Heya Ladies and Gents, been doing some 'work' in my favorite room in the hizouse.

I have a little sneak peak at what is on the horizon... :D

Panels, panels everywhere! Appox 839W of actual LED power, in appox 12ft/sq. That's just about 70W per sq/ft. :D

70watts per sq.ft. ...thats so unfair buddy :eyesmoke:

in case you want to know this, I am starting to feel like sb x haoma is one of my better cross, being that u like the purps so much ,... i think u will love this cross! I have different phenos but they all have wicked smell ... one would be a huge yielder with some veg time. but yeah I have started many seeds and I can guarantee u that I will be growing a few in the next little while because I am so pleased with 1 of them in particular in the grow room she is to die for. pics to come soon.

That's right Beef. This is the 21st century. No one has to live with popcorn buds! So what are we growing? And what's your temps with all panels activated?

I have;

1 Haoma (already 5 weeks into veg) :D
2 BC God Bud
1 Critical Super Silver Haze
1 Northern Lights x skunk

The temps? Not sure, lol - I have a 4x4 tent of which I'm using 3x4 - and I have a 265cmf exhaust fan. I also have a 12,000BTU ACU in the other room... ;) Just in case...

It was from breeder! (2nd hand) LOL

I have another Haoma outside that's not from breeder :)

After the Haoma is done I'm throwing a Grape God in there! :D

I purchased them slowly over a few years; can't really remember how much I paid for them. I have two other panels too, not sure if I'll need them but I could throw another 130W in there. So, the total would be 1023W over 12ft/sq or 85.24W/sq ft! :D

I think the PG-180 was $300? The Blackstar 180's were less, prob like $250 or something like that. The AF-240 was $900 MSRP? Shit I don't remember...

What's one more subscription?

I'll be here for the ride. That's a lot of power, but I trust your judgement.

lol the main panel alone would rock this tent just fine ... it's going to grow like mad in this tent!!

Yeeeeaaaaahhh.... I've used the main panel alone in this tent before with fantastic results, as you've seen.


My goal is to have 0% popcorn bud. I want just as much light at the bottom of the plant as the top! :D

the problem with ur setup is that ur sidelights are too strong (3 watters right? ) personally I would hang them at an angle next to the main light. Or else you reduce your growing area ... 4x4 is more like 2.5' x 2.5' at best. if you can keep the plant from growing too close to the sidelights, you will have very thick growth! I am curious to see how it will work out for you!

I am doing 12/12 from seed from now on in an attempt to keep the plants small. Small plants plus insane side lighting should give me the maximum yield I can get from my little buggers! When one gets the chop another will get sprouted! :D

The mammoth plants I had last time took too long to grow, and the canopy was so dense it was difficult to get light to the bottoms. More light, and less canopy should fix that problem.

when apache comes out with those t8 led tubes. those would probably be good for side lighting.

do sativa doms or sativas. i have a master kush x master kush 12/12 fs and its barely a foot tall and just started shooting pistils 2 days ago. when ive done sativa dom 12/ 12 fs in 3 gals. i got 1 zip to 1 1/2 zips. maybe could of got more if I used a larger pot. that was my first 12/12 fs. GS/endo gets the largest 12/12 fs yields I have ever seen so follow his lead.
