Here's my first cheap,ghetto grow lol

Genetics - Cream of the crop K.O
Cream of the crop Cash Crop

Potsize - 20lt

Nutrients - Canna Coco A+B
Cannazym
Rhitzotonic
Canna boost
Nirvhana

Also got powders - Ton-o-Flower
Ton-o-bud
Fox Farm Open Sesame
Fox Farm Beastie Blooms
The Heavies late bloom enhancer which I have still to use
Also mix in 2 tea spoons of mollases

I'm growing in around 70-60%Coco 30-40% Perlite

The K.O is I think 3 weeks into flower I'm not really sure as I lost track, it's around 2.5 feet its quite bushy more than the pics show, and has lots of bud sites

they have been grown under a 120w Led panel each, (not the expensive ones, some cheap China models) got them for around £45

It's flowering really slow, maybe cuz I filled the 20lt pot only just below half due to not having any soil left? Should I start pumping it with nutes or just back off n give plain water .

The Cash Crop is alot younger around 2-3 weeks younger, and I left it really close to the led that after a week the top had totally been completely toasted, it was pushing up on the led,i removed as much dead dry brittle bits I could, it's showing signs of growth which tells me it's still alive and hopefully will bush out, so I guess I kinda accidently topped it? Autos are quite unpredictable

Here's the Cash Crop before it got toasted and roasted

I have used basic lst techniques on the K.O e.g. Tucking and gently bending eslightly etc
However I don't know what to do with the Cash Crop, it's mainly indica and it is growing as though it will only have one big massive coala, how do I get more, I don't think lst will work as it's leaves are fxckin huge and thick, the stem is so thick that the plant will not budge n inch?

I'm using led because that way I don't need exhaust vent, carbon filter and all, he'll I don't even need a fan as it's kind ov warm when the lights are on

This is what the K.O will be similar too


Genetics and info
As you can see it's says 60-65 days but I'm really not sure how old she is lol.

All I know is she has been in flower for around 2.5-3 weeks
Do you think I have to change light schedule I'm using 20 on and 4 off?


Here's the spec for the two led panels I bought

well I must say I'm not a big fan of most led panels, no offense. If you are flowering your light schedule should be closer to 12/12. When in flower do not crop, fim, top or any other invasive training. Is there ventilation?

I thought they would flower no matter how much light the get, so I was thinking the more the better right, and there is no ventilation,

that's right its an auto my bad. So yeah, your schedule is fine, you should incorporate some ventilation. what are you growing it in? is it airtight?

it's my friends closet, which is why I haven't gotten new pics up, it's a small room but very spacious and has no ventilation

Also I know this is jumping way ahead but will I need a fan when drying? Or not

Here's more pics off the K.O today.
How long do you think left? It hasn't swelled up as much proberbly due to not enough soil? Or maybe the LED's aren't strong enough.

Here's the burnt Cash Crop, it has done amazing it doesn't even look like it was burned a week ago.
It has got a few tops now rather than just the single top so yea that's what I wanted
BTW the yellowing is not a deficiency but it's the burn marks from where I roasted it dry

Well if you do have dead leaves on the plant it will still try and send nutrients to the leaf that could have gone to new growth! Your choice.

how close are you running your panels ?
and do you have a fan blowing on the plants ? a fan blowing on the plants is kinda required for proper stem development ........ the lower dead leaves could be from lack of air movement ..... also the leaves are showing some heat stress ...... i believe im running the same or close to it panels just from what youve said about it .......
and how do you get fresh air in your box ... i noticed you said your not running extraction fans
