LED growing- An instructional grow log

[physicsnole]

This is probably because of the stimulation of the meridian system of the plant at the range it is most “vocal” in, 100 hertz, which causes the plants to increase their output at that frequency threefold

Found that here:

Also found this:
The perceived pitch of a person's voice is determined by a number of different factors, not least of which is the fundamental frequency of the sound generated by the larynx. A person's natural fundamental frequency is influenced by many factors, including the length, size, and tension of the vocal folds. In an adult male, this frequency averages about 125 Hz, adult females around 210 Hz, in children the frequency is over 300 Hz.

from: Vocal folds - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So maybe this explains why Bob Marley works well for you SnS...I find it very interesting...I may be right....but for now....:smokebong:

i made a new post about it, but my bad, i have a big computer screen so i didnt realize it was that big. lol. how should i close it off? cuz i dont have the money for those lights. im stickin with the fluorescents. im not using the whole closet, just that shelf.(closed it off with a blanket, but idk if that does anything) how much do the CFLs cost? and what wattage should i get?

Hi I would goto to your local lowe's.homedepot and grab a 4foot (cheapo shoplight 10$) (bulbs come in 2pack at lowes GE daylight!!) 6500k bulbs7$ ) i have 4 of these in my 2foot by 4ft closet at 17$ea you can't beat it! they also have the 2pack of the kitchen&bath 3000k!! for 7$ those will do much better for dollar than the cfl's peace now back to LED GROW pic's up yet stealth?

Yeah i know, but with the LEDs I wasnt sure how good the reflection would be. they are not a bright white light reflecting off a white wall. still just guessing here. I even toyed with the idea of louminous magenta paints. Just as light is broken up into red, green, and blue, the base pigments for paint are magenta yellow and green. magenta paint is that color because it absorbs green light and reflects red and blue. hmmm...

any chance youve seen this: liquidreflector its the stuff they use to make lines on the road (or the same theory at least). I may try combining the magenta paint w/ the glass beads...lol.

Db:smokin:

P.S. sorry WH got going and it became techie

I have been working on a light fixture and driving down the road yesterday i asked my buddy were i can get some of the reflective white paint on the road!! and BAM! you got the link sweet! ty:thumbsup:

.....pics up tomorrow!!! got six confirmed girls so far:weedpoke: and NO males...im sure thats because the hermie jack herer pollinated the bubbleberry, so they should almost be all feminized seeds...pretty much, yeah? hopefully when i get off work and post pics tomorrow, i got some more ladies wanting to show off their hoo-hoos for us.....bong

first 2 pics are the test plant as usual...14' tall, 17' wide...mmm and its not even one of the bushy ones middle pic is the whorly...pretty girl...:hippy: gonna do some light tests to get you guys some better close ups...supposedly an HD camera...but i cant,...whatever...enjoy
oh, last 2 pics are more ooooh aaahs.

off the LEDs for a sec, wanted to show you guys the 2 main phenotypes i got with my cross. for the noobs, its jack herer x bubbleberry.... first pic, we'll call her mary of course (look at lil sis growing next to her...suprise seed that didnt germ with the rest), is the more sativa ish plant...thinner leaves, stretchier. the second is the one that has 6 tops...we'll call her titties...my shoice, dont ask. much bushier, wider, and darker leaves....then the last 2 are of the mystery seeds...either its one of the parents, ima stoner, lost the packet it was in, labeled...or bagseed from some WW or skywalker....well know more as we see more titties

I am still following your log Stealth! Keep up the good work!

How long away from floweing now, few weeks?


Peace,
Denial

[d4twamp]

hey stealth crew the ladies are lookin healthy...if you do get access to the hd camera you'd be able to get some good closes up of the flowers... keep up the good work .. i can't wait myself to expiriment with leds ... just trying to figure out which way to go ,or should i say GROW well thanks for helping us noobs learn a few tricks

later D :greenthumb:

I'm pretty "medicated" right now and don't feel like reading 20 pages...

Are you foliar feeding? How often? Would it be worth it to foliar feed once a week?

Also, can you take some close up pics of the nodes with the preflowers? That stuff is always cool to me.

Peace!

they also have the 2pack of the kitchen&bath 3000k!! for 7$ those will do much better for dollar than the cfl's

That would be true, except for the part where it's not. If you can get them in 2700, or better yet 2450K, then what you're saying could be true. It takes twice as many lumens to induce the same chlorophyll activity at 3000, than it does at 2700. It takes about 4 times as many lumens at 3000 than it does at 2450. So I really don't see how the bulbs you speak of will do much better for the dollar. That's why T-5 sucks for flowering. Nothing below 3000K.

Oh crap, sorry SnS. I thought I was in the other thread. Can't delete.
