Thanks!! Gettin there!

And yes they are. 2 led. There a direct beam so they don't look bright from the side but head on wow lol

I also have the plant like 3" away I put blocks under it. Only running at 77 degrees when that close so

I am sure they will be giving you kots of pleasures as mature ladies, they look yummie!! :)

Very interested in the GU10..I have loads high powered 5-7w ones, but not specific to growing...are yours standard ones or are they grow-dedicated?

Cheers for all the updates btw!! :)

Mine are just standard house ones. I got daylight ones because still in veg. Pretty much any light that puts off good lumen and the right kelvin will grow a plant lol

I just bought the sockets, a bar to hook them all up and wired her up! There only 4W but that don't really matter with LED

Lol, well, in that case I am sitting on a lumens mountain!! Lol i shall keep an eye on your grow and come up with my own micro next year ;)
 
Wazzap!! :)
Today I am feeling all happy!! How are your little 'uns doing??

There doing good! My computer being slow so cant upload pics right now lol.

1 of them is farther along in the flower stage. Starting to see frost on top bud.

1 of them was really tall and skinny Lol. Not sure why but didnt look like the rest of them haha. So! I tied it down, it perked right up. And I tied another tall one down. Trial and error gonna compare which one yields better, tied down ones or the other 2 that are same level as them!

But there looking good :) Nice and green starting to stink! :)
 
Heres a couple pics.

The 2 back right ones are tied down. They were a lot taller than others lol. She recovered nicely :)

I'm a new-to-soil grower also. First grow (from seed) was good, and now I'm working with clones and looking for that "great" grow.
Curious to see what it looks like inside that PC case once flowering is underway.
With the stealthiness of the case, how do you combat the smell of the exhaust?

Well I don't have to worry about the smell. But can do a DIY carbon filter. Just get some screen material, panty hose, some pvc, activated charcoal from Walmart or pet store. And that would take care of it
 
Little update! I took some advice from an old time grower and trimmed some of the leaves hopefully didn't do over board but it cleaned it up a lot!

I have a question need some input! I was thinking about throwing in some high watt cfl bulbs ( blue spectrum ) along with the led for some extra wattage during last few weeks. Any input ok that?

Ya that was on the autos! Took 2 of them and cleaned up em pretty good! Experiments lol. Saw some of my buddies ( old school grower ) his autos trimmed them so much just straight bud no fan leaves nothing lol

I'll post some pics within the hour! I'm gonna add 4 68 watt daylight CFL also. People saying that blue spectrum will increase resin along with the LED ... Who knows!
 
Heres a couple pics. Not the best ones but!

First one is the autos.

Second one is with the 40W CFL bulbs I added, 160W extra in the room

Third is a close up of the one that is ahead of the pack, Lookin all frosty!!

Last one is a Clone im running under a 400w MH right now ;) Little sneak peak!

They sure are lookn great!! Yum yum on the bud too!! Having yours a little ahead just wets my appetite!! :D
Though mine will inevitably be smaller with the smaller pots...we shall see. Sooo impatient!! But not forgetting to enjoy it every step of the way!! ;)

Thanks! I don't know if yours will be much smaller honestly lol. Mine are only about 10" tall. But I run my led way closer than most I think. I backed it off a bit since added cfl in there. But the one of the close up Is gonna be done wayyyy before other ones lol so will have an early report on that.
 
Looking good Waterlab, I'm sure that they will put those CFL's to good use.

Thanks! I hope so lol.

So I've just accepted them being really short lol not sure what to expect for a yield but thinking the LED had something to do with it lol. Still think ill get a decent pull from it though!
