Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great weekend and happy father's day to all the dads. The Strawberry Banana is almost done stacking and almost heading to the ripening phase. I did raise her up on a 10 inch milk crate last week to ensure all plants have an even canopy. She is really starting to smell very strong, I definitely smell both strawberry and banana's on my fingers after working with her.
currently have the Spectrum X running at 100% power and have upped the time on the UV/IR bars to 90 minutes just prior to lights off. I am super happy with this light so far, she puts out impressive PAR, and runs fairly cool. The only thing I would change is to have individual timers for the different spectrums. I did hear they sell a timer that does this but it does cost 0.
Not much to do this week other than keep the reservoir full and in the correct PH range. The tomatoes outside are absolutely loving the runoff from these autos, as that is all they have had to drink since they were about 3 weeks old.
Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! ๐ช

@Tweezer, This is going to be my first run with , and I've been easing up on the alloted time , I'm almost 4 weeks in and I'm around 1hr15 min on... I'm not using the IR just the UV .... IR will come later in the grow as I don't want any extra stretching ๐ So far so good , but it may take a few runs to see if ive gain any real benefits ๐ Happy Growing
@Tropicannibis_Todd, Hey brother, thats alot of Strawberry in your garden.....I see you are growing with the Mars Hydro UR45 UV/IR bar, have you completed any runs with it so far? This is my first run with supplemental UV/IR lighting and I am super excited to see the results.....How many hours are you running it per day?
Ahhhh I seen this light. It has a cool LCD display. Aswel as by itself functional IR? Medicgrow look good. Hopefully soon they'll break into the EU? @MedicGrow
@gottagrowsometime, First time ever running any of their products so I can't say much other than all the reviews I read are very good. I will have a much better update here in a couple months.....No way to run the UV/IR lights solo though if that is what you were asking....
One of my favourites from FB, Heather send me some, so ill do forest run with 9 of them.
Personally think, for me - its most tastiest strain from FB range.
I would not give it to a friend ;))))
@Tweezer, it was a good yield for me also from my memory. I've got a few autos that need to be done, first I need to get a veg tent setup. I'll use that for autos and veging.
@Wyregrasser, Thanks brother, I started out with autos, then I grew a couple of photo mainlines, I have gotten decent results with both, I like building mainlines out of photos, but autos have come a long way.....
Wonderful setup and plants bro.
It was my first grow, the only one survivor in that run of 3, and she has been good and prized me of all the love I gave her and her unlucky sisters. Quite tasty indeed, produced much and good.And it hit quite nicely. Good luck on you grows mate! peace
