Looking good so far Doc. I want to sub to this grow early, as i have been thinking about the organics and LED as well but I have little space didn't know how well it would work.

What size tent is that?

Also it's great to see another PNW grower.

 

[greenadvocate]

lovely stuff, how many weeks into veg are they?... much dispute around here as to whether LEDs slow the rate of veg growth (want to disprove it once and for all)
All the Best

What is the benefit of 36 hours of darkness before flower? Never heard of that before.

I have the same tent. Did you get your LED from one of the sponsors here or somewhere else? It is hard to keep that tent at a good temp range with my 400W light in there.

Thanks Green!

It's a Hydroponics Hut PG240. Temps stay a couple degrees above room temp with good ventilation.

The theory is that the extended dark period before flower "jump starts" the flowering hormones. Not sure if this is true as I haven't came across any definitive studies, I'm just imitating from other journals I have followed.

Is that an older model? I couldn't find any info on it.

Grow Update Day 8 of 12/12

I picked up a cheap airpump and air stone to bubble my nute mixture before feeding. Fed BPN Farmers Pride transition with a teaspoon of molasses. After bubbling for 24 hours Ph of nutes and RO water came out at 6.4 so no ph up/down added.

Heres some Random shot's from this morning. I'm not seeing any signs of sex yet(sorry no bun porn). I'm hoping for a good bit of stretch canopy is at 8 inches, hopefully I didn't flip to early. This is my first photo period grow so I was concerned with headspace after the stretch.

 

[HomeMedGrower]

Thanks for that info, I wish I could swing that right now definitely something to look into.

Your plants look very nice. We should be harvesting about the same time.

Nice looking girls man if I can find some blue planet up my way I think a comparison grow between GH and BPN with my Flav run whenever that happens may be in order

 

[1970s Grower]

Very nice grow you have. I am jumping in for the ride.
