Aiko - Day 61 -17th day of flowering I actually snapped a shot of visible bud formation! Normally it's all blurry, bah. Anyway... everything seems to be moving along just fine to me.

OK, seems like my plant has a bit of a problem... good I caught it early. The leaves are "clawing"; this is from excess salts build up, correct? I have 2.5 gal. sitting out releasing chlorine now. I sped up the process with some of my fish's water conditioner. I'm planning to flush tonight...

Nice idea you had there. I'll be doing a small-scale sog in the near future myself; basically my subscribe post for now. I'll be's'a lurkin' 'till then.

Thanks, lol. I planned to move it up into the closet a long time ago, but I didn't-finally-get my ballast till like 3weeks ago. Then after it was set up I was so lazy I couldn't pick up a 2 lb. plant and carry it to the room. It stretched a bit due to insufficient direct sunlight. When it was...

Looks fine so far aside from the bit of stretching. Bummer about the seeds man, I did that a few weeks ago(let them dry out after cracking).

A quick snap of my room with the plant in it. The plant is much fuller under these lights, setting it in the window for so long was a mistake I guess, won't do that again. Current lighting : 1x26w CFL warm 1x46w CFL warm 1x150w HPS 2x13~w(I forgot exactly) Flouro tubes, 1 cool 1 warm. All on...

Good point. My argument is now null, as you reminded me of the true nature of the forum.

I pride myself on being able to stay neutral, lol. I'm providing an argument for both sides, though shifted more towards LED's side (since this thread is about an LED grow heh) I'm the young arrogant guy apparently, while you're the old goat who gets to me by shooting down much of what I say...

As I said later in the post, Al, I haven't done it myself either. I'm keepin' an open mind about them, is all. The rest of the info about LED's you threw up was helpful, as I didn't know that shit. My responses come from what I do know, which isn't much; not what I don't know. Responding with...

Where did you obtain "900" from? Are you being sarcastic? Lumen doesn't mean a whole lot for a plant; we humans use it respectively to identify how bright an hps or mh would have to be for its use-able amount of light to be intense enough to activate and maintain photosynthesis. ex.) A metal...

Honestly, I think the LED thing would work fine. I think one guy, when they had just came out, had a bad experience. Not only that, people don't like it when they don't see INSTANT results and scrap them. Now 90% of people are biased towards not using them because of said person. They cost a...

Indeed, I'll keep an eye on yours while I wait for mine :)

Good news to report - I know a guy, who knows a guy that grows white widow. My next journal will be documenting a white widow grow, as I have a source for free seeds.... hell yeah :) :bigjoint:

Aiko - Day 52 - 8th day of flowering. Everything looks normal, right?

Not much to report today except that my lights remained on for an accidental extra hour. The HPS is on a timer, yet the flouro's aren't. Some stupid thing about all my outlets not having a ground spot. I have to plug the timer into a power strip; not the other way like it should be. So, from now...

Yo, I'm bored and plants don't do much in 1 day.. thought I'd share some of this stuff with y'all, lol. Some secret agents. The top one is straight up green, the lower is a greens/tobacco mix. Exciting! Some left over mix, bet you couldn't tell by looking at it? (Well, maybe, if you looked...

I'm taking notes.

An inspiration? Wow, awesome. :D thanks.

Sweet, my botched clone took root. I used a dull knife and scissors to take it as a cutting. No rooting compound either, and it was in free air for like 15minutes. Plus, I pulled it out of the rock wool twice because I was contemplating tossing it. Damn, I'm lucky, right? Lol.

Oh, that's right, that's how I had the test plant growing, with those two flouro tubes alone; propped up vertically. I'm going to fix that right this instant.... the previously used concept eluded my thoughts. Do'h.
