New Grower First Auto Attempt - New Year Budget Bucket Grow

Sitting at day 14/15 - growth still coming in stacked. She was starting to tilt a little so gave her a stake for stem support.

I feel like she's a little darker so I might have my feed a little too heavy. I was using 1g MegaCrop per gallon but maybe I can scale that back to 0.8 or so. I'm top feeding about 100-125ml twice a day with 12 hours in between watering.

Looking very Healthy!!:thumbsup::pass:
 
I was able to get a real nice deal on a 2x2x4 tent for under $40 so I'll be moving the grow over into that once it arrives and I can get it set up.

I'm 99% sure I have to get another light if I wanted to put a second plant in that space. There's a couple 300W LED that seem like they could do the job for about $60, but I'm not sure if I'll go that route. I might just save up for a set of cobs since I'm seeing great yields out of those and they will pull a 50-75% of the wattage. The electricity savings would be decent, but I would basically double my budget by going that route and I have to decide if that's something I'll willing to take on.

I'll think about this over the next 2-4 weeks and make a decision.
 
I'm trying to make light choices too @Samwell and I'm really tight on money right now. Those cobs sure look like they can grow some excellent buddage! :hump:
 
What kind of lights are you looking into and what's the budget?
Timber and BigSmo are out of my price range and I thought about Roleadro 2X cob lights, but now I'm considering a Hydropics 800, (210w actually draw). It's has 4 cob lights. I heard that Roleadro over powers their lights and I'm thinking maybe at 210w actually draw, the Hydropics may be a better choice. :shrug:

wow at $85 that's a pretty good deal, wonder what kind of chips they use.
