Indoor Feroled 357 LED v HID 250w dual spectrum

[littlebopeep]

So here we are at day 60 since I changed the led to the more powerful Fero3604G
Ive noticed a significant improvement we are now running at about 50 Watts per foot for both seperate trial areas.
I noticed a mg deficency around day 40 (only under the led) and I started adding epsom salts at one tea spoon a gal evey 3rd watering for all the plants.
Ive kept the feed at 50% as the water uptake is now higher so the ec will be rising over the 2 days also I have taken the ph down to 5.6 as from testing the runoff that is 6.0 I think this gives them a better range to take up most of what they need
Ive been surprised a couple of times by the intensity of the led and have burnt the tips of the plants slightly at around 15" with the hairs sometimes browning off a little
Ive also been a bit peeved with the diference in heights between the mi5'S and thanking the ganga gods that I didnt do the trial in nft
lets put it this way lots of staging involved
anyway enough of the chat time for some pics

I thought it might be nice to post a quick pic update not all of the plants are from this trial

 

[littlebopeep]

some of the smaller single cola plants under both the hid and led are starting to ripen and went into flush today the bigger phenos still have a way
I will flush for a min of seven day and longer if I think they need it
playing it by ear as this is my first indoor auto grow
wish me luck
