And, you are right, cool white does have more blue.
2700K is Warm white.
The numbers are degrees Kelvin.
Higher numbers are hotter.
Not about actual heat, more about the colors emitted as thing get hotter.
Read more, buy less.:D
You asked about odor in veg.
Short, funny answer?
If you're lucky!:D
Useful answer?
There are variables.
Strain is the biggie, followed by temperature.
Best to plan on dealing with odor from the beggining.
Ass covering is always a good plan.
They get busted...:(
A side note.
Duct tape is a PIA!
You are going to find that it will lose it's sticky when it gets hot.
With 132Watts of flouescents, it will get hot!
Just tryin' ta he'p, brah.:twocents:
Good luck.
Weezard
the duct tape is on the out side mostly and the inside it isnt holding the lights in or any thing i used silicon to hold them into the Rubbermaid. Guess im just stupid about the light thing assumed soft meant cool oh well ill just supplement my flower cab with them now no biggie. is there a small scale cheap way of dealing with smell do the small home ionizer things work to kill this smell if i put it in the closet with the tub? have one that's why i ask. thx for the help i do read about most every thing before i do, i guess i just remembered wrong while i was standing at the home depot stoned...:stoned:
thx again
not sure about home ionizer. but the led ufo is awsome i love it from start to fin in 12wks
Finally some Flowers They are going pretty well have some good looking bud sites one seems to have a lot more then the other. the GF named them both yesterday. The one further a long that i also think might be a herm is named "Henrietta" and the other one is "Gladis". Henrietta has lots of bud sites and undergrowth Gladis everything is still growing at her main stem. oh and a side note Henrietta as Topped Gladis was not.( will be doing it from now on). I got my seeds in From Attitude Great and fast. Green House Sativa Indica Mix C thats what i bought. Started Germing 1-SSH 1- Big bang 1- Lemon Skunk and 1_Diesel (Free seed G13 is Fem too). As of this morning all but the SSH have popped and i will be putting into some medium here shortly. Guess thats all for now here is your pics

* Church
* Arjan's Strawberry Haze
* Lemon Skunk
*Great White Shark
* Hawaiian Snow
glad to hear that attitude treated you good.
keep up the good work.

the two ladies are looking great imo let me know what you think its about day 25 ish of flower. starting to get some nice crystals and Gladis (the one that hasn't branched) is getting a nice skunky smell. My 4 newbies are all sprouted and appear to be doing well minus a little stretch. had to back down my lights in the grow tub was just too hot. it runs about 86-89 right now with the lights on plants don't seem to mind other than needing water all the time. Found it interesting that All the green house seeds have reddish colored stems. and the one G13 diesel has a green one. Guess thats it took a ton of pics hope you enjoy the bud porn. Oh and i picked up some GDP for the holiday (4/20) its fuckin bomb. maybe ill take some pics and post later.

You can see them larger in my album. Also this time there are more in there left them off here cuz they are not best quality. Peace Hope you all have a Great 4/20
Peace
This is what i got to smoke on for 4/20 some Grand daddy purps not sure why the photo has a pink hue to it the stuff has lots of dark purple and all kinds of crystals. The high is very heady and up which i guess is weird for a purple strain maybe just picked early. lacks a little in taste has a decent smell but the taste is very mellow to non existent at times.
http://boards.cannabis.com/members/q...re1762-gdp.jpg
in my space case if your wondering what its sitting in.
happy 420, your grow looks pretty amazing thus far. keep up the good work and thanks for the info about attitude.
Glad some one is watching at least. i have had my eyes on your log for quite a while too It looks great glad to see them in flower now. Fungus Gnats have been back for a while forgot to mention that. been trying to get rid of them best i can Trying Mosquito dunks in water + sand on top of soil now they have been dwindling since i have been using the dunks so hopefully the sand i put on this morning will do them in. need to have them gone before end of may so when i put the good strains i got from attitude in the cab. They don't spread to them as well.
Peace cant wait till 50 so i can finally attach.
well hurry up and get 50 already.
you are doing a fine job. just because people don't comment deosn't mean they aren't following along.
-shake
I know you guys "lurk" a lot and i know your watching shake. I know weezard, hermi and a few others just get sad when i see my post drop to the bottom like rock all the time. and damn 50 posts is a lot you people who are in the thousands are nuts. ;)
Peace.
