at day 55 and Fast buds LSD-25 at day 15, all in 60 X 60 X 180nsecret Jardin tent.

Narcotic Kush (100% indica)was stunted a fair bit during pre flower (had to leave unattended for a 6 days) underwatered, didn't recover well, nice smell (incredible strong this last week), decent size buds, but not much height, anyhow this is in a 15L airpot, sharing 300w viper LED (175w draw) and currently onto last 5 days feed before starting flush for 10-14 days.

LSD -25 (indica Dom) is in 10L airpot, under same LED light, light nutrient feed, AN grow, 1ml/1l same with voodoo juice. Woke up this morning and has shown sex

Will be using AN grow + bloom, voodoo juice, rhino skin, big bud, carboload, overdrive and bud factor X and plant magic cal/mag, growing medium in soil, plagron light mix.

Temperature sits around 21-23 Celsius, drops a bit low at night, lowest was 15.2, but really seems to be bringing some Autumn colours to NK which look pretty nice but wondering if this is too low for LSD-25 with its young age?

Got a 4" intake and 4" out take fan with carbon filter attached. Intake in switched off at night at moment to help with cool temps.

I have a UV-B light which I'm doing a bit experimenting with, read a few studies/articles lately about the effects of uvb and trichrome development, wanted to see if made a difference, will only be switching this on when I start to flush plant though.
While that isn't being used, have some 70w hps bulbs which will be using as extra light/heat throughout grows mainly once bloom has started.

Anyhow, hope can all join me on this, looking to update every couple of days with pictures and what not. Any advice tips, will all be greatly welcomed Here's some pictures of what everything looks like.

Cheers, Marty

Quick update, not much happening, think the Narcotic Kush is pretty much done,fan leaves starting to fall etc, trichromes a mixture of mostly cloudy with a few Amber in the mix. Started flush today so will more than likely come down next weekend.

Lsd-25 is day 18, starting to really grow now.
Still on half strength base nutes, with addition of b-52, voodoo juice, carboload. No yellowing of tips.
Added heater outside during night and low temps of 17, highs of 24.

Just a quick question, when growing with LED, does anybody seem to think plants never seem to grow much until they hit preflower? When growing under metal halide, I seemed to think that very early growth was always quite fast, as opposed to LED. Maybe it's just something I'm doing wrong? Or poor blue spectrum in light?

Cheers Marty.

Also how do I get pictures the right way

 

[cc2arms]

open your pictures via windows picture viewer, there will be lil icon toward bottom right allowing to rotate left/right, once you got pic how you want it click pulldown menu at top called file , then make copy then choose where to save new copy, or that's how I do via windows. I'm cc2arms by the way nice to meet ya gals looking good, I got lots of led ?s too i just started using em as well ;-) curious what distance you got your from top, mines at 18inches

Hi there, nice to meet you I'm using iPhone, so don't know how that will work, I'll get the tappatalk app, I've read it's meant to be done on there.

I've got my light about 8 inches away from top at the minute! No sign of bleaching, seems to be loving it, had a few small grows when I first changed to LED, took me a while to get everything dialed in with temps over the winter, but you save the hassle of extracting heat with hps!
I have being doing a lot of reading lately on some of the cree cob LEDs on the market that's starting to be used in some top range lights. Seems a lot cheaper to just get components and build your own. So thinking of mixing thing up a bit again (I get bored easily )
If I do go that I'll try an get summit posted in the led section here.
But anyhow chopped narcotic Kush, just put into jars. Lsd-25 at about day 36 and growing still, 22 inches in height yesterday. Also started a Girl Scout cookies, currently on day 11, in 15l air pot, gave light feed yesterday. I'll post some pictures.

Hi all, quick update, been a little behind in everything lately but trying to update at least once a week.

Had a bit of a nightmare this past week, mainly with the other half. But should be sorted now.

Planted a Dinafem White widow xxl, along with DItch passions AutoMazar, both in 10L pots. Both popped their heads out of top of root riot cube on Friday 18th March.
The Girl Scout cookies has been moved to a 1 litre pot and will just stay in till harvest, had a bit or a rough time, was expecting to die, but very slowly coming back to life.

Day 47 for LSD-25, which last week was subjected to 3 days of darkness. It was beyond my control, seems to be getting back into the stride of growing again.
Will be taking it to at least 70 days.

Lots of purple on leaves, stems, nice trichrome production so far, nice fruity smell. Very little side branching. Everything seems to be about the main cola.

This plant has had some of the biggest fan leaves I've seen on an auto before which made getting light through to bottom of plant a bit difficult.

Still waiting on MW drivers so I can hit her with 200w light from the cxb3590s, getting very impatient now!!

I'll get round to checking out some of the other grow journals. I love the purple bud porn from some of these plants.

Thanks for stopping by!

Marty

Hi all been a little while since I've updated this, here they are, 22 March
WW - 4 days
MAZAR 4 days
GSC 17 days
LSD-25 - 50ish days

The GSC had a bit of a troubled start, ended up putting in 1.5 litre pot, taproot was snapped early on but it's kinda sprung back to life!

 

[Marty5678]

Here they are as of yesterday 1st April.
Mazar - 14 days
WW XXL - 14 days
GSC - 27 days
LSD25 - 60 days, I think.

Mazar and WW are on half strength feed with voodoo juice and b-52. Ph perfect base nutes.

The GSC is just getting a mix of left over nutrients etc, it's turning into just a bit of an experiment this plant.

And lsd is currently on over drive till tomorrow then flushing for 7-10 days and chop starting to see Amber trichromes.

LSD25

Auto Mazar in the corner

Aww XXL

And finally GSC, I've done a bit of experimenting with this, lying it on its side to expose as much of the plant to light, with it being in such a small pot I'm obviously not expecting massive yield, just trying to maximise yield. In hindsight I should have really transplanted into a bigger pot once recovered. Not to worry

And here's some chillis to throw in the mix, various habanero, Trinidad scorpion, jalapeños, paper lantern, apaches, bhut jolokia and some various others.

Anyhow, peace and love to all!
Any comments much appreciated

Marty.
