FLiP LED Grow | 4x4 Tent | ICE

What's up guys and girls, time for another round. Here's the breakdown:

Light: FliP 720 watt LED ( about 400 actual watts )

Hydro Unit: Botanicare Turbo Garden (?) Basically I have it set up so that the water is continuously pumped from the bottom res to the top then waterfalls back to the bottom which aerates the water. No airstones needed.

Base Nutrients: Botanicare CNS17 Veg, Bloom, Ripe

Additive Nutrients: Botanicare Liquid Karma, Sweet, Hydroplex

Tent: 4x4 POS w/custom built lighthanger

Nice setup man, what strain are you running there?

What brand/bin LEDs do they use?

Thanks Yoda, running a strain called "ice". I'm not a huge fan of the name but the strain is quite good! A very robust hybrid that has always yielded dense and frosty. Smell is strong but not fruity or anything...smells like hash a bit.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I saw some results from them and went for it. I've had good success with them though! Here's my last grow using them.

Well, since I'm already about 2 weeks into bloom I'll start getting my images together and posting until I'm all caught up.

Here's the girls at 7-9 days of Veg. This light has selectable spectrums so at this point I'm only running it on the "veg" spectrum. Air temps are in the 70's and humidity is low, hovering at 30%. I'm using Botanicare CNS17 Grow and Liquid Karma. PH at 6.0-5.8

Here we are at about the first week of bloom. I vegged for a little over two weeks. I think at this point I "Flipped" the bloom switches on my LEDs and am now running both spectrums. The girls are really stretching their legs and starting to grow quickly. Air temps are getting pretty cold staying below 76. Humidity is perfect at around 48%. For nutrients I'm using CNS17 Bloom, Sweet (raw) and liquid karma. PH at 5.8.

Here's the girls as of Dec. 1. I took some string and pulled the longer stalks to the outside to create a sort of bowl shape. Usually works quite well for light displacement. Everything is already getting really frosty with a nice scent to boot. This same strain in soil wasn't as frosty at this point as the hydro is. Only problem i'm having is my temps are dropping too low. It's getting cold at night and temps in the tent are in the low 70's with the light on. Other than the typical maintenance everything is going smoothly.
