ViparSpectra XS1500 LED Grow Light

Well, i really like seeing how they grow naturally. I may remove a leaf up top if it is blocking growth below, but otherwise the plants have grown au naturale. #1 still isn't showing many trichomes, but that is only correlated to potency, so i'm not so worried by that alone. Vertical growth finally stopped end of last week or this week. One more measurement will verify that feeling in a few minutes. I'd guess this one is slightly behind in development compared to #2. She's a beaut, that #2. Starting to look sexy, so i took some macro shots this week. Some minor light damage up top, but that is inevitable due to different plant heights. See some initial coloration of a rare pistill. #3 is quickly catchign up. Terminal tufts are thicking up, but still jsut hairs. Back to .9g per gallon with epsom salt. I've done this before.. reduce it and see issues. I like to bank my head against the same wall over and over again at times. Also, may drop Cal-Nitrate further. While the leaves are not overtly glossy, they are more lush than i prefer. I'd like to get a slightly lighter shade of green than what i have now. Very rare and minor tip yellowing here and there. Again, gotta keep an eye on that for any progression. I feed a very light and well-balanced mix. It is the same mix i use on photoperiods. So, all that nonsense that autoflowers need less? If you feed photos too much, you likely need to reduce for autoflowers, i'd guess, otherwise it's not true and proof is in the pudding above. Very healthy plants.. maybe pushing edge slightly... but no more than a ~5% difference from a photoperiod diet.

This light was sent to me by ViparSpectra. It looks like an excellent light for the price point. They used the most efficient 'white' LED diodes (LM301). They come in both 3000K and 5000K varieties. The average is around 3600K, so it should do you well in both vegetative phase and bloom phase. The 5000k will promot branching early and 3000k will promote bud development late. It also includes diodes for 660nm and 760nm wavelengths (far red and infrared). Meanwell drivers are a well known brand with good efficiency. It has a quality heatsink, too. This is an excellent light that can take you from seed to harvest and produce high quality buds. 8% Coupon Code - XSNobodyBud Note, my screen name is slightly different. Use any code you find for that matter. There are several out there. There are no commissions invovled with this particular code, but I did receive a free light. Nonetheless, I'm an honest guy about this stuff.
