Here's a few shots, yea Ive got some seedlings and clones. I really like the Grapeology and Ocean Grown Cookies. Still just light feeding, 2teas fox farm grow big, a lil silica blast, and liquid seaweed. They love it!!! I'm gonna top or pinch these later tonite I think. As it'll be time to pick 2-3 plants and put in probably 7gal grow bags is what im leaning towards, so 7gal will be the next transplant probably a wk after I top or so. Id really like to be on a 12/12 by July 1.
Well to the LED, she's running fine. The plants and seedlings seem to like the spectrum. But a oscillating fan is keeping everything cool. There a cool running light to not have fans. And even before Mars Hydros grow tent giveaway thread I was thinking this LED would be great in a tent. Ive never been able to use a tent because I run a larger setup 6x6 8x8. But a tent would be great for 2 large plants or just keep 3-5 mother plants. It's so easy to move around you have lots of options. Not having the air cooled ducting is a big plus. I'm not ready to take the 1000hps down yet, but when I get the power bill it's probably gonna be a huge difference.

plants look great wvkindbud. that led works well does it put out much heat
Thanks guys, no I don't think the heat bad from it. A oscillating fan should keep it cooled down, I've been using one and it's doing ok.
I wanted to grow strains I haven't grew before under this LED. I could've easily put a RG4 or something I know will produce a large plant under it. But with these strains im not fimilar with may take pinching better than topping. Things you know from strains you've already grew
Well I pinched then, also sprayed them with Trifecta Crop control. I had a mite issue last grow and trying to stay on top of things. Here's a few pics, I feed them Fox Farm Grow, General floralicious, silica blast. Also removed a few lower branches. There's are ready for transplant!!! All the other stuff is some clones and seedlings. Gonna have to find somewere to put everything lol

Sorry about the sideways pics. The smaller 2plants with the 3rd small one is my Serious 6. And the 4 seedlings beside those are Karmas Tha melon, and Biker x Sherb ix. I had some germ problems with the Serious 6s 3/6
I gotta delete some stuff and I'll get some more pics up. I really like the Bellini, and Grapology. I really like how the Dos x Key Lime looks too. I may try to fit those 3 into flowering. I really gotta get these transplanted, I've already dragged them longer than I like to. These things are gonna explode fast when they hit the new smart pots!!!! at least i hope fingers crossed. I'm gonna have a bunch of great plants to put outdoors. But the Bellini, Grapology, and if room Dos x KL is what im looking at flowering. And hopefully I get more Promix in the next few days so I can get tranplanting, and soon flowering. Ive used 2 bales of Promix, 2 4cu ft bags of Perlite, and 2 bags of Ocean Forest lol. That's mot counting the off brand soil from the hardware store. Most is for my outdoor containers. I'll get some stuff deleted and get some pics!!!
Well I managed to have enough soil to mix up to 7gal grow bags. These are the Grow bags from ecogardener.com. There a nice thick study bag. But I got Cannarado Genetics Grapology, and Cali Connection Bellini transplanted. I'm gonna be getting some of the others planted outdoors, and few others under for cloning projects

The Grapeology is on the left in 7gal ecogardener..Heres a few other pics, I don't really know if a 3rd plant would crowd things up, it's gonna be the Dos x Key Lime as the 3rd plant. I need get to store for Promix, I used alot more Ocean Forest in the Grapeology, it'll definitely help, I was outta Promix to dilute it. I'll be flipping these to 12/12 here very soon. They all seem good from the fim,
Before transplanting I fed everything pretty much the same as Ive been doing. I went and calibrated my ph meter. I'm gonna do some measurements to see about this 3rd plant. Id really like to get Philosopher plants in my thread. Once I put the front on its pretty tight.

This single light would he great for a tent. However you grow, like me, hydro table, scrog, trellis, I definitely like this SP 250, were gonna see how they do in flowering. Its definitely been a superb light for seedlings, and vegging. We'll be switching to 12/12 anyday!!! I'm excited, can't wait to see them flower.
Well I swear I'm still in my right mind. But in my older age, I've not topped or pinched these plants lol, There's not alot of viewers when that goes unnoticed lol. I must not have pinched them enough, I was fim/pinching them and didn't trim the top enough. I can't believe I didn't notice that, ggggsss my mind lol. Ive been working my butt off outdoors and must have over looked it. I'll probably just SC them, I don't think they'll get to outta control. Maybe some tying and things. Depending on which area I flower in i may not have a height restriction, so I might try to keep them in the room wirh higher ceilings. Can't believe I did this lol, it's a rush trying to get everything else Ive got outside in the next few days!!!
