I never post everything in one place
I read through your thread on lighting, and saw the little excerpt about the LED. What was your total opinion on LED? Do you believe results like you have in this thread, which are incredible, is achievable with LED?

kinda, if I was to go commercial it would be with a combo of LED & T5
Interesting. Also, I notice you have been saying your plants don't smell while growing, is that a genetic trait that you've bred into them? I was wondering if it was genetic or attributed to the higher canopy temperature than most people. I keep my canopy In the mid to upper 80s and I don't have much smell either. Your plants are beautiful.

No I have grown many strains that are not mine, I have always said Happy plants don't stink, tis the name of my book lol It is all about how the garden is setup/dialed in, not just the lights, my buds smell awesome after harvest

I have not ran filters since I moved to OR. If I get to my door and can smell the garden you can bet something in the garden is unhappy that day.

if they stink while they are growing, they are unhappy, simple as that.
This is a new concept to me too- if what you're saying's true does that mean terpenes shouldn't be present prior to harvest? That if present during flower they're a result stress? Or?

Also if true, the no-smell-while-growing, if-growing-well theory would mean all the breeder claims of "really needing a fresh filter for this strain!" would actually mean they simply errored as a grower lol. Or perhaps there're exceptions?

Any science you have to back this up would be cool to see too, or even just more of y'alls experience... bongsmilie

I could type on this subject for hours LOL Ask any oldtimer from the woodstock era if the awesome weed we had in the 60's & 70's stunk like it does today ? It didn't, I was there :)

The stink happened in the late 70's/early 80's when Skunk #1 X Afghan came out, the beginning of Indica Hybrids and the implementation of HPS lights leading to more indoor growing

I well remember when it first came out, we all thought it was produced by the cops/fed in order to catch more of us LOL A conspiracy theory before conspiracy theories were popular :)

I have noticed this as well My Big Buddha Blue cheese does not smell either. Only if I accidentally hit a bid site or if temps get too hot. Other than that im dissapointed not to walk in and smell blueberries and skunk.

I think you guys are right. Every time my girl needs water or temps get to high it stinks like high heavens down there. Even my veg tent stinks when they need some water or some TLC. Now that I have everything dialed in in my grow area to keep temps constant 70-75 I smell nothing.
