Experimental Mini Grow

@DreamIT, Thanks 👍

@@KingK420, well, I would not top it. Just follow the schedule I wrote. LST from when it’s small and it will fit fine. Most of the grows I set up for friends are only 60 cm high (secret jardin DP60 like in the garden I sent the link to) and what I wrote you seems to get the best out come. Small pot (8lt) will help it to finish early and stay small. Follow normal nute regimen. Once it starts flowering, flip it. I LST my plants in a circular shape and tie it down a bit every second day. It means normally a plant that’s 80cm you can keep to 30cm no problem. The diameter of my pots is about 23 cm so you have a circumference of about 92 cm so if you train the plant in a spiral it can theoretically grow to 90cm before it wraps back on it’s self. Most of mine stay easily to max 30 cm. which in the DP60 means once at full height there is about 10cm between the light and the tip of he canopy. It’s tight but it works and my mates are harvesting between 60-100g as I said. Anyway, with micro grow your principles are the same as with macro. Adequate light, air movement, nutes, genetics, substrate, environment, PH and the list goes on. It can be more difficult to grow in smaller spaces because of things like heat management. But I love the micro and most people have a 60x90x60 space they can free up. Bigger tents become harder to hide and also for most peeps 60-100g every 2 months is as much medicine as they need. Anyway, hope it goes well. And I would suggest checking out a different light. Quantum board style, does not have to be expensive

@@KingK420, its 60x90x60. 100watt Spider farmer led inside. I would be worried about efficiency and direction of your light. They may be 20 watts each but probably only 11 or so usable watts and it’s not all focussed downward. If you want an ounce or more it would certainly be worth looking at a slight light upgrade. The HLG 65 QB are good for that size. https://www.amazon.com/Horticulture-Lighting-Group-High-Efficiency-Upgraded/dp/B076QDKVDZ Or there are lots of options. Anyway, don’t forget with LED it’s not how many watts it is like the old globes, it’s about how efficient those watts are.

@MicroGasm, they are corn bulbs @ 6000K, I have 3 @ 3000K to swap out throught the grow. They are all 20w so 60w in total, not sure on what LEDs they are but the temps are perfect! I was considering more powerful bulbs but was unsure on the optimum watts per square ft? I was really wanting to mainline just for fun really and to keep her low and symetrical. I would still have to top I think but are cream caramels known for height? would starting bloom nutes early sacrifice yields? 😕

@@KingK420, I run just 2 bulbs, 2x 12,5W 4000K for veg and 2x 19W 2700K for flowering, and I hang them like 12 cm above the plant. at 10 cm its starting to show lightburn, so 12-14 is ideal for me :)

Thanks! You have the exact result I am after, a nice even canopy... What lights are you running?

@Polaskis, Thanks 👍

@Alcor, Thanks 👍

No problem 😁 I have used sweet seeds many times and will continue to do so 👌 Gonna be a long wait! 😷
