Power Skunk Under Led

If anyone has grown Power Skunk before, any sort of info you could share about this plant would be appreciated. She could be anywhere from 3-5 weeks old from seed and was under two T5s that entire time up until I got her last weekend and put her under the LED. She has more than doubled in height and just about quadrupled in width in 7 days. Not sure if it is the lights or nutrients I'm using, but all 3 of my plants would be crushing home runs in the MLB right now.

Havent decided on what to do with it when it comes to flowering. I want to, but since I currently have 2 white domina autoflowers under the light at the same time, it might be tough to do both at same time. I'm either going to flower it under a friend's 600w hps, or have to take power skunk out of grow space each day for dark cycle somewhere else in my house.

The light is a 3w 180w extreme flower panel from advanced led. It was a little pricey but I'm super happy with vegging quality, expecting good results during flower as well

I sure hope so. I'm already looking into the next panel I'm going to purchase so I can increase my grow space and number of plants. I have it narrowed down to another of the same panels I have now, the blackstars like youre using, and a couple other brands, I think the isis and spectra...

Frequent visitor to LED Users Unite! Good source for info, but some of those guys in there talk like someone out of star trek, way over my head, and since it could either be spot on info or totally wrong info and I wouldn't notice the difference, I always take things away from there, or any forum for that matter, with a grain of salt
 
someone out of star trek. i feel ya bro lol. i'm looking at the advanced led's as well for a small grow space and your comments are very promising. you too kush. i can't wait to get started

i'll put up some new pics of her tonight. She's grown so much since a few days ago, she's almost the size of my smaller of the two autos. I'll also show you my setup, or just check my journal entries, pretty small, I just sectioned off half a closet but it's the perfect size for 3 plants, and perfect for me right now. My 2 autos are showing early signs of flowering too so I'm super excited. I think next week I may start flowering the power skunk too

I planning on setting up a 4x4x6.5 grow tent. I was thinking about buying 2 180 watt advanced led panels but I'm not sure if both the panels will cover the 4x4 grow space. I'm thinking of just getting a 600 HID light instead. I checked out the led growers unite thread a few times to get some info but I'm not sure if it's worth spending $1000.00 plus for two led lights. I'm really interested in seeing how your grow goes. Good luck!!!

I think in a grow space that size 2 of the 180w Advanced LEDs will be fine. for veg I can say that with confidence since that's about double the size of my grow space. Id imagine they'd be enough for flowering in that space too. I'll be updating occassionally with pics from flowering, so stay tuned.

Id say if you have the cash for two panels, get them over a 600w hps. The costs of venting, cooling, and pge are going to come close to same price as the LEDs by the time you harvest anyway, but with the leds you skip all that and by next grow the lights have paid for themselves and it's happy growing at a fraction of the cost.

I'm thinking about maybe making some homemade co2 for the girls sometime this week, should be a fun science experiment

I was thinking of buying 2 of their 180 watt led panels myself. The only thing is that I dought that it's going to be enough for a 4x4 ft grow space i.e. roughly 9-12 plants. I'm really interested in seeing your results. Good luck!

The Power Skunk...ready for flowering. And you can see it's in there with my other 2 White Domina autos. I'm running out of space in there! I'll be examining those two autos more closely tonight to check how the flowers are developing, removing a few of the older bottom leaves as needed. I'll try to get some pics up of them later tonight too
