    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    This is probably way more blue than necessary, but it's an idea for a flower mixture. It's 50/50 flora/actinic. My plants actually responded pretty well to the 50/50 Flora/Coral Wave the other day. This is the same minus the IR. If they do well I might keep it this way and then switch the...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Whoa! Those T5 buds look A LOT NICER than the HPS ones. They look practically white! They look fatter. I hope I can nail this T5 flower light mixture thing as you obviously have! I nailed the T5 grow spectrum for sure, but as far as flower goes I'm still looking for a good mixture. I'm...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Tell me about it! LOL At least I have back ups going in another area. I'm really close to my plants so I know what they like and don't like. I know for sure they aren't liking the Red Suns now. Seems really crazy though ya know? You would think red light, is red light. Maybe these are a...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Looks nice! I hate to say it but.............after only 24 hours I am not liking how the plants look. I've put the 50/50 Flora/Plant grow back in to see if the leaves perk back up. I've taken a picture with the previous light mixture so that I can compare and present the differences so that...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Here it is, my final flowering light fixture! I'm happy with this setup since there is more red than blue now and I'm gonna go with this mixture for sure so that you guys can see what it does. No more changes until I add the UVb(unless they start to look like shit). I'm also happy I was able...

    I changed again. One last time :) 3 Red Sun, 2 Fiji Purple, 3 Flora Sun. The Fiji already has 420 and 470 plus the additional red that I want in the mixture. I will do a color analysis later today.

    I'm gonna try this for now at least until flower set, then I will put in the UVb and switch out a blue plus or actinic for a coral wave?????????????????? Sure would be nice to use the spectrometer again to check out this mixture,

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    They are clones from the same plant I'm thinking now that the fixture was closer to the canopy than it should have been because it was only 2" away and the red sun was the only light getting to some of the leaves, so I moved it up to 10" as recommended by hyroot. switching to red sun/blue...

    When I do hydro, every leaf is still green also. In fact, my hydro crops never even get one little yellow spot on any leaf the entire time. Even when I'm flushing, the fan leaves stay green. It's pretty crazy because I've always been under the impression that you actually want the leaves to...

    lay off the ammonium choloride,......dude...... or at least get yourself checkededed out, at least quit smokin your fertilizer. No, but really, you're not seeing the same picture, I know what fan leaves do before harvest time, this seems a little excessive though like something happened during...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    What happened to all your fan leaves? They are all yellow and crazy looking. Did you have a bug problem or heat? Do you think you are lacking in the far red spectrum? What is your opinion on the 2 fiji, 1 red sun, 1 blue that you are using? Do you think the plants are needing any other...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Ok? Is this right? 3 Red Sun, 4 Flora Sun, 1 Actinic? How do you have them arranged in the fixture? I don't see a photo of your light configuration anywhere. Your plants are looking badass though, I would really like to use the red suns since they are soooo red, but it seems like they are...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    well on a positive note, when i took the red suns out of the fixture and put in the coral waves the twisted leaves straightened out. I have 4 coral waves and 4 flora suns in there now and all the leaves look good(last photo i posted). the red suns seemed to make the leaves twist and cause some...

    oh shit, didn't notice the previous post. so yeah. hey the aqua-medic plant grow bulb rocks the shit, but it's pretty much identical to the cheaper flora suns. any reason not to get the flora sun bulb? can't wait till the ultra growth pepsi cola bulb comes out or whatever its gonna be...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    That bottom bulb is the aqua-medic Plant Grow bulb. I know it looks a little different than the one on their site. I think it is the previous version, the Planta bulb. Either that or it was just an old spectral analysis that was taken with the bulb a little bit closer to the optic fiber...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    How about 6 flora suns(or plant grows) and 2 coral wave? Seems like it would work.............has all the peaks right??????? How about 4 flora suns and 4 coral waves in a 50/50 mixture, I'm gonna leave the 50/50 flora, coral in there for a few days to see what happens. I know a few people...
