    Northern Grow Lights Photon 180 Citizen 1825 90 CRI

    Okay okay, back down to just the 1. Guess I will just have to wait on utilizing both when I move and can upgrade to the 2x4 tent. Well thanks @Evil-Mobo and @hillbill for helping me think that one through better. P.S. Happy Halloween everybody!

    :-?:-?:-? Hmm... I think maybe I really did get ahead of myself here and should pull the second one...

    I made the addition based on what I was observing with certain flowering areas that were shaded. But that really has to do with the type of training I did. I made the addition to just see how it would increase visible light exposure to the more shaded tops. Those areas are getting more light but...

    Hmmm, may have gotten ahead of myself here then... Looking at the Northern Grow Lights page it shows for the sq/ft area to be 1326 PPFD in μMol/M-2 S-1

    Lol, is that what this would equate to? I sense the sarcasm/humor but is 90 watts per sq/ft. a decent amount?

    [Update: Day 22 of flower (since flip)]: Spent like 2h reconfiguring and gerryrigging my set-up to include the second Photon 180 - 3500K 80CRI. The left side is the 90, the right side is the 80. The tallest tops on my flowers are only 25cm(10in) from the light so I may raise it a bit more...

    2nd Grow - Exotic Genetics Citrus Berry, Organic, Mainlined, 300W CXB3590

    I had some Kosher Tangie a few months back while out in Oregon. That stuff blew my mind away with the smells coming from it. I think you'll be pleased with the Tangie for sure. Would love to get some of these seeds too. The plants are looking good Slow_grow! Your comfrey doesn't look too big...

    Thanks. Yeah I am not so interested on this first grow with understanding my GPW, just becoming familiar with growing, the plant itself. It's more for my medicinal purposes and to have good quality pure medicine. Maybe later on I'll become more interested in dialing in these aspects such as GPW.

    Thanks Don. You mean the delicate method of knocking the flowers into a small container? I chopped the male yesterday into a large ziplock bag and shook it but the yield seemed negligible. It either stuck to the plant itself or to the sides of the ziplock bag or got absorbed into the plastic...

    Oh, P.S. I chopped most of the flowering parts of the male into the blender along with a mango, papaya and several bananas, blended up and dumped a bunch of mascavo brown sugar and some unrefined large crystal sugar along with several spoonfuls of LAB serum and jarred it up for a FFJ/FPE bloom...

    Well, after placing the pollen, together with a few male flowers that I either cut or fell off into the non-stick baking paper envelope into a jar with rice and into the fridge after a day sitting out, it certainly seems to have stayed viable during the week that I waited to pollenate. I didn't...

    Well 'Operation Pollen Collection' was less than successful. I had delicately captured some pollen into a makeshift envelope made from a non-stick baking paper, knocking some open flowers into it (while sweating profusely) and stuck it in the fridge. Today I decided to cut down the second male...

    Wow, another awesome thread I finally finished reading in its entirety. For one I am really curious what 'pmsl' stands for! LOL! Awesome projects @DonBrennon ! A lot of great inspiration for me. For one I am looking to make an FFJ right now. I'm in the tropics so following the original...

    I am currently looking to cultivate a fungal dominant AACT with some Vermicompost a local guy makes but if I can find a good source of forest humus, that's what I'll add too. Then mix it with ground oats and keep moist for a few days until the fungal hyphae really take off then mix that into the...

    So I made myself some CalPhos...

    In my fairly noob experience and extensive study, from all appearances that looks to be a P deficiency. I could stand to be corrected, but that is what it appears to be. I've been using The Marijuana Garden Saver handbook by J.C. Stitch as a reference for diagnosis.

    Just a couple close-ups my wife caught on her iPhone 6 which has a better camera than my phone, lol. @NapalmD I'm glad I followed your recommendation to tie down the two girls in the back, they've already turned their tops back up and the side branches are looking happier. Since I could...

    Thank you for your due diligence @iHearAll I don't want to ask you to go out of your way or anything to find some clear answers on this. But if it is for the sake of this thread and discussion, I thank you.

    pH reads at 2.8 I tested the solution with the bone meal.

    So I made myself some CalPhos...

    Did you use bone meal or egg shells? Do you think my ACV is too weak of an acid @4% to be effective? Should I try adding a more acidic vinegar and see if it causes a more visible reaction?

    @NapalmD I tried criss crossing it like you said but they end up overlapping too much that way so I went back to the way I originally tied down, how I understood your comment. But I tied them down a bit further and they're just slightly higher than the LST plants. ...Well I guess they all are...
