Club 315w lec

gr865 said:

I have a 1/4" ball valve on each line for isolating or pressure reduction for each dripper. I use them with my 2 gallon smart pot so I can remove the plants from the tent to work on them. With this run I am have not been using them as I couldn't move that sucker if I wanted too. Going to take two of us to get it out of there at harvest, I will allow it to dry for a day plus prior to harvest so she may be lighter.

Are you running a res with an anti siphon valve too?

Just got my lec 315 how is it guys ??

I just picked up a nice used 630 LEC to run with my 315. It came with the 4200k lamps whereas my 315 has the 3KR lamp. I’m in flower at the moment so I’m guessing it’s probably best to get 3k lamps rather..? Correct me if I’m wrong but the 4K are more for veg with more blue spectrum. These lamps aren’t cheap though, would I lose out substantially if I ran the 4K lamps now..?

You can use the 4200k for flower, shouldn't make too much of a difference. But technically yes a lot of people use that color for veg

I'm using both and haven't seen much difference between the 2 in flower.
I have 2 630 double bulb and 4 315's in a 8x8 room.

Great thanks guys, I reckon I’ll just use the 4200k lamps that I’ve got then and save some cash..

Yes it comes off the main feed line just above the rez.


This works extremely well but there is still about 6 feet of 3/4 inch tubing that has to empty into the smart pots after the pump shuts off. I will be able to eliminate the problem, if it is a problem, which it really isn't, by moving the rez down to the floor but I would need to add a anti siphon valve to the secondary rez which will be no problem to do.

Day 14 of 12/12 under 2 - 315's with 3000 K lamps in a horizontal grow.

Not sure how much more stretch I can handle, may have to start a mass LST for this bitch.
4/29 The day before start of 12/12


14 days later 5/13, I have had to tie her down twice since start of flower, she is taken over the space.


5/13 different shots from last night.






Buds starting to form, stretch is continuing and she sure could use a trim, but will wait another week for that.

She not flowering as rapid as Pheno #1 or #3, but she is supporting much more growth.

First time running that one? That's one I've had my eyes on before.

Here is SPD of Philips 315W T12/930 3k and T12/942 4k bulbs working on different powers. Hope it helps.

Second time, first time plants were orange peel flavored, hoping for the same this run.

Two more days till day 21 of flower and major trim.


I really have no idea what to expect from her, have never had a plant like this.

What strain are you running again, @gr865 ?

@chg'er

That happened to me a while back, Black Widow, bought 15 popped 10 from Mr. Nice Seeds 8 of the 10 were males and the two that weren't I chopped after 15 weeks of flower, they still looked like they were only a couple of weeks old. Went to the compost bin! They were very tall and lanky. I have 5 more vacuum sealed, that have been kept in the chiller, thinking of popping them some time and see how they do under the two 315W lamps.

Might try breeding one of these male tangies with my wifi if either of these have a strong orange peel smell to them, anybody know best way to determine male effectiveness for breeding other than just doing it?

@yada

If you are having problems with the strain, why breed? Find a stabilized strain and run with it.
Now this is coming from a person who has never tried breeding cannabis.
