LEDs

Post by **Jesús Malverde** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 11:52 pm

I'll be following. LEDs in the flower room are just recently getting a real try in the legal grow industry here. I mentioned in earlier that I bought some Amnesia haze grown completely under LEDs and it looked good and had potency, but the bud had a kind of a weird gummy texture and didn't smoke particularly well. Could have been at least partly the cure to blame too though I guess. I'm still waiting to find some LED-flowered stuff that ticks all the boxes.

A big thx from the bottom of my heart!

RE the calcium
That's a known issue with LEDs, due to the missing wavelengths past the red PAR spectrum
Separately increasing Ca , with a cal-mag like product, the higher the ratio Ca:Mg, the better of course .. , pump it up by an EC of 0,3 , as your very first compound when mixing your solution, solves most strains, separately increasing temperature by 3-4 C , compared to hps ideal, helps too "adjusting" those issues, its simple, just juggle your knobs towards your wanted output

Gogogo!

I'm using pre-buffered (Ca Mg) coco, plus a very good coco nutrient that has an N-P-K-Ca-Mg ratio of about 15-3-20-8-3. As long as I feed them properly, they seem to do well. CX has a mineral-based Part A and an organic-based Part B. Temps are already quite warm here - 30-35C inside the grow tent.

The Monster Bud on the left is a single part organic flowering nutrient with lots of aminos, fulvic and humic acids with an N-P-K-Ca-MG of 15-11-18-4-2 - I use it as a P supplement after 2-3 weeks of flowering. It seems to mix well with the CX. I've used the same formula for years, including the Budlink silica additive. This is pretty much all I use.

I even use CX flowering nutes for veg. With run-to-waste, it doesn't matter - the plant takes what it needs and the rest gets flushed.

Just over three-and-half weeks and starting to bud up a bit. Be interesting to see how they flowering. LEDs are fucking bright, but I can still get them inches away from the plants without burning them.

It feels weird growing horizontally.

4 and a half weeks of flowering. I split the frames to handle the different heights.

they look awesome !!! they are coming along really well

you have no carbon filter?? couldn't see it in any of the previous pics?

There's one in there above the highest LED frame - you just can't see it in the pix.

Thanks Christopher Andrews. The really weird thing is, you have a very English sounding name, but your website makes you sound like a Chinese! Are you sure your name isn't Christopher Wang?
