Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

[Mars Hydro]

you like to develop new stuff,haha

Sure thing! Was actually wondering about sending out seeds to several 420 members. That way you can test much more genetics in a much shorter amount of time That way we could develop a strain together

i have to say the first pic is really beautiful....i like colorful things.haha

We want to develop a strain with purple flowers/leaves and covered in thick brown hairs.

Father:

Big-bud #3 - purple pheno

I have a bunch of clones of this one. Will use colloidal silver to reverse the sex on this plant and then fertilize the brown lady with it

White Widow #3 - Thick brown hairs pheno

You mean the Mars-hydro COB ? We will have this COB light at our USA warehouse around August,for other international warehouse around Sep

Other than being silent what are the advantages of the new light, are they more reliable or more light output for the wattage, and how many months is it likely to be till they are available

Number 10s got my vote.

Upps! Jack herer auto with nanners. guess we'll find a use for that pollen as well

 

[425jesse]

Nanners! Those sneaky little bastards.

 

[rikvasen]

I got to say, those photo's are awesome but my vote goes to number 9 though!

 

[Skullman420]

This contest is gonna give me a heart attack - So exiting

 

[Skullman420]

I just sprayed the Jack's with colloidal silver. Instead of freaking out over the nanners, let's encourage more and then use the pollen to pollinate a couple of strains. It's not a bad thing to get a little jack herer genes into the mix

 

[SnarlyWeed]

For the photo contest, please add my vote for #9.
Thanks

 

[SnarlyWeed]

Sara, please take a look at how many votes are from people with 1 or two posts. This smacks of some people trying to throw the contest.
I think you should follow the example of 420 contests, and require 50 posts for vote to count.

You may remember the plant. I grew it in January for the Mars-hydro cup. It's the most beautiful big-bud I ever have grown and I have grown many of them during the years. It's not the one with the highest yield - far from it. It's sister made a 60 gram cola, but still I picked this one for breeding. Some people may say that's stupid, but I tell you - yield is not everything. The smoke from this plant was much more potent than any other big-bud I have grown before. So that's something

Hi Sara I don't currently grow with a mars led but I'm very excited to see how well your lights work and want to swap over in the future here's some of my plants now imagine these under your mars led!

Hey Deville. I would totally take some of those seeds as well. I am interested in breeding and have the room. How many times did you have to back breed to get a stable version of Deville's widow. I agree that yield is not everything. Big bud is a big yielder anyway so I'm sure it wasn't pitiful. I like the idea of plants that are not only highly medicinal but beautiful to grow. I find that the growing has helped me as much as the medicine.

 

[Skullman420]

Wow - what a monster! How tall are these plants?

First generation will probably be all sorts of phenos. no idea how many generations it will take to stabilize the strain so the majority of the seeds create the plants we are looking for. We could also risk that non of the plants will have the traits we're looking for, but the more seeds we grow the bigger the chance of finding one. Then we need to breed that with itself to create a new generation with a little bit more stabile genes, and so on until at least 80% of the plants have the traits we want them to have.

I am very inexperienced when it comes to breeding. Been reading the theory, but never actually did it. So will do a lot of experiments the coming months. you can read all you want, but to truly understand something you need to actually do it in reality.

The yield on that plant were about 80 grams btw - that's completely untrained. Trained it would have yielded hmmmm. aprox 120-150 grams I guess.

The vert plants around the sea of green are around 2 metres tall the largest is over 2 metres .
The sea of green plants are around 1 m most importantly though they're all purps ! Can't wait till later in flower ,and can't wait to get a mars in there
,thankyou Deville

 

[Skullman420]

Big-bud is on the left side. In scrog it will yield a lot more Guessing this round of big-bud should be at least 300 grams

Are those mars 144 reflector, I have 2 192 reflectors I never knew how strong they were 980 watts is a lot more than I thought
