Hi all,View attachment 3672125 View attachment 3672126 View attachment 3672127 View attachment 3672128 View attachment 3672130View attachment 3672131
This is my first post in the forum and would like to share my experience, I'm sure I'll need some help at time to time.
Here's my LED set up 2 x 300 watt full spectrum LEDs in a 8x4 tent using for veg at the moment
and another 8x4 tent with 2x1200 watt full spectrum COBs for flowering. Also I built a box for Mum and daughters. Looking to run perpetual harvests when I get technique happening. Feel free to comment.
WELCOME TO R.I.U
:weed: nice plants :clap:

but why dont you start ur own journal on a new thread? :eyesmoke::eyesmoke::eyesmoke::eyesmoke:

I thought that verticalgrow after I posted and tried to change but couldn't work out how to shift the post to my own journal.
Is this possible or do I have to restart my post and delete off this thread?
Thank you for the Welcome!

Great post, is that the 1st time u have used those led grow lights?
Also wat results hav u got from those led grow lights?
How far South? I bet I'm further south than you! You don't have to be specific.
First grow with the LED's but have heard good things about the COB's mine are full spectrum with IR.
Running HPS's is just too expensive so have been looking for an alternative for a while.
Don't get me wrong I am not an experienced indoor grower have tinkered with small scale flouro's before
got pretty good results....but want better! Have plenty of outdoor growing experience but indoor is different.

sorry for the long time between updates guys but i forgot to watch this thread! so alot has happ
ened since the last update and these pics are 5 days old i will take new ones on day 49... so since i didnt do a midway flush(lesson learned when using high tds/ppm) i suffered from lockout from around days 33-37 before i figured out if was the soild PH being the problem and not the amount of nutes not being sufficient.. so that lead to decreased flowering production and the LSD is now the smallest but frostiest plant in my tent...she is ALOT more frosty nowLSD flsh.jpg LSD2.jpg LSD Trichs.jpg LSD Main close.jpg
all my others are doing fine for all the hell i put them through.. hers some pics of my Blue Treacle... should get about 2oz off her and i even broke her neck on day 30 i believe it was ... these pics are 5 days old also on day 42....she has almost doubled in size since these pics
