    Ancient Forest Humus: has incredible microbiological diversity the ultimate natural compost
  • Large Perlite: non-toxic sterile odorless material improves drainage and aeration that promotes strong root development
  • Premium Earthworm Castings: red Earthworms are fed and an all organic diet and vermicompost generated contains a diverse and abundant microbiological community
  • Miadenwell Diatomite Silica Stone: a rich source of plant available silica which is widely documented to stimulate dramatic growth in plants thereby increasing their resistance to disease

We know you will enjoy your "Bag of Biology™" and all the complex microscopic pores which provide the perfect "condominium" living environment for its countless microbial communities, as much as we have enjoyed rounding them all up into the bag."


i will update as things progress.

this test will be as objective as i can possibly be...a test of the 126 LED light to show wether or not it can produce as mush bud and as dense of buds as my 400 watt HPS does.

here are some examples of what the light has to live up to, and my usual results under the T5 for vegging and the 400 watt HPS for flowering:



i usually run between 8-10 plants under the HPS...and get roughly an ounce or so per plant...

all plants will be vegged for 4 weeks and then flowered until done.

maybe mrwags can pop in and give us an estimated flowering time...

let the fun begin.

peace.

Hey Sleepy, subscribed and looking forward to this led grow, looks like I managed to grab a front seat too. :woohoo:
 
Good luck Sleepy. Could you tell me the dimensions of the LED light? Also how close or far from the 5 plants will the light be kept? do they run cool? "Got to keep on truckin on"
