VanQ LED GLMX720 test

Hello folks :) I have grown for around 14years starting the HPS and last few years has been with quantum boards with the LM301h.Iam now testing a bunch of new stuff and would love to hear if you guys have any mthing you want to see tested :) I have made a new grow room and got a beautiful light to fully cover the growing space and give a perfectly even ppfd for optimum SCROG canopy. The light is dimmable and at 100% runs at 750w, but in this room will be run ~60%. The room is a small hobby 110cm x 130cm and everything painted with polyurethane. Blueberry OG moved under a SCROG in the back. And in the front 8-12plants of different strains (we will see how fast the growth is and how many plants will be needed to fill the canopy). (day 21 of veg). They have been topped and defoliated and flipped to flowering. They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 60%. In biobizz light mix in fabric pots. Fed greenhouse powder feed Any questions or suggestions I would love to answer. And only left to say is thank you for your attention and lets see how this goes together :D

Hello again  I forgot to mention there was a catastrophic fan failure and that is why the leaves looked so damaged on the last photos. Now 7 days into flowering leaves are looking a lot better and they doubled in size  Some people might think the setup is something strange. But the grow is to keep height minimized to make a vertical grow. And that should be possible with a SCROG and/or early flowering. The light is almost impossible to overdo with good ventilation to bring in fresh CO2, so as long as temperature and humidity is kept everything should be fine. Any questions or discussions please comment   They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 80%.

Hello   Now we are at week 2 since start of flowering (12/12). For some strange reason the Purple Punch and Pineapple Express #2 from seeds are flowering very slowly and have now just begun showing flowers after 2 weeks of 12/12, but the Blueberry OG from motherplant is flowering beautifully. This might be because i know the Blueberry OG much better and can cater to its needs better. Or there is some truth to photoperiods flowering is affected by the age of the plant - will be interesting to make a "mono-crop" run with cuttings from one of these individuals in the future. They were defoliated in week 1 and will be defoliated again tomorrow (should have been a few days ago in my book, but i was busy  )   They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 90%.

Hello   Now we are at week 3 since start of flowering (12/12). So still the Blueberry OG is kicking ass and the Purple and Pineapple Express #2 are behind, but have finally started flowering and the stretch is finished i believed. They will be 5-8weeks longer in flowering for a total of 8-11weeks flowering.  Now just time to gain some weight They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 80% (680W) Humidity in the 50-60% range and day temps around 29C and night 21C.

Hello   Now we are at week 4 since start of flowering (12/12). ​​​​​​​Same ole same ole  Blueberry OG still awesome, but finally the rest have started flowering and showing some phenotypes - quite chuffed about the dark purple one. Now just time for some swelling of the buds - what do you guys use to fill in the buds?  They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 80% (680W) Humidity in the 60-70% range and day temps around 30C and night 23C. (heat wave and heavy rains - the ventilation cannot keep up - yikes) In biobizz light mix in fabric pots.

Hello   Now we are at week 5 since start of flowering (12/12). Blueberry OG is great, it might only be 2weeks more (i have stopped feeding) and the Purple Punch and Pineapple Express #2 is probably 4weeks more, maybe one or two phenotypes abit earlier. Time to feed abit of molasses - tho i believe the effect is minimal in an conventional grow like this compared to an organic with many microorganisms. They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 80% (680W) Humidity in the 60-70% range and day temps around 29C and night 21C. (the weather has been fluctuating like crazy lately) In biobizz light mix in fabric pots. Fed greenhouse powder feed short flowering, PK booster, Silicate powder and some CaSO4  Kind Regards

Hello Now we are at week 6 (day 42) since start of flowering (12/12). Blueberry OG has been harvested, and the Purple Punch and Pineapple Express #2 is probably gonna be 3weeks more. The Blueberry OG was harvested early because i had two nights with 85% RH before i could get a dehumidifier, Anyways the rest of the plants looks fine and will be fire harvest in a few weeks. The crazy wet and hot summer combined with the dehumidifier is really heating the rooms tho :( A bit stressed this week i am sorry, next week i will make a better update with some nice bud shots hopefully. They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 80% (680W) Humidity was 70-85% for a few days, but now is 40-60% range and day temps around 32C and night 23C. In biobizz light mix in fabric pots.

This blueberry OG only took up about 40% of the growroom area and was harvest two weeks too early due to problems with high humidity and a bit of mold was sadly found in the final flower. I have an organic run monocrop going with the blueberry OG and hope to share the results from that in another diary. Thank you for reading

Hello :) Now we are at week 7 since start of flowering (12/12). Now only the Purple Punch and Pineapple Express #2 left. The phenotypes are becoming really obvious, and to me they dont even seem the same strain - such a huge variety. For now it is difficult to get pictures of the buds as the room is totally filled in. Anyways when i harvest next week or the week after that i will show the all and individuals under the light - hopefully they put on a lot of weight and color in this last week or two. They are under the VanQ GLMX720 LED run at 80% (680W) Humidity in the 50-60% range and day temps around 32C and night 23 (the dehumidifier is heating the room a bit more then i like, but plants seem fine).

Really got a beautiful fade this last week with no fertilizers :) Iam pulling the plug on this one, maybe a few days or one week early, but i think the buds are still nice. At least i will be able to start flowering a monocrop of Blueberry OG faster :D Im gonna try and reveg one phenotype of each Purple Punch (beautiful color) and Pineapple Express #2 (big yield). So this is it, in two weeks i hope to a harvet post with yield and bud shots

This strain disappointed a bit, but iam keeping the purple pheno because it was so pretty and mold resistant maybe also due to the smaller bud size.

So this pineapple express was quite nice, but next few runs will be some different strains, but iam gonna keep that one pineapple express mother on the back burner :D
