New diarys starting!
This time Mars Hydro Sponsored me this somewhat new light! Featuring the right LED-Diodes!! Im super excited.
I got the FC3000 in the mail today, and started germinating 4 different strains.
Radical Juice
Watermelon Zkittlez X Bubba Kush
Karibbean Mango
Sugar Breath
I opened the package and put the lamp together, it was very easy and I didnt have to read the manual to be able to get it together!
This FC3000 differs from TSW2000 in that way, that it might be harder to storage it because one must take the driver off, using the green clickers, but it isnt that much to do, just an extra step.
This because the TSW2000 is pretty much all in the same package, with not so much to put together as this FC3000.. But it would be easy to have drivers outside grow tent, the cable was pretty long! Can recommend!!
Will setup the lamp in the tent during the next week while germination happens! Also seedlings will stay a few weeks inside in another grow tent to get started! Then they will move down to the garage, with the brand new FC 3000 😎
Thanks for following along on this epic journey to frostiness!! Fasten Seat Belts.

In a few days i know if i have got more winners, at this point im still germinating, trying to get them to raise their heads above soil level 😅
This is second germination try on this one, the first one didin't rise and was covered in mold
Had some problems germinating so Karibbean mango was changed for Zkittlez x Og Badazz
Here is now
Sugar Breath
Zkittlez x OgBadazz
Zkittlez x Bubba Kush
Radical Juice
Hanged up FC3000 in the tent wich is in the garage down, will update pictures of this later. What can be said about the lamp is that it is brighter than TSW2000, can't say how much but the spectre seems whiter & brighter. Also one could think that the airflow in the tent is now improved because this has air holes trough, the bars design!
Plants will still stay 2-3 weeks here in this smaller tent before transfering under FC 3000, im so excited 😄
---
Updating pictures, still not so exciting while they'r so small.. Will get more exciting when they move to the real tent 😎
This here is somewhat day 10, had germinating issues do to not planting at the correct time, checked the lunar calendar and the date i put seeds into soil was somewath the worst time one could try to germinate, should always consult lunar experts when starting a diary 😃. Also germinating is slower & harder during winter months
Week 2 of vegetation starting up
Everything has gone smooth, plants growing
Should try to take picture of the main tent this week or the next

Everything seems to grow okay, hopefully i get em moved down to the garage this week!
FC3000, has been on for a few days now and im very eager to get the plants under it!! Still need to adjust the height, they are pretty small so the lamps gonna stay far away during the first weeks.. Will be awesome to grow this time! Can't wait for the buds to start to show! Also Watermelon Zkittlez should taste superb! So lets hope everything goes well this spring!

Day 21: Plants moved down to the garage, Hopefully they florish! 😃
Week 4 / Day 28 of vegetation starting!
Will water plants tomorrow or the day after that, they seem to have drinked almoast everything from last weeks feed!
Setup:
Tent 80x80
Lamp Mars Hydro Fc 3000
Fan + ActiveCarbon filter
2X Magic Exhale c02 bags
This setup above im hoping to create real frostiness beneath 😏
Mars Fc 3000, Lamp has worked very well, lowered it to about 55-60cm from canopy and run it @ 100% instead of lowering lamp & dimming it! The lamp also seems brighter than TSW2000, i dont have any par meter but my gut tells me this because in the evenings when its dark im totally blinded if i look into the tent 😅, should use sunglasses!
Thanks for following along! Please hit Like button 😇

Day 29: Topped plants, will be somekind of mainline but mabye with 3 "levels", Let's see how it grows 😅
" topped after 3rd stair "
Week 5 of vegetation starting, day 35
Will water plants tomorrow or the day after that! Then its time to train everything, using LST(important to water first so everyhting is elastic).. Will be somekind of mainline but with many floors
Mars FC3000 Lights up plants really good, cant wait till we start flowering! Also the air in the tent seems to change more and everything is more evenly distributed.. It also feels abit birghter than TSW2000, really good light the plants love it 😊 and so do i! haha, Can't go wrong if you purchase it and switch out your old light for it!

Week 6 of vegetation starting!
Everyone seems to enjoy theyr stay under FC 3000, The lamp seems to be so far very awesome! Can reccomend, if you want to switch out your old blurple led or MH, this really would be a choice to recommend! These new quantum led's are very powerful! and gives what the plant needs! All real green and happy here under! Higly recommendable!
Watered plants yesterday, or the day before.. Will water about 2 times this week, they seem to start drinking faster! Also the warmer days of spring & sunshine is here so they really drink now!
Will use bio bloom when we start flowering! and as supplemental nutrients BigBud & Overdrive from AN.

Day 45: Defoliated plants, they seem to grow nice after the training, don't want to lst them down.. Think im just gonna let em grow for 3-4 weeks and then start blooming, ofcourse using defoliations so every part gets FC 3000 😃
Week 7 starting
Plants look happy'n healthy, some degrees warmer in the tent than last winters grow
FC 3000 Lights the place up, so far it has proven itself very good! Plants seem to love it and so do i!! IF you look for replacement for your old lighting system, look no further! This is good for 80x80 & 100x100cm tents! Could probably work in larger envirioments too! Also daisy chainable
Still 2-4 weeks of vegetation before blooming, let's see how they grow & What happens here!
Thanks for following along! please hit like!

