From This clone in a Dixie Cup to a Half liter Container, Starved for nutes for most of the grow i was to scared to give such small plants more then 600 ppms but they are eating 1200 like its a snack and they are still hungry.IMG_2070.JPG

9 - QB 288 (3000k) Boards One HLG-320H-54 Driver 319 Watts.

I wont hit a gram per watt because of the way i rushed these tiny plants into the tent, and i could have got 36 in there instead of 25 with no issues on space at all. Have lots of rooms on all four sides needed a larger tray. Using a (29 inch x 30 inch tray) they are all about 12-14 inches tall.

Anyways I Cant wait to see what these Quantum Boards will do with some plants in real containers fed properly and rooted and vegged before going into flowering.
THESE lights rock!!

And you have never had a problem with the moisture inside the bag sterilizing the pollen?
No ... Since I am keeping bag dry and vented , it dries out pretty well. I manipulated branch , if pods come off easily ,, remove branch stem.

I have done this before - since I only do small seed runs ( as I am the only user of end product ) PLUStge fact I got more seeds than I know what to do with. I don't try to " clean out " the pollen .... Just work it into a corner , roll brush into pollen and use. I don't mix in flour or other shit like that .... Just dip and swab.

@Budzbuddha I plan on going down the same route. Once I start pheno hunting some regs I have I want to try and fem some seeds.
It's kinda fun mixing up the gene pool sometimes ....
I tend to go light on my seeding ... A branch maybe 2 . I am doing autos with autos , for now but haven't really looked for any regulars to play with. There is those like @HighLowGrow that has been fine tuning his seed runs and his doing some great plants.

I should have SELFED that GSG I grew sometime ago , now I have just variants of that plant. So those show slight variations like structure , etc. with a few showing more DADDY traits than the mom GSG .... I kick myself for that shit.

One the the ak48s I have going I would have liked to have femmed some seeds from. I have some Green point seeds RHS x 98 Bubba, The Deputy and Night Rider I will be looking to fem out. I don't mind going throu packs but since I'm on a smaller scale these days, I need all the chances I can get for fem plants. Growing out plants that are male is devistating as I only sprout what I can handle/need.

Wow im way too tall then. Ill drop them to 16 inches and see how they like them.

I thought I read somewhere here that they should be no closer than 18 inches.

This is for flower. Im running (4) QB304s at 1050ma over a 4x4 scrog. Room is about 65F lights off and 72F lights on

There were some inexperienced growers saying they got light burn a while ago but it was really just nutrient deficiency

EDIT: I meant 85 watts... not 54..

I'm running 4 QB304 at 800ma for about 85 watts per board.I'm keeping mine at a constant 24" anything less than 18" and I'm getting light burn. some strains tolerate a little more than others, be cautious

If you up your nutes I promise you won't get any light burn
