UPDATE: Day 14 - End of Week 2

increased saturation to enable more detail, btw, the plants look more nute burned than
they really are but of course my POS camera won't show that

As well, I have a green thumb so it isn't my first plant grown. It will be under LED lights, going up to a maximum of 64W using "china panels" according to stealth (you'll see them in the pics). For nutes, I'm using Botanicare's Bloom Pro, Liquid Karma and Gro Pro. Pre-mixed nutes: http://www.snapdrive.net/files/470781/Grow/pre_nutes.JPG L>R:bloom, gro, and a tiny bottle for foliar spraying the seedling all Rating: 5

it's either the led's aren't giving enough energy for increased vertical growth or the fact
that i have a trifoliate makes it a runt from what i've read
but there's a promise of it being female if it makes it to flower
*sigh* i'm gonna have to grind out the weeks and weeks of waiting for this grow to finish

well mas, sorry to say but those pictures are all i ever needed to know about the china panels. Thought i might fix the one i got and try clones (ala CFL) but not now, Hey maybe I could sell it on ebay as a grow light...lol sorry

2 weeks two sets of leaves about 1' 1/2 tall.:wtf: uhh...hope they hold on for ya.

well, it's cool, im gonna deviate from delving deeper into the mysteries of led lights lol
im totally gonna buy the procyon next paycheck or wait for the cree kit

im happy to hear your still going at it. remember even though you did not get what you wanted, we do have some documented evidence of those lights on pot plants. Thats very valuable to all of our research:thumbsup:

i could also use it as proof towards the non-efficiency of growing actual plants if i ever want
my money back lol
but i think whatever lights i will be using in the future they'll still prove to be useful since they
run cool and do add more of part of the spectrum plants love nonetheless

what soil are you using? it looks like mulch on top.

lol im using coco
im either going to find a hydro store that has t5 lights in my city today or order online
god, it's like no one in my city stocks t5 lights, it's so annoying

[maspino1]

epic, i just found a hydro shop with great customer service
the guy was sooo nice lol

[maspino1]

in addition to the led's i have added 2 ho t5 bulbs
they're so amazing, they're so bright they go right through my box made of foam board
here's the pic of the inside

notice how it actually makes the led's look like they're not really on?
