So this is my first grow ever so obviously first harvest. I have 3 autos all from canuks seeds. Zkittles which is still in the tent. Amnesia that I cut down last Friday and put in jars today. And gelato which I cut down today and is now hanging. So far for my first grow and knowing nothing about it I feel I’ve done alright. Haven’t really gotten to try it so it could still be total poop. I hope not!! So amnesia got stunted pretty bad early on, turn into the runt of the liter. From dirt to tip it was only maybe 8” tall but stout. I hung it whole for 7 days at 70F and 50% humidity and dry trimmed after. Final weight after dry trim was 32 grams. I’m sure it will probably lose a little more during cure. So next up was gelato. I decided to try wet trimming this one due to it being a good amount larger and bushier. I’ve been back and forth on the plant the whole grow. The plant was much larger then amnesia but the buds weren’t as dense. Being my first grow I was honestly surprised at how much they shrink in drying. Hopefully this one doesn’t shrink up to much cause there are some nice buds right now. All plants were grown under a single 1000watt phlizon led. Says 240 actual watts but there are fans and stuff so I’m sure less then that. Plants directly into 3gal pots from seed in soil and perlite. Today would be day 79 from seed. Tell me what you think. So far I’m happy with everything I’ve learned and continuing to learn. Now for some pics. Amnesia Gelato Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Looks good man. If you enjoyed yourself I'd call it a success. Now let's start saving for some better lighting. Lol
Already ordered. I have 4 of these kits on the way. Wholesale Kingbrite quantum board qb288 v3 240W lm301h with epistar red 660 led grow light with separate radiator From m.alibaba.com Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yup. Really wish I would have found this forum before I started. Would have never gotten this eBay light to start with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Don't feel bad most of us have one under the bed or put away somewhere. Getting your space tuned in is a journey that takes time and experience. Did you order a lux meter? Being able to measure your light levels and set them appropriately is key to getting the most out of your lights
Haven’t ordered one yet but I will 100% have one when the lights get here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Here's the one most of us use. Not all lux meters can read LEDs Dr.Meter LX1330B Digital Illuminance/Light Meter, 0 - 200,000 Lux Luxmeter
Pat yourself on the back for at least getting to the end on your first grow. I see you had a journal to write in , give you props for that. Every grow will get better as long as you keep that journal going and critique things along the way. The first successful critiquing you did was change out your lighting. You had some good size nugs good job.
