VerdantGreen's 104 watt micro grow with custom HG LED (ScrOG)
- Thread starter VerdantGreen
- Start date
pagona - thanks for stopping by and welcom to IC !
unthing - lol its going to be cherry x everything. the cherryjuana is the cross i really wanted to make, but the CB is also a great candidate to make seeds with the elites. apparently the males are 'pre-potent' so dont need progeny testing and being an ibl should be fairly stable - with CB traits easy to spot in the progeny.

wow wow man she is looking super dooper great.
Heya VG, I just dipped my toes in the LED lake.
I am vegging only with 2 procyon 50's as a 400w MH replacement. The lights come as a kit that takes about 20 minutes to assemble. What is really neat about these is that they only use a few LED's, and they are smaller than any I have seen in grow lights. 4 bucks a watt...
Each unit uses:
18 Red Cree XP-E Xlamp LEDs
6 Royal Blue Cree XP-E Xlamp LEDs

thanks cheesebuds!
mad - i guess you have 2w led's in your unit. i like LED's for veg but find mine has to be some distance away from the plants for best results - 10" or so
took a look today - it looks like the pollen has taken on the chem D so there should be a few seeds on their way

Looking really good Verdant, it is quite amazing to me that a mere 100 watts actual draw is able to produce such a substantial plant.
not sure what the watts are. they are 80% smaller than the previous generation, and so freaking bright that I keep them about a foot away.
hey thanks carforce - thats two plants under there ! 50watts on each. 
mad - that sounds sensible. vegging plants dont seem happy under my leds when they are close.

chem d at 33 days - coming on nicely. yellowing slightly so i gave it a feed of biobiz bloom.
and the heri at 5 weeks looks nice too

Hey I had a couple thoughts about your chem d. I had a similar looking plant. I thought the same thing mosaic. I flowered it and then reveged it. At the same time I was changing nutes and medium I used, and the symptoms went away. So I was thinking that maybe that chemD is looking for some missing nutes or your not in a high enough potency. It is called chem... heh Also I thought it might just be a genetic mutant do to the breeding process. Still looks pretty good to me. I got some chemdawg from a med center in colo. That shit is waaay to stinky for me to grow micro. If I just opened the jar of mugs I had it made my entire house fill up with the smell of manure!
looking good, i always though leds were a gimmick or some joke but it looks like they are doing wonders in your box.
you got any side shots of your plants?

wow dude. they r looking super dooper.
hey itgrows, the chem D is pretty famous for having that variegation thing going on - although not all cuts have it afaik. the plant is real healthy and im not worried about it. i started a thread in the botany forum and many poeple thing its a mutation/sport rather than TMV.
stihgnobevoli - yeah im really pleased with how this LED is working out - ive used them a few times before and they work great if you buy a good one - but they wont perform miracles like some expect them to do.

the chem D is putting on some great weight, pics on thursday...

hi all, some photos
heri at 6 weeks, this is starting to look ripe. nugs arent that big but look nice and dense, maybe they will swell some more in the next couple of weeks.
side
the chem d is looking rather good at 37 days.

hey g0v yeah the chem is putting out lots of pistils, and starting to pong too.
i seeded a whole little branch on the heri with the Cherry Bomb pollen. its probably taken the plant quite a bit of energy to make all those seeds. heri is not thought to be much of a yielder. it'll be interesting to see how the smoke comapres to the last heri i grew.

The Herijuana looks killer. Love Motarebel.
Nice work as always, VG.
Nice work as always, VG.
lets hope so g0v!
Sgt.Stedenko - thanks, yeah this is the second heri ive grown, i liked the first very much
Darkgan- im very pleased with the third gen spectrum - although i think in the end they used white rather than pure green as the white led's are more efficient. the biggest difference is the flowering response. i reckon plants will flower faster in here then under an HPS. the haze was quicker than i expected and this heri looks ready at 7-8 weeks!. i'll need to leave it another week just for the cherryjuana seeds to develop properly but if it wasnt for them i would probasbly take it tomorrow. i guess it has a lot more far red which drives flowering hormones....

chem D looks like a heady heady plant..
your work as always is inspiring. your scrogs are what i consider the bench mark for perfection. sadly this last one got away from me...... one day.... ill get there.
