Killing it Blynx!!
Anyway you can take a closer pic of the buds with a lighter or something for reference?
I know GG4 is no slouch in the yield department and those buds are looking full..

Anything you would change for the next LED grow? Extra light? How do you compare these to your CFL grows? Is it LED from here forward for your micro grows?

I was looking back and forth between your LED and CFL grow but pics are hard to tell.. Looks like your getting better buds from the LEDs

I'll take a pic with a lighter when the buds are dry.

I'll either keep the same lights or maybe try some 10w LEDs in there.

If the overall wattage of the cabs is lower with LEDs while producing a similar yield, I'll probably stick with LEDs in the cabs.

So I had this small GG4 I transplanted to a larger container so I could veg it out a bit before throwing it under HID.

The plant was real small when it started and here's what it looked like after 14 days of vegging under some daylight CFLs.

I happened to have started doing some measuring of lux output of CFLs and LEDs at the same time this plant had been in this cab for two weeks vegging.

It was then that I decided it would be interesting to see what some of those 10w LEDs might do in this cab, so I decided to swap out the bulbs in this cab.

I run the 11" x 11" CFL cab with 5 x 23w SoftWhite 2700k CFls for a total of 115w.

Here's the heights of the CFL fixture with the five 23w CFLs.

The measurements I got from the 10w LEDs was a lot higher than I expected, so I'm thinking, what the heck, lets try running 3 x 10w LEDs for a total of 30w compared to the 115w I was running.

Here's the heights of the LEDs in place

how many lumens in this box?

grouchy · Nov 17, 2015

I'd be interested in the lux readings at canopy level for both the cfls and the leds. Has the temp dropped since the switch?

Yea this is the same cut. First smell you get is a kinda sugary smell, then the Shire smell appears.
