Those LED Lights look pretty sweet, pricey though. Do you think you will have bleaching issues with the 3w leds and the short cab space? Whats the heat like for the light? I love the length, width, and height of the LED lights. Nice and compact, real nice for micro grows.
c99 is always a favorite.

I wouldn't worry about it. Grape Krush carries some funky genes. I think that's what you are seeing on that one plant.

Nice to hear from ya blynx. Hopefully thats what it is. A couple of these are growing beastly.

Funky Genes is right. Its ok though, I like a little funk in my skunk. C99-A(left) has less of this so far than C99-B(center), C99-C(right) does not display any of this yet.
A came up maybe 12 hours before B, and C came up the next day.
All plants have purple under their first set of single blade leaves but not under the more bladed leaves.
@Bobbles
Thanks for the comments on the lights. Their isn't much on them out their(that i could find). But this thing is bright... I wear sun glasses when I open the cab.
The unit came with a LED GROW LIGHT GUIDE for their diamond series.
They suggest only using the veg section of the light during the first week to allow the plant to adjust to the light before switching both sets on.(I did not do this)
Light distances
Seedling clones - at least 30" (I did not do this)
Flower and Vegging - 20-24 for plants that have been adjusted to high intensity light(Those are my cab specs to I didn't do that either lol)
"*Caution* These lights are not your typical LED grow lights. Do not allow plants to grow within 12" from the LEDs or they may become bleached from excess light. Never look directly into the light or LEDs without protective eye-wear!" That is directly quoted from the guide.
I find all of this issue with light distance interesting. Unless it is a lack of ability for the plant to cope with heat? I mean they grow under the sun. Am I supposed to believe this 100 w unit is more powerful than sunlight? I did not bring these questions to anyone until now.
I did talk to them about this around a year ago when I first bought the unit. Kyle the sales manager was who I was able to talk to and he was very helpful.
Thanks Bobbles.

looking very nice mate,have something very similar on the go your just a few weeks ahead of me.
hope everything goes aswell for me
im using a 150w ,7 spectrum led ufo with 3w leds, manufacturer claims it pulls around 100w which im still pretty happy with. its a bright bugger
are you worried about bleaching?
are you planning on training them at all? what size pots are you planning to transfer too?

I'm loving it
but whats up with all the nails and debris? your plants deserve better the that.. haha
keep it going, if I heard correct, a GK mix, that's cool
100 watt is not to much to worry about on distance.. I'm sure you could get them within 6 inches.. I run my LED's about 8 inches above.

What up dude, nice grow! I am using a LED light too (Blackstar 135w).
What is the humidity in your grow room? I have seen that leaf curling thing going on before. It usually happens when it is warm and low humidity. Raise the humidity level and the plant will have an easier time handling temps between 80-85F.
Just up your ventilation during flower and you should be golden!
