First week, I had some problems with germination, it took a while but they left. I am debuting a new setup, anisos by flora to see how this LEC lamp acts.
End of the second week, everything is going well, this is my first cultivation in coconut, I am still adapting with the nutrients, but for now everything is going well.
Plants developed well this week, some nitrogen deficiencies, but they are already being corrected.
Temperature is a little high for their stage. A little low humidity. Following next week.
End of the third week, everything was going well, I had a problem with over fert in one of the plants, she crashed, I made a flush and it's back to normal. Anxious for flora. Very good growth so far.
We have reached the end of the second week of bloom, pistils are getting big, expecting good results. Everything is going well so far. I look forward to the end of bloom.
For now everything is going well, buds are getting big and fat, a lot of resin is forming, very strong and very good smell.
Looking forward to the next few weeks.
This LEC lamp really makes a difference in cultivation.
Everything is going well, due to running out of time, I didn’t post the last week, the girls are getting fat and with a lot of resin. I think another 2 to 3 weeks would be ready or some plans will be ready.
Everything has been going well in the last few weeks, a lot of resin in the plants, a very good smell, another week or two I can harvest some, others still take around 3 weeks. I long to prove it. Thanks a lot one more time @royalqueenseeds.
The second flush started, I already picked one of them due to having created a little mold in two top buds, I collected the spoon, putting the photos at the end of the cultivation. It gave me a good amount, it's already drying. Waiting until Saturday to harvest the rest.
It was a perfect 11-week cycle, everything went very well, I really liked the result using the new Lec lighting system, my first cultivation in coconut, it was difficult to adapt with the watering at first, but I soon adapted. I really liked the result so far of 3 plants harvested, total of 1055kg wet, I still lack two plants to harvest. Post results later.
Doing the second flush en the tow plants that I yet have in the tend, the tricomans start to became amber.
The frist harvest gave to me 280g of dry weed of 3 plants harvested. A wonderful number when I think that the plants are automatic plants. Everything more than 80g of dry weed harvest of one plant, for me it's good.
I've seen you mention the Lec lights a few times, so I'm wondering what your new light is? Brand, model, power, Heat buildup etc. Good buds. Good luck Sorry if I missed it in previous weeks
@Loserofthemonth, hi buddy, yes I am using only the 315w, with 18/6 of light schedule. For ventilation I'm using a 150mm exhaust fan with two speed options 30w and 60w, but I only use the 30w option And a 150mm 30w power Intractor. It works well for the tent space, on very hot days I use the 60w power option on the hood, this keeps the temperature inside the tent around 26 degrees. Standing outside the tent at around 25/28 degrees. I hope I helped friend.
@Melloganja,, wow great detailed answer. I'm in , my lights are tripple chipped led's and really bright but the heat from 4 600's is more than 8 fans and an inline exhaust will handle. But that's what it took to get the amount of light needed to grow. So if I am going to leave an opening in the top of the tent I might as well get a better light setup. The 4 600s draw 580 combined from the wall so i could maybe save and have a better light situation. Final question are you running just the one 315. I looked at a 630 yesterday after I saw your grow. I think we are both in 4×4 tents. If you are just running one that is exceptional.
@Loserofthemonth, what's upp buddy, thanks for asking about the Lec lamp.
It's a Solux Pro Selecta 315w with a lamp of 3100k color.
Kit with the latest lighting technology applied to indoor marijuana crops, LEC or Light Emitting Ceramic, also called CMH or Metal Halide Ceramic.
They are lamps superior to the typical ones sodium vapor lamps and even LEDs and LEPs (plasma), it is equivalent to a 600w sodium equipment, with
energy savings of almost 50% and a reduction 50% of the heat emitted.
LEC grow lights are similar to a
metal halide (MH), but instead of using quartz use a ceramic arc tube, very similar to what used in sodium vapor grow lights
(HPS). This is why they are often called "halides of ceramic metal ". The great advantages are that they have
a higher range of light spectrum, emit a natural m65 color, produce m65 light per watt, and last plus.
The match for these LEC lamps is Bi-Din. The socket of these LEC lamps is Bi-pin, a
Difference from typical E-40 HM and HPS lamps and they work with different ballasts as well.
Ceramic metal halide lights
produce UV-B rays like the sun, which contributes to the
increased development of trichomes and terpenes in
marijuana buds, in addition to producing a natural spectrum of light that allows plants to be seen
full color, unlike LEDs or HPS that
distort the color, so it is also m65
easy to diagnose problems with the lights more artificial spectrum. Ultraviolet light emission beneficial and far red, increases yields in a spectacular way. Be surprised by the low consumption
and the enormous returns it achieves.
