6- 240 watt blackstar eh? actual wattage is a lot less and personal experience tells me blackstar break a lot. I ran 5 blackstar 500 , still have one of them although it's dropped a couple rows of diodes.

Hell yeah thats how you start it off. You got me dancing in my chair off that song. Subbed for real. Cant wait to see where you take us!

Ditto on DB hope you doing 12/12 or get some crazy training of branches in. You can get those blackstars close.

I had no idea you were a LED user. A LEDer and a nerd, I wasn't sure how many of us there were. Nice setup!

Yeah not many LED nerds. I'm getting ready to LST these babies later today... I shoulda done it sooner but that's how it goes :) Only 3.5 weeks til flower so they won't get too big and the LST will keep the height down. They're not sexed yet so I'm thinking once they are it should be fine for the # of lights they're under. I may add extra lighting if I feel it's needed... I got a 600w on backup, but i'd prefer not to use it as it'll bring heat issues (one of the main reasons I like the LEDs so much).

Actual power draw on these 240s is around 135w. Haven't had any issues with them so far -- this is their 3rd full grow (with a couple of other aborted grows as well). They're a bit over a year old.

I like the pot shop parody but the original's better :) also i got the original on mp3 so easy to put in vid :)

plants doing awesome the LSTers have turned their leaves up to the lights... my younger ones are really taking off now i think the chernojills put off a full leafset just since that vid?! (they got watered yesterday morning)

One of the things I like about LST is that their main stalk size will double or triple over the next few days due to the training. it's like super cropping for the main stalk.

I'll post more vids here in the future but in the meantime if you wanna keep up on more regular updates, see my official grow thread

I can't believe this is only just over 2 1/2 weeks after that first video... CO2 + super soil + air pots + LST+LEDs = *THE SHIT*

That's cuz the original one's better :) I dunno why they changed it. Yeah flower crew doing great only issue is only 6" of space before I have to figure something out. Hoping those veggers start perking up soon. A couple already area so hoping the rest follow... they looked worse a day or two ago. I'm really happy with how it's going so far... just can't wait to see those buds... day 7 so it's going to be in the next week!
