[MAJOR-RED-EYE]

I just found this on the mars hydro website they have what looks to be an updated version of the reflector coming soon

Don't those guys realize their English is terrible? They need help imho

And their 'facts' need too be confirmed too

 

[MAJOR-RED-EYE]

I know lol it's worse than terrible. all the emails I received back from them when I asked a few questions where really detailed answers but in the worst English I've seen in quite a while but the lights I must say are great I seen a poorly written thread today from the makers of these lights asking for links to grow journals from people who live in legalised states that they could look at and maybe use a few images from as it's against the law for them to use pictures taken in China of these lights being used to grow cannabis but they are allowed to use pics from Colorado etc..

Hey all,

Got the root rot straightened out, and have some nice white roots now! They have all grown well now that that is solved, however I have been nursing them back with CFLs so I will switch on the MH LED on soon and tell what exactly happens when I switch it on.

too much tech for my liking guys but the plants look well so results speak for themselves.i just like the old plain and simple i am more than capable of using this tech but for me and as was proved in an earlyer post to much reliance on mechanics although when i go bigger and i am when the times right i will defo b looking into the smartpots seen a guys setup [miccyj] and it looks awsome no pumps just gravity to keep everything flowing nicely but those girls r coming on great looking the biz....

I use the Original Autopot system from the inventor in Melbourne, Australia, and really like it. I have noticed that some mob in the UK has copied his system and not 100% if its identical or not, but as with every system there are pro and cons.

The "pros" of the Autopot system, I will be basing this off the original system from Australia, is that it is one of the most convenient hydroponic systems I have come across to date.

• no pumps or electronics (unless you use his automatic dosing system, which is more geared for aquaponics anyways)
• easy to clean and maintain
• kits are inexpensive and only moving part is the SmartValve, which is like a float valve inside another float valve.

The "cons";

• I will mention this first as it is the major set back, you salt build up rises to the surface of your media, which in turn can percipitate back into your root zone
• system cannot be flushed as it all regulated via a SmartValve and refills with nutrient solution accordingly.
• I personally feel that the dry period for the roots is not long enough, so in turn reduces the lack of oxygen supply to the roots.
  
• also because of the sub res on each pot to hold the SmartValve, That in an enclosed environment such as a grow tent or cupboard grow your humidity becomes too high during flower stage

Hello all...New grower here.

I purchased two MH LED lamps...the Mars II LED Grow Light 400W & the
version and the Reflector LED Grow Light 144x3W.

I put some bagseeds into soaked rockwool cubes 28 days ago and has real leaves appearing less than a week afterwards.

Nutes were brought up slowly (12.5% at a time) to their current 75% of the recommended 1/1/1. I've been running 75% nutes for the last 10 days.

Temps have (mostly) remained consistently in the low 70's to 80 with humidity levels hanging from 30% to 60%...but rarely below 40% in the last couple weeks.

the plants are currently just under 12" high and I'll switch to flowering soon...and remove what I hope are minimal males once I determine sex.

The plants are clearly responding slightly differently to the two different MH lights (I have the bloom off on the reflector light and the MH II has no switch.

I had hoped to scrog/top more than I have but I've been sick for damn near two weeks. So, very little training has been done on any of these plants.

It's a bubbleponics grow I set up based on the "How to grow weed easy" bubbleponics tutorial with only slight variation from their suggestions.

looking good mate

 

[Greenhouse;save]

Yea they r looking good and you can defo c the diff in the two lights.....node spacing in particular....

 

[MAJOR-RED-EYE]

This was mine on first day of flower I haven't had chance to take any more recent ones but I'll get round to it soon

First grow. Wish I found this a month ago. Have 2x600wt MH w/ 4 four bangers 1 at 6 week veg, 1 at 1 mos. and the other 2 at 2 weeks. All in 3x3x5 tent. Have another tent coming, going to make that the veg tent and switch the seedlings and 1 MH 600w there. My question is going to brake up the 2 oldest 4bngrs into 4 5gal of 2 plants each, is the lone 600w going to be enough for the 4 bucket spread? Will upload pix too. Have orange spots and some nute burn. Started a cal/mag treatment today going ff Sunday and cut the nutes to 50%. Any other insights?

 

[WazzaX]

1 x 600 watt should be fine with that area...watch your heat you have some taco leaves at the top...fans should sort it for you

My 2 cents worth, I would go 1 plant per bucket and LST/Supercrop them and throw a Screen over them...with a good eye on watching your leaves and correcting for burn and purple streaking for Mag def., as well as the proper training combo of fimming, lst and supercropping you can yield 2x+ more than two plants in a bucket. Other than that, your plants look alright except for that leaf taco that Wazza mentioned

Hello everybody!
I have to say that I agree with Bams,go for a SCROG! That the way I grow too!And with this light,I believe it's the better way to grow...You fill the(metal)net,to have a "carpet"of buds,it's so beautifull
See you peoples...

 

[WazzaX]

end of week 6...things are still going great with no problems to report...the flowers are really sticky and have a heavy smell

 

[littlejacob]

Hello growers!
Look like you gonna have a good senescence WazzaX when do you stop nutes on your ladies(do you say ''flush''in English for the last week of bloom?)
Have a ''high'' day...
