Check my AT120 , EXCELLENT View attachment 2641477
I don't mean to be a dick and call you out but I am good friends with the guy that actually did that grow...(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSlVMC1Jvec), Professor Greengenes. If you pay attention to my video's and pics you would realize that the "quest for the best led" he did and my current AT garden are in the same room...which is the one you are claiming as yours. So how is that your garden when I am standing in it right now and you're not here. I am smoking with the man who really did that grow you are trying to claim...Professor Greengenes...he is a pretty upset you are taking claim and whited out his phone number and contact info at the bottom right hand corner of your(technically his) pic.
That's pretty fucked up trying to steal someones work...then trying to show it off as yours to a guy who knows everything/one about the real deal.

Don't apologize to that piece of trash. You should be a bigger dick.

I sent that wanna be a pm this morning when I first saw it and knew where it was, thinking maybe they know the same people I do. Professor Greengenes does have other friends so there was a chance maybe they were just overstepping. But then PG came by the garden and helped and smoked like he does often, and I asked him if he knew of it or who would say that? He said no one would claim his work that he associates with and was super pissed. PG spotted the whited out contact right away that I never noticed. So I had/have to call that person out...I want to know what they have to say...but if they just never steal or claim others work again and never come back that would be great too.


On a different note... they girls are looking good. I think the Mg was what was holding them back.
I figured out how to tilt the end BR unit so it really works perfect now

Hey that looks just like my garden. Except I don't have. AT120's and my room is square and I have less plants in bigger pots.

I'm getting control of the Mg problem. Some pics the other day...trying to get a little artsy. Since these I have feed more Mg and foliared too just for quicker action and in the veg room too. I'll bring the Nikon out in a couple weeks when they are swelling and getting resined up. I've just been doing all my updates with the iphone cam so far.

^^^Damn Tags!! nice job man................So what height do you keep the panels at again??? need a little refresherbongsmilie

Did you get the new apache panel set up yet?????

Fantastic grow and really starting to itch on wanting the cheaper version of these lights. be safe brother

Edit: on the fourth pic it seems that the panels are spaced too far apart (width) for the grow area underneath and wasting light to the right side, or is it the camera angle???

I just talked to apache an he said he would have it ready for me friday. I am busy this weekend so if I can't make it down friday afternoon I will have to wait till monday.

The hanging height is one thing I have been struggling with a bit. In my tent with 2 AT120's I did 18"-24" just fine. But with the bigger scale setup I keep them at 24"+ and things are great...closer to 27"-30" actually. If I move them closer the edges start to curl just a bit or they point upwards. I could be the Mg def showing that too, but I think with all of them together the crossover is really upping the intensity even though I spaced the units based on 18" and 14* lenses crossover. Either way I am getting away with some higher hanging and not noticing any signs of low intensity.


As for the right side row of the pic it is mostly just the angle. There is room to pull that row about 4"-6" but thats it. The other side of the room will be filled with the new AT480 and (4) AT120's by next week so some light will come crossover from that side too.

CODE: RBK331 ...That code they gave me now works for just one light too and makes them $750. That is the best that is probably going to happen for a few months.

AT480 following in the footsteps of the 120? ~450W of 1W diodes?

I'm excited to see what else they come up with.

The AT 480 is a prototype that is going into limited production(100units-150units). It will be 4 AT120's(6 lens together) spaced 8" apart under one housing. It will eventually evolve into the AT320. which will be 16 of the AT120 lens units spaced out to cover a 4x4. But to do that apache has to cut their heat sink into 16 peices and make sure it still cools correct and what not. The AT480 is ready to go because it's literally just AT120's put together, which have been extensively tested. It will actually pull 628w(157w x 4). Wattage is up there but it will straight kick a 1000w ass I'm sure. Saving only 40% on electricity is still saving and production wise should be better that hps.

There will also be a AT180 which is a fanless bar unit with 9 AT lenses spaced down one line. This will put out some serious umols compare to most other bar units.

AT480 should be available by end of the month. AT180 won't be ready until second half of june. And the AT320 I'm just not sure when, but it needs to hurry.

An other update but with some explaining about the new lights. Sometimes it is just easier for me to talk about thing...even when I'm as baked as I was...if you couldn't tell from my rambling and jumping thought trains.

I'm excited to get the new light and the other half of the room going.

I got a new camera so I had to play with it. It is a canon M301 video, but it does still shots too. Got some lenses with it too. It was a gift so I don't even really know what it can do yet.
Just a visual video to test it out. No news or talking.

I picked up a used light rail 3.5 for the veg room or possibly the new AT480. $80 seemed like a good deal with 2 trolleys and like 20 feet of track.

I also have diagnosed my rooms with broad mites. This is what was/is causing the weird growth and exaggerating the Mg problem. This is my first run in this facility and old problems are lingering for me to deal with. Like I have said before, this is a learning curve grow but I think it is about to make a huge leap for the positive on this next run. This one isn't over yet, so I'm hoping for a strong finish.

Here was a good broad mite link I found... http://pogenetics.com/?page_id=389

So what are gonna do about it Tags??? cold water dunk the bitches or chemical miticide..............personally I would go with Bifenthrin , its a common miticide (usda approved for food crops) and has a long track record in the US comercial ag industry. It's toxic at high % but If you drink beer or eat any corn products you've ingested it.

well its a tough call good luck tags.

I sprayed with organcide(mostly fish oil) yesterday and today with azomax(systemic). Then I will organiced again in a few days. I have had good success with these in the past.

I only strayed the under canopy in the flower room. I hate spraying during flower. But I soaked/flooded the veg room.
