modular overkill led striplight build

i have 8w 365nm running for 6h a day, should work even better then 390-400.
it may have a effect, who knows, without may more rot.
while its clear that UVA isnt UVB.

i hate the feeling, last runs i didnt had a single problem, but i used my dehumidfier more extensivly, got lazy there and thats may the bill.... i should also had turned up the exhaust fan a bit more earlier.
also should have organized the colas better with a second net to improve the airflow.
lets hope i get away with it.

so far i think i am ok rot wise, have the dehumidifer running 24/7.

next project in the 3.33x3.33.

Sweet Seeds, Dos Sweet Dos.


one in the back was a bit runty from the start.
poped 6 seeds, 3 are quite nice, 2 are a bit runty, 1 was very runty.
new growth looks ok on the runt, lets see.

others are nice.

3000K about 200 ppfd, will increase.

theyre 74 days now at least, think time is comming to chop em.



developing some nice colors.
couldnt find any more rot, all dead leaves are simply faded/canibalized.
went prob a tad to early on 0 fertilizer, 2 weeks now.


i prob grow another green gelato (same genetics as this) in this tent next,
only change going half organic with soil.
bought some regular stuff peat based soil and some tomato organic fertilizer pellets plus a bottle organic tomato fert.
curious to see what i makes to the taste, its long ago i grew in soil.
just want to play with it and compare, normally i am really happy with cocos chips now and dirt cheap mineral salt.

Looks to be a hefty harvest for you. Nice frost on calyxes. Look forward to your final impressions on this crop once chopped and its had a chance to cure.
Will be interesting to see how growth and production work out on next round. Soil plus cooler temps.

results seem to be great for just a 130W, havent thought.
temp will be a bit different thats true, humidity is also nothing i can keep on point as co2 and overall airexchange.

the do sweet dos got topped today.
theyre doing nicely with 60-70W 3000k and a EC of 1.2.



before

after

They really picked up. Looking perky and much bigger. Fingers crossed for roots on the chopped tops.

Everything looking great, Cob

all good.
300ppfd 100W

looks like theyre quite hungry, especially for magnesium.
upped their food and suplemented some epsom salt.
overall all good, some cleanup and theyre ready to flower soon for sure.


the cuts all made it.

do sweet dos clones clearly rooted and transplant was overdue.

Looking hot grower...... Nice job cobber

last day on 18h for the do sweet dos would say.
as they grew in to the light they got more then 400ppfd for some time and especially number 2 didnt liked it,
no drama but less then 400 do me better.
so far just used 3000 Kelvin.

before cleanup.

number one and four are real nice plants, number 2 had minor problems, still doing great.
3 is the runt, who is doing fine, while i dont think the genes are that good.



cleanup and a little training done

the results from the 3x3 130W grow.

230g real nice buds.


plus another 57g smokable buds

they where dry and the scale where zeroed.

I think I have the same crappy scale..... Nice work grower

thanks, this scale is for sure some hot sale item on amazon worldwide.

+ 2g / w. Great results, looking good

thanks rocket.
to be fair 2g plus is only with including the smokeable buds, which i will simply smoke like the better ones.
but yeah only the 230 tray counted would be less then 2g a watt.
still got plenty smoke for the used energy.

the do sweet dos today, all is doing fine.
3 or 4 days on 12/12 now.


roots poking out everywhere.

Beautiful plants and pictures.

What an outstanding example for anyone wishing to see a lower wattage/square foot example. 130w in a 3 x 3. Great thread full of successive grow journeys.
