Don't mean to be rude. But, you really either need some more LED wattage in there, or even some CFLs, that baby isn't growing very well, shes stretching so much.

I have the same mini-ionic pro and I was wondering if I should use it. It looks like, from your picture, that it might not be a bad idea haha. I'll go do that

Say Brother, What's up, Just found your thread! Great Job!! Your presentation and persistency of this thread have been handled like a Pro!!! Your Plant's look good, Looks like they may have streatch alittle, But not bad, I Tip My Hat to your progress.

The only thing You are going to need is some UVB, Get some Reptile Lamps to help you Flower and You will be fine, and your results in final Bud will Be Trich.'y,. Put the UVB Lamp's on a separate timer, They only need to be on 6 to 8 hour's. Also don't have the UVB on when you are visiting the garden. You have a great start, Just add to it and fine-tune alittle, Also Need to get your Nut. pattern down to a sience, That would also excel your progress. Good Luck and Hell-Ya our future is looking Brighter. Later

You should be reading as much as possible, as often
as you can. It's vital, that you know as much about
your plants as you can and treat them with much due
respect. It's looking ok so far, and you can always
improve on any setup. I would suggest as many cfl's
as possible, as they are extremely cheap and available
until you get your HID setup.

I would also suggest to all LED enthusiasts that you read
up on the light spectrum extensively and then apply that
to the current LED's in production. The average LED grow
light, in the RED Spectrum is at least 10-25nm off from the
desired RED Spectrum, and this tidbit of information was
in a quote from the creator of the UFO LED lamp. He admitted
that the desired RED Spectrum LED was a few years away
and that the production cost of said LED, set to the specific
RED Spectrum for Cannabis, was $1000's of dollars per LED.

So doing full research is NEVER a bad idea. Read all you can
and give those plants a lot of attention and they can give you,
in turn, a lot of buds. Good luck, and stick with it.

Looks a lot better!

Are you still using the LED's?
For the record, I'm stoked that you are
are doing a LED journal, and I am actually
watching thunderchunkies journal as well,
because I would like to see for myself if
these actually work, and not just read a
few articles so early in the LED game.

Good luck, and they look great.

Too many brownies
Ionic pros are bad for your plants! They produce OZONE which is harmful to plants.

If you are using it for odor problems place it OUTSIDE the growroom.

The plants look good man
