I've heard it's good but haven't tried it a friend gave me some cheese awhile back it was very enjoyable evening smoke
This is a clone from a mother I've tried. If I don't mess it up it's really strong and nice yielder. My buddy is about 2 weeks ahead of me.

He grew them very different. He's using a 600w HPS
a 600 hps is a very formidable weapon lol I've used a 1,000 a 600 as well as a 400 & a250 the 600 was my favorite I still own a 250-400 switchable setup & a dimmable 1000 I keep the 250-400 for a back up I was using it up until a few weeks ago

Yes.....it's very nerve racking being on first grow and waiting to see if my LED is going to produce the same hefty big nugs.

Now from my research with my light it seems as if I'll sacrifice a little yield for a little bit of quality which that I'm ok with. But it still needs to produce some hefty bugs to be worth it.

In my case I started using my led at about the same time the hardest part was having to un-learn years of using hid lights and e&f hydro dwc as well as led lights are so different than what I was used to strain selection , veg times & a good tds meter are all important

Yea my veg time was increased a lot due to improper trimming methods and running into a severe nitrogen toxicity.

I mean I'd think I would of seen a lot of stretching and scarce nug sites if the light wasn't ample for flower. And certainly wouldn't see them filling in so nicely.

I think your lights are gonna work just fine my stuff under the leds don't stretch as much also they finish sooner

I'm sure my ph swings are hurting final product some. But I should be able to implement the RDWC system tomorrow night. Which will
Hopefully resolve that. And maybe last couple weeks can be stable.

According to strain info(not 100% its correct) and my calendar I have about 5 weeks left. Obviously I'll be using a microscope to look at trichs to make the final call though.

Thought I'd stop by.. looking good bro. How long have these been vegged for and how long have they been on 12/12 for ? (Light change)

They were on 12/12 one week before I considered them to be in "flower." My veg time wasn't good as this was my first grow ever and I ran into some road blocks

Edit: started on 4/26
