hi HandyTec! Good grow. Did you do any experimenting techniques besides lighting?

Unless you have nothing to do, this is a nighttime bud. I would make it the equivalent of about 6 ounces of whiskey for several hours. No walking a straight line for sure. Couch lock is an understatement but you can get some incredible sleep on GDP if you take it till the trichomes are all opaque.

Plants did produce the about same amount of bud, maybe a bit fluffier than under HID light, but they were much more purple in color and seem to have a stronger smoke.
Grew a plant under HID and another under LED and found the LED flowers to be a bit stronger in THC and a bit fluffier and they matured a bit faster. But the overall effect is very high THC causing a drowsy couch lock or in my case bed lock that puts me to sleep quickly. Strong skunky odor forced me to change out the carbon filter but totally worth it. My only negative about GDP is at harvest time the plant takes a lot longer to trim because it has more leaves that other strains I have grown. On the plus side, the trim makes an excellent starter base for edibles because the leaves are so frosty.

@HandyTec, that is a valid point you make over there. There are so many factors that come into play when growing. I personally take the light I am using as an indicator of what yield is possible and I try to make sure that everything else around (climate, nutrients, substrate, etc) is as perfect as possible to keep everything in balance. However, I did notice that you gave some nutrients only three or four stars. What was the reason for that?

@Dutchpro_Nutrients_USA_Official, We did try using some Nectar of the Gods nutrients during vegetation. Seemed to give the roots a real boost. Personally I don't like changing to many variables at once because it is to hard to figure out what may have been beneficial or detrimental. Growing only a few plants at a time there is not much play room when you really do need the medicinal effects.
