LED GROW SHOW

[biggtone]

i just let the room go dark for 2 cycles basically...this stops any photosynthesis and need for nitrogen in the plant in the final moments of its life and giving your end product a smoother flavor...the buds also swell a bit more in the darkness :jointsmile:

i never noticed any harm to the plants in the other tray by giving them the extra dark period.

thanks.....next pics will be the hanging :D

Interested in your leds, email is [email protected] Thanks.Trying to do this the right way, sorry if I broke any rules, Unfortunately not very computer savvy.

[stra8outtaWeed]

pulled everything out of the tray and cleaned all the lines with bleach

heres some shots of the tray empty and progress of the other girls :D

[stra8outtaWeed]

heres the girls waiting to be chopped and hung :jointsmile:

Hey str8...looking good, but one thing I noticed...you really should get thet GFCI away from the 'T' on your drip line. If the line leaks or blows...you might have a BIG issue.

Having kept many coral and fish tanks, I do know that the GFCI's are useless against water, and the warranty does not cover against water damage shorting them out and causing fires. There might be some high-dollar units for marine applications, but those from WalMart or the Dollar Store are useless against moisture.

Seriously...don't catch your house on fire. Mom might get a little pissed. ;)

i just use that strip for running the pumps to water and the vacuum cleaner when doing "house cleaning"...but i do agree it needs to be changed and moved to a safer place....thanks for pointing that out...i need to get a power strip with a longer cord so i can put it in the middle out of harms way...appreciate your input...thanks :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I believe this little smiley guy has been used before, but never to this extent.

:jawdropper:

Wow, those are incredible. Looks like some awesome smoke. You gonna start a new log or just keep on keepin on?

[khyberkitsune]

I'd take just ONE of those sticks, roll a *FAT* blunt with it all, and smoke it.

[moody420]

I believe ClassC said it best.....:jawdropper:

Great job Str8:thumbsup:You sure know what the hell your doing, thats shows in your drying cab:jointsmile:. Really like your set up man. I know you have heard this, but just had to throw that out again, cuz ya deserve it:thumbsup:

Looking forwad to your next go-round and as always Keep er Green

:rasta:

[stra8outtaWeed]

thanks so much LSY..i appreciate all the good words from everyone :D

:smokin:

[demoreal]

Whats up! nice job. How did you like house and garden compared to AN? House and Garden nutes are really good. The lights penetrated quite far. I have been researching lights and the LED's you use are really good ones.
What strain are you growing next?
I want to see you grow an indica so bad and see how fat you can get it.
Any way. Nice job again.

[flyinhi]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! They look amazing!!!!

Kinda sad having to cut the girls down after tending to them for so long, but at same time a huge buzz knowing you're gonna get an awesome smoke for some time.

Looking forward to the next log :rastasmoke: and learning more :thumbsup: Thanks for sharing this grow :jointsmile:

i'm kinda stuck on this OG :D

i like the H&G program...its a much simpler to use than AN's formula and easier on the pocket although i do like AN's Bud Candy, Wet Betty, Voodoo Juice, and Jump Start....i still find that the OG needs Calmag also...i've been a little lazy and the camera is in the truck so i have not updated my logs lately :stoned:


thanks flyinhi :jointsmile:

:postgood::stupid:

No offense intended Demo:thumbsup:

[stra8outtaWeed]

hmmm......whats some suggestions for a GOOD indica....i could look in my seed stash..lol :smokin:

[ForgetClassC]

Why not try some G13?

Had some not tooo long ago, it was nice.

[jscruggs420]

I would go with God Bud, great 75% indica and 25% sativa, hardly stretches after putting into flowering, Thats what I'm going with in my 500 watt led grow. They are looking great right now and just about to go into flowering.

[stra8outtaWeed]

these are on week 7....going 9 :jointsmile:

liking the House & Garden formula :thumbsup:

this is going to be the last grow on this thread folks :hippy:

[Rusty Trichome]

Great job. Can almost smell 'em from here. :thumbsup:

here is day 56 last feeding of House & Garden program. :thumbsup:

i am going to chop this batch down next sunday :smokin:

[deserthealer]

wow! :dance:

[khyberkitsune]

People need to see the truth that LEDs are viable, and this entire thread is 100% proof.

