I use those for clones, so I guess we do the same thing for different reasons

But I have seen people literally take everything under the cola off. Makes me want to run and give my plants a hug when I see that...

I could see it with radicle LST or maybe supercroping but otherwise no.

I think he might have seen a mature Scrog.

Supercropping has nothing to do with defoliating.

And I've seen plenty of mature ScrOGs Not sure what that has to do with picking a plant butt-naked either. There's a difference between a scrog that gets rid of everything under the screen because it won't get light anyways and a sog grower that shows me a nug on a stick and goes "I lollipopped it!"

I do not know how litteral his definition of lollypop is, taking everything under the top nug is
detrimental to the plant but there is a lot of room for misunderstanding here.

Hi,

I am going to try and grow some indoor.
I have read allot of forums and chats and much more.
I have even bought some stuff already (tent ect.)
I have some problem with chosing light.
I would like to use LED light (cheap) but ...
when I google LED +indoor +grow ... there are a million and more options ...
Have read some of them but ... it is all the same (one stuck to mind www.realgrowled.com) but they are sold out.
Does anybody have experience with this company ... as they are sold out someone should ...
Alternative does anybody have an advice on which LED to use?

cheers,
PP

cree 3070 3000k leds, any bin are awesome, but DIY

I have had lots of success just using CFLs from the hardware store. For early stages I have used 5000k - 6500k. it seems to do the trick. I use a lot of lights so there is good coverage.

Those "k" numbers can be hard to find on some brands so I start by looking for "daylight" on the packages.

Ooops.... hahaha... Don't know why I read CFL when you typed LED. It's still early here in Hawaii. I hope to hear more about your quest. I would be interested in trying it since Hawaii is the land of Most expensive electric rates ($.45/Kwh).

New to this forum, Not to growing. Still have tons to learn and a little to give. Currently in the East Bay Central Cali. Always up for local swaps and hang outs. Currently growing kens GDP, Sweet Tooth, Romulan, Pineapple Thai ( the never ending flower sativa from hell), and a big assortment of mutant Duck foot type stuff. :0)

Hey am new to site and new to indoor growing. Have just started my first grow journal. Bag seed and super skunk auto and dp think different will upload pics lata when lights come on. One love all

I agree

New to growing but not to medicating

Cant believe I waited this long to learn to grow!

I just signed up and wanted to say hi to everyone. I've read a lot about how to do a small grow, but have yet to actually do it. A little at a time I've been collecting the brightest cfl's I can find in 2700k and 6500k, bulb splitters, reflectors, etc. I hope to be ready to get started in a few months or so. It's nice to be here and I'm looking forward to meeting, gaining (and then sharing) knowledge from everyone here on RollItUp.

I LIKE JAM

Newbie here. I have a 24"x48" grow tent. With a 80*3w LED grow light. My first try at mj, but I have grown many other plants in my day. I use to grow a couple of thousand garden mums every year. So I have some experience in dealing with light sensitive flowering plants. I have been lurking on here for better than a year. I have learned alot, and am looking forward to contributing to the community where I ca..

Hey all,
I've been following the forum for only a few weeks trying to get as much knowledge as I can before I started my very first grow.
Thankfully I have had the help of my best friend who is an experienced grower. He has been reluctant to help but I ferret out info from him. H just wants me to learn on my own. I'm grateful for this though because he does willingly point me into the right direction. This is what I hope to get from these forums is pointed in the right direction. I do not expect an experienced grower to explain for the eleventeenth time why this light is better than that. All I ask is a "hey man, here is a link to learn about what you are wondering."

I just started my first grow and certainly have some questions. I'll be posting them in other threads but until then I hope you have a great day.

Hello! I'm new here. I"m glad I found this site!
