I've been growing for a year now and still learn alot each round.
Well... yes that is true however, in my situation I have a check list of projects that I need to complete before starting my new project - build partition wall, paint 3 rooms, complete sodding of lawn, paint side of house, clean/organize the rest of the basement and a few others. And in all fairness, these items need to be completed. I'm 2/3rds through my list so perhaps a week or two off schedule... I'll get there.
alright, alright....I got some pics!!! :D I will try and be better about the updates! Now that the babies are in flower, things are going to get good. I'm posting pics from 2 days ago and then a few from tonight. you can see a difference. I'm about 10 days into flower and it's amazing how many pistils there are! My camera isn't that great, but I tried to get some good shots for ya! Let me know what you think so far....:jointsmile:
Pic 1 - side view of one of the shuga's
Pic 2 - top view of some shuga's and blue dreams

And here's a few from tonight....:jointsmile:
Pic 1 - Lights on!
Pic 2 - Shuga
Pic 3 - Blue Dream...
Pic 4 - Blue Dream....
Pic 5 - Blue Dream.....it's why I always grow it...it's a dream! :jointsmile:
looking good how long they got left?
thanks....they are only 1 1/2 weeks into flowering....so I have about 6 1/2 to 8 1/2 weeks left.....some are indica and some are sativa. :jointsmile:
the only thing with growing different strains is they take different strengths of feed...you have a little nute burn on the shuga...looking good otherwise :thumbsup:
So I have to dial in the nutes for each strain? Good to know. I learn something every time I come on here.
Moody, they look like they're stretching a little? It's common complain with LED so I'm perhaps seeing something that is not there or is a result of the pictures. How far off the plants are the lights?
the lights are about 10-12" about the plants (some are taller than others). The shuga's and blue dreams are pretty compact and bushy....but the kushes are growing like I've never seen before. They might look like they are stretching in the pics...they just created alot more branches than the others. I had to cut them down 2 weeks into vegging because they were so much taller than the others. they are clearly the leader of the pack right now! :jointsmile:

Pic 1 - lights on

Yep, same place! So far I'm very happy with them! Stay tuned....the babies are growing lots every day....I'll add some pics in a day or two :jointsmile:Quote:

Also, there are no added nutes, so you have to be very careful that things are as they should be. It's not as forgiving as soil. But I'm still happy with it. It's a good learning experience for me! :thumbsup:
i got the direct connect with manufacturer...skype or yahoo me :thumbsup:Quote:

lol...hey no problem iv been really likeing this thread everyone likes something new right and LEDS have had alot of bad rap so just like to see the new tecnology doing what it says it can cant wait for the pics:thumbsup:
Here's a few more pics....tomorrow I will be at the 4 week mark for flowering. The shugas should be ready in another 4 weeks....the blue dreams and kush will probably go about another 6 weeks....
I ordered a ph pen since it seems I've been having trouble getting it exact with the drops. Coco has no added nutrients so its not as forgiving as soil if everything is not perfect. This way my ph will be perfect every time! :thumbsup:

You're doing good for your first run...the ph pen is going to help you get things dialed in just right :thumbsup:
yea those look real nice and frosty:jointsmile:
Those are looking nice. Can't wait to see this grow play out!
Yeah. Good shit, man. Any tips from what you learned so far?
Peace

Great show by the way.

hey all...thanks for the kind words! I'll try to get some pics up tonight! :jointsmile:
Stra8outtaweed is my LED guy....he can take care of you! :thumbsup:
Yeah yeah we want pictures!
here's some new pics just taken tonight! I got my ph pen last week and have been making sure everything that goes into my babies is exactly as it should be! :jointsmile:
I hit the 5 week mark yesterday from when i started flowering. The shugas are looking mighty tasty already and I'm thinking they will be ready around the 8 week mark....they are a heavy indica. The kushes are long and not filling out the way i would like, but I figure i have about another 5 weeks, so I'm hoping they will come through! The blue dreams....again....just a dream! :thumbsup: I have about another 5 weeks to go for those as well....stay tuned!

looking real nice keep them pics coming:thumbsup:
It's been about 10 days since my last update! I've got about a week left on the shugas' and about 3 weeks left on the kushes and blue dreams. I've seen a major turn around since using a ph pen! It really does make a huge difference. Most of all the yellowing leaves have fallen off and it's now all green! :jointsmile:
Here's the shugas....
