IKEA cabinet 210w Mars Hydro LED DWC "Training Day" SCROG

[hybridtek]

I know! They are stretching as we speak, I hope they don't stretch too much. I have about 12" of space from the canopy to the LEDs.

The 2 strains are: LA Confidential and Trainwreck.

This pheno looks like a BEAST, the growth is unreal...fastest and most rigorous I've ever grown. I am debating tying her down again somehow

Day 4 of flower, added Liquid Karma and Hydroplex for the first time.

It's early in flowering. If it were me, I would super-crop/bend over (maybe tie down), those top branches so they are filling in the open areas on the screen.

Use that initial flowering stretch to your advantage to help fill spread the canopy out and make it cover more area.

 

[hybridtek]

Yeah, I did that. I'll try and snap a pic but a majority of those tops have been tied down. The entire screen is filled, bursting with tops.

 

[hybridtek]

I am almost positive the timing was just right, I could've even started a bit earlier. She is stretching like mad. I just removed larger fan leaves from blocking new tops popping through and tied down 1/4 of the stretchers.

 

[hybridtek]

After tying down, getting hard to find room now...tops everywhere!

Day 5

Looking pretty dense in there, once the stretch is over you get a break from training.

Hello, Do you use Veg + flo light in flowering to maximize light power, or only Flo light?

Hello, Do you use Veg + flo light in flowering to maximize light power, or only Flo light?

Yes.
I use just the grow 140W for vegging.
Then hit the switch for flower, which adds 70w more.
So flower uses 210w with infrared.

Day 10 flower, still no flowers showing.

Screen is beyond packed...so many tops. good thing I didn't keep vegging!

Super tight and clean setup you got! I am digging it...can wait to see some little nuglets come down. Have you always been a DWC person or is this a first as well? Any initial impressions about the light?

 

[hybridtek]

Started with organic soil. Tried out DWC 10 years ago and was blown away at the results. The light rules! No heat, super duper bright, excellent penetration. Beats the hell out of a 150W HID, the equivalent. Might be on par with a 250W HID.

 

[kangrowru]

Nice! Thats sweet to hear that about that light, I have been curious about them. Making a switch soon, not sure which direction I would like to go. Choices choices choices

Mad props, keep growing!

Day 11 Flower. STOP STRETCHING! ARGHH

Decided to take some shots without the crazy bright LED on.
Spent some time tucking away fan leaves and exposing tops for an even canopy.

Still not showing flowers yet...c'mon!
