Well done Psynobi! Very pretty plant and covered in sugar :D

How do you know its ready?
Do autos have amber trichomes or you just go with the orange pistils and the general appereance of the bud before you harvest ? (cause i read somewhere that autos' trichomes dont change color)

question..

is this as it says, equivelent of 150 watts? or does that not translate out to the same watts we go by?

2 of these would blast my 2x2 area, and only use 60 watts.. if it is as powerful as I'm thinking..

Since it's made/designed for human vision ,it means that it's light, is as bright as if it was used a 150 Watts traditional light (halogen ) .
The same lumens output (photometric unit ,which has no meaning at all ,regarding light for plants ... ),as a 150 Watt halogen .

No it's not crap ....
I regard that just one of those, could blast your 2x2 room ...
With two .... :weed:

Still is way a lot of $$$ for 60 Watts ...
Way much money ....


If I had those 2 K , now ,in my pocket ,
I would 've been building a DIY led grow system ,
beyond any imagination ....
But ....my present income is about ..~200$ per month **....(really !!... )
So...All I can do,right now , is imagine,design,visualise and dream over ....

Not much more than that ,I'm afraid ....

i harvest with the microscope only... in this plant all of their trichomes were cloudy with some amber. the pistils were half white half orange... so by the look it wasn't ready yet. but the scope tells different.. yes some autos really don't change their trichomes colour. but eventually if you leave them more than they need the trichs will become amber..
 
Psynobi, I saw you wrote that your light schedule was 20/4. So did you used it throughout all 11 weeks? Wouldn't it be a waste of light? Because almost everyone I know uses 12/12 light schedule with autos... :confused:

this is wrong for me.... yes autos can grow with any time schedule. but their size/yield will be affected respectively. it's like the photoperiod plants. they can grow only with 12/12. but they will produce less.
20/4 i think it's the best for an auto. 18/6 too. autos have possibilities. you just need to give them the chance.

I'll have that in mind!
Thanks mate! ;-)

Hi.

I have a Apollo 12 spectrum is:630 , 460 the ratio is 13:2,(pre designed)
I'm getting 2 more, it's going to be in a 5 x 9 feet room.
It's going to be used for vegging and flowering, what spectrum do you recommend for the 2 new lights?

i would really appreciate any suggestions/advice and help, Thanks! :peace:

Psynobi fantastic work there, and of course as always organized ;-)
I saw also that you have a unknown seed, which has become like beast. kiss-ass
Of course, the rest of your garden is green,healthy all around and I hope to be saved this Green love potion :neutral:

Have a nice smoke with this "HorrOr"
Cheers!:bigjoint:

the unknown at start we thought it was critical mass (by the indica shape and the thought that we had some critical seeds in the bag this one was taken from.) but after third week she started to make sativa leaves like you saw. i think she is going to finish in 8 or 9 weeks top so i'm guessing maybe a hybrid or a critical with a messed up DNA? :bigjoint:
i really don't care what strain it is. as long as it is female and healthy it's fine for my garden. :mrgreen::mrgreen:. Greenlove is going to finish. i'm sure about that. i just don't know how and when.. she is flowering but not well..

if i manage to yield over 30 grams from the auto it's fine for me. i used on average 72 watt during the whole grow for her so i think its fine.

I'll throw this out so someone can tell me I'm wrong. >.<

I like the idea of,
Neutral White : Warm White : 630nm : 660nm
3 : 9 : 1 : 2
