i think one could have 10 of these and grow from start to finish with the 3000k led. they was cheap 16.99 each on sale. and now area 51 is saying that color bulbs are junk. white led can do the whole spectrum better. lmao. im thinking they may be right.

Lisa is loving the transplant she didn't miss a beat. I have noticed her leaves stand up more and growth has increased. Fed for the first time since transplant yesterday.

im sure im gonna have to do that to my blueberries. how long did it take to recover from the super crop? i am not gonna do it this time but when i get my big light i think i will do that to them.

D I'm truly a noob. That being said I do think that the earlier you start with the method the better the plant will respond. This plant I super cropped after the first true node( single blade leaf) and she loved it. Recovery only took 2 days. I was trying to keep her short lol. CYMERA_20131014_162349.jpg I also fim'd her and some lst. She was just starting to flower. After 3rd super crop of main stem it got hard as a rock. Thats why I had to lst and fim main stem. New branching I found can be supercropped after main stem is to rigid.

Good luck D

looking great. im thinking she isnt ready yet. do you have a scope mag you can check to see if cloudy and amber yet. when you get time turn off your lights or put in dark place for 24 hrs then harvest. let the plant thc up more.

lmao i took 2 plants out of my led flower room and pu them in veg room and the other one is blueberry and she showed me that she is female woot woot. know i know 1 of the females for sure. happy happy. i dont mind if she slows down to re-veg. well what is weird is they both was only down to 16 hrs of light when i moved them to veg room which is 18 hrs of light. so that means my flower room started the flower cycle already. but my other 2 plants in their are not showing any signs of sex yet.
