headshake Reviewed by headshake on 04-08-2009. First grow. led This is my first grow. I will be using one of the Chinese e-bay ufo's a 14w panel and 80w florescent tubes(only on 6 hours a day to hit the rest of the spectrum) the enclosure is covered in Mylar, there is a fan blowing directly on the plants. the soil is miracle grow organic with sand and worm castings in it. the ph is running about 6.7 I'm running 24/7 light for veg with 6 hours of the florescent. So far so good they are about 6 days after germination now (some of the plants first leaves are Rating: 5

Aloha, QR

Not a major screw-up.
Though you will get more stretch and perhaps a tad less leaf mass they will work for veg.

And, you are right, cool white does have more blue.
2700K is Warm white.
The numbers are degrees Kelvin.
Higher numbers are hotter.
Not about actual heat, more about the colors emitted as thing get hotter.

Read more, buy less.

You asked about odor in veg.
Short, funny answer?
If you're lucky!

Useful answer?
There are variables.
Strain is the biggie, followed by temperature.
Best to plan on dealing with odor from the beggining.
Ass covering is always a good plan.

They get busted...

A side note.
Duct tape is a PIA!
You are going to find that it will lose it's sticky when it gets hot.
With 132Watts of flouescents, it will get hot!
Just tryin' ta he'p, brah.:twocents:

Good luck.

the duct tape is on the out side mostly and the inside it isnt holding the lights in or any thing i used silicon to hold them into the Rubbermaid. Guess im just stupid about the light thing assumed soft meant cool oh well ill just supplement my flower cab with them now no biggie. is there a small scale cheap way of dealing with smell do the small home ionizer things work to kill this smell if i put it in the closet with the tub? have one that's why i ask. thx for the help i do read about most every thing before i do, i guess i just remembered wrong while i was standing at the home depot stoned...:stoned:

thx again

[edub325]

Finally some Flowers They are going pretty well have some good looking bud sites one seems to have a lot more then the other. the GF named them both yesterday. The one further a long that i also think might be a herm is named "Henrietta" and the other one is "Gladis". Henrietta has lots of bud sites and undergrowth Gladis everything is still growing at her main stem. oh and a side note Henrietta as Topped Gladis was not.( will be doing it from now on). I got my seeds in From Attitude Great and fast. Green House Sativa Indica Mix C thats what i bought. Started Germing 1-SSH 1- Big bang 1- Lemon Skunk and 1_Diesel (Free seed G13 is Fem too). As of this morning all but the SSH have popped and i will be putting into some medium here shortly. Guess thats all for now here is your pics







You might have to go to my album to see the buds at all peace

[headshake]

* Church
* Arjan's Strawberry Haze
* Lemon Skunk
*Great White Shark

the two ladies are looking great imo let me know what you think its about day 25 ish of flower. starting to get some nice crystals and Gladis (the one that hasn't branched) is getting a nice skunky smell. My 4 newbies are all sprouted and appear to be doing well minus a little stretch. had to back down my lights in the grow tub was just too hot. it runs about 86-89 right now with the lights on plants don't seem to mind other than needing water all the time. Found it interesting that All the green house seeds have reddish colored stems. and the one G13 diesel has a green one. Guess thats it took a ton of pics hope you enjoy the bud porn. Oh and i picked up some GDP for the holiday (4/20) its fuckin bomb. maybe ill take some pics and post later.


Gladis's top ^^

This is what i got to smoke on for 4/20 some Grand daddy purps not sure why the photo has a pink hue to it the stuff has lots of dark purple and all kinds of crystals. The high is very heady and up which i guess is weird for a purple strain maybe just picked early. lacks a little in taste has a decent smell but the taste is very mellow to non existent at times.


in my space case if your wondering what its sitting in.

[albatrossSKY]

happy 420, your grow looks pretty amazing thus far. keep up the good work and thanks for the info about attitude.
