Lool you have lost your LITFA bottle i see..
I'm tipsy and this extremely sadistic lst make me happy!

:friends:


Normal LST breaks branches or plants for me.

I LST with lighting...

I'm not sadistic.
I aim for maximum yield, regardless of wasted electricity or time.
(but then I get drunk and break shit. Lol)

I feel to switch the lights again but diminish the ammount of hours..maybe ill do it tonight

I did the same thing myself.
I switched from 20/4 to 16/8...

The nodes stretch while she's sleeping.

My plant went droopy way too early too.
I turned down my intensity as well...

Breaking the branch are a good things to do (in veg)...now my mj#3 clone is too compact but if she stretch a little bit i break every branch, every 2 cm....the branches become much more stronger

I'm sadistic with plants

If you grow in a closet that has lights up and down the walls and on the ceiling, I see no need to break the plant.

I don't need to control the dimensions of my plants...

I just let them grow naturally and surround them with lighting.

Really easy.
Lazy farmer.
Lots of LITFA...
And just give her what she needs.
(Whatever that is, they always change their minds. Lol)

when i grew in my cupboard i used a lot of side lighting(300w cfl)
very effective the lower buds really benifitted from the extra light

Lol no i break every branch so they grow a bigger phloem and xylem (the vascular system) and become much stronger. It has not effect on stretching.

I grow in a bigger box so that I don't have to break nothing.

200 good grams from a single closet plant after 16 weeks with 220 Watts of LEDs.

Hi gizmo666 :wave:

So guys i switch the bulbs again, the younger girls are with the 9w like before ans the older girls get 4x 13w and one 15w tiny halogen bulb, all of them are about 25cm from the plants, the halogen is at 30cm distance, lux readings 18~22k, in this setup they were good so i expect them to be fine with them tomorrow, also, tomorrow the lights will start half hour later than usual and off half hour earlier too unitl i get to 18/6, wish me luck guys

The buds dont smell anything like weed, i can only smell something like brussels sprouts??kkkkk


I did let one of 9lthe 9w fall in distiled water, drying for further use in a few days, shit happens, i have the 8w philips that put out even more light.

Btw i didnt snap anything kkkkk :D

My auto get a pinch of epsom, 0.3ml/l of grow, 0.3ml/l of bloom and 0.2ml/l of calmag in the water, ph 6.6, drinked 1.3l of it with some drops at run off, first time they gettes grow and bloom nutes
, she dont give away any smell by now, but rubbing my fingers in here i scent kind of a fruity sweet smell

My the skunk get the same without the grow and the bloom and drinked 1l with some drops at run off.

Peace, see ya tomorrow guys :huggg:

So, I'm seeing 52 grams from the LEDs, but I'm not giving you full wattage for the halogen.

I'm betting on 60 grams at the end...

I roll my dice on 10g, if i expect on the low side ill be extremely happy if i get more, glitches kkkkk

OK, the bet is on.

If you get closer to 10 grams then I will mail you two Bridgelux LED strips.

If you get closer to 60 grams, then you mail me a gram.
(It's legal here in Ontario, it should get through Customs.)



No cheating...
You're not allowed to dumb down your plants.


I really do want to send you a couple of my strips.
They are very special. Lol

60 grams...

Okay,...

If you get less than 10, or more than 60 grams off your two plants, I will send you two strips.

Your country will surely allow two lights to be shipped in??

PS... Don't use a Devil Fan..
It's bad MOJO...

You need to use an Angel Breeze..

Yeah mostly everything, except buds, hash, you know..the laws in my country about cannabis are a bit strange..
Thats a deal then, 60gr 2 strips :D

Btw, a charger like that, they would need to be run always in the same power right?

Some power supplies can run off an input voltage of between 120 and 240 VAC.

The output voltage is adjustable to between 3 and 24 volts DC, at up to 2 amps.

My strips run test current at 0.35 amps each.

I can turn my strips from 0 to beyond full blast with the turn of a dial.
