480W LED Closet Grow

Day 2 of flush. Great fade going on, little bits of purple popping up here and there. Took a couple pics with lights out

 

48 hrs of darkness before chop began this morning. Kept waiting for triches to start ambering but after 11 weeks still almost no amber so I finally gave up on my search for amber. Quite a few branches are going purp as well, was not expecting it but il take it!

 

Buds have been drying for almost 5 days now. 4 days hanging, and yesterday i trimmed them and put them in brown paper bags to finish the dry. Way more yield than I expected I think. Note to self: less tops next time! Took me about 7 hours to trim it all. Smell profile is incredibly complex. Sweet, gummy, lemony smell with hints of diesel and almost garlic. 
 
What do y'all think?! And btw the pic with the lighter is only of the biggest tops, not the entire yield. 

 

Thanks for stopping in. Even without a cure and an incomplete dry its smoking and vaping pretty damn nice. And I took your advice on those Boveda 62 packs.. so tommorow will be 6 days drying and I will put em in the jars with the humidipaks.
 
Not sure yet. I have 6 seeds left of this Bio-chem, may run that unless I feel like manning up and dropping another hundred on some other genetics. Maybe something with a shorter flower period.. this was about a 4 month grow with the 13 weeks of 12/12. Not as quick as I;d like 

 

Once dried I yielded 0.92 grams per watt(calculated using actual power pull from the LEDs) if anyone's curious. Not bad

 

 
Actual pull from the LEDs is 135w a piece so I had a total of 270 actual watts running. Yield was 247.2gs or 8.8 zips.. Little over a half. And to think I was expecting 2 ounces lol

 

So after a few months of enjoying the yield, my appetite for growing, is growing. 
Planning on running a single plant this time in a 5 gallon hempy. Also thinking of switching nutrients this run, Botanicare was too damn expensive to run on a drip system. Thinking General Hydroponics unless I think of something else.
 
Hopefully get this next run going within a week or two!

 

 
Thanks Pat. I can't recommend the LEDs enough. Great yield with perfect density and incredible resin/trichrome production. Good luck on the grow, feel free to stop back in here and lemme know how your build goes!

 

 
That's awesome.. I love hearing about people using LEDs just because of the negative stimgma I feel is associated with them many times. Same exact LEDs as me, or just same wattage? Either way, good luck on the first grow. 
 
Moving forward, I planted a single seed today after 24 hours of it soaking in water. Pre-charged the coco with a little root enhancer(GH Rapid Start) and am ready to begin. I know I'm taking a risk by only popping one seed, especially since they're not feminized, but after getting 2 out of 3 girls last time, I don't think my chances are too bad B) 
 
I'll be updating again once she(wishful thinking) breaks ground 

 

 
I probably shouldve played it safe and gone with two
I would finish the flush with a feed, less of a shock to the plants I'd think
