I've never completely followed their chart, but I've done it about half way or a little better. It worked pretty well. Obviously not well enough since I have been experimenting with nutrient brands, but I'm pretty sure you get what you pay for. I've always had just a bit of a yellowing and/or chlorosis problem, but I'm not sure if was Fox Farm's fault or not. I don't exactly do everything the way I'm supposed to.

You could grow with all blue lights and make sure you have a bunch of them. Any light that spikes in the blue spectrum will help keep em short and bushy, unless you don't have enough of it. In that case it will stretch since it would think it's being shaded. Reddish/orangish light will make them stretch but is better for producing buds.
Bluish, vegging lights = around 5300-7500K
Orangish, budding lights = around 2300-3000K
Look for those numbers on the lights. Anything out of those ranges sucks for growing weed, and the outer limits of those ranges aren't real great either.
Also grow ruderellas sp? that flower automatically and end up short, or indica varieties, which are normally shorter than sativas.

ok first 2 pics are to hope to god maspino gets the whole topped topping thing...lol just pickin at ya mas....look at how the top of the first 2 pics has 2 tops, where as the rest all have one top...one point of growth....eh?
3rd pic is the test plant....i pulled a few fan leafs off some of them to let the sides out....this cross is doing serious side growth...gonna trim the hell outta them this weekend probably, and set them flowering a week from today....sounds like a plan
the last 2 pics are oooh aaaah pics of the room...
opie, i wish you all the luck in the world...Im hoping this LED thing is the ish...got alot in it, would be nice 4 years down the road to know that we were the few who got out and did it...made it more possible, or maybe more plausable for othres to get out and do it...thats why we started this thread...now there are like 3 or 4 others trying it...this could make any schmo who can get the LEDs able to grow...get rid of the beasters...and soon kind will be everywhere!!HAHAHA....(evil laugh attempt)
so yeah, i wish all of you would go out and get some LEDs...need someone to compare/suggest with ya know?...so make sure you all stay on here, cause we need all the opinions we can get..unless they are juvenile dribble (number 1, hackerclown..whatever your name is) and as far as the nutes go...i am giving them slightly more than the FF chart,,its a good chart for sure, i just wanna see what this cross can take

Hey specialak,
Clever screen name, and welcome to the club. If a little bitching is what it took to get you to join up, then so be it and stuff.

I think that's fine. I wouldn't want to feel obligated to do more than that.

Just for the heads up im buying approx 200 5W LED's for my array(s)(only gonna draw 100W though cause im gonna pulse the lights; 10% DC). 660, 470, 425, and 640nm with some yellow orange and green, the ratio actually came from Opie (thanks). Gonna take advantage of the shortness of the plant from the LED light to grow under a bed (approx 3'tall). Decided to go hydro for faster time and hopefully help the LED's with flowering since some people say LED's do not provide enough for flowering (I think 1000W of LED's should do the trick). CO2, nutes, the whole shebang (dont know correct spelling  ). Hopefully with all these factors I will have plants overflowing with bud. |

sounds great physics, but if i may make a suggestion...before you do that much, see how ours flower, something might be differant than you thought, and then like us, you will need to eventually add lights...maybe

Nintey-three percent of what I say is brilliant, factual information and seven percent is complete bullshit. Have fun deciding which is which.

thanks WH,
looking at your grow has got me wanting to top 1/2 the room. i'm not sure though, i still want comparable results and colas. the other plants seem to be doing fine without it.
on another note, Co2 definitely works w/ procyons. I dont really know about umols and such but as the room is mostly sealed, the plants rotated closest to the Co2 have had dramatic affect. just something ive noticed.
Db
hey stirring, smoking and growing all at the same time

If its not too much to ask...
I was wondering if it would be possible for you to post how old the beautiful plants are when you update pics every 3 days. Just easier for me to follow along. Looking amazing stealth crew i can only hope they do as well in flowering youll be getting some gorgeous buds.

Wiskey- your exactly right. Cant wait for them to flower. The grow is actually set for May so I have a while to change things up. I was also thinking of also using HPS for flowering but I hope 1000W of LED's are enough.
Db- The array is gonna be huge. The lights are going to be randomly spread over the 6'x8'(ish) cover (and also on the inside walls) to the grow box. Going to have a water cooling system for the LED's, I was thinking a small tubing stsyem and a small radiator would be fine. As for wiring...i'm trying to figure out as I speak.
