image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg Growing indoor, foxfarm trio, soluable trio ocean forest soil, no intake fan, just some filter pads covering decent sized holes in the bottom. External 6 in fan with carbon air filter thing, 2 computer fans fanning below the plants, two 300W led grow lights, square window fan on top in a home made 5'x4'x4' panda film tent.
going in my 6 weeks of flowering. Humid-lvl:52-55 temp:73-77 I have 5 plants growing in there. Obama kush in the middle, harlequin in the far left corner, Harleyquin something I have no idea what the name was called there are two of them sitting on the right, and cannatonic in the near left. Thought I would just teach my self on all the techniques of growing on these plants. But done a bit too much of topping & fimming for a little space, Is it gonna end up with some shitty ass pop corn nugs on most of them? are these buds too small cus I did that?

The issue here is not space or training or anything else really. They look nice and healthy. The only thing I would do differently is more light. Not that there a problem with LED. I just think that is a lot of plant space for the footprint 2 300w LEDs provides. You feel you need to raise them too cover the whole canopy which will minimize lighting capacity thus producing less dense and smaller flowers. Add some t5 and cfl bulbs...more light is ALWAYS a good thing.... But, I grow exclusively in HID...so what do I know?

Good Luck and Great Growz

Thanks dood! I do think that these two are not going to be enough, it already seems not enough right now, I'm just going to finish em off with these LED lights to see what LEDs can do after this harvest though I'm planning on throwing in a HID in the middle of them. Growers around me are telling me that I'm going to need one of those for a denser final product

Don't ask others opinions on when to harvest your gurlz...ALWAYS starts ridiculous arguments on RIU!!. Get a magnifier and check the maturity of the trichomes. It's ALL ABOUT the triches, my friend.

Don't forget that you can harvest in stages.

My first grow was harvested in three stages I had the impatient batch, the perfect harvest and the couch lock. I harvest all at once now, maybe in two stages with new genetics.

See what I mean...I know sunshine did not mean any harm with that reply. But, it illustrates the fact that there are a lot of opinions and advice out here about maturity and harvest time. But, at the end of the day it is YOUR grow.

I dont know if im right, but you might be able to connect both lights by daisy chaining them? I know something like that is possible on t5s

I'm not quite sure on this input. Would daisy chaining help me save more electricity? I got these to freely move the lights around.

Do you mean chaining the 2 LEDS together or adding an HID and chaining all 3? Personally if this were my garden. I would have the LEDs on the sides at slanted angles and the HID in the center....like this /```\
