first led experience

homero · Jun 6, 2012

hello I apologize in advantage for my english, after years of cultivation with HID lamps I have decided to pass to led light........ Hydrogrow 189xpro (consumption 350w).
Not having the patience to wait for better times (we are going in the summer time), and having a good experience of cultivation (for real I am very curious), one week ago I have begun this “experiment”. Chosen two Mandala genetics, fruitylicious and american dream femm….

i have no live the HID yet (hope my last cycle with that)
a couple of shot of lemon kush and lemon skunk

ciao ciao

hallo, here we are again after three weeks.... For this period of the year I am quite happy about this mandala strains, and the led too. The branches are short but thick (as a brick) and the main stem too. Despite the temperatures the plants look quite healthy ciao ciao

killerweed31 · Jun 20, 2012

lookin healthy baby there bro, one question ..how far is your led from plants? maybe ..just maybe you can put more close to the plants...anyway great job dude!!

homero · Jun 21, 2012

ciao killer, thank's for the suggestion.... after all this years with the HID I still live the lamp far from the top.

........ old habits, anyway I am going to wind down ciao ciao

Hi friend.

I'm very interested as I'm growing with a 135w led in soil.

You can tell these are Mandala strains... the plants look so solid somehow and their leaves and stems are so strong.

These remind me of Mandala Satori which I have grown before - and highly recommend to new growers.

Good luck...

I chose these strains just because i grew the hashberry and the speed queen a couple of times and because i read about their stress test (summer time indoor) highly recommend :biggrin:

ciao

LED can't be beat for summer grows!!! I have the 2nd gen 1w LED unit from HGL and have been running it for veg in winter, flower in the summer. Works fine but those x-pro units look enticing.
