Took a bit of doing, but I'm all caught up, Rae. Lol
You guys like that dirt stuff, but I lean towards coco. Takes a lot of the mystery out of the whole watering thing and feeding schedule, but that's just me.
Love you girls, Rae! I picked up on you in Beast's auto-topping post. Lovethat LSD - 25!! I'm close to starting 8 of them, myself. I'm thrilled you went to LEDs! I bought one in Nov. 2014. A 300wt. 'can't name' light for my first ever attempt at indoor growing. It was a rollercoaster ride, to say the least. I now have 12. lol I couldn't grow indoors with HPS. Just too hard to fight the heat for me. You found that out too.
I see most of the guys here like to keep their lights fairly high. I kinda don't. I keep the lights as low as they can be and still cover the base. The buds explode. Here is a Critical Sensi Star I have in a tiny 20"X32" cabinet with my first LED (300wt.). The light did get hit a little hard on this one, but it hasn't suffered anything more than a couple bleached spots on two or three top fans. The light has been maybe 6" - 8" away from the highest cola for all its life :
I'm really looking forward to seeing you grow through to a fantastic end, bud!! It's a long, strange ride you're on!!
