Today is 10/02/2022

these shots are from 09/25/2022 to start which

“seeds are so small”

they turn into plants that need more room which has to have more light

the story of my life

I did have some strips left over and used them to make another light

ended up being about 550 watts from the wall so I would guess about

500 watts of light

these shots are from this weekend moved out of the drink cups

to one gallon round pots in soil-less pro mix hp

the females plants from outside have been moved into Hempy Buckets

after knocking off 95 % of the soil-less the plants are not so happy :frowning:

Purple Diesel x Holy Goddess

Blue Berry F7 x Chocolate OG

whacked back to the third node

still with me

clones just out of the water

both lights are using 953 watts from the wall

after the trim

ones that just moved from red cups

Grape Zotz and Bruised Ego females

becoming nice bushes

all the best and be safe

it could have been far worse :slight_smile: my three time Felon ass could be sitting

in jail :frowning:

that would have sucked ass huge

super hard to grow the weed in the Joint

so in the end you just pick up the pieces and move on

I am back to where I am way over the the 6 or 12 plants I can have

they missed plants that are females so that saves me a week or six

the thing that is killing me is 8 foot by 16 foot is so small after being

back working outside the last two seasons

just need to figure how and where I will be flowering as at some point

in time I will need to flower a crop

Nice seeing you my friend :slight_smile:

I have and they are starting to look better but I may need to build a

8 x 16 addition to flower

thank you for your kind words and they are liking the added lights

for sure

I am still learning how to best work with these LEDs, it would be so

easy to flip a switch and have 5500 watts of HIDs running

but after using G_d’s free lights

the power bill would give me a heart attack

Thank You My Friend things are getting better

having them jack all my work still has a sting to it

but what does not kill us make us stronger

all the best and enjoy the day

10/06/2022 is today

here are some photos

becoming nice little bushes, need to feed them getting a bit of yellowing

on some of the younger ones

everything will get some Jack’s Classic 20-20-20 this weekend

the ones that got their soil-less knocked off and stuffed into

Hempy buckets

they are not so happy at this time, they do have little leaves coming

on they should make it time will tell

if not I have way too many plants so no lose

clones starting to recover these are from the 5 different females

the Police missed outside, if the Hempys do not make it I still have

the genetics

5 MAC crosses

Purple Diesel X Holy Goddess

Blue Berry F7 x Chocolate OG

a quick update

all the best and grow well

Today is 10/16/2022

I have come to the realization that

I have too many plants and too small of a room

I miss outside soo much :frowning:

I may need to lose my Hempy buckets for now as they are to flower

I may want to flower a crop sooner

so I may do some 3 gallon grow bags with soil-less

be safe and stay tuned photos and blah blah blah to come

Set some to the side and maintain their trimming, keep them in veg. Flower out the room you want and put the other in the next round.

@Slym3r I am going to give them a couple more weeks and see what they

look like at that time

I was hoping to flip the light on part of the room in a couple week or so

I may have to wait a bit longer but I do want well vegged plants with good roots

for big buds :slight_smile:

they are coming back I will feed them soon

up canned some from 1 gallon to 3 gallon pots

took these from 1 gallon to 2 gallon short on space at this time :frowning:

these got a trim

lights are full

all the best and be safe

Wow it has been about forever :frowning:

been slacking about updates as veg is veg

and I still have a day job so it has been busy rolling out

an updated network

I have some photos also a bunch of blah blah blah to go with them

but a quick question for you LED gurus

how far can I have my driver from the strip array?

I will put up my light build doing 24 - 2 foot Bridgelux strips

and a couple of Meanwell drives to cover a 4 foot by 4 foot to flower

all the best

how far are you talking…it’ll be about resistance x distance of the wire gauge.
First # is AWG Number, Last is resistance per Meter

Oh. Never keep a gram of that in your glovebox btw. Just opening the car door after 30 seconds smells like walking into a sketchy cloudy Amsterdam coffeeshop.
