I didn't even know about the herbies place.... i wish i would have known a couple weeks ago... they are cheaper than single seed where i ordered them. i bookmarked that place already so next time i am ready!!! I'll be watchin out for your update!!!! same thread right??
Thanks so much dude!!! I am very excited to see how much this light is different compared to what i have.... I'm gonna take all kinds of comparing photos!!! on to more important things.... how are your girls?? i saw in your thread you were having an issue..... any improvements on them yet? I'm gonna swing by your thread right now and check it out.Those are some frosty fucking nugs stoney, great work broCant wait to see what you do with all LED

LoL, yeah, i picked some good ones i hope, herbies is great and the free seeds now too. i just hope ordering like that, 1 of each, they all grem or grow, LoL. they had the best prices of all the places i looked at singles, and ship was $13 now, still not bad. yes, when i start, i will just pick up where i left off on the old thread in my sig. and how bout stoney, he flop out again tonight, sucks, none of them made it to the next round, but we did have a hell of a day with the mat and the night cards, 5 wins and a bunch of board hits. and bro, those are some frosty ass buds!!! LoL.

Thanks man!! I hope things only get better from here on out!!! I'm still not sure if I'm gonna chop her tomorrow. if not, I will showcase my new setup and go from there.
Stoney sure shot out of the gate this time though, no slacking on that part!!! I saw your wins in the 7th and 9th.... the only race i missed was the 2nd but i saw all the others that hit the boards!!! congrats on that!!
as for the seeds, i felt the same way you do about only having one of each. I was gonna go one of each, then i decided to buy 3 of the TD. I'm gonna grow two of them and have one for backup... one will be grown for lots of clones and the other one will be grown to get in the flower box quick to try it out.

stoney, those pics of wonderwoman look awesome man. do you think the dt hat helped this time? looks like maybe you got more buds than usual but no mega cola? wonder what the weight comparison will be... anyway, the new seeds sound great (and same with yours, cd!). thanks again for the striking bud porn bro, can't wait to see the chop down!!

Thanks homer!!! yea i really feel the DT hat worked great on this plant, better than the AK, the BB i have growing is benefiting just as much as this one is. you're correct , there isn't any mega cola but there are more buds than i would normally get. I can say this WW will be my biggest yield out of all the other WW's. I'll know next week... yea, next week. I'm gonna have to skip a harvest this week. she just ain't ready yet!!! next week for sure though!!!!
Thanks man!!! great to have ya along.. i wish i could asy i have a chop tonight but sadly I'm gonna wait to next thursday.... I'll get some bud porn up though!!!!!!!! here's some rep for hangin!
On a good note I received two new items today.... both my LED panel and my seeds showed up on the same day!!!! crazy right?!?!!?! i guess it was meant to be!!!
my lights don't come on for a half hour yet but when it does I'll take some photos of plants under it... until then here is a side by side of the two panels.... pretty easy to see which one has 1W leds and the one that has 3W LED's. huge difference!!! and also a shot of my new beans... I'm gonna put em in soil now!!!

It will be worth the wait. I can't wait to see the chop and get the smoke report after its cured.

Thanks van!! I have grown wonder woman a few times now and i gotta say, it's one of my favorites!!! If you are ever on the fence about which strain to choose i highly recommend WW!!! It has such a sweet smooth taste, kind of fruity with a tart after taste. It reminds me of eating sweet tarts when i smoke it. the stone is strong and long lasting! my friend calls it "tail light weed" he says he feels lost in the tail lights when he smokes it!!! it is normally a short flowering plant, but this one is taking forever!!! I put it in the flower box a week before my AK-47, and i harvested the AK two weeks ago!!!!!! rewards to those who wait!!!! so I'll wait.... and wait... and wait
here are some fuzzy penetration photos of the new led panel.... my first impression is holy shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is MUCH brighter than my old panel.... it has more a purple look to it than the other one. time will tell and over the next 5-6 weeks i hope to have noticeable differences in my plants.

thanks dude! I just checked the trics on her again and most are cloudy but not by much... there are still quite a few clear ones. It's been a while since i had any WW... I can't wait to vape it up!!!!
Thanks Meta! I am very pleased with the initial observations. My soil and perlite has never been purple before!!! as an experiment I will not lollipop the next plant to see how it handles it.

It is a GLH spectra 180. The old panel is a tri-band no-name model. If your looking for one to flower with I suggest, GLH, ISIS, Blackstar, and i hear good things about Black Dog panels. Don't believe the BS in the coverage area... they all seem to exaggerate to much. If you have any specific technical questions about them, I will be as honest as I can with them.... as with everything i share!
sub up, join the ride and check out some cool pics on Thursdays!

I remember looking at those when i first started out. I'm glad i didn't buy one. just as a small supplement, and very small, it would help. it could provide some vegging help to a plant but I don't think it would help with flowering. you need 660nm of red for flowering.
there are some tricky sales pitches on their website.
GlowPanel 45® uses only 28 Watts of power and surpasses the output of a 250 Watt HPS - easily providing five square feet of coverage for your garden.
"surpasses the output of a 250W hps" in what way? is what they don't say. It is not PAR that is for sure.
next... "easily providing five square feet of coverage for your garden" so do my Christmas lights if I hang them up high enough. what they don't tell you is what kind of coverage? not enough light to grow but enough to read a newspaper.
I don't want to steer you wrong but i feel if you saved a little more money.... maybe $200. or so you could get one of these and you would notice a huge difference.

Good information I like a straight shooter no BS. I'm not ready to venture into the LED grow world yet hehe. I'm just getting use to the HID's. What do you use for veg stoney. I'm thinking of scraping my 250watt MH for either a 4' 4 lamp T5 fixture or a 4' 8 lamp T5 fixture. I need to cover a lot more area. I keep mother plants and clones in this area.

yea man, no BS here... just cool people and dankity dank!!!!!
well it's not a total LED grow... yet. right now, just starting a few hours ago, it is a LED only flower area. my veg area is currently 230 watts of CFL and 70 Watts of HPS. I am going to remove all the CFL's and HPS and put in my older LED panel. Then i will be LED only!!! I'm probably gonna get kicked out of the CFL section huh? i wish RIU would make an LED sub forum.
I think T5's would be a perfect solution for ya. clones and mothers love those T5's. plus it would save ya some power!! how much do one of those 4 tube fixtures with lights cost?
