New Grower Mephisto Strawberry Nuggets, 4 Assed Monkey & Fantasmo Express x Sour Stomper

I know you are set on LED but you can pick up a CMH light with a Philips bulb for about £250......and they only use 315w......up to you tho dude obviously:vibe::smiley1:
But wouldn't that be putting out about half what a 600w HPS would be?

I can't stress how little I know about this.

obviously do some research before you decide to buy lol.....I grow with a single CMH bulb and have had some great results, it all depends how much you are looking to produce....you mentioned your electricity, this is 315w so pretty cheap to run.....and you said you had £500 budget and these are £250.......just trying to suggest something that ticks a few boxes for you dude, and I use one so I can vouch for the CMH lol:crying:

Woah woah wait! Wow you're only running one in there!?

Well I'm sold then! I think I just assumed you had a bunch of cobs in there.

Amazing. Great tip!

Day 16 for the Fantansmo Express x Sour Stomper.

She's still weird, but she's improving. New growth is coming along pretty swiftly now. I think she was a bit stunted by the cold temps. It's now settled at 26c in there with the tube heater at full blast. I've put the lights on 24/7 to avoid any sharp drops over the next few days.

Zkittles seeds arrived too, I'll pop one or maybe two later today.

Everything else is coming along nicely, packing on weight and frost daily. 4AM is smelling strong and tropical and a deep earthy kush-like funk from the SNs.
 
Overdue update on the gals.

Day 18 for the FxS

looking much better now. Her early weird growth has actually created a side shoot that will hopefully come in useful when she get's bent about. She's looking pretty strong and healthy to me.

DAY 55 for the 4AM and she's chugging along nicely. Fattening up a bit and putting up some frost. Bit dense and could probably do with some more defol, I'm wary of it. What do you guys and gals reckon? She has pretty decent airflow now.

Here's our thick thiiiicccck SN, which def needs a defol but is otherwise looking pretty tasty and very purple. I guess she is a Purple Nuggets rather than a Strawberry Nuggets, apparently it's a 10% chance of this so I suppose I kinda feel lucky even if it's not what I was after.

And here's the regular good ol' fashioned SN, she has a little tinge of pink which you can't see in the pics but I'd say topping was the perfect thing for her, she's branched out more and buds are forming at pretty much the same rate as the untopped purple one above.

Overall I'm pretty happy with how they're coming along. The green SN smells a little sweeter than the purple one, I reckon she'll be a bit tastier.

I think I like growing slightly bigger, leggier plants so whilst I'm certainly impressed with Mephisto I'm looking forward to seeing how the two Zkittles seeds I just popped from Fast Buds come along too. Perhaps the FxS will be a bit bigger. Looking forward to them!

Im aware there's a touch of nute burn on all of these, at this point I'd rather push them a touch too hard and ease off as needed than underfeed.

Oh and and the 4AM smells insane. I'll be growing her again right away, I don't think her yield will keep me going for that long and I suspect I'll want to keep her on rotation.

Happy growing and happy holidays!

Your ladies are looking lovely. I like the coloring on the SNs. I’m really looking forward to growing that strain now.
