Sicc,

What up man, happy Monday to ya. The girls are looking teriffic and technically its only been 2.5 weeks because of that slight period when the girls were all yellow and sick. In your honest opinion are they ahead of schedule, on schedule, or behind schedule?

FYI - The seed strains are:

Purple Mr. Nice Guy (front right)
Medijuana (front left) - slowest growth
God Bud (back left)

Well with the pH problems you had for a lil bit i think it slowed em down just a tad.
I would just keep vegging them as stated, and let them mature and get some more growth going before you flower them. You're doing fine man, keep up the good work.

SICC,

Thanks man, that does mean a lot. I wanna get this right the 1st time, so that it comes out as some beautiful buds. I appreciate you taking the time over this past month to help me.

Hey Everyone, I'vDSC01236.jpge been wanting to upload high resolution pics of the girls. The mobile camera didn't do the girls justice. And as you'reDSC01251.jpg looking at the pics, there is a yellow tint that is cast onto some leaves, but the leaves are not yellow. It's the reflDSC01242.jpgection of the light onto the leaves. Check it out. AG + UFO LED does work. SICC, lemme know what you think buddy. =)

I really have nothing to compare it to honestly. I started off with the original AG grow light and did massive research about energy saving grow lights. I'm all about conserving and not wasting. The technology is simply amazing. Everyone has had proven results with hps and other lights. A lot of people knock these lights, but they mustve not followed directions. So LED's are all I know and as long as they do this I'll keep using them.

Day 34 from Seed:


Girls are looking real good. I've been constantly trying to re-arrange the plants on the AG so that they're not getting crowded. Probably another week of veg stage and then it's definitely time to start flowering.

Damn that one in the back is taking off like crazy, and those alother two are really stocky, the small on the left has some insane inner growth haha.
Another week should be good, hopefully the front ones will catch up. Keep up the good work.

What up everybody. I'm stuck at work now so I haven't had a chance to post newer pics...but when I get home I will do it ASAP. All I have to say is they're looking phenomenal.

My question is this.....I've read mixed reviews about cutting off smaller leaves. Should I or should I not cut the leaves in between the big ones? Last thing I wanna do is cause added stress. Will probably start flowering next Monday.

Day 37 from seed.

I've included pics w/o the LED lights. As you can see, they are thriving and flourishing just fine. About another week and its time to start flowering. My place is starting to smell a bit. I catch a wiff everytime I walk in now. Pretty soon, I'm going to have to move my cabinet away from the living room. Oh yeah, and it's drinking a shit ton of water. The AG jug is maybe a little over a gallon, and within 3 days, it needed more water. Let me know what you think.

Oh yeah, for those of you that doubted the LED lights....see for yourself IT DOES WORK. Please pass on this thread to readers that want to see legit results with the UFO LED light. If anyone has any questions, please PM me. Thanks.

Yeah the AG is just about a gallon.
Once you start flowering, they can easily drink a gallon in a day, so make sure to keep an eye on that.
For clipping the fan leaves, i would do anything as of now, but down the line if you have to, its ok.
As long as you do a couple laves at a time, and spread it out when you do it, thats what i usually do when trimming and i haven't had any problems.

Day 42 from seed:

As you can see from the pics, they're doing just fine. =) Starting this monday I'm going to go ahead and switch it to flowering cycle. I've done quite a bit in this past week to get it ready for flowering:

- Finally did a transplant! Switched it from the AG to a standard kitty litter tub thats about 3 gallons or so.
- Rigged the box with one 30 gallon Elite air pump, with 2 - 5" circular air stones.
- The amount of bubbles now is insane =).....looks like a mini whirpool.
- Also moved it into another cabinet for the dark periods.

With SICC's input, I've gone an topped God Bud (Front Left).....Mr. Nice Guy (front right) and Canadian Sir (back) seem to be just fine.

Any other advice guys? Oh, I've also cut cutlings for clones about 3 days ago.

Scott,

I don't think it should be a problem. The original grow cabinet is still the one I'm using but now the closet is within a closet. The humidity and temperature are still being maintained at a constant 78 degrees and 55% humidity. Thanks buddy.
