hey davzap, looking good man.

i see you got some buddage started, now the fun part begins.....waiting for them to be done and calculating yields based on eyeballing your girl....yay

seriously though, i just want my girls to be done already, they look so tasty but they still have a ways to go. im gettin sick of spending money on local schwag when i have hydroponically grown nuggs in my closet:D

Thanks for showing up you guys. Let me ask you, does it seem a bit slow after the first pistils and then till bud appear? The boy is quickly loaded up but the girl seems behind a bit. Comments?

He started shooting his wad. White powder spilled onto ;leaves, disgusting really. No self control this young month old boy shot a wad, or a few.

Thank-You tngreen. You made my day, to know that I may have provided an actual chuckle is great. Not as great as growing good bud. But I must say that meeting you other growers and seeing your grows is inspiring. Its made me be more active. So I thank you for your company.

And now fotos.

Really depends on how mature they are. If i'm starting from seed i wait until i see preflowers (pistles) before i switch the lights. Usually the plants are mature by this time. After switching the lights, it's usually towards the end of week 2 that i start to see bud formation. Bud formation is still relatively slow to the 4th week

Slow bud set can also be due to less light intensity. Do you know how much your LED's are putting out compared to an HID?
 
Whats the deal on LED growing? Is it supposed to have a more effective "per watt ratio" ???
Just curious, sounds interesting.
Anyway Dav, its cool to see you doing this, may your buds be full and hearty.
My friend and I have 4 girls in flower under a 150watt hps with some supplemental cfls. Let me say that touching those many white hairs got me in the mood.

LED lights are way more effcient on power consumption but then you run into the problem that they're not cheap and it takes alot of them. Plus they generate very little heat.

Thank-You Chiefsmokingbud. According to your experience, this plant is on schedule. The HPS LR2 is one month old now. It has got a bunch of pistils. :woohoo:

The LEDs are high efficiency. They are not optimal for buds, as is. They need a little extra something to get a really good bud. You are growing with 150w HPS + CFL< thats cool to combine lights and build up those total lumens. I'd like to see your grow. Good Luck with it. I hope that you get good buddies.
PEACE

Chiefsmokingbud if the LEDs are reasonably priced, as they can be had now, they will pay for themselves in electricity saved. At the very least they can be used to partially veg. They can be combined with other lights as side or lower plant lighting. offsetting your utility bill.

My new keyboard lights up. Cool, eh.
