Nice!! That things a monster haha!! Why don't you drop a double Y adapter like mine are on with some cfls down to the lower buds in the meantime? They are for sure way far from the light. Get them some energy in the meantime till you cut the top colas then keep the cfls and led all on the smaller buds to pack em tight? That is if you have extra 2700k bulbs laying around lol. Looks great man! Can't wait to see harvest!

Nice! The Buds look good! How do you like using those lights? Have you used HPS before? I'd love to find a better alternative to the HPS. I know my power bill has skyrocketed having all the fans, ac unit, 1000wHPS and 600wHPS running..UGH.

Your leaves kind of look like something I was having an issue with..actually they haven't cleared up all the way, still suffering a little bit of a deficiency. Is it a phosphorus deficiency? I just put 5 plants in to bud in my small tent under the 600w...I had treated them for a phosphorus deficiency by adding bloom nutes to their feed schedule I also did a foliar spray of the bloom nutes on them for a few days. It really seemed to help. They look about 90% better. Anyways, sorry for the million questions! lol ;)

Thanks for checking out the page. With the plants getting closer to the end of the plants cycle deficiencies will start to occur. Believe it was a calcium deficiency. it stopped on the other plant after i added my own batch of calcium. I use epsom salt as well. Cal mag is a must if using fox farms ocean forest. I used water all through veg. 40 days. But the 2 plants look entirely different and it could be more genetic than anything. Im not too worried about it right now as im nearing the end. Never used hps. Friend runs 2000watts of hps and ive seen him go through a cpl of harvest with awesome results. I just started indoor growing and i just wanted to use a light that would be effecient in my 2x2. after all the reasearch i did i decided to build my own with affordable cob lights. And ive beem running them for almost 2 month and i love it. Figured having a smaller setup would cost me less. But i have a 18"x 3foot veg cab and a 2x2 flower box. The flower box is where all the money is at the veg cab is pretty simple
