    Here is the current light setup

  2. On those LED bulbs take off the plastic things covering the diodes those are also more like ~15 true watts not 100w, that LED grow panel is not 150 watts it is ~50w true power, the CFL is the wrong spectrum for veg but can work, and Incandescent lights are worthless in growing wasted wattage.
    I am not bashing you I am letting you know what you got wrong so I can help.
    You can still grow respectable plants with the the UFO, 2 55w CFLs, and the 2 15w led bulbs.
     
  3. Well thanks for focusing all on that :) Now.... how do the plants look? (Which is the main reason for the journal)
     
  4. Also PS any extra light is worth the wattage..... Light is light, less light is less light. If you need light then more light no matter how minuscule will help.. Also for the case of my wattages, the UFO is certified for 150 true watts and a mixed spectrum, and I have a mixture of daylight and warm light. I like to mix it up for my grows. This is my 3rd run in this setup. Hopefully they are some nice ladies with nice smoke. The last grow was sweet and smooth smoke :love-mj:

    A couple of them looking low on cal mag and/or potassium . Keep that CFL 3-5" inch close in veg ~2 in flower. What brand is that UFO, I might be interested in it if it is 150w?
     
  6. Yea I noticed as well so I gave them some cal mag in last watering. Good eye
    Also I will try to lower CFL's and the UFO was made by a buddy of mines. He makes led grow lights in my town.

  7. Man I must be fucking blind I didn't notice the black light is that what you are calling incandescent? If so it is only there for show since its a black light it gives literally no useful light, It is a fluorescent black light.
     
  8. Lol it is not a black light. It is 6500k incandescent. And minimum but some light will reach. Hopefully

  9. The growth is vigorous and they are looking lovely. No sign of any deficiencies, no unusual leafs, and I count 12 tops per plant which also have smaller tops growing along the sides of them. Hopefully they are ladies (fingers crossed)

    Here are both plants

    Here is plant 1

  10. Here is an update on the hopefully both girls

    Switched them to flower on the 7th of Feb

    Here is the first

    Top Shot

    It's A GIRL!!

    If you did not know this is my 3rd grow. First grow was 1 plant and it was a full blown male. The second one started out male, but hermied 2 weeks into flower and female parts shot from everywhere. I finished it off and got 26g of smokable bud so it was worth. Even though there were a few seeds

    So having a female is ecstatic for me

    Here is the other hopeful girl that has yet to show its sex. This is the bigger of the 2. It is about 4-5 inches taller.

    [​IMG]

    Here is a top shot.

    [​IMG]

    Still no sex showing

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]


    They are looking nice though :)

    [​IMG]

    If you notice anything wrong with them please tell me :)

    I am currently feeding them fox farm trio mix, along with a molasses and water mix in between mute feeding and straight water feedings. Feeding every day and a half to two days.

  11. So today I got another 150 watt led light so each can have their own since they are getting pretty bushy. I want to get as much light on all these new tops. I am also training and bending the leaves to let more light down. I did prune some of the larger fan leaves to let light through the canopy. I also tried out lollipopping so the lower half is pretty empty.

    [​IMG]

    Here is what the lower half looks like

    [​IMG]

    One of them still has not shown sex and it is 9 days since switch. Hopefully it shows soon. I am getting worried
    [​IMG]

    The other one is shooting pistols from everywhere

  12. Both are girls first off!!!!

    Next I started them under their scrip net for when they stretch during early flower.

    This was made with 2 wooden garden stakes and a trellis made from some type of string I found in the garden section of Home Depot. Total was about $6

    [​IMG]

    Here is the plant that went into flower first. It is doing well, and started them both of their bloom boosting nutes along with molasses feedings in between nute day and water day.

    [​IMG]

    Today is molasses day!


    Here is the plant that went into flower last. It is also the bigger of the 2

    Gave the ladies a light deleafing a few days ago. Girl 1 has recovered fully and is plumping up her buds nicely

    [​IMG]

    Her lower buds are ok. A little fluffy

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Girl 2 is still staggering in her bud production. But she did show her flowers almost a week after the first one. So I'd say she is a week behind in production.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Even her lower buds are developing nicely. Well the ones I did not lollipop away
