if things are working out I wouldn't change a thing most of those huge yielders lack on quality I once grew female seeds white widow-x- big bud it looked amazing but one hit & you were through ( lol) no one wanted it so that was a lesson learned the hard way I've grown headband about 4-5 years back this cut is more og than what I had & I cloned so if This comes out like I think it's gonna I've got my next round & im gonna get another strain before the spring rush for clones rcp is convenient for me as I don't like the traffic going over the hill to the bay we always hit the elk grove Golden Corral on the way back
Yeah I am going to try a different strain next time to replace the KW. I know there are other indicas that yield well that are better, but I dont know what exactly to get as I am no the big indica guy anymore.

I will likely be there again before the spring rush even if just because I have an addiction to trying new strains.
I have been to that Golden Corral many times

Haven't stopped in since a few weeks ago. Man I've missed a lot!

I'm sorry to hear of the mold, but least you got on top of that early!

Don't worry about the flowering, I've grown under led for years. It just grows a bit more neater than hps does. It's a great looking plant and is clearly loving the led. It's been leaf praying relentlessly for ages now :leaf: Providing you don't cut it down early, it will start growing buds out the sides of the buds, later in flowering. By then you will look back and laugh at the concerns you had, coz if this plant stays this happy and healthy you're onto a real winner!

Imo for every 100 tops grown under hps, you need 150 tops grown under led. By that I mean in the same space, 150 led buds will take up the same amount of space as 100 hps buds. So with led growing, you just create more tops to begin with. You end up with more smaller tops, but more dense buds with led. But take advantage of them being smaller by creating so many tops! That's the secret to matching hps yields with led. Don't worry though, you have created those extra tops on your plant! I just meant in general growing under leds. Your plant has loads of tops, so will be a major success!



I want to grow blue dream in fox farm OF soil. I will start with clones in red solo cups, veg for 4-5 weeks in a 3 gallon smart breathable pot. In week 3-4 I will top, lolly pop and super crop. Prior to transplanting into their final container, a 10 gallon pot, I will flush before moving them into the flowering room. Here is my question. Do you guys think I can yield at least half pound per plant if I have each plant under its own P450 led lights, which replaces a 600PHS bulb? I will be starting a 15 plant perpetual grow cycle.

Never grown before. I have a buddy who has, and is currently growing blue dream under HPS. his last 24 plants yeilded 10lbs dry. I want to go with LED because of the utilities, also, I feel that I can control the humidity and temp better, providing super ideal conditions.

I am working on my three month task list, I will upload it and share with you guys to get your insight. Btw, what do you think about adding blackstrap molasses during weeks 5-8 of flower?

That light pulls 255 watts so you will need to do a very good job with topping and training to get 8 zips.

I'm not big on indices all my best grows have been sativa dominant hybrids the stardawg is indica dominant but I haven't grown it out yet but vegged her & took babies she did however have good growth characteristics & cloned well

well another week has came & gone once again I've posted enough for 3 threads but I guess that's just me since I've retired a cup of coffee & a grow update is my morning ritual & an end of the day note my ppm. is down to 840 & all is well today is day#30 of 12/12 light cycle & as the breeder stated 4 weeks of stretch is complete she seems to have slowed now to get my buds to fatten upimage.jpeg

I'm liking the due diligence. It tends to result in better buds, lol
