Inexperienced with the light. I think my room was also to hot.

Had 60 plants in there had to re veg them so I think I let them get to tall aswell plus my timer fucked up near killed them.

A fair few things man haha

I’m gonna try again just 4 plants I think.

What you recon I should try
Gorilla bomb
Tutankhamen
Or
White widow x big bud

My best yielder last year was gorilla bomb if that helps at all and it was a beautiully aromatic dense bud that smoked well when cured and looked bulky, just be prepared for lots of training the stretch is stupid lol.

D8814502-3210-492B-B7C1-4F6845B20EF4.jpeg coming up to day 14..... bud sites starting to swell, got nets in for support, got my lights on the top of the tent, bent over the biggens, defoliate in a few days.... going through 30 litres in here a day.... I’m hand feeding and spending time to notice any problems. I can say the mites are dead.... any damage is minimal and I’m still seeing the predators on some leaves... might get one more bottle of just to be safe.... loving some strains more then others I would say the cake and chem is going B5CDBEBB-328D-4828-846A-F9640C4E0270.jpeg

Ah there all pretty good strains I’ve been wanting to try big bud x white widows for years.

I’m cash crop grower so like the idea of the big bud. Heard ppl say it’s shit heard ppl say it’s good. Wanna see for myself.

Big bud x strains are very hit and miss. They aren’t as heavy yeailfing as they make out and the quality is avaerage at best.

Maybe but even the best ww x bb I’ve grown hasn’t compared to anything else. Like it made weight but was low quality weight. No sticky resinous buds like the strains I’m currently runnning (paradise seeds nebula and Delahaza). I just popped my last 2 seeds of it though (for something different and a mate wanted to try it because of the big bud label) so I’ll let you know how it goes

At the end of the day everything comes down to grower skill. Don’t expect someone on their first grow to get 1gpw+ from a hps, wouldn’t expect the same thing from someonses first led run.

Apparently the go is to run a vpd chart for 2 degrees lower than room temp. Also keep the light as close as you can without bleaching/burning the buds.

What is a vpd chart

Yeah I had mine a fair distance away didt really fuck around with that to much.

That would have been your biggest issue. Unlike hps these don’t create enough heat to really burn plants but can make enough light that they’ll bleach them. Normally they are run with 6-18 inches of the plant tops (sometimes closer).

Ww×bb sounds nice, but in all honesty. Know nothing about the other two

How many lights in there? Havnt tried the predator mites, how effective are they? Although been along time since ive had any probs with them, bug mesh duct covers seem to do the trick, for any external intakes. Although had to order them from the UK co uildnt find any aussie retailers stocking them.
