Day 32... Man, what have I done? These seedlings aren't do very well at all. The are going all yellow. New roots are growing daily at the bottom of the pot though. This one I fertilized a little... This one I didn't fertilize: What have I done!? I had to prop a couple of them...

Man, what have I done? These seedlings aren't do very well at all. The are going all yellow. New roots are growing daily at the bottom of the pot though. You can read my full thread to see what I've been doing here: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/88781-led-panel-grow-low-ryder.html...

The other good thing is that the light has made the place a bit warmer. Temps were about 15C (59F), now they are about 18.5C (65F). I can't get them much warmer at the moment, but I think the foliage should be pretty warm this close to the light.

Day 30... The HPS has been on for 2 days and there's definitely a noticeable difference. Those LEDs suck. Yesterday I fertilized them, it was a bit experimental - I'll keep doing it for a while. * 2 are getting watered with the brown liquid that collects at the bottom of my worm farm. * 2 are...

It's night time, there's light leaking out all over the place from the shed. The LEDs weren't so bright and had a nice purple glow which wasn't very noticeable. Looks like I'll be doing some work to patch things up tomorrow.

Day 28... Didn't check them for 9 days, didn't matter too much, nothing really happened. Don't think much of these LEDs. A month for some little sprouts! I am switching over to 250W HPS, lets see if they take off. New lighting

Day 17... Not much happening at all. Gotta go away for 5-6 days so I just topped up the water and I'll leave them going. HPS will probably be delivered while I'm away, I hope it doesn't rain with the package outside :-(

I had 1 panel about 3 inches from the plants before. It covered all of them. The 4 panels seem much brighter on the plants though.

I can't find a full LED grow either. I'd be happy to leave it grow but it's torturous when things happen so slowly. They are in seed raising potting mixture, so it's probably low nutrient but I don't think it would make so much difference. Maybe I'm wrong. I could try fertilize 1 of them today.

Day 15... Man they are really growing...right...maybe not...ordered a hps last night. They have grown a little and are nice and green but it's way too slow. I've got them on 24/7 lights, it's a bit cool 17C. Anyway, it must be the lights.

I'm skeptical of the LEDs also. Checked them today and they've grown a bit, they don't look that unhealthy out in the sunlight, though they are real slow. I gave them a water for the first time and watered 2 of them with the stuff that collects at the bottom of my worm farm, along with a few...

Day 13... It's 3 days after the last photo. Should make it about 13 days since I soaked the seeds. Stetching has stopped, but not much is happening with the leaf growth. A bit bigger, but seems slow to me.

I think 1 led panel isn't enough. In a few days I'll be able to see if 4 panels is enough. I did have the seedlings outside for a few days so they may have stretched from that too, they weren't getting much sunlight to begin with.

2 days later.... Stretchy...I'm willing to give it a bit more, not sure if they have stretched much in the last 2 days though, the leaves are a bit bigger, maybe a week then I'll buy a 250w hps if they get too stretchy.

Trying out these LED panels with some Low Ryder #2 seeds. Not sure how it's going to go, but it's fun messing around with it. The seeds have been going for about a week. Left them outside for a few days until I could be bothered putting them under the light. I only had 1 panel on them until I...
