Nextlight Mini 150w grow

Results are in! So far this has been my best gpw since I started growing!
Plain and simple, the Nextlight mini kicked ass!!
I will definitely be doing another grow with 4 plants from seed under two mini's very soon because I am still in disbelief.

I always did 2 plants from seed under my cobs running at 240w and only once got close to or almost hit a gpw and that was with a single Lemonwalker plant.
The fact that there was 4 healthy clones and that I had the tent dialed in definitely played a big part but it makes me think how much more could I have really pulled using my cobs with an extra 100w in that tent.
Let's see how I do from seed under the minis next time like I've been doing with the cobs. Regardless, I am definitely a believer! Funny to think I doubted this lights capabilities at first.

On with the numbers
Plant 1 - 54.2gr
Plant 2 - 54.7gr
Plant 3 - 51.7gr
Plant 4 - 42.9gr
Total - 203.5gr
ALL FROM 139 WATTS AT THE WALL!:weed:

Cheers and thanks for following along!!
I picked up the same light/tent combo for my first grow almost 2 months back. I know the light was new to the market but the low heat signature and power from the wall was a huge selling point for me. I can't wait to see the results!!! :-)

sorry to dig up this old thread, but can you tell me how much total vertical space you used in the end on this grow. None of the shots that I saw were zoomed out but it seemed that you had plenty of vertical space left in the tent.

I can't recall the the total vertical space used but I could have ran 2 of the same grows on top of each other in the same tent which was a gorilla lite line if that helps.

thanks, I was guessing you had plenty of room left but just wanted confirmation.

Beautiful grow! I have a question, what sort of ventilation setup did you run with that tent/light?
Thank you! Basically none, a 15 watt duct fan I used as an exhaust and a 10w computer fan hanging from my scrog screen blowing under the canopy. It barely got a few degrees above ambient in the tent.

Trying to be as nice as possible but i think a lot of what you consider bud i consider popcorn or trim, those containers don't have many actual quality top nugs from what i can see. Grats on the haul and nice numbers but i think they are a bit exaggerated by including the popcorn. Those types nugs in my grows get thrown into a big bucket and run as hash.

No offense taken. It wasn't a dense pheno to begin with. I had similar results a few weeks prior with their mom under my cobs as far as density goes and my buddy also ran a cut outdoors which actually came out a little more airy than both lights but I'm sure you'd have something to say about the sun as well.
The lowers were tiny but they were more solid than typical popcorn nugs. That's why they got weighed.
I turned almost all of it to shatter as well. I would love to see one of your grows one day just to see what your golden standard is. Any links?

Not trying to be negitive or down you, just thought a lot of what you posted looks like trim material and not top shelf buds. Here's what i consider some top shelf buds, i grew all those. Cheers, maybe better luck next time with your phenos. Those arent the biggest buds i have grown, i can go bigger for sure and have been recently, watch my IG if you are interested i got some big buds coming this run @colorado4weed2love0 .

Never did see this thread. Great job! Impressive.
Do you still have the Mini? I see you w/ the QB's now. I like the idea of the 5 & 3k mix.
I wonder if it has advantages over all 4k.

Yup! I bought one, took it out of the box, plugged it in, went blind, put it back in the box and I'm in a holding pattern until several months from now until I will be able to get it into real action. But it's a no-brainer the thing puts out a lot of light for a low-wattage fixture. Can't wait to try mine out, too!

Do you plan to flower with your Mini?
