Till I can order the Cree128, these 4 270w UFOs will have to do. Plus I wanna see if they will work in my autos tent.
 
Looks nice under that velvet light. I do not want to hijack this thread but here is what I am using and thinking of upgrading. Its in a 4x4 closet. Here is a few shots of late week 6 flower.

Nice but if I hang any more CFL's it gets hot.

Not bad for a T5, but HPS takes the cake (my other grow) with bud frost and plant maturity. I'm happy with it for what it does but when I see what I could have grown it hurts. I have read about this setup (Mars II) on Amazon and it states that there are some 420 members using the 1200W for results and that got my attention.

It's still good to see them in action. I was suspect of T5HO's until I saw there results. My LED issues are light intensity. It's hard to beat an HPS in output. And while spectrum is important, amount of FFPD is what yields. If I'm wrong I'll believe it because I saw it here.

Theres my sunrise starting up all red.

I've maxed out the space, so if you think the LED is way too close, your right. But the plant is on the ground and the light is as high as I can go with the steel cables.

Worst case scenario, she will start to hermie and i'll do a quick flush and harvest before. The rest of the plants going forward won't reach as big, so lets see how tough this girl really is.
 
Hi Canad420,

With your big buds that close to the powerful LED's and still a few weeks out from harvest you may end up bleaching those top buds. I've had good luck bending the top bud at a 90 degree angle and taping them if they break. It doesn't seem to slow down the budding but it saves it from getting bleached. Looking great C.

I had to do the same thing. Massage your stem and bend them away from the light.

So I have been a little busy. I'll post some updated photos here tonight. The light is doing great. Buds on the Amnesia Lemon are getting nice and fat and continue to produce new white hairs. She comes down in 3 weeks from now. There has been no more heat issues and the leaves that got a little toasted by the HPS haven't gotten any worse, and no signs of her turning hermie!

As for the Grape OGs in veg. I did a big defoliation on all 3. I'll try to even out the canopy as best as I can before they flip over to flowering.

Popcorn

I'll have to get a better camera one of these days. She is so frosty.
I trimmed off most of the tiny popcorn buds that were just sitting at the trunk of the plant (48 grams wet). Gonna see if I can get a little early taste for the new year. I even washed my popcorn buds lol.

My goal for her was 8 OZs. I hope I get close.
3 Weeks till chop

These UFOs do so well at vegging, that I think I'll stick the Cree128 into the Autos tent, and get another one later down the road for veg. Well 2 weeks till these girls flip to flowering.
 
Happy New Year!:partyboy::party::partyboy:

These ladies are out of control with growth. I'm going to give them a good defoliation, and stick on the scrog rings as best I can. In just 11 days they will flip, and Amnesia Lemon is chopped. The flush starts tomorrow.
