Hello everyone! Cheers to Dogz for all your experimentation! It looks like it's going well. I wanted to say hi and that I haven't died or contracted swine flu :-) I'll be done with school in less than a week (thank goodness) so in the honor of that (well, and because the timing just works out) I'm starting a new grow on my second martian attempt. I haven't started the new log yet, partially because I won't have time until next week and partially because I want to check with Sal to see if it's OK with the timing, but regardless of whether or not I post it, it's already started. :-)

A week ago, I put two Aurora Indica from vegging at 18/6 to total darkness for four days in order to kick off flowering. After that I put them under 12/12 for three days. One was male, so that one was cut and I'm left with one female plant. I just changed the lighting schedule on that plant to 6/11/6/1, as per my last guess on page 7 or 8 of this thread. The lights are:

Daytime: 2x 42w 2700k CFLs
AD: 8x 13w 660nm RED LED lamps plus 2x 25w Red incandescent

I believe my particular combination of LED and incandescent results in a time factor of about 2, so my schedule should look to the plants like 6 hours of daylight and 12 hours of SID-equivalent time. Of course, I'll be checking and adjusting as necessary.

BTW, anybody heard from Weez lately? I'm just wondering how he's doing...
