'bout yer rep msg.
I think that's a great idea:thumbsup:.
Drop me a note at "Calling out to Weezard for led advice".
Be happy to he'p.:)
Weeze -out
Will do.

Thanks all for stoppin in...less than a week and the show will resume...i have my crop finishing early next week and a new show will begin and 1 will be at around 28 days i do believe....and a new camera for better pictures:jointsmile:
:smokin::smokin::smokin:
here is something i thought i would share...just got email from my mfr of my lights and i think it was Headshake who mentioned something about 5w LEDs
Currently all 5W leds are made by multiple chips, not single chip. As soon as single chip 5W leds are available, we will use them as well.
that is where it is from the manufacturing side so 3w LED is as big as they go right now:thumbsup:
They might not be able to get the single-chip 5W emitters at a reasonable price for the quantity you're moving. Alibaba and Aliexpress have tons (most are white LEDs but there are some horticulturally-suitable diodes to be found.)
That's the issue I'm having acquiring 3w diodes, especially with my emission pattern. I'm not moving enough volume to do more than get enough for prototyping at my current budget.
yeah..if you can make it that's one thing...next is making them affordble enough to have a market....when it happens though they will do it and i am looking forward to it.:jointsmile:
PPPLLLLEEEASSSEEEE CCCOMMMEEEE HHOOMMEEEE! I'm waiting for pics Str8, Can't wait to see the end results of your setup so I know you must be drrooollingg right now:D
dude you got me...i am missing them bigtime and being able to show whats going on.....thanks alot you bro...i am almost counting the hours now...i have 1 more injection on next tuesday and then i fly home on thursday...due to the international dateline i take off 11am in Beijing and get home at 9am the same day so i will land before i left :wtf:
on the good note i have new feeling in my left foot from all of the injections so far and some improvements in standing :thumbsup:
hey 'man from future' can't wait to see how your babies have been doing since you've been in china! I'll be in week one when you get home...so excited to get this going! :jointsmile:Quote:

I am going to keep an eye on this next grow of yours.
I take it you will be posting progress on this thread.
I still have not made my mind up about LED's.
You get some serious results. The pictures on this thread so far are very impressive. :thumbsup:
moody~thanks:smokin:
demoreal~yes...the show will go on:jointsmile:
i am going to try some new nutrients that have gotten some rave reviews from some of my growing friends the House and Garden Van de Swaan line..so i will be doing as test run and have a batch of babies that have been vegging since i left for China and when i get home they will be put in the tray that is being harvested by my baby sitter...so i will have a drying cab full of buds waiting for me to arrive :D
and a new camera to boot...so picture quality shall be greatly improved! :thumbsup:
i think i fried my old one with taking pictures of these LED lights~doh!:wtf:
Lookin forward to seeing those ladies. Gotta be getting frosty by now. Man, you even got someone to harvest for ya, thats where its at, lol. Hope them stem cells are doing it for ya, don't see why the states wont take off their asshats and realize it helps, so why not.
-C
yeah...i got one of my buddies to take care of the harvest as it would be an overload for me to get back home and have that much work to do...there s still going to be a fair amount of work anyways with moving the 16 plants that have vegged fot the 4 weeks i have been gone...thye will neee to have the bottoms claened and i will take cuttings from them so it will be wlecome back and get to work....i can't wait ti try the new camera for some bud porn :stoned:
Just don't point it directly at those lights this time! lol
nope...got the old one for that :DQuote:

Looks awesome....so how was the harvest compared to your 1000w setup? less ? more?
* given that your still looking to tweak the results
was this the first run with LEDs also?
stra8 cant wait to see tha bud porn :jointsmile:
no i have finished 3 complete runs and i am learning from each one....by tweeking i am going to try straight coco as Weezard has highly recommended it as he has very nice LED grows and learning that you don't need to water as much...so a learning process but my yields have been very close to what i had with 1000w HPS...the only grow that i have not surpassed was the ones i did with both HPS/LED when i first used them as supplemental lights but i noticed how the plants leaned to the LED's and not the HPS even though i had new bulbs in.....so i took the leap of faith and jumped....and there is no going back in my mind it is the best decision i have made :thumbsup:
me neither..hahaQuote:

i should have quoted good herb as my last comment was answering his post.:jointsmile:
ah well soon then lol :stoned:
I was wondering if you started using co2?
I am curious how extra co2 works with the LED's.
Does the room get hot enough so the plants start working harder, drinking more and growing faster?
Has the co2 helped? You changed strains so i guess you won't really know. I always change strains too. I would love to focus on one strain but I get board.
After researching LED's I learned it would be really easy to build one. You might want to look into that.
Nice Work!!!:thumbsup:
i did add a CO2 generator before i left for China but it was in long enough for me to get things somewhat dialed in but i have it running on a timer..i have a controller/monitor wating at the house for me to install and i know that will help keep the CO2 at optimum levels...so i will get to see where my 2nd tray is as it was just in the first few day of flower before i left. So I will see tomorrow when i get home and i will be snappin some bud porn fo sho!!! I love OG SFV and that is what I primarily grow it is such a kick ass strain that it is hard to not grow it. I have a few other quality strains i keep going also.Quote:

So i like mine as they are ready to plug in and run out of the box for that cost so i think i did good in finding these:smokin:
So you can compare this OG harvest to the last I take it?
That would be very interesting.
If you can lead me in the direction of where to get those 3$ a watt LED I would love to design and build one. That is the kind of stuff I do in school so I might as well do something useful instead of a bunch of old school physics labs. Those are cool too just not very practical to me.
It would be fun to design one especially picking out all the right spectrum diodes.
Dreaded Hermie is the one who said what the materials cost for building one...you might contact him or Weezard to point you in the direction for parts...i just get mine from the manufacturer...i guess i'm lazy...haha!
As far as comparing...i'll have to wait to give you that answer when i get home...about 25 hours and i will be in the good ol USA and i can't wait to get some American food..haha! and tokin on some of that fine LED grown OG waiting in my car in SF for me....then i want some American food!:jointsmile:
haha yeah i bet a nice big juicy burger haha even though its not good for you it will be good prob the best one you have had in a while lol your not bringing any chinese chicks home to make house wifes out of are ya haha :thumbsup::jointsmile::smokin:Quote:

I look forward to seeing your new camera in action.
:)
there were places like that and i did not want to even get out of the car...traffic is crazy...cars drive on the sidewalks through and around pedestrians like its no big deal...its a wonder that people don't get run over but cars and people weave each other in constant flux of motion!Quote:

Lol yeah thats why they are only allowed to have one kid its sad when the gov tells you how many kids you.Quote:

made it and arrived to a forest...ahh! i got some major trimming to do on these trees...i was stoned and freaked at same time! i gotta get some pics to show how big 3 1/2 weeks of growth form an 8" clone at transplant!:stoned:Quote:
