First Ever SCROG (Kinda) with 600w GrowLedHydro

[Green Utopia]

Great looking plants.

As far as when to chop - yep go for 50% amber.

Especially first time. It will be nearly impossible for you to go too long. They will look finished. When you think they look finished - WAIT ANOTHER WEEK!

They put on sooooooooo much weight and quality right at the end. I was just looking at another journal and he has great healthy plants, big huge ones, and he just harvested about two weeks early in my opinion. I think he cost himself ounces of yield and a much better high.

Enjoy the wait, and I promise at the end when you think they're done, if you wait, the growth spurt at the end makes all the other growth look petty. The REAL last week is soooooo worth the wait.


Great stuff man. Live it. Love it.

couldn't have said it better. best rule ever if you think their done wait a week. get a 30x scope and look at your tricomes when their 50% amber then their done. their is no way that jack is gonna be done at 60 days IMO. thats the strain you dont want to pull early she will fatten up big time at the end if you just wait

i assume the jack is gonna take a while yet ... the good thing is I have another 11 in the veg closet almost ready to go into the tent... 8 soma diesel, 2 godbuds, and another jack (god and jack from these plants in the photos).

Im patient ... i still have a truckload of meds to inhale in the meantime lol.

lastly ... I appreciate the advice ... i changed the res again and backed down about 10% on the nutes and think i have found the sweetspot ... no more burned leaf tips...

Just the difference from yesterday to today in weight gain is dramatic ..and the scent ...oh the scent haha! YEEEEEES

so yeah ..i see what you mean in gaining size in the last weeks.

Have you checked the trics on them?

Have you checked the trics on them?

yeah ..one of the godbuds and the diesel are starting to turn amber ...just barely though.

this jack is mega-packed with trichs ..and i mean wow packed ..and am greatful i managed to get some clones from it. gonna be winner for a long while!

some delays with the LED lights may force me to use HPS bulbs on my "big" grow. Shit happens sometimes ... but delays are never good ..especially when you have a good bit of time and effort into raising clones and seedlings to the proper size ..and only have a small window to get them started with correct lighting for the end time to be correct ya know.

You think it's adding to the flower time with glh's unit? I had found it to work better than the others at this point . Irish what's your take? Hope it all works out though bro ! They are beautiful!!

Go-

no ..i dont think its adding to the flower time honestly ... but my next grow (which is already going) was designed with LED in mind. Unfortunately there are delays in that supply chain for one reason or another so I'm guessing Ill use 2 1000w standard lights instead.

Ive already fimd my next round of ladies ..and don't really want to do it again until i get them under a screen. I cant put them under a screen until I have lights ..and within a week or so they will be too big to fit under the screen.

I hope the supply issue gets worked out with LED lights ...30 days wait is not good.

 

[go green]

Ohhhhhhhhh!!! I got ya!! Yeah...what's with supply at the moment ? Good things come to those that wait! LOL foe what it's worth anyway.

Can't wait for more updates bro! Loving it!!

Go

 

[NuhNugz]

I dunno whats up. I think sometimes small companies try to finance future growth/sales with todays sales. Also ... LED lights are in short supply at the moment for everything. Either way ... 30+ days is too long. A couple weeks is ok IMHO.

GottA consider hella orders coming in all at once, plus consider any economic issues going on on the country of origin. Many factors may be at hand.

Mike, can you fill us in as to the reason(s) for back orders?


I just ordered a 600, I have nothing but time tho.

I think the wait will be worth it., though it's understandable if you and others are working in a tight time frame.

How's the grow nu?

Go-

I can tell you why! Mike gets big orders and the Chinese take their sweet time on making the lights since their all customize made with the 3w leds. at least thats what i was told.
It all up to the Chinese malf, when he gets the lights

Alohas NuhNugz! Just saw a ref to your journal from Irishboy and had to drop in.

I just read your thread and I'm liking the results. Ballsy going with such a wide diverse group of plants! I find it's interesting to see how the ladies are vying for your attention with their aromatic temptations.

I always wanted to grow inside and based on the test results I've seen here at 420, the lights in the mail. Soon I'll be receiving a 180w (tanks Mike) and expanding my hobby.

LEDs are the shite. I'm getting antsy thinking about it.

Anyways, very nice grow!

Question: Of these strains, any becoming a LED favorite?

Peace

Go-

Well Basically I get the orders and then send them to my manufacturer and with the profit I order more lights and by the time that comes in all the extra lights are sold and Im already submitting two to three more orders, so the factory gets backed up and in turn so do I. It already takes two to three weeks to get the panels and with the orders I keep submitting, its just basically a cycle thats started that Im trying to catch up with.

I truly, truly apologize for the long waits I really am trying my best to take care of this problem. The plan is in about 4 to 6 weeks I will have a full inventory of my panels and will be offering shipping withing 24 hours of your order, excluding people who pay by check, money order and cashiers check, thats a couple day wait automatically but as soon as they payment clears I will ship the order within 24 hours.

Anyway thats where im at.. thanks nugs for posting your results with us cant wait to see the finished product..

flowering day:

and of course some good ol bud porn.

Mikes lights are excellent judging by these photos and the yumyum scent coming from my garden of ganj. I hope they get the LED manufacturing worked out and the supplies caught up with demand because everyone can obviously benefit from one of these lights ...or more than one i guess.

this one is so heavy its starting to fall over lol

 

[dogsnova]

Awesome my friend...

 

[NuhNugz]

these should be ready pretty soon. i would guess in less than 2 weeks. I just changed the res and backed off the nutes 25% again. Next week will be another 25% and hten 3 days of PH 5.9 water with sweet.

 

[GrowLEDHydro]

wow! Beautiful nugs, Nugz... Hey the second pic down what strain is that?? Its crazy how really different the strains are and look.. good job!

 

[dogsnova]

looks like some good smoke..

 

[go green]

Bad ass stuff nu!! Thanks for clearing things up mike. No worries , we know you are in a position of no control over your manufacturing process and issues.

Can't wait!!!

Keep those pic coming nu!!

-go

 

[IrishBoy]

yup another case of these lights making some buds full of resin. Man i can wait until i harvest my next crop. i love these buds just getting packed with resin. I also know that you leave the lights on in the pics so i could only imagine how frosty they are with the light off. wait until after the few weeks and see what they will look like

great job.