This should be a featured thread IMHO.

Dude, you are an inspiration. Must... sheetrock... grow room...

[LetsSeeYa]

Great grow Str8 as you seem to put out on a pretty much consistent basis:thumbsup:. Looks like i never came back after page 8:wtf:. Iv been busy but my loss man. I still cant rep ya, but i owe ya that for sure. Il be here for next go-round for sure man. The cured buds look very sweet and would luv to taste that goodness:jointsmile:

Keep er green bro, or what ever the LED's do for you to create these great grows man :thumbsup:

thanks for stoppin in...i was checkin your thread out the other day and tired to rep you as well...i think your grow is amazing with your challenges...i know how hard things are with a T-12 injury so i can't imagine a C level injury.....thanks for the props again :jointsmile:

[stra8outtaWeed]

i got a few shots of the lights on today :smokin:

this crop shows how important an even canopy is...you can see the tallest plants are only getting 1 light and the shorter ones are getting light form more angles and the buds on the tallest are not as big as the shorter plants :jointsmile:

[ForgetClassC]

Man, I don't think I have too many more of these to my person, but you keep taking them all.

:jawdropper:

-C

[StickyBuds1987]

ah so one more day till harvest looking great what strains are ya gonna try out next

[stra8outtaWeed]

C~thanks bro...i'll spark one for ya! :jointsmile:

actually i forgot about fathers day so harvest is rescheduled for tuesday:beatdeadhorse:

i am going to do Sierra Kush, Silver Spur, Uno, and the rest will be my OG :D

the Sierra and Spur are both crosses from a White Widow male :smokin:
the Uno is a random bag seed which was the only seed in the bag hence its name "UNO" :cool:

[ForgetClassC]

Haha I believe you have grown this 'Uno' Strain before have you not? Or was that not the name of the wee little plant that you let grow on your floor.

The Sierra and Spur sound nice, and man do I wish I could pass it to ya. That stuff looks down right stanky.

Edit: Forgot to say, watch those LED pictures man, don't get the diodes too many times, don't wanna ruin your new camera.

-C

[stra8outtaWeed]

yeah...if you notice i tried not to shoot directly into the lights :jointsmile:

i've grown them all....i just thought i would put them in the tray on this next grow:D

[khyberkitsune]

He won't ruin his camera. No UV light to burn out the CCD or CMOS.

Lol tell that to this man's last camera.

[khyberkitsune]

Lol tell that to this man's last camera.

I'd be willing to bet it was so bright the camera firmware couldn't handle it. I've caused camera lockups by pointing it at extremely bright sources of light. I remedied that by getting a camera that doesn't give a crap, although the downside to that is picture quality is rather random without careful setup.

[stra8outtaWeed]

the old camera was an Olympus so it wasn't an el cheapo but with the improvements in electronics in the past years everything has gotten better and less expensive :jointsmile:

ok..back to things at hand...like sticky fingers..harvest time...so far i have taken down 10 plants and still have 6 to go :smokin:

[stra8outtaWeed]

a few more :smokin:

[Weezard]

stra8, your buds are amazing. Period. :cool:

[neceros]

Has the pricing settled since you started this? I'm still going through the 20 pages, but I'm finding some 12" panels for about $120 that say they replace a 250 HPS. You said you paid about 4500 for all your needs in lighting?

Have you changed the lights since feb?

Thanks!

[stra8outtaWeed]

CC- thanks bro :smokin:

its all family here :thumbsup:

neceros~ i can still get the lights @ 450.....i did change out the lights that were only 630nm reds and put the ones in like the others w/660nm deep red :jointsmile:

don't get hooked on looking at price when looking at LED's...look at the spectrums the light provides, strength of diode, the degree it emits light...660nm reds are the most expensive diodes...the amount of them will determine the price :D

[neceros]

Thanks for answering. I want to try some LEDs here soon!

[StickyBuds1987]

hey stra8 man this log alone makes me wanna start saving for a led setup like yours haha

[sittingone]

I know this is a dead thread, but since stra8 has not begun a new thread I am posting here:)
I emailed your gmail account with a couple questions. I am looking for your light distributor.
Also I was comfirming that you are running 6 lights with 2 trays of 16 plants each and harvesting each month.
Thanks for all your work to share your knowledge here!

