I finished my first 22 watt panel: 
I used Cree XB-D's (6 WW 2700K, 2 CW 6500-7000K, 2NW 4500K) and two 630nm golden dragons of unknown bins, driven @ 680mA according to my calculations and 600 mA according to my multimeter. The Golden dragons are a quick fix because there were no xb-d's to get at the moment. Still Have to put together 3 more panels. Can't wait to get these babies into my grow room!

Smoking it out .....

Have to download my mind first to update ...
Like ?
Weight ?
98 gr.
Super fine quality ....
Jock Horror auto. 11 ltr soiless medium. 12 weeks (1 week more than breeders words as usual.)
week 1-3 1 panel (24 watt). week 4-7 3 panels (72 watt) , week 8-12 4 panels (96 watt). light schedule 20/4.
the upper part of the plant (main cola and 3 bigger branches) cut down a week sooner than the rest. 65 grams of dried, kind of airy but really heavy because of the too much resin prod buds...
first batch:
second batch:
week 1-3 1 panel (24 watt). week 4-7 3 panels (72 watt) , week 8-12 4 panels (96 watt). light schedule 20/4.

Day 64 for my Nirvana auto Northern LED Lights...
Its really amazing how leds (especially UVs) reflect on the THC crystals producing very interesting colour combinations...
Trichomes are 70% milky,25% clear,5% amber...Hoping for 10-12 days left...(total of 74-77 days)...
Last day of any kind of fert today...Did a lil bit of trimming also for better light coverage
Enjoy

Thanks!
Bleaching ?
Taller tops are about 6cm from the panels.Smaller ones are 15-20cm

I mean no light saturation.
Although it is sure that the panels doesn't emmit enough heat to burn the tops, i thought that so close to the panels the tops would reach the light saturation point easily.
That means that the panels can be placed from 5-55cm efficiently and without problems.
Nice news for the closet growers like me

In small areas such as my box i think that the plants use almost all the light from the panels...simply because the light cannot leak outside...I mean no light saturation.

The whole led panel system is designed to emmit heat from the heatsink, thus the pcb and the leds are cool enough for the plant to even touch on them...(good air circulation is necessary)

Hola growers,friends and followers,
So ,a flush tomorow and im going to harvest in 5 days (exactly on the 71th day from seed ,10weeks and 1 day)
Thought to do a small smoke report...
Here i begin,
I dried the small bud under a halogen lamp for 1.30 hours...
Strain: Nirvana auto Northern LED Lights...
Smoking Method : A small joint mixed with 25% tobacco
Effect : Well ,so far, this goes (weedman is on weed right now
) exactly as the description of the strain is; "Head high and body stone"...my whole body is numb and i feel pretty heavy and stoned...difficult to focus,my mind and hands cant collaborate very goodindica high for sure...
the funny/weird/awesome part is that this is just a popcorn bud(aprox 0.6g dried) with 70% milky,28% clear ( i count it
),2% amber...and its not even cured...this herb is going to be really good
also my eyes are kinda burning or smthing...
Hope this is good enough to get an idea...to what's coming...
love
* as the time goes the stone feeling is getting heavier...going to sleep just perfect...
