Thanks bro! They are doing well these Pre 98s. Just make sure to have the right humidity and proper air circulation, because I was battling PM in the beginning of flowering! Link me to your journal if you have one

Nice man nice I just started my platinum bubba run the other day, no LEDs this time til flower possibly in conjunction with hps. Cost wise the combo makes more sense than firkin over copious amounts of money to pull the yield I want. But I still get full spectrum with the extra penetration I been wanting from more higher powered panels. I'll be going back to full led after a few pulls to get hinge Rollin

Sounds pretty G'd up with that setup. I don't really worry about yield anymore, because I have a good excess amount of medicine stored up. I still have at least 10 ounces of my last harvest plus excess from my previous two harvests. Building my library of different strains is definitely becoming a reality. After this Pre 98 I have Vanilla Kush from Barney Farms already 2 weeks in from seed. 30 more days and they should be ready to flip once my bubba is done. Pushing them out like a mini factory. But its not for sale, just all for meeeeee to smoke!

I would have that much too If i wasn't supplying for family lol

It has been about 2 weeks since I put these Barney Farm's Vanilla Kush in Soil after being germinated. I just transplanted them into Sunshine Mix #4 today into bigger containers( was in styrofoam cups), and fed them week 2 veg nutes from House and Garden. Hopefully I didnt feed them too quick because they have been in FFOF for 2 weeks. I am using my 300w Lighthouse Hydro LED to veg these lil seedlings. I am on Day 30 of Flower today for my Bubba Kush, so hopefully these babies will be ready to flip right when the Bubba are done. Here is a glimpse of the seedlings.

So we are halfway there! The ladies are looking mighty sexy. 30 more days and these buds are going to be fat, overweight lil hoes. Everything looks on schedule.. Just gotta keep up with the serenade and fight that PM till the end. Im pretty sure I got the PM under control, and its my bitch now. Im also pretty happy that my next lineup had a 100% successful germination and seedling survival. Started feeding BUD XL last feed, so the buds are really going to start fattening up over the next few weeks. Here are some pics right at lights out and with the lights on for you. Enjoy!

looking real nice.......

Are you worried if god forbid something happens to one of your seedlings? like male or hermie? any back up plants in your closet you are hiding from us?

I purchased 10 feminized seeds from Barney's farm, so I hope everything runs smooth. I think the vanilla kush is my last run before I move to another bigger house. I'll be able to do 25 plants there.

Nice man, i just moved to a new house myself. Do you plan on still using blackstars at the new house? I got a much bigger space than before and got a 1000w setup, just to make things easier. I still havent fully tuned into led's yet but they are my veg lights for now. Whats your new setup looking like?

Probably going to get 6 more 500w blackstars. Have 4 4x4 tents and maybe a mother/clone tent. Not till I move I'm April.

Nice man

Hello, I just received my 500 watt Blackstar & noticed two of the LED lights have no visible light emitting from them. Are they the ultra violet or infrared diodes? I've been following your threads sleey, very educational ....... thanks!!!!

Hi TRIPurple! Those two lights that are not visible to the naked eye is completely normal. Don't worry! Thanks for following!

You know I wish people would read manufacturer Ads it clearly states there about the diodes. I know why people hate on LEDs so much they buy shit without reading anything and wonder why it's not the king shit of lights. C'mon people do some research about what u purchase before u purchase -_- being awake at six am without a toke makes for a grumpy kaptain.

I thought you just harvested?

Everything is looking very good on day 32 of flower. The buds are definitely getting fatter and developing into minature colas already! I dare not to touch the buds anymore, because when I do my fingers instantly become sticky and stinky! Trichs are developing and becoming more prominent. PM is now my bitch, and if I see any signs of it, I saturate the girls with Serenade. Hopefully tomorrow there will be no signs, or I will spray their weekly dose of serenade. I know you can use this stuff till the end of harvest, but I am really trying not to use it, because it smells like shit. Even after a couple of days the smell subsides but I still hate the rotten balsamic vinagrette smell.

Yea lol I did but that shit flew lol and I had left my big jar at home and i was away lol

Looks fuckin good man keep it up

Looking good

yeah, i think i have the air circulation down pretty good . But i dont have a way of knowing the humidity or temperature yet. I havent invested in a thermometer yet.
