Thank you Sara and Mars Hydro for the contest and the new Pro II 400 led light. I'll journal the new light on my next grow. :Namaste:

Thanks for sharing your new light pictures with us :thanks:
Wait for your new journal :cheer:
 
Well, just a fast drive-by; This is what we got at the start of week two. They go 8+ weeks to finish, The strain is Puppies and are fed with Remo nutrients at 75% once a week, grown in Black Gold Soil amended with some organic goodies like blood/bone meal, EWC, batshit, and soft rock phosphates.

I can see differences in the plants' growth structure. Both these plants were the same height and build when I started the flip.
We have a Mars 1600 on one side, and a 1000 HPS on the other.

The transition should be over. BTW I did use a Cal/Mag+ Silicon, every other watering for the first two weeks when they stretch. Cal builds strong bones. And the Si gives it a tuff skin.


Hope all's gardens are doing great out there. Keepem Green

Very nice, NCW! :goodjob:

I suspect you'll see a slightly higher yield with the HPS since the Mars 1600 only draws about 630w; however, I also suspect you'll see healthier, more crystallized buds under the LED with the mixed spectrum. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out! :popcorn:
 
Will be interesting to compare at the end, I usually give leds the edge when it comes to bud quality. That's just based on my limited experience with both.

I am also interested in the final growing under HPS and leds, but this marsII1600 is only about 640W, I think its yield can not be as much as 1000W HPS.

I agree with you Mr. Krip :high-five:
 
Auto blue chopped at 72 days from seed under Mars lights. Anyone wanna guess the weight?

I kind of figured that in and I'm using an HPS bulb that has about 12 months solid on it.. To me,, I know I'm growing a small enough footprint both lights should be maxed?

I'm still on the fence. Way to early to tell shit yet.... And I do have them two, a Puppy/ Gelato in the dead center of the overlap. But those are going to be turned regularly.


Shara,,,wet or dry? Wet 90-100 grams wet,,,, give or take afew?
