My progressing journal with LED grow lights
Nice grow, I am also an LED grower. One of the few who took the risk. What light do you use ? I use the Pro-Grow Range, very nice lights.
Anyway, I am mow in week 11 or so of bloom, I vegged for 5 week so this is now week 16 since seed.
I heard that LED naturally prolong the bloom stage. I never go by what it says on the seed package. I always go by the colour of the trichomes to decide when to bloom.
Half milky and half amber is a standard time to harvest. If only 20% are amber you will get a more energetic high, if 80% are amber then you will get a heavy high.
For some reason it take a very long time for the trichomes to go amber under LED light. I have some milky trichs at week 11 but no amber yet.
The milky trichs are where the THC is at its peak, the amber is where THC breaks down in CBD. I think a nice balance between THC and CBD is a good high.
So you have a 60x jewellery microscope ? If not get on from the net for $5 or so. I think you will have more bloom to go. Don't go by the hairs (pistils) turning rusty. Watch the trichomes.
It is far more accurate. Let me know when you have a look at your trichomes under a microscope. Ill be interested to find out how they are looking.silent leprechaun Reviewed by silent leprechaun on . My progressing journal with LED grow lights LED grow light was invented four years ago,over the several years,it has been being used by minority gardeners.But there are still lots of users suspicious about the LED grow lights, I am one of those ones LOL! But since my tent was only 4x4x6 ft, and my old HPS and MH lights always emitted too much heat, initially I had a 220CFM fan on the exhaust to a carbon scrubber, but the temps were still too high. Of course, I didn't realize that I got a booster fan! So I got a 440CFM 6", which is much Rating: 5
