New Grower Using low level led lights

[Banjacked]

In absolutely ideal temperature, humidity, grow medium, etc, conditions they CAN be done in that timeframe, the reality is that it's quite normal for things to be a couple of weeks "late", especially if the plant was shocked by transplanting, topping, and so on.

So you're still in the "normal" window as far as being ready goes, expect at least 13 weeks if what seems to be "normal" here is seen, could even be longer if she's been shocked.

Just watch the trichomes on the plants. That is the only real way to see if the plants are finished the way you want them. Early harvest, trichomes are clear to mostly cloudy, mid harvest, trichomes are cloudy with about ten to twenty percent amber, and late harvest, trichomes are almost fifty percent amber.

Just read up son! This ain't rocket science...

Passing one over to you for the nice homemade grow room!

I like to harvest slightly early. Cloudy with maybe a few amber. I enjoy the high more it helps better with the pain harvesting like that for me anyways ..usually if i wait till fully ripe i get more of a stoned couchlock feeling n i like to be functional and stoned just a personal preference

I am the same way, but I want some of the meds to be for night time, relax down time, and sleep. Those I let go longer. I love making hash from plants that go long as well. The hash always has an amazing mellow buzz to it, even when I use Sativas. The Sativa is buzzier in the head, but still mellows out nicely.

Also, for anyone suffering from anxiety, the more amber on your indicas will help relieve it. All marijuana users, due to the nature of the drug itself will suffer from anxiety at some level.

There is a thread about screw in LEDs somewhere in the DIY section that might be interesting for you. I use about 140 watts of screw in 3000k and 2700k bulbs to fill in the sides on either side of my HLG quantum board light

That is a very nice build. I wish I was handy, but I can hardly open a tin can. Even putting together the HLG 260w QB will be too much for me, going to get a mate to do it.

Those LEDs remind me of some I bought as supplementals for my tent which is being freighted to me now by the way.

Could you post some specs on them and price? I would like to compare.

I am considering trying my hand on a rubbermaid build where I can reverse fems and produce my own fem seeds, since getting the seeds where I am located is a big task. Always having been a 12\12 from clone after three days veg, and now 12\12 from seed will require lots and lots of fem seeds.
