Just tried some of my mini cool cab with LEDS - harvest..Not a paid advertisment..

I was amazed at the end product the mini cool cab produced. I got the UFO LED lights. They are amazing. Virtually no heat. :leaf:

I did burn many plants by using to much MOON DUST. The few plants I saved - The C-13 clones did well. The time table the manufacturer suggest was obviously wrong. I kept them in flower for 5 extra weeks and could have gone another week or too. Then again I didn't fluctuate light distance - so the lights remained near 1 and a half feet from plants the whole time.

The box was poorly made. A buddy came over and really tweaked it. Replace their little airstone with a long airstone.

I notice the machine gives you aggressive veg growth. I'm thinking flower is flower and budding is all genetics in regards to harvest times.

Box leaked light like crazy. Had to use some stripping to seal most.

Fortunately the 1600 bucks came to me easy - so I don't feel duped. I feel more giddy to see I can grow hydro. No more bugs, just fresh robust green.

The end product - great medicine. The light UV spectrum proved true in these LEDS. I know some LEDS perform poorly. These ones are the real deal. No bugs. No heat stress.

One thing I have learned about hyrdo.

1. A bubbler and air stone are miracle workers.
1A. LEDS are the way to go. I used (2) 90w

I started wit 12. Far too many. Just finishing up 5 grand daddy purples. I think next i wanna get a more straight up and down strain. The issue ponder is the roots all getting mangled - or is that not I worry?

Oh well - the end product was amazing. Looked better or as good as the 55 per 1/8 at the wellness center.

I am thinking of maxing put potential by going with 2 or 4 next. I think the bubble will max out and larger doses of the fogger since less plants. This should really speed up the process.

The tubbing does get clogged with heavy PPM fertilizers..easy to solve issues if you have some patience..

The LEDS kick ass. Next to no heat. I have a cola slammed against the light (my fault - didn't go 12/12 soon and the cab is limited) and it looks killer. Can't wait to medicate it.

Many said bad things about LEDS. These lights have the necessary light balance needed for quality veg and flower.

I have some GDP outdoor also - can't wait to compare.

2 weeks and you have not seen any action in the flowering process. That is very strange. Gotta be the strain. Is it jack Frost? A very high quality low yielding sativa? I am sure you see the plants in the process of starting to flower and thus bud?
