I have had a similar problem with my cheap chinese panels - Plants were stunted with really fucked up leaves - holes in them, bits dropping off, rust marks, the lot. Wondering if I should ditch 'em and use HPS......or does anyone know of a cheap led that works? Can't afford to get the QB's atm but need some solution. Lost about 8 plants now to led's.....
Nice to hear it's not just me...

I don't want to seem like I'm an Amare troll, coz I'm not. I'm sure their newer leds are probably much better. Been reading a few journals with Amare. It's would be harsh to say all their panels have caused problems.

I'm going to leave that like that.

Doing feeds today for the Trainwreck auto's. Notice they are dark green, so I'm not going to add much nitrogen. I'm not using iguana bloom on these plants. I'm going to use bud candy and overdrive. Overdrive is npk 1-4-5 or 1-5-4, so as they are flowering at lightning speed, so it's 2ml overdrive, 2ml bud candy - per 1 litre.

It should make them explode as overdrive is a finisher, normally only used in the last 2 weeks. That's what the bottle says anyway.

Can you recommend any cheap led's that definitely do the business? I have just switched a 2 week old plant to my led from cfl. It seems to veg ok but I'm not keen on using these led's after the switch to flower 'cos I ain't losing anymore plants! Been growing 1 year and most plants I have grown have fucked up, because of mistakes with led's, or led's just not doing what they should.
I need a cheap dead cert......can't afford to buy QB's atm, even if they were available........

:joint:

.....although, all previous fuck ups were Auto's not Photo's and these plants are Photo's but I don't know if that will make any difference.....

Put a link up here of your journal mate. I can help you if you grow in soil or coco. I don't know a thing about hydro... If you did a journal, I could help you so much more. If you ain't got 1, start 1.

There are many things I need to know. Your area, your plants, what kind of climate you live in, ambient temps, how much bud you want, your electricity bill - budget you have to use, I need to see pics of your plants to diagnose problems, I can help you through it if you want?

I struggled like hell to learn when I started growing. Some dude took me under his wing and walked me from rags to riches!

I have struggled to learn anything in my life. I got brutally abused from 7 years old until 13 in some religious boarding school. My brain cracked then and I've complex ptsd and anxiety since 7 years old. Rape, torture, beating with objects, beatings without, getting trapped under desks, hypnosis, drugged, terrorised, brainwashed, groomed, the lot. My brain is damn nearly destroyed and left me unable to learn/function properly.

I know what it's like to struggle like fuck through life! I will always have time for helping people, no matter what your background is!

Got the Trainwreck's fed, also fed the Pineapple Express, skunks and the older moby dick xxl's this overdrive feed. Only 1 litre each.

I remove some lower growth on the Blimburn Cindys. They are going to be easy to feed now, without leaves in the way. I like to water 1 litre of feed per day in flowering. That's why I always ph the feeds, no time else for the soil to buffer it.

They were quite thirsty. They got 2ml bud candy, 3ml iguana bloom, 2ml seaweed - per 1 litre - but seen as they are photoperiods and have to stay green for a while still more than auto's do, I also added 1ml magnecal+. Not organic, but that's ok, a bit every so often won't harm the soil much. It's immediately available, so hopefully they drink it 1st.

They looked good, I expect these to give me about 3-4 ounces each. Which will be nice as there are 5 of them.

Like my last journal, the sofa is going on it's side again due to lack of space. There will no longer be room for it to go horizontal, as I have a new 3ft x 3ft tent otw, new fan, fan controller, new clip on fan, new duct, the lot... By Wednesday the tent at least should be up and running. Tmrw I hope to complete my business with Budmaster. That's one thing about mars led, you can get hold of smokesara day or night lmao, even order a mars 400 on Christmas day :grin:

Budmaster actually have the weekends to themselves... :lol: Fairplay, but it's just my luck, it's always the weekend when I try and buy new leds :lol:

That will be my 8th set up. It's a new personal best! Really just to accommodate my next led purchases. The electricity is creeping up. However part of my reasons is these are so good on half power, that the savings in veg can be spent in flowering. Then I'll still only be using 2/3 of what I was last years, that's when it's on full power. It will be about 1/3 during veg. So I can still easily add the new area without concern.