I am watching closely. Considering buying a cheap UFO after looking at this grow. Wont add much to power bill, and no heat!
can you post a link to which one you bought?
yeah they really dont use any power its pretty amazing i didnt really see any kind of increase in my electric at all with that + the canfan almost nothing lets put it this way i added it in begin of mar and with the weather changing between feb and mar my bill actually went down. here is the link to the one i gotNew 90W LED UFO Hydroponic Lamp Grow Light Free Post - eBay (item 220355104862 end time May-03-09 07:51:34 PDT) but if i could suggest i would find one of the tri band ones now its about 30 bucks more but from what i understand worth it. also my has been supplemented with about 68w of 2700k floro just so ya know. Good luck so far with this first grow im liking the led, we will see in the end though i guess. oh and the stretch problem every one talks about confuses me because i put 6 under it for veg and seriously i was getting worried cuz they wouldnt grow up just out. they were all so short. only about 2-3 inches before the first inter node even now. and all the the ones inbetween seem pretty close together to me. almost touching on the top two too three. well i have rambled on stoned long enough:stoned:
peace. might hit that 50soon after all.
Peace
Lookin good quarter! I PERSONALLY know that the Church does well under LEDs... Seems like you are getting this shit down! Good on ya man...Im lurkin:greenthumb:.....:rasta:
good vibes
just takin a stab here maybe im an idiot whiskey tango and snsstealth same person? I thought about getting some church after seeing your log(if you are stealth) but liked the combo that i got from green house better than the one that came with church so we shall see how these strains do...
on another note i got really tired of watching my veg tub reach 90 degrees so i invested in another UFO for veg all blue. and ill be making my veg tub twice as tall you cfl users must have some serious vent on your tubs to get them down to a decent temp because with 4 lights 2 cpu fans and some passive intake it would sit between 86-90 and im not ok with that. so UFO is comin in the mail should be here by monday and the veg tub gets a huge upgrade :thumbsup:
BTW for veg do you think i need any thing at all besides the blue? yes all 90 of its 1w led are blue 470 or something i think.
Peace.
First ill show you the tub. So after much revamping the Tub is done twice as big with lots more power and runs absolutely no hotter then what ever environment its in heat is no longer any problem. It has an all blue ufo for light 1 cpu fan pulling out threw a basic web carbon filter. passive intake. The girls are loving it. they have stopped stretching immediately so im very happy with the purchase whole tub now i guess would cost some one about 300-350 to make might be a good closet grow if you went with a tri-band just saying lots of light in a pretty small space for it. and the no heat is a bonus all of it is vented out side the tub. here are the pics. :thumbsup:
oh and wooo hoooo 50 posts:smokin: i can attach
Girls look fantastic. Not much else to say being fed with FF big bloom, tiger bloom, and beasty bloomz so here is your bud pron. also battle almost won against fungus gnats use mosquito dunk water every time i water (just leave the dunk in your watering can fill with water to de-chlorinate after you water and let set with dunk in it till next time you water/feed ) + added sand to top of soil. worked like a charm.
peace
Looking good!
How long have they been flowering?
Merry
about 31 days or so:stoned:
hate to do this but check out the mosquito dunk thing can be very helpful when dealing with fungus gnats. been a fun night(a lot to drink) and i guess an update can be done. they are getting big an frosty surprised from bag seed but its my first grow so maybe its normal. Henrietta has a very fruity smell while Gladis is quite skunky smelling. i guess different pheno's even though they came from same bag. any way.
Peace:stoned:
Ok first off the veg tub is going very well the girls got their first dose of nutes. they are off and growing quite fast now amazing how different each of them are looking and growing. The new one in the tub is one of the free thai super skunk it will be going into the flower room here very shortly. need to find out if its female and just wanna see if its any good since i cant seem to find any one around who has grown it to completion.
pics of the tub.
peace
Flower ladies lookin good about day 36ish of flower. plenty of time to grow still pretty interesting to see the difference between a topped plant and one left to grow. Not much else to say enjoy the pics.
peace.
they look so f'n good, i want to eat them.
i am jealous of the quality of seeds you have........
really amazing job so far and im looking forward to the end of this grow.