I don't have skype, so not sure how to get in touch with you. I am a T-11/12 para myself and looking to start my LED adventure. I am looking at a 180w 3w 11 Wavelength light for $489, but would like to see about your kind of lights as it is more of a known quantity after seeing your grows. Good to see you are still around.

this would make two of us. can we get some more on info on the fixtures and who sells them. thanks, awesome work here.

I imagine that your savings on HVAC usage are noticeable? (not to mention energy in general, maintenance, and a possible panel / service upgrade)

these are $450~150watts 5 band w/50% 660nm diodes

i had to set up a commercial account and get enough to import them...so i got a bunch for friends and family and got a few extras to help out a few growers who are interested...if ya leave an email addy for me to contact you i can do that :jointsmile:

Hey str8 the girls look amazing! I am very interested in LED technology, and from what I've read and seen, you are the one to talk too. So, I sent a friend request so hopefully I can message you with my ideas, and find out how much $$$ to do it right.

[stra8outtaWeed]

go to your user page...i sent you my email :jointsmile:

hey stra8, was interested in your LED lights about, do you have some for sale?

you can contact me through AIM if needed.

also, how do the 3W's compare with the 1W in terms of efficiency?

[Firechicken]

Hey Str8 You have just inspired me to go full LED myself. I've been just watching and learning here for years, and am finally ready to get a very small garden growing. I'm only going to need about 2 plants in the Flower cycle at any given time max, so I think I might be able to pull off building my own LED controller ballast and a much much smaller setup to yours and have excellent results. I hope to get started shortly and get a grow log soon.

Anyways I just wanted to note for you in the future when looking for a Proxy, I'd highly recomend Privoxy and Torr. You can DL and install them very fast free and hastle free. For non techie's it's so simple and your instantly routed through hundreds and thousands of host computers acting as Proxy's for you. It's great. Some websites will not let you surf under a proxy, and they can be slow. But these are excellent products for free and if you need to do it in the future then give those 2 a shot.

Awsome grow mate!

Cheers.

[jdcha1]

What are the dimensions of those lights?

[jdcha1]

stra8, if one could only buy just ONE of those LED lights should that person get the full spectrum for veg through flower?

[DrWalter]

stra8, if one could only buy just ONE of those LED lights should that person get the full spectrum for veg through flower?
pretty sure each bar is full spectrum

[beef74]

great thread:thumbsup: I grew with leds(Prosource tri-bands-e-bay ufo's-45 watt(26 watts actually) "glow panels".All junk.Totally soured me on the whole led thing.But I have to say that there are quite a few grow journals, this one in particular, that have given me renewed interest.Awesome grow show.It's good to see someones hard work pay off.Peace:rasta:

[beachbum8391]

Hey i'm trying LED lights i have two 90w lights for eight plants any ideas

[Iceberg420]

Hey i'm trying LED lights i have two 90w lights for eight plants any ideas

i can only manage 1 plant under a ufo... good luck with 8 under 2 ufos lol

[beachbum8391]

yeah the plants are growing good but it looks like it would be better with three or four. You can only manage one under a ufo? what color lights are you using

[jordan471]

you are trashing leds when its the buyers fault in this case. You first of all need at leasst 2 watt diodes with less than a 120degree angles lense. your lights need more white balance full spectrum like 7000k and your reds need to be 630nm and 660nm(you have no 660) you also have too much blue for flowering stage. Im all for a thurough review and grow test but we gotta start with high quality informed lighting purchases

[breezer101]

I have built this awesome light track that is 4'x6', (7) tracks with 6 to 8, 10/12 watt LED bulbs per track. I also have (3) 12"x12" panels running along the 6' sides and (2) on one of the 4' sides. Each is panel 10 watts?

There are (32) fs/10 watt, (15) red/10 watt, (12) magenta/12 watt in just the over head light bracket alone. My first try I only had (5) tracks with (5) lamps each. Plants came out long and spindly. Took them outside to finish due to mites. Plants grew 52 inches in 3 months. Not a good idea to let them get that tall.

