Aw mate they look soooo good
Thanks Buddy! I have to say that I am very pleased with my LED's so far, but get ready for some Action! WooHoo!

I took the glass out of the 2nd unit today to BOOST the Lumen output. I usually Harvest these strains at about 60 days from Flip...

I Could you imagine MY ROOM filled with YOUR MainLined Blue Rhino's! WooHoo! How many do you think I could fit in a 4' X 5 1/2' room?

Peace

Finishing up day 2 of 12/12! WooHoo! You will see by the following pics that they LOVE to sleep the extra 6 hours!

Re-Foliating quickly, released LST's are climbing higher and might need to be retied? We shall SEE!

WooHoo! End of Day 15 of 12/12! Let the Budz Multiply!

Defoliating has kept the stretch to a minimum, and the Budz are forming!

Apologies I haven't read everything yet. Skipped to the end... So you have been pulling leaves off them gals? Wow... They look super full still. I guess the plants veg like crazy with the lights you got?

are you planning on clearing out the bottom anymore? I know we all have our tastes but I like to clear that whole bottom 1/3 out completely.

and holy shit... That's just day 15!!! I kinda don't believe it. I mean I trust you but just wow.

I just picked up some leds from the same company and I'm about to have a heart attack from excitement.

nice work buddy. I'll read up on what's going on now.

WooHoo! You are gonna LOVE your New LED Panels!

I am a TRUE BELIEVER of Defoliation. The Trick is to Know WHEN to Defoliate, to produce the effects you want. I am NOT a FAN of LEAVES! Hehehe

Being the 1st time Flowering with these units, I am leaving the Lower Budz in place to determine the penetration depth. As a routine, I usually leave them anyways to Maximize the Edible/Hash pile!

I HOPE that My testing makes for an EASY Learn, for YOU!

PLEASE Link ME if you Journal your Experience!

Amazing grow man, WTF?... What kind of leds are these ,cree's?
I really am not sure...

Damn man, I am about to start testing these panels to, after seeing your room I am very excited! How many weeks did you veg? Subbed up to see the ride!
Veg time varies with the plants I added to fill the entire room and probably not a TRUE indication of the LED Panels performance... cause I was doing ALOT of Height Testing, with the glass removed from only 1 Panel.

Be VERY EXCITED... cause these LED Panels are VERY Powerful and PROVEN to produce WAY BETTER than MOST LED's on the Market!

After THIS run I HOPE to have ALL MY Q's figured out and Dialed IN for My next Grow, which I predict to be even AWESOMER!

Peace my Friends!

What pointers would you offer someone used to HPS about to test those LEDS? Would like to learn from your experiences so I can be ahead of the curve!

Since these units do not put out very much heat, you may need to bring temps up. I find aprox 78 degrees F to be Perfect.

No advice will be as good as being able to Read the Plants and respond in kind. 5 More weeks of 12/12 and I will give you the 420 as I learned it!

Good Luck papapayne, I will be tagging along!

Replenished about 50% of Res (thirsty girls). I spent over an hour last night doing my Double Handed Pinch and Twist Defoliation. They could use ANOTHER hour or 2, so I will continue in a day or so.

Here are some random pics after 24 days of 12/12

WooHoo! 4 weeks of 12/12 Completed!

I am still plucking away to allow Penetration of these LED Units to the Lower Budz.

After SEEING 619ster's Harvest, and Completing 4 weeks of 12/12 myself, I decided to pick up 2 more units since GrowEvolution.com has THESE units listed at half price! But then they showed me the NEW TECH and ended up ordering 3 of the NEW Bud Boss 150's! WooHoo!


Pics from day 28 of Flower @ Lights OUT!

Wow man things are looking pretty insane for ~250w man!!! Very nice work Med! I too am falling quite fond of these lights. Definitely on the higher end of the scale as far as LEDs are concerned IMO. I'm sure we'll be seeing another fine display of just that from your grow with the way things are looking.

Looking good man! I am excited more and more about these new LEDs!
WooHoo! WooHoo! WooHoo! Can ya tell I am EXCITED?

I have been doing some construction to create a New Veg space, in a seperate area from my Flowering rooms so I can eliminate ALL the interior doors. This will allow me to utilize the space MORE Efficiently (cram more plants IN) and have ALL 12/12 behind One main door. I will keep the partitions up to keep light sources Pure to each area.

Even though I would LOVE to finish THIS grow with the 2 -True Blended Spectrum 10's, I have decided to switch to the 3 NEW BUD BOSS 151's from GrowEvolution. GrowEvolution switched to the Newest Technology in LED Lighting, so they have been selling the TBS10's at half price and only have a handfull left. What surprizes ME is that the New Tech LED's, which are More Powerful, are also priced LOWER than the TBS10's original price!

The way I have these panels set up, I am covering ~ 24 ft2 with only ~240 watts from the 2 LED Panels! Thats only 10 watts per square foot!!! I still have them at the same height, which was MORE for Learning the penetration distance and canopy size for the LED Panels. I have seen from everyone elses Journaling that the plants CAN get pretty close to these panels. So NOW, I have a GREAT idea of the TBS10's SWEET SPOT! NOTICE the MEGA FROST directly below these Panels!

The 3 Bud Boss 151's will double my watts per ft2 (~20), but I will bring the height down as close to the plants, while still covering the Entire Canopy... BUT... Next run I plan on arranging things at approx 30watts per ft. From my Lurking similar technology all over the Internet, I have to say that LED Technology is FINALLY competing with HID Lighting, and the Prices are getting ALOT Easier to swallow! WooHoo!

Enjoy the day 35 of 12/12 pics, while I replace the lighting!


















Peace and LOVE to ALL! (past-present-future)

I'm going to install a switch on the outside of my room to shut the lights off when I open the door... they are so damn bright I can't stand to look in the closet with them on.

Good luck with them.

AWESOME Idea! It took a few minutes for my Eyes to see colors normally after I hung them! And it was ONLY from the Reflection since I had them Below Eye level!

I have been testing one of these panels in 12/12 for just a few days, and can see a Definite increase in size OVER the other plants growth! WooHoo!

Peace