So decided to transplant the newbies today not really sure why didnt think they would need it quite yet. But i was wrong all of them were at the bottom a little curled up so i would say it was perfect timing. well all but 1 the Big bang did not have near the root growth yet.
albatrossSKY not sure if you were referring to the ones in flower or the ones coming up. Coming up yea very excited about that gene pool also suposed to have some more good beans coming from a stork. original blueberry(fem) and some hermied seeds off of purple kush :) so could be some fun was thinking of crossing lemon skunk and blueberry to make "lemon berry skunk" what do you think? And if you are referring to the ones now flowering i have been very impressed with the seeds so far very good quality buds so dense and good smelling.
on a side note probably gunna hermi a branch of lemon skunk to make some fem seeds. with colodial silver
well thats it for now
peace
They are starting to look really nice, just wait till they REALLY fatten up the last couple weeks!
That would be dank if you can get the cross to stabilize as not any two strains can cross and do ok all the time! Would be interesting though, after my blueberry get done I will be starting some skunkberry minus the lemony part :DQuote:
was thinking of crossing lemon skunk and blueberry to make "lemon berry skunk" what do you think?
looking good $.25! the lemon berry skunk would be retarted. i'd test some beans for ya!
-shake
Thanks for the reply's once i get some fem lemon skunk seeds i might be willing to share some to a few good people here. Also would take a some for my collection;) in trade. but that is still a little ways off in the making assuming it works out as well. so hit me up when you see that go down. then once i have fem lemon skunk and some fem blueberry i make then i will work on the crossing aspect of the two. but i also wanna try all of the rest of these strains i got from green house probably just getting way a head of my self but i definitely wanna make fem seeds of the lemon skunk.
well any way peace.:thumbsup:
Looking good. I'm following along, just little time to post this month. Keep it up. :thumbsup:
Headshake, LMAO at "retarted." (Like lemon tart, ya?) Peace, homes. Hermie
quarteroy, this is an inspirational log. Of course I followed the SnS team with the Procyon, but with it being so expensive I never contemplated an LED possibility for me. However, with a $175 tri-spectrum UFO LED, I could eliminate a lot of extra costs which would be needed to vent an HID bulb.
I'm really looking forward to the rest of your grow - your plants are outstanding! Great grow!
hermie, it's a tart that you bake inside a tart, hence the retarted! ok, ok, i'm lying my ass off. i was more than likely stoned and trying to type too fast. and now, i'm obviously the retarded one!
what's the word quarter?
-shake
So here is the update. Every thing looks good but living in AZ sucks. the cab is outside and un-air conditioned in a storage room. so i have an idea though hope it works to cool it down. It isn't hot in there while the lights are on. only at about 3-5:30 while light are off when it gets hot out it hit about 94 yesterday and the plants went threw about 1.5 gallons of water in 1 day. The leaves also started curling down a little. so i have a dryer vent right next to it so i might pull it out of the dryer re route it so i can still do my cloths and make a passive intake to inside the house to pull the cool air. will be doing that later today. They look good hopefully it doesn't wind up too fluffy. Didn't take pics of the youngins but they all look great.
any way here is your bud pron.
peace
Aloha QR
Looks like the sand made the gnats disband.
Sweet stable, brah!
They look almost ready for the prom.
Dirty ol' Weeze.;)
Wish the gnats were gone. i continue with all the treatments keep the sand up and they are still there not as bad... they are "managed" i guess. After putting in the intake to the indoors it looks like the room is running about 8 degrees cooler. its the hot part of the day and its only 85 in the cab right now needless to say i am very happy with the new ducting addition. guess thats it
peace.
quarteroy, those buds are lookin' awesome! Is there some doubt they will tighten up due to the LED? They look pretty dense from the pics. How far along are your LS and SSH? They look like they're maybe a week or so ahead of mine? If not, so far they are probably a good 2" taller than mine - but, that is comparing my present day plants to yours back on May 1st.
Sorry to hear your gnats are still around - I haven't ever grown inside, but have seen those dang fungus gnats before. I flippin' can't stand 'em! Good luck puttin' 'em in their graves! And, continued good luck on your grow, my friend!
been lurking with nothing to add. nice log though, Bub. :thumbsup:
its not the light that i worry about for the tightening i hear when temps reach over 90 bud's start to get fluffy(and so far they are very tight and compact). lemon skunk was started like april 18th or so i guess quite a bit ahead of yours. ill post pics of the youngins here in a few days any one think i should continue this one or start a new one for the new plants? whats the correct proto call for logging a sog?
(good to see you watching shovel i watch yours too)
peace.
Maybe put a sticky strip up for the gnats. Awesome grow, I like the UFO and the price is reasonable... hmmmm
+1 on the sticky strips. Coupla bux at the LoweDepot.
