May 19. I have started the germination process yesterday, the 18th. I am sprouting 2 Afghan kush ryders. Day 3 (10 days after seeds were thrown in soil) Ladies are looking alright. distilled water ph'd to 6.5. moved things around a bit so my grow room looks a bit cleaner and more organized. :) Day 4 Watered with distilled water, forgot to PH but im sure its high 6 around 7. not the greatest but itll do. :D Day 6 Watered with nutes and lowered the lights a little. probably around 18 or 19 inches. Day 7 Light mist and kept an eye on them. not much to do but wait. :D

Day 8 Lowered the lights to 14 inches to see how close i am able to put them without burning. Going to water them tomorrow so theres that too. temps and humidity were good. cant wait for these to start stretching out. Day 9 Raised lights, but putting them close for a day did not affect them as much. cool 🙌 ... and I may have watered them today lol Day 12 watered my babies. not much to report. stay tuned!!!!

Hi @indacouch! A lamp pulling 615 watts from the wall is a 615 watts lamp, no "equivalent" or "efficiency" here, only raw wattage matters, everything else is a lie. You should look for "QuantumBoards", these panels rely on Samsung mid power LED (lm561c or even better lm301b) which are the new big thing in the growing industry. These are probably the most effective grow lights onto the market nowadays. Growers with good coverage usually get more than 1g/w. The drivers are dimmable, so you can control your light power (and your electricity bill). They're usually dimmed at 25-50% during veg stage and 75-100% during flowering stage, depending on the driver's power capacity and the size of the board(s). If you cannot afford the official QuantumBoard from HLG, you can try to go DIY, many companies are selling the same boards they use at HLG. I got my boards from "InvisibleSunLed". Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Day 22 update! Started week 4 today. Gave her a good watering, nothing crazy. 800 ppm. She can handle higher which is good. Love these girls. Pretty much grow themselves? I need more meters to check my co2 levels and maybe even a par meter for my lights. A fellow grower mentioned them and also some lights. Will do more research! Have an awesome week ladys and gents. Day 24. Girls are really taking off now. Gave them a good watering. 1900 ppm mixture. Next will be a flush to start week 5 gooefully week 1 of flower? I thought i saw a few signs of females.

Day 58 Watered these girls with some molasses and tap water. seeing a bit of a difference. I enjoy this experience and I will grow this strain in the near future! The only difference would be nutrients and maybe transplanting. but like i said on my previous post, I messed up and sort of turned it into a sativa dominant looking genetics. oh whale! :D

Day 81 she still has a ways to go, but i am thinking i started the flushing process a little too early. Not giving it nutes, just distilled water and molasses, ppm totals to about 50 to 60 with my tds meter. Not the best pictures for this week, but ill be sure to get better ones!
