@LouShott, Hello, my tent is an Hydroshoot 80(secret jardin) - so 80x80x160cm (31inchx31inchx62inch). The light is an viparspectra 300w, pulls 136watt +/- 3% from the wall. 👌 This is done on the cheap, I am very satisfied with the 80 dollar light for sure. ;)

I have broke many branch's. If you tape the break they will be fine 90% of the time. Shes nice looking tho. It looks like she is done stretching.

@Varkhond, i have one of my mains taped right now i snapped it bad while trying to tie it up and the tape really helps the wound from drying out before it can heal itself. The plant is looking real good be patient and youll be surprised how good itll finish. Good luck

@Mrs_Larimar, got any ideas on maybe make the tent longer with some tubing or something? xD i got very little funds atm for anything expensive. The tent cutout of bottom and extention need to be robust ofc. :P but yeah im afraid so.. between 15-19 8 cm, and before that the daily medium has been 4 cm for a few days a day to.. I wish i bought the 200 cm type tent.. :P

Mrs_Larimarcommented6 years ago

@Varkhond, She will grow more during the Flower (very possible) I think you got to build a bigger growspace for her.... She is a very nice healthy plant and she will be grateful to you

@JerMeds,Ty, i am almost at week two with my 3 new plants in 8 liter, i will try to make a diary of those in here if my camera start working again xD 2 acop 1 bcn critical, bit leca in the medium this time around else equal cocomix. 1 acop was not sprouted 10 days ago when i put all 3 in the pots, she just came up today so indeed 3 critical plants this run <3 EDIT: I live in a drafty loft, i am pretty much 100% sure my fresh air supply is doing me much good. :P No old farts or smoke being sucked into the tent for sure..

JerMedscommented6 years ago

@Varkhond, Awesome I'm looking for a strong Critical bud, that's why I got these seeds. Cant wait to start growing them. Well that LED light and your growing skills work great together. I will be following your next grows for sure.

@JerMeds, Thank you, and very strong smoke. :) :P I am using this light https://www.viparspectra.com/goods.php?id=61 :) Im often dreaming about some of the new models out there that advertice mad g/w but I think this one is doing well for the price and watt cost. :) *(viparspectra 300w, real use about 136w) .

JerMedscommented6 years ago

@Varkhond, Awesome thanks. Very nice I will follow along once the diary's go live. I have a full grow room right now but my next grows are going to be. O.G. Kush Auto by Seed Stockers and Auto Critical Orange Punch. Maybe 6 of each I'm not sure yet. I have some other strains I could grow also.

How much time did the seeds take to sprout? Cause I'm worried about the fact that it's already two days that I'm waiting. Is it normal?

@galbia00,Hm try wait the weekend over and then decide monday? I have tried seeds that didnt sprout to, if it does not sprout try look for the seed and see. :) How deep did you make the hole for the seed? Crossing my fingers. :D

galbia00commented6 years ago

@Varkhond,Exactly today is the 5th day that I'm waiting, anyway I'm keeping it always dark and moist

Varkhondcommented6 years ago

@Varkhond, i have played about with lst a couple of times but i am a novice myself lol. Yeah follow along mate, im following yours! im planning on doing my best but i am worried it might get out of control quickly, my box is 100cm tall by 80cm x 60cm so not a lot of room for such a xxl strain. I also have a camera set up now so there will be some cool time-lapse vids in a couple of days. Check out this diary i found, this is what im aiming for 😬. growdiaries.com/diaries/4181-the-ductir-is-in/week/21115

@LouShott, will follow you :D If you can lst i can learn alot, as i am an total wuss when it comes to that.. But her top was 110cm and the pot is 20cm and the light is 7.5cm plus 5 cm of breathing room and 30cm space from light to plant = ouch. :p I had my plant 5 - < 5 cm from maincola several times because she grew so fast in spurts... :p If you look at my plants earlier weeks you can see i was kinda stressed out by the slow start, but now i figured out that bigger container slows down inizial spurts alot but i also heard that around 7 gallon is the ideal pot size for xxl autostrains from dutch passion!

Kaya666commentedweek 126 years ago

Thanks for including a screenshot of the exact lighting system you used along with the price. Very helpful. This will probably be my next upgrade thanks to you. 👍

Next grow you should definitely consider some LST or SCROG. I have a 100cm tent, 15cm high airpot, same LEDs + an air filter in tent and I fitted a beast inside last time. Be4 I chopped her down the colas were less than 5cm from LEDs and without burn, they was a bit dry that's true, but nothing serious. I personally hanged the light using the wires they came with, straight on the construction of tent and that way I got 5cm spare. Personaly i think she wont grow more than another 10-15 cm. Good luck mate
