OK, so I am going to be doing this at least through the veg stage and possibly into flower depending on if I like what I see.. I will be using the proycon 100 which I think is a upper mid level LED. I picked Bubble gum and Dream Weaver to be my guinea pigs. The two seeds broke ground on 9/28. I had the lght around 12" above the plant and noticed the DW stretching so on 9/30 I dropped the light down 4" and will see if it stops it. Any questions about the light should be googled as I don't know shit about it except that it is bright as hell.. The GF sings out "Viva Las Vegas" everytime she walks by the bathroom, think the light reminds her of Vegas.... They are in the bathroom until I finsh the new grow rooms. Ok, a few pics @day 3 or 4.. I think it is me and not the light that is off.. WAKE and BAKE!!!! Red pot=Bubble Gum Green=Dream Weaver.

That's way cool, BE! If LED technology can be perfected, it would change everything.

I've read about that LED lamp you have there and it's suppose to be one of the best. I hope you have good results with it. Even if you have to move to the HIDs at some point, it can still be very useful. Just think of all the power you can save, not to mention the heat issues one normally deals with.

Best of Luck!!

Sweet I will be following this. Always wanted to see how good the leds are. You keep good grow journals so this should be great!!

Good luck with the new tech

Thanks for the interest guys and gals... Well, things seem to be coming along slowly. They have not grown height wise in the last few days. It seems like all their energy is going to spitting out the second set of leaves...I brought the light up to ten inches to see what happens..I think I am going to transplant into one gallon pots here soon. I would like to take a peek at the roots and see how they are looking.. So here is a few pics of them on day 7.

I am going to do my best and hang in there to see this through, but it is killing me how slow they are growing and it's only been a week..:thedoubletake::peace:

I know one thing for sure.If anyone can make this an outstanding grow,"after reading your journals",it's you!Good luck. }:-)
 
Re: VIVA LAS VEGAS!! Procyon 100 LED grow test

Man I am jealous. I've been waiting for my Procyon for over a month. They are back ordered at all the places that sell them. I'm supposed to get it this week. Hope you are enjoying it. My friend uses one and just loves it for vegging. It saves so much $$$$. Can't wait to see more updated pics. Are you doing the whole grow under the Procyon?

Re: VIVA LAS VEGAS!! Procyon 100 LED grow test

Thanks you all.. Keep sending good vibes this way... :ganjamon: I transplanted them iinto 1 gal pots yesterday. The second set of true leaves is in Finally.. The light is eight inches abouve the plants may go to 10 or 12 to get a little growth out of them. Stems are still skinny, I even turned the fan up to medium...Ok so a few pics on day 9-

Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome..:peace:
Kara, they sell out much faster then they can make them.. I got this in hopes that it could fuel my veg room and that I would'nt have to get another light. If they are going good through veg. I will try to flower them under the LED just to see what happens..I am waiting patiently for a growth spurt....
 
Re: VIVA LAS VEGAS!! Procyon 100 LED grow test

I could probably set it right on top of them. I am going to try out some different heights. I will drop them down to about four inches and see what happens.:peace:
 
Re: VIVA LAS VEGAS!! Procyon 100 LED grow test

My grow seemed like that took off slow also, I was waiting for them to grow like they took Viagra, it took a little bit before they took off. They'll take off like a rocket shortly!! Looking Good!
 
Re: VIVA LAS VEGAS!! Procyon 100 LED grow test

Thanks Florida, I have always used HIDs and have never had one takes its time like this.. I dropped the light down to three inches off the top of them, temp stayed in the low 80's. When I checked on them in the A.M. their leaves were sticking straight up towards the light. Is that good or bad? It reminds me of my outdoor plants reaching for the sun... Day 11