Now on 2nd try, have more lights and the side panels as listed above then was used before. 7 plants are from fem seed, 20 are clones. The seeds were planted 30 days before the clones were introduced to the grow area. The seed looks much more vigor, thicker stalk, fuller foliage then the clones. May be due to the seed plants has a tap root were as the clones do not. I hope that is not the case, will get back to this part at the end. I should note that they are not of the same strain either.

I let the clones grow to 4 weeks before flowering at a approximate height of 14", while the seed is about 24" at this time. Grow time was set to 18/6, light set at about 18" above the plants. Changed light time to 12/12 about (16) days ago. For the first 14 days lights remained at 18" and now are just 2"-3" above the plants.

So far the seed plants look thick, nodes right lenght and flowering. But the lower branches are very long and extend to almost the top of the plant height, I believe to get some light intensity. Flowering only at the tip of the branches, only one set of leaf and one node so buds will be tiny-tiny-tiny if any, fingernaill size when dried. Looks like only the main center cola will have any density, and will be small compared to sunlight or HID/HDS lighting.

Unless I hear about other suggestions, my next grow plan is to just line the center of the grow area with about 10 plants and just lattice them with the LED lights in every possible way just a couple inches away on all sides for the plants. Also will consider using auto-flowering seed to keep grow time to 60 days and see if this makes a difference?

Want to test if certain varieties grow better under LED's then all varieties. Also do seed work better then clones? I tend to use the clones I made from the seed plants under the LED's as opposed to clone from clone or a clone not originated from a LED lighting system. When I tried to grow clones from outdoor plants they fialed possibly due to lighting not nearly as intense as the sun. Also the clones I planted came from HID lighting, not LED. So maybeeee, anything not started under LED and transfered to LED lighting, will not be as full and lush as one originating from the LED settings?

I need to make this work, $2,000 on just lights, any ideas? Elect for lights is about $45 per month if that much compared to $800-$1,000 on the HID lights.

[khyberkitsune]

Hey, Stra8! If you're around, I'd like for you to test something for me!

Grab a Kill-a-Watt and go see how much your WRX-C150s are drawing on the actual wattage per hour. A Kill-A-Watt EZ will suffice, I'm not looking for super-accurate figures.

[stra8outtaWeed]

for all those interested....still usin 'em!!

@ Khyb- if i can find one i will but i have not tested them

@ gr8white- thanks! :smokin:

i'm gonna pick up a kill a watt from home depot and test my wex-c150. i will let you know the results...

[GP73LPC]

well as we all know every LED array is over rated by the manufacturer and the WEX-C150 is no different. i assumed it was under 150 watts. i was thinking maybe 138 or 140.


needless to say, this makes what stra8 did here and what these lights can really do obvious. :thumbsup:

the gpw just went way up sending this grow over 1 gram per watt ;)

they are using less power and because the 3 watt LEDs are not be overdriven that should prolong life...

[bigsby]

I see this thread hasn't had any activity in a while. Just thought this might interest you Wex-C150 owners out there. One of my bars died. It was ~18 months old. I took it apart and found that one of the transformers had shorted. So I email Welthink in China. I had a response from Welthink USA within 5 hours. After some back and forth they asked me to ship it to them in VA. Cost me $45 including insurance. Within a day of receiving the light they determined that not only had the transformer gone but it took a number of the LEDs with it. They sent me a spanking new light the next day! Total down time was about 10 days and that's because I dicked around with it for 2 days and shipped regular post which added 4 days. Great customer support. Nice to have a company stand behind their product, eh?!

Hey Strai8, long time. I did try to find you first... but your email seems to be dead.

My second light went down as well. It's going back this week. Suggests significant issues of quality control. I've read about this elsewhere. But at least they are doing the right thing. It would have sucked to have some no name company giving me the run around...

Yes they stand behind there product...i have only had 2 returned so I am sorry to hear that both your units went bad...but on the good side you got 2 new lights :thumbsup:

I got your skype message and replied but never heard back from you...is your email the same on yahoo?

I haven't gotten the second one yet... just sent it in. Will let you know. I'll look for you on Skype again. Traveling, etc. Peace!
