And this is them on July 24th.
For day 49 in flower I'm happy with the results so far. I will be changing the way a few things are done next grow.....like flower at 15' and not 30'. Also light height adjustments (16'-24'). And a different nutrient schedule. But.....its all a learning experience, You have to grow with your room or your abilities will be stunted.

They are lights from a company called Grow evolution. I absolutely love em. So far so good. Nice grow by the way Tina looked delicious. How long have you been growing? And I might have missed it but what was or is her total weight?

I see, your plants look really nice
I've never heard of that company, so I'll check their stuff out. I thought I found them all, haha. Thanks a lot, yeah Tina was a pain to grow and pretty nice to smoke
Since I started smoking it as soon as it was dry enough to burn, I never got around to weighing it. It's hard to buy a bag of weed when you've got that much just chillin at your house, haha. It was definitely over two ounces though because I smoked a lot really often, and it lasted me about 6 weeks. Normally, I work to keep it to an ounce a month, but all I kept thinking was "That shit was free, smoke another one," so I blew it up as much as I wanted. The latest two are my fourth and fifth indoor plants, and I started my first plant last November I think.

So far i haven't had any problems with these lights, and since they only draw around 130w it doesn't really hurt the old wallet. What led setups do you use? Which is your favorite? Any plans to get new lights? Thats the way to think about the meds man, smoke em if you got em....

Just got the moonchies by just watching at them pics man.. hahaaha, they look lovelly. now for 12 plants how many of those lights you think i will need? Also what lights you used for Veg, the same? And you are using 5 gal buckets?
Thanks UOENO, I use the same lights from seed to harvest, the plants strive from the start. The ones I have now got bigger than expected, but next time I am going to try half the size into flower, and put ten under three lights. Maybe Autos, maybe try 12/12 from seed...........and yes 5 gallon buckets. What do you have goin on on your side/ LEDs? Strain? Gotta link you can drop?
Thanks for checking my page.

I am starting my project but I am at the point to build my growing room, as of right now I have 12 clones Grand daddy. And I have some seed (sour diesel) so I have reading your whole project and it looks amazing, that is why I was asking about how many lights for 12-18 plants, i total noob here but thanks to your project and leaning towards those Led. Any advice from you would be awesome =)
Sup UOENO I use minimum two 130w panels for a 4x4 square. I added a third to boost production. I will try for ten smaller plants in a 4x4 square next round.

The only ones they sale are the TBS10? Because that is all I see... how many plants you got right now? and how much you think you are going to harvest.?
I have 5 under three lights and I think I will yield at least a gpw. I'm not sure of all their products, I got these panels and they've been good to me. No problems and the plants as you can see are doing well. And that was from seedling to flower.

Great well I will get 3 or 4 of them soon Thanks for answering my Q's what tempeture you have inside your grow? and what soil and nutes you are using?
Cool man, my temps without ac stay at 81 degrees. I use happy frog soil and am using the dyna grow nutes, grow, mag and protekt. I am really looking forward to seeing your setup drop a link when you can. Happy growing.
Ok so here it is...........I have to move out of the house I rent because they sold the house. I was served a notice that an appraiser was to be granted access to then ENTIRE house, I was forced to remove my ENTIRE grow setup TWO weeks early! It feels like Hell going through this grow just to cut it short by such a small amount of time. Its all good I'm relocating to a new house and will continue on with my third grow.
So I was speculating about a month ago that my plants had gotten badly root bound before their final transplant. I was correct which is good and REALLY bad at the same time. The good is I recognized the signs of being root bound. The really bad is the obvious, my yield suffered dramatically. I still managed to yield an average of 1&1/2 ounces per plant, which isn't horrible but I can only speculate the amount of weight I've lost. Here's the pictures of the root bound girls......you can see where the soil I transplanted them into a month or more ago hasn't even been tapped by roots. The roots roots are all brown and don't look healthy at all. Next grow I will be sure to transplant sooner and only use seven gallon containers minimum. That's the joy of growing though, you live, learn and try to not make the same mistakes again. Other than those two problems I am very happy with my plants and yield.

As for the harvest I did get I have delicious smelling, sweet tasting, densely formed buds. They shine like diamonds. My largest cola came in at 7.3 grams. These are the pictures I took right before chopping, after 24 hrs. darkness and flushing for two days. I understand the problems I had so please be kind in your advice haha. Here's the pictures of the sexiest ladies I've put my hands on all year.

Thanks a bunch medscientist I really appreciate the kind words. I have already found a new location and will be moving this week. I cannot wait to start again myself, or to see your room with 12/12 going on. How many plants are you putting under one light?
Smoke report to come soon!!!!

Nice results LEDGRow1. Really sucks about the surprise with the house. Talk about bad timing. One thing I wanted to suggest for next grow was trimming off some of the undergrowth. It should send the energy it would be spending on growing popcorn buds into growing bigger buds up top. Good luck next round.