Plus look at the grow :shock: ''I'm on FIRE!!!'' :fire:

growing opens many doors (:
It really does! Fast cars, campervans, holidays, nice clothes, plus not being a frickin slave, just to survive. That's the biggest bonus of the lot.

When I'm zipping round in my sports car at 2am, at 9000rpm at 135mph+, I'm not thinking 'should I have done something else with my life..?'

Once you shake the fear and paranoia of getting raided and simply just don't give a fuck, it's all down hill from there. I have told the police and my doctors and therapists that I grow weed. That's how much I no longer give a shit!

It's better and cheaper for the government if they leave me the fu*k alone. What else are they going to do, pay £1000's every week to put me in a hospital with full time care... I knew the crack, I laid the cheese... they didn't bite it! So bollocks to caring, I'm going 100mph until death to leave my family wealthy.

I never thought I'd be successful at anything.. I'm not letting anybody take it away from me!

9000rpm? You got a Honda s2000?

I agree with you tho fevs. It annoys me how much people are scared by weed! It's the best thing I ever did. Ive ran out myself n with no funds im waitin on a harvest next month. My minds a fuckin mess.

I ain't got the balls you have to admit what im doing tho... Yet haha.

Yep. She's a beauty, AP1. Totally standard. Like she left the factory. Got a low mileage gem, perfect bodywork. 1 previous owner. I even treated her to a new roof just before the winter, so she's looking great.

V-tec, pink Floyd, empty roads. Love it! I'm keeping her another year, then changing to either a Lotus Exige, or newer Lotus Elise. I also want a Land Rover Defender 110 (limited edition silver) That is more like an investment though. The Lotus will be for me to have fun with.

Get somebody Depressed... Stick them in a Honda S2000 with a full tank of fuel... See how long that depression lasts! It gives me adrenaline, which helps get rid of depression.

That's basically the position I'm in mate. It's shit.
Gonna get things up and running - with the kind help of @Fevs -

Fucking hell mate, you did get a rough start! Thought mine was bad but not compared to yours. Glad life is much better for you now :)

I'd really appreciate the help, that would be awesome! I do have a journal but it needs updating. I'll get on the case tomorrow and provide all the info you need. I have space to grow 6-8 plants and have 1 in veg atm and 3 just sprouted.

If I get caught growing then fuck 'em.......I've not worked for nearly 3 years because of anxiety, depression, aspergers, suicidal thoughts - I even tried it once but obvs failed....didn't take enough pills with the vodka lol and the govt. want me to jump through hoops like a twat just for £200 benefits every 2 weeks. Instead of support to get my shit sorted and get back to work, they make my stress/anxiety even worse, so I'm not gonna be bothered about growing some product and selling a bit to pay a couple of bills or have a cheapo holiday in Spain. It's gotta be better than sitting in my flat staring at the walls lol

Feeds today for Cindys and the auto's. 3ml bloom, 1ml alg-a-mic, 2ml bud candy - per 1 litre.


All plants should need feeding again tmrw, that's the plan anyway.

I've got 1 pineapple express that just isn't flowering, she has shown sex, but is just not flowering. It's probably swinging more towards the Pineapple Chunk parent strain. I'll stick her on 12/12 in the next batch unless she gets going.

Decided it were best to just cull the Pineapple Express auto that isn't flowering. It had only shown sex on 50% of the nodes, something ain't right with that one. She had an early visit from the angel of death! 45 days old roughly, shame, she was in good health too. I just ain't got time for that shit tbh. I'll order a photoperiod pineapple chunk, if I want a photoperiod one lol

The last thing I need is a photoperiod plant that has been bred with autoflower genetics. I grow auto's for speed and ease.

On the upside I did stick the other pineapple express plant back in there, so there is still 4, but they are all flowering nicely.

My Ak47's regs are starting to show. I have 2 females from the remaining 7, some haven't shown their sex still.

Bubbling up another feed, 3ml alg-a-mic (seaweed) - 3ml iguana bloom - 2ml bud candy - per 1 litre.

Blimburn Cindys are now in flowering, like proper flowering. They are going to be great!
