Thanks guys, really appreciate the awesome comments.

Yeah thanks... But still, yours are gonna be epic! Not gonna look at mine tonight...
 
I insist that you go take a look at them. Then take photos. Then post them up, so I can admire that beautiful GTH and Choc-mint OG.
 
Nope. Gonna save up that growth.. Next update will pull them out; not expecting to have to water all, so they can sit and grow til tomorrow....
Or Sunday!

:lot-o-toke:
 
Girls are looking ready to rock my friend! ;)
 
OMG! Those girls are exploding Blaze! I'm so impressed! This is going to be super fun brother! I still remember those baseball bats of sticky goo covered colas. You've definitely done more training (bush like) this time and I can't wait to see if it pays off in weight. Stoked for you Blazer! :circle-of-love:

What are the biggest notables with the addition of the LED?
 
Thank you LA and Doc! I don't want to jinx it, but I think the extra light and topping is going to do the job. I also was a little more academic in choosing my strains this time round as well. I didn't just go for what ever struck my fancy. I chose strains that have the genetics and terpene profiles I like, but I also went for high yielding, medium sized plants. Let's see if it works out as intended.

The biggest difference I've seen with the LED lights, is a more even canopy and less stretch, but bushier plants. Now that they've started budding, they seem to be packing it on quick. When I looked in on them this morning, I could see a visible difference in flowers since last night. I've said this before, but I'm a very happy man.
 
Thank you Photos.

They were close on R6000 for the pair. They are 180w each. I set my ballast to SL so that is now running at 660w. All together, 1020w of mixed spectrum.

Lank Dank, I have no problem gifting you some seeds bud. Maybe we can meet at gthydro this saturday. You might get lucky and have an auto in there as well. I think I got about 8 free auto seeds and 6 free photoperioud seeds. Let me know if you keen.

Thanks Blaze Brother.I will definitely be in touch.

The EM Prosoil that you speak about contains a nice amount of cane sugar and mollases so you have been molassed all along.:goodjob:

Keep up the good work.You entering into the Fun part now:yummy:
 
I've noticed the same thing Blaze. LEDs are great at helping stop the stretch. I've got cannaballs below the skirt more than once! The lower dark nodes were better off removed lol. :Namaste:

So ready to flip mine when I get back from vacation. Hoping they are ready and healthy still when I get back! I've just been watching your journal on vacation and drooling.

Also I think my grow shows similar results that you discovered about the LEDs.
 
Making your space work hard for ya :) awesome job!

Thanks Assasin! I'm rooting for your grow. One of the better ones I'm following. I can't wait for you to flip them.

Cannaballs Doc? As in male bits? Is this something I need to watch for? Thanks

Hey brother DK, thanks for the kind words my man. Pity you are on the other side of the world. Wouldn't mind swapping some genetics with you.

They are blowing up Blaze, looks like you're hitting all the right points, we are in for a treat I think! :high-five:

Thanks man. I hope they turn out as good as yours.
 
Hey there blaze. I've found with growing bushes that somethings the lower darker areas that don't recieve any direct light are more prone to growing male parts. All I meant was that is better to remove most of the bottom 3rd of the vegetation. It helps the energy to go into the tops and removes those prone areas. Happy growing brother!

Ah yes... that makes perfect sense. Was planning on lollipopping anyway. So all good. Thanks for the heads up Doc.
