More grow LED details:
Achieve incredble yields with minimal power consumption. Through optimal planning and new Samsung LED technology, the unique, passively cooled LED was created. The LED is absolutely silent and guarantees the best lighting conditions, even with a plant distance of 5 cm only (2 inch). The viewing angle of 120° works optimally up to 1 m (40 inch) distance between the lamps. The light spectrum of the Samsung LED chips covers 380 – 780 nm and provides almost all plants from growth to harvest best conditions. The light distribution of 144 pieces of Samsung LED chips is optimized for the urban Chili (1/4 m², 2,7 feet²).
If you want to use the grow LED without urban chili, we recommend in dark rooms 4 pieces per 1 m² in rooms with sunlight 2 pieces per 1 m².

SCROG... how to to easiest way... Hi i want to make a scrog in this grow, in that box... iam thinking how to do it.. any nice life hacks/ suggestions? to do an easy SCrog
Easiest way for me would be to use a frame made out of wood with 4 wooden feet to place on ground so you don't have to modify your chili box. Then just attach a Scrog net of your choice on the frame.Quasi 4 Hölzer als Beine, einen Rahmen aus Holz oben drauf und ein Netz mit Schrauben und Unterlegscheiben fixieren. Kosten würde das keine 20 €.
WEEK 1
Saturday
All Plants sit in 3L Pots filled with my Soilmix and Living Organics ( Green Buzz Liquids)
They get water with Humic Acid and More Roots ( Green Buzz Liquids)
and I spry them every second Day with Fast Plants Spray (Green Buzz Liquids)
All Girls show up,
Up to now everything is nice and smooth with the Urban Chili 2.0
I enjoy it very much, to have her near by me.
She is standing in my Livingroom, near my PC and my WritingDesk, i can look very often the Day
My Pc is louder than the Urban Chili 2.0, so a super Solution for Stealthgrows
I have red wrigglers in my pots for outside. They are good at aerating breaking down matter and making worm casting. I would use them with bottled nutes tho I’m pretty sure it will kill them. I also use organic dry amendments and they break it down to a more useable food source. I also use worm casting for compost teas it does wonders. When I do seed sprouted teas the left over blended material I place in the top of my pots under the straw as another food source, you must give them something to eat otherwise they will run out of food. I’ll be adding more as I might have had some die off with all the rain and removing the straw due to to much moisture. Hope this helps good luck
Week 2
Big development.
I totally undersetaminated the Growbox. The Lights are Brilliant,
i got to give more Distance to the Lights today, because the Nodes were very close together.
The Lights ave a good and strong Light
The Box is super Silent, and i really love it to have The Box in my Livingroom, so i can look very often after the Plants
Iam very Grateful to have that Growbox. Its silent, nice decorative, and does a very good Job.... iam very courious where that Grow leads to
I got to top the Girls and start training soon.
P.S
The colour of the Pictures dont show the true Colour, they are nice and green, on pics they look a little limegreen
Friday
On Sunday we are in Week 3
The Girls are in 3l Pots into My Soilmix with "Living Organics"
It was a busy Week for the Girls
On Tuesday I topped them above 3rd Node ( its my first Mainlining)
On Thursday i cut the leaves and bend them down.... here is the Result
After that action i watered them with Humic Acid and water and they got some Fast Plants Spray ( Green Buzz Liquids)
Iam still very happy with the Growbox, Girls Grow Vigor and Nicely
Monday
And more Mainling. I cut away the " old" Fanleaves and bind them down.
Then they got some Fast Plants Spray, and Water with Humic Acid Plus
Now they have time to grow a little
Tuesday
again some Mainlining, took away 1 hand of Leaves
after they were Sprayed with " Fast Plants Spray"
Wednesday
I did again Further Mainlining
took away a Handfull of Leaves
Leaves are green and very strong , gotta watch them good, because its only 3L of Soilmix,
and Nutrients in the Soil may be used soon
The Box works wonderful, supersilent and stealthy. The Lights surprised me again.
Plants growing strong and show that they got enough high Quality Light
Saturday
We are in Week 4, Girls sit in 5 l Pots filled with my Soilmix and Living Organics
and some Claysubstrate in the Bottomarea
Ive begun some Mainlining on the Girls and they respond very well and grow nice and Vigor
They are watered daily with " Hunmic Acid" and "More Roots"
every third Day they get "Fast Plants Spray" as foliar Feeding
Yesterday theyve got some Molasses and "Organic Grow Liquid" ( first Time)
Iam still very Happy to have such a silent and stealth Growbox in my Livingroom,
The Lights are very Good. As you can see the Girls get enough High Quality Light to develop that ways
Wednesday
The process of Mainlining goes on
every second Day i remoce more Plantmaterial, some look very good and yes the otherones... we will see
First Time Mainlingn so... i have to learn
Saturday
We are in Week 5
I think iam soon ready with Training the Girls,
and just let them Grow under 12/12
The Girls had alot of leaves and grow, i had to train.
