SNS those are looking good. I'm curious since these lamps don't generate that much heat could I use mirrors in my closet to help with the lighting of the plants?

Hey Sns, to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, when you begin flowering, you might consider taking a few of the ladies out of the LED room and flowering them under a HPS. You'll still have the results from the many plants flowering under the LEDs but you'll also have a comparison of weight from extremely similar plants flowering under 2 different scenarios. It will show how well plants respond to the light change and it will expand your experiment to cover another question many of us may be asking; is it effective to veg plants under LEDs then move them under HPS to maximize harvest?

Just some thoughts

Peace!

Agree'd! If you have a 600HPS , please flower a plant under it to compare the results.. The UFO after all is advertised as being equivalent to a 600HPS...

Sounds like its a good idea

Weedhound · #**458** (**permalink**) Feb-22-2008, 13:02

Well I freely admit i know NOTHING about lighting but those look like some fine, happy, healthy plants to me.

norkali · #**459** (**permalink**) Feb-22-2008, 14:37

I second that motion to compare under an HPS....

Amazing either way, can't wait to see what they will do under those LED's.

SnSstealth · #**460** (**permalink**) Feb-22-2008, 15:18

while it sounds like a great idea...we came into a one time stack o loot.....dont have a HPS...the point of this grow is to have an all LED grow...especially since i dont have my HPS or MH anymore!....lol but i have grown jack herer and bubbleberry many times before, so iwould estimate a yeild of about 2oz per plant w HPS...ill use that for comparison....but remember...the LEDs will produce even more potent herb...no one really knows why yet, for sure, but it happens...
so it doesnt look like i butchered them bad WH? those first 2 pics were a plant im trying to get to grow like your church did....heh...what im not getting here, is bubbleberry is 70% sativa, and jack herer is about the same.....dont know about you guys, but these plants look very indica to me.....may change come flowering...see how the buds form...soon guys...soon.......
peace, pot and micro dots

whiskeytango

and since i am comparing EVERYTHING abou this grow to my previous grows....if i hooked up a HPS, that will fuck up me monitoring the energy consumption of the room.

and yeah bob...the 90w UFO CLAIMS to do as good as a 600 HPS....but we got 3 procyon 100w with better red/blue ratio...so i hope the 3 of these are more in comparison to a 1k HPS

Is it possible that there are more variations of the Blueberry???

Weedhound · #**462** (**permalink**) Feb-22-2008, 22:45

Don't try that on MY thread luis.

Stealth I've noticed that know that I have a 400w mh ALL my plants' leaves seem to be growing wider and larger in general....I'm wondering if that's just a sign of good lighting for your plants. Maybe i'm just stoned but I was honestly thinking that the other day myself.....both the Whiteberry and WW I'm growing now have a fair amount of sativa in them yet both their leaves look very much like the ones on your plants.

That's just an off the wall stoner's theory......

SnSstealth · #**463** (**permalink**) Feb-23-2008, 13:22

good theory WH....makes sense

and the ratios...im going off of the big book of buds vol1.....pg 79...bubbleberry is 70 sativa....there are variations of many strains, ive seen 6-7 "blueberry"...but DJ short has the original blueberry...i only get my stats on strains from the shop that made the strain...im sure reefermans jack herer, is nothing to sensi seeds jack herer...question answered??? and bubbleberry id half bubblegum and half blueberry....more sativa in the bubblegum, and im sure they picked a more sativa oriented blueberry for their cross......been working with these few strains for years....lol

aw hell naw, im not falling for that again

Opie Yutts · #**465** (**permalink**) Feb-23-2008, 18:24

Those guys don't look as professional. Their proof and pictures sucks. They say it rivals HPS, kinda doubt it. Looks like they only have two colors. What about carotenoids?

adahars37 · #**466** (**permalink**) Feb-23-2008, 19:31

SnSstealth, nice looking grow. i am currently looking at led grow lights and was wondering if you know anything about the LED UFO?

hydrorascal · #**467** (**permalink**) Feb-23-2008, 22:15

HH... as I said in the other led thread... the link you posted is to 'one more time' .. another 2 spectrum led piece of junk....

Yes .. 2 spectrums will grow plants... plants grow under cfl's .. soo they do adapt.

The pic by my nic shows my seedling unit on its side... and for a seedling unit I use more than 2 spectrums... why ?? Because plants want and need them for optimum growth !!!!

HillBillMT · #**468** (**permalink**) Feb-24-2008, 00:56

try two ..... well i like what i see so far, i signed up taday just because of this thread so double toke to ya ,,,, i have not yet vested in theese yet, but will soon. i look forward to watching your progress. i will be moving soon to a place that is 'off the grid', nothing new for me, but i still want ta have an indoor garden. this is not practicle with hps, and skechy with floresants. when your power is stored in batteries it realy limmits the power you can consume.... thanks fer pullin me in and ill be back often .... frome the 'high' country, HB
