Thanks for dropping in zach
The lower buds on my plants are well developed and solid
So I would have to say the light penetrates well
Better performance than my 400w hps

hey... good to know.... i have 2x315 cmh's in a 4x3.5ft tent, using phillip bulbs , n the penetration in a word, sucks... very unhappy- i have 2 1000w hps/mh, but turning one on in the tent, with the light at the top of the tent, the temp on the floor was 92, on a 20degree day outside... so it appears i gotta get a fce4800 ... many thanks...

Yea I hear you
That's why I went to Leds the heat from the hps inside the tent was off the scale
Good luck

day 66
LSD started getting a purple tone to it buds are very resinous
theres a sweet smell to it i cant place it(like a cakey smell lols)
freezeberry is such a fruity smell i would say the strongest smelling of the room
sour grape thats fruity diesel i like that pungent smell of it
triches are still cloudy mostly i've seen the odd amber triche
but
not yet patience is the hardest part sometimes

on a plus note
the postman came today

so i guess i better prepare for the next adventure
so I'm asking for advice from yourselfs out there
i got 2 choices for soil
choices are
PLANT MAGIC SOIL SUPREME
PLAGRON ALL MIX
any thoughts on what one to choose??

thats it for now folks
peace

 

[bibi40]

All are very frosty and true beauty !


for the soil i don' t know plant magic , for the plagron i just know their light mix and i don' t like it , too heavy - not enough aerate for me but perhaps their all mix is better so wait for others answers .

Cheers

final weight of the widow is 30.5g in the tub to cure for a bit

gizmo... how is the penetation to the lower buds... thanks

thought of you and took these pics all the plants are like that

I like the purple tones coming through on the LSD25 x sour bubble

some bud shots

Day 70
jeez has it been 10 weeks already since i popped these seeds not knowing what to expect
its been a good learning experience this run built up my confidence a bit
helped with my deperession and gave me a small escape from the realities of life
i dont think they'll run much longer hopefully another week the white widow maybe longer
i'm still looking for advise on which soil to get(see last post)
i've got to say the ionic nutrients are excellent but potent the plants love small doses
going forward i'm going to remove the ballast from the light and put it outside the tent next grow
just trying to drop temps this grow has averaged 28°c - 31°c depending on how warm the house was
so i think moving the ballast out will make a good difference

big thanks to Big D(wont let me tag him?)and also bibi40 for the seeds and making this grow possible

LSD25 x sour bubble

one has followed the lsd line(2nd pic) looks like the other has followed sour bubble(1st pic)

sour grape x sour bubble

freezeberry x sour bubble

and the white widow just didnt know when to stop stretching
fattening up well now

and some bud porn

take care all
peace

[exploziv]

Some great buds in there, man!

 

[gizmo666]

Thanks folks

 

[GMT]

Can't help on the soil front sorry, I use clover Irish peat moss.

 

[gizmo666]

still waiting on the triches changing
becoming more amd more impatient lol

this is the LSD x Sour bubble every bud on this plant is solid and glistening

and the smaller of the two freezeberry x sour bubble
(the larger is in the background)

hopefully wont be long now
peace

I'm in the same boat, tapping my fingers waiting for trichs to turn.

maybe try yelling at the plants and perhaps swat them with a rolled up newspaper,let 'em know who's boss

day 62
took the plants out of the room today and tidied them up a bit
amazed how these are finishing
all the buds are very solid and dense smells are very strong tho I'm not sure how to describe
except the sour grape that is so sweet even sugary smelling
just watching the triches now they could all be coming out soon
very happy with the results from these now
i suppose i better get my next seeds ordered I'm thinking about growing gorilla glue any recomendations as to what breeders????
have to say I'm very impressed with the FCE3000 the performance is excellent my plants thankyou Mars Hydro Led
anyways heres the pics





white widows I could'nt move them as they need support from falling lol
the larger one may run a bit longer as its not as developed as the rest definately not from the samr batch as the other widow its very dense
room shots


bud shots


sour grape close up

just goes to show what is possible in small pots
and also answers a question i seen asked "can auto's be done 12/12 from seed" well yes thats what the white widow are
do I recomend 12/12 from seed ....no not really theres not much to gain
I dont think time wise you really get harvested quicker you maybe save a couple of weeks at the most but you'll lose yield
and i personally think the plants are not getting a chance to settle into thier domain before flowering which i think gave me the feeding problems
not to mention the pot size!! i'll check the roots out come havest time should be interesting
thanks everyone who posted for thier input and advise
kind words mean a lot
take care all
​​​​​​​peace :friends:

Glad to hear that you are happy with it.

day 72
havested the freezeberry x sour bubble tonight
got to say i was impressed. under the new light the buds are definatly better developed than i've grew before
the fce 3000 performs excellent without doubt worth the money
the smaller of the two freezeberrys gave 130g the larger 145g so 275g total
going by the usual 75% loss i reckon i should get around 70-75g dry
for going 12/12 from seed i think thats not to bad

pics of freezeberrys before harvest

the LSD25 x sour bubble will get harvested tomorow if i get time
got hospital with the wife tomorow
LSD25 x Sour Bubble

the sour grape x sour bubble and the white widow i'm gonna let run on for a bit

sour grape

lastly white widow

take care folks
peace
