1st LED GROW!

so right now my light is on 24/0. i plan to switch it to 18/6 (which is what i always prefer for veg. stage) when i get the other 4 plants in there which should be in a day or two.. then i will comepare the first 2 weeks of growth from each "batch" of plants.. the first 8 are veg'd on 24/0 for the first 2 weeks, then the new 4 will be veg'd on 18/6 for the first two weeks then all continued on 18/6.. just a little experiment i wanted to try. i will then have an extra 5 plants that i can do what i want with...

these 12 plants i will be vegging under the LED for quite a bit until they can't fit any more or need to be transplanted.. then by this time i should have a grow tent or have built one about 4'x4'x6' mayb 5'x5'x7.5' tops in the corner beside this desk.. in that i will have my 400watt MH which i have a 7200k bulb for veg. and a 3200k bulb for flower.. then i also have a 1000watt HPS. SO i dont know if i will be vegging anymore when they go under the 400watt but i will be:

-flowering first 2 weeks with 7200k to help with stretch
-flowering second 2 weeks with 3200k to help with preflowers and slowly enduce red spectrum
-last 4 weeks or more of flower with 1000watt HPS (2000k)

thats what i would like to do anyways.. if something comes up or whatever i can still flower under the LED if i want but clearly id like to get the HIDs up.

oh and that bud shot is "Single A grade SHISHKABERRY" which everyone around here just calls "Locals" becuz it can change strains or whatever but it always smokes/looks the same for the most part becuz of the way it is grown. "Locals" in my area go for $350 a quarter pound, $1200 a pound. Good weed like "Purple Kush" and all that "Triple A grade" weed can somtimes get up to $4000 but usually stays around $3200 a pound

never mind...i found you....just need to read up first but sub'd!!! lol

Ehm...I was just playing with conversions (I'm used to Grams and Euros) and found that you pay high quality (triple A, as you called it) marijuana just the same as we pay here in Italy, but what about the 1200$ a pound one?

We have some here we pay about 2,50 euro a gram (witch is about the same as 1200$ for a pound) but it really sucks it's outdoor with more seeds than resin...i use it only to cook!

How's yours instead?

u get seeds in it! that sucks man! i remember those days when i was younger getting weed like that with seeds in it from our friends parents or whoever who just grew some personal and screwed it up once in a while but now there is all kinds of strains/potencys.

the $1200 a pound weed is good for selling.. not worth it to grow really becuz you have to grow alot of it! its grown really quick, not sure on the exact method, but im sure all the growing corners are cutt to ensure steady production. I used to hate the stuff but to be honest i live in canada and in some of the little towns outside of the bigger ones (where i live) some of them dont even see good weed that often so someone could take a pound of "locals" from town thats $1200 and sell it out in the smaller towns close by for $2200 and its considered really good weed or atleast "double A grade" becuz they would normally see "barn weed" which is considered shit cuz its just local farmers growing they're own during the summer and selling it around town. i used to hate it cuz i was always around kush, all day everyday all kinds of kush and it was "AAAA" weed not to brag or anything but i was very pleased n e ways (guy i knew would fly to BC and grab all the time). But now that i grow my own and stopped hanging around certain crowds i smoke it sometimes becuz i get it free.. so i really can't complain.. its nicer now.. before it used to give me headaches.. but i will take a shot of a big bud of it sometime soon for you.. you will probably think its really good weed by the looks of it haha.

damn all those under 45 watts sounds like alot but hopefukky that led panel does good

ya thats what im wondering.. i figured i would test a 2'x2' area at the most first, then mayb jump down next time.. either way usually im suppose to be using party cups under the LED for 2 weeks becuz i can fit more.. i think around 32 actually.. then transplant to the 400 but im just taking it ez right now with where i go from here.. who knows mayb i will flower them under the LED and try for the 400 on the next batch.. but for now i really want to test this LED panel out cuz i might buy a bunch of the new ones for a stealthy cabinet grow.. i love how the panel fits perfectly under my desk just hope the space will work for the lighting.. the 8 plants i have under it now have bin doing really well.. we will c when it jumps to 12. If i do decide to flower under the LED i obviously wont be flowering all 12, there just wont be enough room.. although i could top all of them and take those as new clones then flower shortly after... we will c.

anyone else think they can answer my questions?