They are vigor and healthy, one plant is a little "pale" so she got an extra dosis "Fast Plants Spray"
They all got some Nutes, second Time with N ( half dosage)
Every Day its impressing for me how nice the Lights work,
Plants are strong and grow dense.... GREAT STUFF--- those "TinyLights"
Wednesday
They got a watering and their "Preflowering Feeding " they will go today into 12/12
Iam going to a add a scrog
Iam done with Mainling...
Saturday
I switched the Girls today to 12/12
Yesterday i made a Bamboo-Scrog
Today i put the Scrog into the Box, Iam not sure because of the Distance, but i will do more Reading
Girls look nice, and got another Feeding
Box and Lights work wonderful, i cant see no Light defiencys... great thing
Only 65 Watts...and working like "big ones"...
Qality Product made in Austria
Saturday
Girls are in second Week of Flower,
They sit in 5 l Pots filled with my Soilmix and "Living Organics"
They get water every Day with "Humic Acid Plus"
The get Nutrients on Wednesday and Saturday
Last week they got a Scrog, and they reached it now.
No big News, looking healthy and nice.
Saturday
I had a meeting with an experienced Grower to teach me something about Scrog
So i listened Carefully and I am feeling much better to get it done
So i topped them on an imaginary Level , and got to keep them there.
I changed the Nutrients in direction Flower, and zeroed Organic Grow Liquid, more Roots, and fast Buds
I added Organic More PK, and give more Orgaic Bloom Liquid and Big Fruits
Technically second week of flower started because i messed the first Week up with the Electric device -timer
So this is again a new Learning and i like it. Stay tuned
Saturday
I watched them carefully not to overgrow, its a tough Job
I tuck the plants and did a little defoilation
i surely snapped a few branches and iam not so happy at all with my Job
But nevermind... the UrbanChili does a nice Job always supersilent and nice Light.
For me its dificult to treat them this way
Saturday
Well, Flower get bigger, and plant grow alittle more, they all look healthy,
so i did not feed them.
They will get Feeding on Wednesday, until then
only Humic Acid Plus and Big Fruits
Iam not sure what to expect, because i do first Time SCROG and Mainlining
Lights work wonderful, The Box is supersilent
Friday
This Weekend another Week begins for the Girls
No more stretching, only flowers appear now
I messsed up the first flowering week in having toble with the light timer
so i would say its Begin of Week 4 of Flower
I have no big News, Girls look fine and i cant see any diferences between the 3 strains
I think in later Flower we will see differences
they are smelling like " big ones"
and developing some sugar
Firday
We are nearly at the End of this Grow. 3 of 4 Plants are soon be ready (all Criticals)
Only madame White Widow will take longer ( as Breeder says)
Today was the Last feeding for 3 of 4
They are super gluey und under the jewelersloupe you see looong Trichomes who are changing to milky
They smell strong ( i think all of them)
The Box made a good Job , all Girls seem to get what they need i see no Lightdefiency
they are growing dense and well penetrated by the Light
Iam going to repeat a Scrog -grow, but next time with 4 PLants of the same Strain
Thy @GreenBuzzLiquids for the Nutrients and "Benefical Stuff"
If improved that Grow from Beginning
Tuesday
I removed the Scrog, and let them do what they want fof the last Weeks
After removing the Scrog my Fingers were totally gluey,
The Buds are full of Sugar, and they smell like crazy
Trichomes are still changing nearly all milky now
So iwant to say...iam very Surprised of the Quality of the LIghts
Girls are sticky, and they seem to get alot of Quality Light
Iam going to star flushing soon ( tomorrow) and then the last Weeks for 3 of 4 Plants break.
Monday
The UrbanChili surprises me every Time again
The Plants develop very well and Harvest comes near
The Flowers are ripening, Trichomes are turning milky
They are very Sticky and smelly.
Everything like in a "Big ROOM"
And nothing to mention from the Outside, no smell, no light
But if you Open the Growbox is fascinating to see that they dont miss anything
The
Sitcky, gluey Flowers. Very smelly. Easy to grow
I did my first Mainlining, and they were very patient with me
A Great Strain.
I had a mixed Batch in this Grow, but all strains came out very Similar, iam going to do only one Growreport for all 3 Strains
They produced all dese, sticky Flowers. All Strains were so easy to handle, and were very forgiving for my Mistakes in the Mainlining
To the UrbanChili 2.0 Growbox
I was surprised a few Times , Plants were Growing very Healthy
and the Flowerdeveopment were great . I had 4 Plants in this Microgrow ( onl 5 l Growpot and 65 watt Led)
All Plants developed great Flowers and there wa no Sign for missing LIght, They grow compact and dense Flowers
Cheers @ Urban Chili 2.0........
