Weeks are flying by now. Can't wait to harvest these. I'll probably start flushing the black dog after its next feeding and pull her out in 10 days to 2 weeks and let the mango soak up the photon for another 10 days to 2 weeks all by herself.
I was reading how that gnat problem could have affected the roots and in turn growth which I think it slowed down the mango a little so I'll just run her a little longer if I have to.
Both girls are mega frosty!

On flush mode coming down next weekend. Can't wait to try these!
Definitely suffered from root rot on the mango sapphire by not taking my own advice and watering with some h202 at every feeding during that heatwave but she still pulled through with some frosty dense nugs.
My buddy who's an outdoor grower stopped by the grow the other day and was shocked and said that little light made all that bud!?!
@robincnn this light definitely killed it.
Thanks for putting in the time and putting out quality work at a great price!
This was my first time using 3500k and I love it as much as the 3000k, but either color rocks in my book.
Can't wait for you guys to see what's up next. Stay tuned!

I love this. I'm looking at maybe 2 NL Photon 180v for a 3x3x6.5 Gorilla tent.
I currently using one photon in a 3x3x5 . tent is about one degree hotter than outside using just a computer fan on low fir extraction. 2 in your tent sounds perfect. I have another helping out a Mars 11 in a 4x4 . When that grow is finished Im going to have 2 in the 3x3 just in time for mid-flower. The 3500k 90cri version of this https://northerngrowlights.com/collections/all/products/photon-180clu1825

Killer lights imo.

Thanks fellas! I ended up chopping the Mango Sapphire a few hours ago. Caught 2 little fuzzy fuc*ers in the mix. I was expecting that anyway with the root rot and how triched up and greasy the buds were even though she was sick. Upon further inspection the rest of the buds were ok and quickly separated and drying on my trim screen now.
Lights out for the Black Dog tonight and she'll sit in the dark till Monday or Tuesday night.
Already been drying/dying in the pot the last 3 days. Should start off the cure nicely and lock in that funk that she let's off.

Man, I really pushed @robincnn hard to choose the 3500K 90CRI spectrum when he told me he was going to be sending a test lamp out to you. I'm so glad that's the spectrum you got to test out, great to see a finished grow. What's cool about 3500K 90CRI is it has a really natural balance of blue, green, and red relative to the sun (still less blue than the sun during most of the day, but not an unnatural green hump like 70 or 80CRI), and a healthy amount of far red, although I have no idea if it's enough to encourage earlier flowering. @Rahz?

I'm jealous of your finished grow, I started vegging with my 1818s at the end of August, and had to give those teens away 4 weeks later when I traveled. I've been away too much recently.

Anyway, really nice job man, those are beautiful buds. Two thumbs up.

Anything you noticed different compared to past grows?
