Finished cleaning the main zone and have some of the lights hung back up. Also started filling air pots with coco… My light recipe is as follows:
Mains - 600 watt Bridgelux Vero SE COB’s. 90CRI, 3000k
RapidLED Far Red/Photo Red (Emerson Effect)
420nm Actinic Violet
UVA/UVB
I may not run the UV. I have not since my Gelato grow in 2019. I need some good UV blocking glasses I can trust. I am not getting younger and my vision gets a little worse each year. Gonna need glasses before too long

Hasn’t started to snow up here in the hills of the Blue Ridge yet, where I am at. Northern Beginning in my state. Grandkids are gone, vaped some tossed salad and just put my second drink in my hand, sorry third. Round two tomorrow. I will see the remaining 7 grandkids tomorrow, unless it snows asshole deep tonight. Wanna wish you and yours, a very MERRY CHRISTMAS, my friend.

That’s awesome dude! I love it! No “pity-party” for me but my wife and I can’t have kids. We have tried for years, went to Dr… just not in the stars for us…
No worries, I act like a child so, my wife has her hands full
Enjoy these times, my friend. It really is the simple things in life that matters… Those Grandbabbies and Christmas innocents

I turn the big 50 January 6th. Time is fleeting…
I swear 25 seemed like just a few years ago…When I was a kid, 21 seemed like forever. Where does it all go ??

You are running some serious lighting it seems? Ive been playing around with building a light, but it seems I can buy a chinese knock off with all the same guts as HLG or SF, for a 1/4 -1/3 of the price. But to build one seems to be more expensive than the chinese ones. Or maybe im just not looking at it right. Lol who knows. Maybe one day we could discuss into further detail.
For now, you look like you have a half a clue as to what your doing 
… i figure theres tons I can learn from you. Ill tag along if thats alright with you?

Yeah, lighting is paramount when it comes to fat, dense buds. I can help you on a light build.
I have grown using everything from T5’s, HPS, CMH, to LED. Be careful sourcing parts. Not bashing Chinese parts per se’. Europe/Canada/AU/US all have ISO standards and internal standards/quality deliverables Chinese companies avoid. An American light built in China may be a better quality overall thus, higher cost.
My Vero SE’s are made in China but to Bridgelux standards, etc.
If I can help you out with suggestions, just let me know👍🏻 Tag me on your journal if you have one…

Have you grown anything from Fastbuds? I see their stuff all over instagram and it looks great.

Nope, the only seed bank I have used is ILGM. I have gotten seeds from a few breeders off of Oregon Elite Seeds but that was a hassle
Sucks being in a non-friendly zone

Merry Christmas, brother. I have a few seed banks, that I know are legit. I will email them to you later, if I get stoned and for get, remind me. I know that @automatik, is starting a business as well. I feel confident that he is legit, I have not gotten anything from him yet but, in my book, I would definitely consider him legit. I live in an illegal state as well.
