I can't tell what's wrong with this one. Am I under watering it ? Or over watering it ? I will state that I have not watered untill there is runoff because I dont want to down it . Please help
It looks as if she’s stretching for light. I would suggest putting the light closer to her. Besides that she looks good. Keep it up!! Check out my seedling time lapse with a $45 600w led from amazon light 2x2x4. Check out my time lapse video.

This us my current situation in my closet. Will have a 2x4 tent kit with 600w kind led in a few weeks. Its ordered but they take forever getting it all put together for some reason. I'm waiting for my seedsman order as well. Hot some purple lemonade autos coming.

stop using only the veg switch only use both all the time. the light is pure trash and even worse when only using the blue side of the light. i have used them lights for years they are bad when use incorrectly. just my 2cents.

Thank you man, I will do that. The small light I started them with had red in it . Maybe the lack if red is causing it or just the fact that there is not enough power with just veg.

Anyways, thank you

i have no idea if red makes any difference all i know is my plants grow better using both while in veg. yeah the vipars are pretty weak. mine is 270w from the wall and is not really good enough for a 2.5x2.5ft space in flower 2x2ft max @ 18 inches

one good thing ill say about the light is mines been running about 3 yrs with no problem. mine is retraining after this grow

i have put a little amount time training this grow but this photo is in a 2.5x2ft space @ 18 inches 18/6 lighting . 4 weeks veg but from established clones

I had to buy this in the spur of the moment when I found out my kit would take so long to get to me . I just had a small light to get them to sprout and thought by the time they got bigger I'd have my tent with the 600w kind led.

This had the best reviews for the price on Amazon lol.

So I guess now I have a light to use to get clones and starts going while I wait for the flowers to be ready for harvest on the current grow

its a good light to learn with on the cheap personally im happy i went for a vipar over a more expensive led because light isnt everything when it comes to producing good plants. id use it a few runs before spending more money. unless you have lots of that to go around

have you already payed for the 600w kind led. if so how much was it and can you get a refund. that's old led technology you don't want it anymore. id suggest starting a post and asking what led you should pick up next. id suggest a few but i have not used them so i cant comment even if i already know they are worthy

Honestly dude, cancel that order and order everything yourself, how much is that package? I bet you can get much better equipment for cheaper buying it yourself!

I just looked at the K3 Series 600xl (is this what your getting?) and it costs $595 on sale, is old tech and the actual wattage is 288, trust me you are getting ripped off but you have come to the right place for advise!

Personally I would buy a quantum board straight off the bat now to get them above your girls, send back the Vipar and get your money back, then start ordering everything else, you will end up with a great setup, if you get this bundle you are getting now you will want to upgrade pretty soon I'm sure.

Your decision though bro and not trying to sound like a dick just trying to help out a fellow grower!

Sorry man not trying to hijack or troll your thread but here is another option for setup which will be better and cheaper then the package you are buying, please just think about it as these guys at supercloset are really ripping you off.

You will need some cable and wago connectors for the light and although it is DIY and not plug and play a 10 year old could put one together in 20 mins.

Tent


$135

Light


$280

Driver for Light


$65

Inline extractor fan


$150

Automated Pot System


$220

Carbon Filter


$60

Total $910
Supercloset package $1295

You could also save on the autopot system if you water by hand but I just tried to match what they were offering in there overpriced package

The sole reason I got a supercloset kit is because I have no idea what everything I need is.
Like what goes with what. What size, blah blah blah.

This eliminated all that . I know there was cheaper options, I was just being lazy lol

I'm not unhappy with my purchase.

However in the future i will more than likely upgrade.

I tend to buy totally the wrong things lol. So I thought maybe the kit would help eliminate some of that .

All that being said, I do realize I wasted money. However to get a jump start, I cant complain. I used a 10% code from the 1245$

I guess in a sense the only thing I really wanted was the grow tent lol. I wasent going to get one of their cabinets because they arent worth the 2k plus .

The main cost is the kind led. While it is out dated . I have read good reviews and apparently they last quite long .

On a side note, does anyone know anything about them electric sky 300s?

Buy Quantum boards, an HLG light, Cobkits, RapidLED ,or a Timber light.

Electric Sky is similar to Kind LED, a ripoff for what u pay. Kind lights are using 6 yr old technology, not efficient at all.

I get what your saying, when your new its complicated what exactly you need so buying a complete kit seems like it makes sense, but these guys are ripping you off, seriously think about cancelling that order and getting a refund on that Vipar, you will have the tent up and everything running in a couple hours or half a day at most, here is a complete list of what you will need to make it easy for you, this setup will grow you top shelf weed if you get the right genetics plus you will likely have some change out of what you've already decided on.

Some bits you can probably find cheaper but I just quickly found shit on Amazon.

Dont regret your decision in 6 months time!