Day 54, topped all tops

Day 61: Defloiated plants & reset timer, there was a few hours of power outtage this morning & lst trained plants
Flowering starting! Day 63 and i switched the timer yesterday! So first shorter morning today!
Mars FC 3000 Starting to soon show it's might! Will hang it down closer to budsites in a few weeks, let it stretch all it can for the next 3 weeks! So node lenght would be as long as it can, this also makes more space for the beginning budsites!
Hopefully the plants are LST trained wide now and we will get more bud out of these one
Thanks for following along! Please hit like!! 😎
---
Day 66: Watered plants, will start feeding additionally BigBud to them next week.. One plant seemed very thirsty this morning during picture taking!
Week 2 of flowering starting up
Can't wait till i get to try these, only like 10weeks left with drying and everything 😄
Fc3000 Will soon be lowered, just let the plants stretch 2 weeks and then it will find it's spot.. I think its hanged already pretty good, just wondering about how much the plants will strecth! Mabye there is no need to move it at all, just drop it a few centimeters! The lamp feels pretty powerful so far!
This week i will start giving plants BigBud as supplemental nutrient, so the evolving hairs will grow bigger!
Thanks for following along! Please hit like!!
Week 4 of bloom starting
Plants look liveful and healthy, soon will blooming start hairs already started to evolve
Mars Fc 3000 very nicely it has spread out the lighting in this tent, in a few weeks the buds have grown. Think with this light there will be much thrichomes, hopefully a few nice phenos also under it! in a few weeks i will know what the buds taste like
Thanks for following along! Please also tune in next week!!
Please leave a like!!
Dropped light 10cm
Week 4 of bloom has started, updated few days later due to travels!
Happy 420 to everybody! Was super day with extra treats 😎
FC 3000 Has already put some thrichomes, there are bud shots now of everyone! Will be exciting to se how the grow continues! After a few weeks there should be near ready flowers, TS 2000 made everything great and dense in the end, hopefully this one is as good or better than that 😇
Will continue to give plants extra supplement BigBud this week and then the next we will switch to Overdrive!
Thanks for following along! Please hit like!!
Week 5 of bloom starting up nicely! Plants look a bit dry but they just got watered 2h before the pictures
Fc 3000 seems to make everyone very thirchomy. Mabye not the best pheno of sugar breath as ive had some that look much better at this stage! Also the watermelon zkittlez looks pretty thirchomy, i havent grown that one before so this is a nice way to get to know the strain! Zkittlez x badazz looks real good, the northern light x badazz was also in a plesant way suprisingly good, lets hope this one is too! The Radical Juice also looks very good at this stage! Let's hope everything runs smooth till the end 😎
Switched BigBud to Overdrive this week! Still 2-3 weeks of nutrients and then they will recive only water for the last 2-3 weeks.. So end is in sight! Only like 5-6 weeks to wait 🙏
Thanks for following along! Pleae hit like!!
Week 6 of blooming starting up
Plants start to smell wonderful! Also this time with FC 3000 the plants are a bit more thrichomy than TSW 2000 at this stage, this means i can recommend this lamp very warmly! I think the finish product will be somewhat better than last crop i did with TSW 2000, if you are in doubt! Just purchase FC 3000 and you will be happy 😎
Radical juice starting to go purple, also watermelon zkitlez showing signs of purpeling! This is nice, last crop i didn't get any purple phenos
Still this and the next week with nutes, then i switch to only water as a flush to finish!
3-4 weeks left on this grow! Then the next one will begin, already hyped about the next.. And also these strains that currently are growing also gives me the kicks!! Watermelon zkittlez smells real peppery&pungent, Sugar Breath is pretty berrylichous!! Can't reach to smell the two in the back untill harvest
Thanks for following along! Please hit like!!
Week 7 of bloom starting
Everything looking pretty nice!
Sugar Breath started reciving only water as the rest of the bunch still have this week 7 as last feeding, think they will make it, i will make them do a flush so everything taste nice and smooth when finished
The 2 in the front i can smell, and here under is what they smell like!
Sugar Breath smells wonderful, also the other Watermelon Zkittlez X Bubba kush.. It smells like Ketchup & Spices, very intresting.. Mabye something from the grill! IF crossed with cheese this could be the ultimate Triple Cheesburger strain!!
FC 3000 Doing great job, i can already tell they will be very frosty! The samsung & osram leds are very good! Last time using the TS 3000 they got this thrichomy!! So i really recommend this led fixture!
Thanks for following along! Please hit like!
Week 8 of bloom starting up
Updated 2 days early because of travels..
Zkittlez X og badass smells pretty, almoast like some apple.. Also get a little reggiano feeling of the smell, hard to describe! Removed one bud that had been in toutch with the watering, also there was some dark spots on the small bud so i removed it!
Fc 3000 Really making everyone very thrichomy, its a really wonderful light for my small tent! Can warmly recommend this, if you buy it you probably wont be disapointed! 😀
Day 110 is Flower Day 47, so 49 would be the real start of week 8.. Lets see if im back for the weekend to take more pics!
Thanks for following along! Have a superb summer!! And press like!! 😎
Week 9 of blooming starting up
Everyone looks very nice and frosty at this time FC 3000 seems to really make em good looking!
Still hard to wait the last weeks are, i think maximum 3 weeks left