Smoke Report follows
I did my first Microgrow. And the plants were very nice to me and forgive my mistakes. they were growing and flowring like little Darlings, NO PROBLEMS... They smelled very early and developed alot of nice sticky Flowers
The growbox did a great Job... all Plants developed nicely and got a lot of flowers. I absolutely underestaminated the growbox. If someone is looking for a stealth supersilent box with good results... get the Urbanchili2.0
yes the 65 watt LED is enough for this space. . its a very economic growbox, 80 watt total ( with fans). and 0.45 m2 room. supersilent and superstealthy.
Iam guessing for 20 gram each, thats 80 gram in total... in that small space...iam going to repeat that grow, now that i have experience with that box. I think there can be more outcome ( with the right training technics).... iam super happy with that and surprised too
Thank you @MarcXL... sounds good , in wich material would you go for the web=? metalfence =? or straps?
Mit welchem material würdest du das netz machen.. aber deine lösung leuchtet mir absolut ein ...danke
You are definitely one of the most entertaining growers on GD. Something new and interesting in every diary! This grow box sounds very cool. 65 Watt might not sound a lot, but I'm sure those are state-of-the-art lights that are perfectly sufficient for the size. Seems the Austrians are manufacturing the best lights currently. Of course passive cooling. In 2019 there is no excuse for a LED light to need fans 😉 Enjoy!
@Buddha2, ok never seen myself as Entertaining^^ . and i documenting just my growing Growing-experience.... and share it. and Yes i think the Austrains do pretty good stuff. we will see the confirmation in this Diary...
Thank you for uploading another diarie with our 100% organic nutrients.
We also wish maximum success with the use of our products with this strain.
If there should be a question or problem, feel free to contact us at any time, we will gladly assist you with our advice at any time.
@GreenBuzzNutrients, Danke! i feed my worms with Neem cake meal, and they love it. i dont use any mineral fertilizer that harm my microlife , i use only water (some molasses , aloe vera, nettles, horse tail and zimt)
of all your products i only use your mycorrizae and trichoderma powder. i used it on my tomatoes and chilli plants on my balcony and they are HUGE
Grüßen!
@Alpengrower, for the former we agree with you, with the latter we can at least refer you to our 100% organic product range. ever say that the worms feed on the nutrient salts and trace elements of fertilizers, etc. You will end up with equally strong healthy plants and also worms that you can simply put into the new medium after the grow in the new growig medium. A great natural cycle that does not need any additional additives. But it may well be that the worms may eat the root zone with mineral fertilization, because unfortunately I lack the experience of this.
@CRiSPrGrow, two things to take into account.
-space of growing medium. (i use 35/40 worms for a 70 liter pot)
- feed them, you can have a constant mulch or give them neem seed meal every 15/30 days. they love it! otherwise they will eat the roots of your plants, in case they dont have any other food source
looking nice when the lights on on mine its like taking pics under a hps when you get the dark lines coming on the screen shows how strong the light is looking forward to seeing some flowers in here👍👍
@biggreens420,the bamboo scrog can handle the heaviest Flowers^^.....>and to me its a new world. unknown growbox. first time mailning stuff and then a scrog iam very courious how its gonna be
“...any nice life hacks/ suggestions? to do an easy SCrog”
Don’t do it Mrs L. Don’t fall victim to the myth! Easy and scrog don’t coexist.
I noticed 65w before I read your story. Interesting light.
@growdoctordc, i had some hope fo find an "easy scrog solution...." well my hope dies last .... then i got to invent a new easy scrog^^
And yes it sounds very low 65 W but its a high quality product made in austria, and especially made for the growbox, and the needs to this space.
i had critical from zamnesia and i am sure you will love it ,and to tell the truth Zamnesia is excellent seed bank up to the moment i am satisfied totaly
Entweder ein fertiges 60er Netz kaufen oder zum Beispiel nach dieser Anleitung arbeiten:
https://www.grower.ch/forum/threads/anleitung-bau-eines-scrog-netzes.80387/
@Mrs_Larimar, you did a good job in that little space with 4 plants. now, you need to keep tucking those tall ones that are shooting from the sides, the roots still look bendy so i believe you can.
@@Spaceman,yes the 65 watt is enough for this space. . its a very economic growbox, 80 watt total ( with fans). and 0.45 m2 room. supersilent and superstealthy.
Iam guesing for 20 gram each, thats 80 gram in total... in that small space...iam going to repeat that grow, now that i have experience with tht box. I think there can be more outcome ( with the right training technics).... iam super happy with that and surprised too
@Fibro_Witch, yes , i just took the materil i already have. but a net has a big adavantage, you can put outgrowing branches better under a net that under a not flexive bamboo scrog
