    LED grow NO.3, testing the Pro-Grow 260 and Rhino Seeds. Blue Treacle & AK47 AUTOS !

    Quick update no 5.

    Thanks for the rep Billy, glad I could be of some help.

    I had to take another few pictures to see for myself how these plants are growing. They are animals ! I think I'll be forever an automatic/feminised grower.

    It all just makes too much sense... They finish faster, I can grow more in my 90 x 90cm space than regular plants so I'll get a very similar yield to growing non-autos.

    As the plants are shorter the light is penetrating much better than before. I don't need to LST them either which saves me some space aswell.

    I have 7 plants in my tent and there is no over crowding ! This is a first ! And they are packing on the bud so fast ! I am betting that everyone here can see a difference in bud size...

    The 4 plants that came to the tent at about 1 inch in diameter have now fully caught up with my much more mature plants and all are doing great, great LED light and great seeds

    These ladies are going to turn out great ! Does anyone have any auto strains they would like to tell me about ? As long as they are on the Rhino Seed company website.

    The reason I want them to be available on the Rhino Seeds website is simply that they post discretely and I never had any trouble.

    Anyway, here are some pictures for your pleasure... Let me know if you see a marked difference from the last post 4 days ago... I think I do !

    How far along are you plants now? Im beginning to wish I got autoflower strains. Im using an MH/HPS combo and my last light bill for vegging wasn't too bad im expecting this one to be up there. How much did your electric bill jump up running them 20/4 if you don't mind me asking? Good job by the way.

    Hey, the plants are 41 days or so from breaking ground. In a normal grow I would veg for 4 or 5 weeks and wait another week to see signs of sex.

    Looking at he plants now I see buds popping out of everywhere ! These guys will be good yielders for me I'm sure.

    Regarding lighting, I am running 190w of LED and 260w of 2700k CFL @ 20 hours per day. I think my entire set-up is costing about €30 to run every month. So a Euro per day or so.

    It really doesn't bother me too much on electricity. The LED is a beast for the result of just 190w... You would be amazed... You can hear the plants grow under it !

    So I'm glad you are getting some tips from my grow. I'll be looking forward to seeing your grow soon.

    Take care dude.

    Update No. 6

    Hey all,

    So things are looking very good in my 3' x 3' tent right now. I'm very impressed with the vigour of these autos... They are about 52 days old by now and looking great !

    But remember that I picked up 4 plants from a friend that were very far behind in development. They have caught up in stature but not in bud production.

    The buds are beginning to fatten up at an ever increasing rate. I think this harvest will be a very good one !

    One plant is already beginning to suck the nitrogen from the leaves and is starting to yellow, but this is quite normal.

    Two other plants are showing signs of an issue. I believe it is a PH problem which I have to send away for a PH meter. I have the Litmus Paper but I want something more accurate.

    I can't believe I made it this long in growing without a proper PH meter... Other than that everything is going great. The 5 other plants are looking healthy and green.

    So here are some pics for you. I added the AAA battery so you can have an idea of the size of bud I have.

    LED grow NO.3, testing the Pro-Grow 260 and Rhino Seeds. Blue Treacle & AK47 AUTOS !

    Looking great SL. You inspired me with your first LED log to buy a Pro Grow 400 and I like it, but my grow space is 4.5 feet X 4.5 feet and I don't feel like its adequately covering more than 2.5 feet X 2.5 feet. I hung the light in the center of my 4.5 X 4.5 area and I'm just not happy with its coverage. The plants in the 2.5 X 2.5 area are growing very well under the 400 alone, but I want to utilize my entire area. I have debated buying another 400, but I still don't feel like it will cover the space right. Any suggestions on how to cover the edges better? I want to stick with LED to keep the temps and electric bills down. I think maybe I should have bought a 550. I have thought about maybe some LED spotlights. I am also toying with the idea of running my aeroflo2 30 site which if I bought another 400 that would work perfect, I just haven't done hydro in a long time and haven't had much practice with the aeroflo. Also being as I grow in a tent I am restricted on height and the aeroflo sits at almost 2 feet tall with only 4 feet to the top of the tent from there. I would have PM'd ya but I couldn't figure out how to...

    Hey Sticky,

    I have never used the 400 myself but a friend has.

    I would have thought the 400 might cover that area. I think the LEDs are set to 60 degrees so the lower the light is the tighter the footprint.

    The only way I see of getting more coverage from an LED light is to raise it, but low enough to prevent too much stretch.

    Maybe you should go down the road of autos like me. The buckets are very close together, this lets the light cover more plants.

    In your space you could have maybe 9 - 12 auto flowering plants, 1 foot sq of space per plant. I would go with 9 to start with. I think you will do well from that.

    I tried the AK47, auto, feminised and the Blue Treacle, auto, fem in this grow, from Rhino Seeds. I think I will always be an auto fan from now on.

    I think another Pro-Grow 400 should cover that space. But try the 9 auto flowers and your Pro-Grow 400 on the next grow. You only need to cover 3' x 3' then.

    If you want to fill the tent with more than 9 I think you will need the extra PG 400. There is a new PG X5 for sale now I think. If I had the cash to spare I would get it, maybe after Xmas.

    My plants are about 2' - 3' tall by now and they are fully grown. The autos also help when there are height issues, My tent is only 5' in height and I have no issues, I didn't LST this time.

    Anyway, hope this helps. Cool that we have another LED grower here. I've also added 260w of CFL to my tent. I think this makes a difference. Maybe fills the spectrum the LED can't.

    Take care
