My current light set-up and how I use them.


My primary light is a DIY from 14 – Citizen 1212 3500K cri 90 COBS that I run at about 43 watts each. I built it in two pieces eight with active cooling and six with passive cooling. I have two Royal Blue COBs on individual drivers. They run at about 50 watts each. I have eight 720nm SemiLeds that run about 40 watts total. I have 2 AgroMax UVA Plus 10,000k fluorescent 48” bulbs about 45 watts each and one AgroMax Pure UV (75% UVB 25% UVA) fluorescent 48” bulbs about 45 watts. My space is 4’ x 6’ x 8’.

I run 18/6 the entire grow for Autos and 18/6 – 12/12 for photoperiods. The Citizen COBs are a little week on the blue spectrum so I run the Royal Blues from seed drop to the 2nd or 3rd week of flower. The 720 nm LEDs are used as flower initiators. I run them for 15 minutes after lights out when it is time to flip to flower for photoperiod plants two weeks and to increase the stretch on autos that might be shorter then you want. I just run them for a week when the autos start their stretch. Then when the plants are in full flower I turn off the Royal Blue COBs and turn on the UVA bulbs to increase terpene production. 3 weeks prior to harvest the Pure UV lamp gets turned on for a couple of hours each mid-day until harvest. This is to increase THC/CBD production.

My average daily watt of light is about 650. I can drive the Citizen 1212s higher but it produces too much heat for the little gain.

My best yield with this light system has been 1.68/grams per watt x 650 = 38.5 ounces from 6 plants.

Ok I'm in. Need this so I can try and move up in rank. Think I need 3 more to rank up and this would be one!

Thanks!

Told ya we have super great awesome staffs!

Congrats bro!

I'm gonna go smoke a ton today and ask myself if I wanna join any battles next round? When I started this round, I promised myself I'd have a simple grow just like my first grow, next round. A little break from joining 6.

Did my 6 and achieved my goal for promotion. Don't really know what I'll be doing it for next round? Not a competitive dude so Champions of Champions doesn't really appeal much. Of course, I'm not saying I'll win for sure but rather a lack of motivation after a busy season.

I'll consult with the Ganja goddess soon! Lol

@Mañ'O'Green Here is my germ pic for the 2019 Light Champion Round. I needed to start early (approved by Ripper) due to my timeframe.

Oh Yeah, I'll be in this one. Orange Bud is still going. Been on rainwater for a week....

@Ripper Can I start mine early, I need to get some beans in right away, plus my SWC takes longer to grow.

@bushmasterar15 Logged Thank you. Please tell us about your light set-up and how you use them. Thanks.

Ok I will drop you from the contest since you don't think you can finish a plant in 84 days?

Well I started my Orange Bud and my other three in a pot on the day of the start of the two week germ period, yet my plants are only just finished now. My SWC just takes a couple of weeks longer. Just cut this down today, and even then it was only because there was a bit of rot on one bud but it was just a gammy leaf, otherwise it'd let it go for a bit longer...



Here she is in the light just before the big chop...
