Alright guys, first journal, few grows done, still lots to learn.
View attachment 4505343
This run we have got strains from ‘Seedsman’ , ‘Positronic seeds’ , ‘the plant’ and a few unknowns, 1 auto flower in early stage of flower but might take out soon. Strains are
2 Sticky Dream - positronic seeds (gg4 x blue rhino)
2 sticky dream - (from clone)
White widow - seedsman
Cheese seedsman 1 seed 1 clone
2 Dresden Green Dimond - garden of green seeds
1 Alaskan purple kush seedsman
1 critical purple kush seedsman
2 not known,
1 strawberry cheesecake autoflower seedsman

Grown in soil, normally I make my own soil but to be honest this run is a cheap one, it is just a mix 75% of cheap dank tomato plant soil and 25 % of premium soil light mixed together. Noticed slower growth in veg for sure compared to last few,

600/400w hps dual spectrum, added cheap China 1000w led m

temps range from 23c up to 27c (winter/spring)
In summer usually running 26-30c.

Plants are in 5L pots 8 plants been in veg for 5/6 weeks. Just added my first ever clones,

So 3 tiny few week old clones, straight into flower hopefully just grow tall not bushy to catch up to same level as the others,
I’ll update or edit this as I go along not sure what else to say!

just flipped the switch last night! 12/12 is in place.View attachment 4504967View attachment 4504968

Here’s a random photo from the last run,
Mephisto genetics - bubbbly livers left
Livers n cheese right,
Loved the structure of the livers n cheese and dense as hell buds. Can’t go wrong with mephisto if you like auto flowers! Buy seeds direct too they always give extra and freebies! They are great company!

First post fucked up, won’t let me edit it now I’ve left it a few days? Anyone know how to edit old stuff?

gonna try re do this from day 1 of flower, on day 4 now.

..so here’s day 1 of flower,

DAY 1 (12/12)
Sticky Dream - Positronic seeds.
Grew 3 from seed and decided to keep one as a mother, it out grew this one by miles, never grown anything from Positronic before but they have some mad limited editions on their website I want to try so thought I’d test these ones out that have been in a vault for a year or so! Anyone that’s grown anything from Positronic let me know how it turned out.

Sticky dream clones! 1 week veg,
Putting these baby’s straight into flower from clone.

Nice plants i dont grow in soil very often i find it takes too long and i have more control over the plant in water systems but hey some people say it tastes better in soil and who knows maybe it does I've never noticed the difference but my question is why the led?just for more light or is there science behind it?

@Theghostfromthecoast - yeah I’ve only ever grown soil, So couldn’t comment on taste change, and the light situation is just because I had it lying around, and I’ve grown with hps only and LED only, hps definitely yeilded better denser buds, but led grow was definitely more crystaly thc’s were unreal, so thought I’d at both lights? What harm can it do? Temps have been okay but in summer I might have to remove it! We’ll see if I can notice a difference in each side?

Day 4 - some of the girls starting to show signs of flower, the first pic is sticky dream clone that is on day 1 of flower, 1 week veg, the other plants had around a month of veg some more some less. Day 4 all good!

I only grow with hps too like you I wasn't impressed with leds but I felt stupid for buying them so I added them to my grow and I found for some reason the leds seem to make the plant produce more resin. I grew for 20 odd years and took a 10 ish year break upon returning to the garden the plant never changed but technology did leds weren't around when I quit but they are all the rage now .I got back into it last October and was told led technology just wasn't there yet but heading in the right direction I had too see for myself so I ordered about 500 bucks worth of those red and blue toys off Amazon and after about a month I was out buying mh/hps kits now I've been seeing people getting awesome results with leds and they say they have for years so hey I'm in ! but before I go dumping more cash into any leds I want to really see the results they're getting,pictures don't really mean shit and a lot of growers will add a few ozs to their final weight just to 1 up the next guy.Im building 3 new grows at the moment and I think I've found someone that isn't full of shit or to arrogant to talk to it seems once a grower has a little success he knows it all and everyone's beneath them.the thing that makes me laugh is after I've talked to some of these ass holes I realize I've probably forgotten more about growing then the pricks know about it so they weren't worth knowing anyway/lol but hey there are some really good honest people out their that are passionate about growing and will bend over backwards to help you...........just make sure they're not trying to sell you cheap led light from Amazon/ lol happy growing

@Theghostfromthecoast yeah im the same man, I keep reading good things about the led mars hydro, sp250 or the 3000 something, thinking about trying one out soon.
