Mixing White & Multi Spectrum Chip LEDs to Grow MedMan Silver Skunk BX1

[MightyMike530]

I appreciate the overall structure of the plants, not just the trics and buds.

 

[PetFlora]

Thanks

Best I've ever grown

 

[Positivity]

Yup...looks really good

Bml is a contender..lol..

 

[PetFlora]

Started 50% flush Friday

still no cloudy trics

Thinking ~ 7 more days

 

[DiyKindaGuy]

Have yu measured the height of your ladies they look real tall

★★★kushed_out★★★

 

[PetFlora]

Shorty is 36"

BMM ~ 40", each of her branches is/are easily 30"

 

[DiyKindaGuy]

They look taller must be me did yu see that rocky mountain high video on greengenes page those lights are like the bmls yu got.. but look like they were using the ten watt chips idk

Do you have a link?

Breezed through his Apache v HPS but did not see it

He's confusing the illumitex x5 (bottom shelf white/red) and f3 (top shelf purple) Colorado dispensary grow that we've seen before pet.

 

[PetFlora]

Bummer, or not

My plans to isolate 2 lower branches (remember the 4 liter plastic jug?) to get just a few seeds was not successful

Oh, I have seeds developing alright, but even way up high on the plant

Life could make worse lemons

I took a lower bud from the SPYDR tent about a week ago and just smoked a tiny piece of it.

Oh happy days

SPYDR

As I have almost zero new pistils, but still no cloudy trics, I decided to cut the rez ppms back, now < 200. If I don't see cloudy trics by Friday (day 54), I may just put it in the dark for a few days then harvest

Nice, dense looking nugs. Thanks for the full grow pic, a lot of flowers your got there.

Yes that is what im talking about... didnt know the specifics i was assuming only cause of the general design (bar type)

SPYDR

I shut the lights off at 12:40

Cut feedings back from 1 to 3 hours

Before I head out will cut to 12 hours

From past experience, the roots stay pretty moist for a few days

UFO (no pics)

I added the 2 BML bars. Hung them vertically

 

[PetFlora]

Harvested today

Plants wilted faster than I expected

the few primary leafs I left stuck to the buds

The buds are incredibly sticky

trimmed as best I could for 2 hours

Still have about 1/3 to trim

 

[PetFlora]

Spent another hour+ trimming today

Here's pics of the haul

 

[GroErr]

Nice haul Pet What are seeing in density of those nugs? Any thoughts on the BML factor?

 

[PetFlora]

The buds are quite heavy, loaded with resin

My finger tips were literally so sticky I had trouble separating them

It's my biggest haul,

It's easy to say that the BML had a lot do with it

Hell it is 50% more PAR efficient than my 432w hot5

but my last hot5 grow was on track until I flushed using Sea Crop minerals and damn near killed it

Between the cost of the hot5 + all the exotic $$$$ bulbs, I had half the price of the SPYDR with annual $200 retube, making the SPYDR a bargain for many years to come

 

[PetFlora]

While waiting to weigh and jar the 2 plants...

Made lots of adjustments to the ufo tent

Added double stacked cubes to get more light in the middle of the 3 stems

This also allowed me to get the 2 BML closer to the plant

Looks like I'll have some new panels specifically developed for mj for the next grow

Will have 2 @ 150w for the small tent, need to replace it with a 6ft, or just raise the bottom

Also a 260w said to have higher umole than Ushio 1000w hps



Might do a side-by-side v the SPYDR

 

[PSUAGRO.]

Some more new toys for you pet? same company??...........specifically designed for mj seems intriguing, wonder what spectra they went for....

be safe

 

[PetFlora]

Nothing to do with BML

That's all I can say for now

He talks a good game

Time will tell
