Absolutely wonderful light. I got more bang for my buck when comparing this specific light to the equivalent offers from companies like spider farmer. This light comes out cheaper but since it's bought off Alibaba, shipping and duty needs to be worked into the price. This light ended up being exactly the same price that a 300watt bar style fixture would have cost me from my local spider farmer dealer. I get a marginal extra 20watts but I had to wait a few weeks for it to be shipped and clear customs. All that said, I did my homework. With this fixture, I get a total of 250 more LEDs than the spider farmer would have provided for more or less the same wattage. This would mean that the kingbrite has more LEDs to spread those 320watts through, meaning that each LED is being driven less hard. For this reason, I would bet a popcorn bud that this light is more efficient watt for photon and runs cooler in your grow tent as a result. This is an absolute game changer for my climate as these tents get HOT hot down here in Europe's southern buttcrack.

It's aight. Bought second hand and the Velcro windows were torn a bit from previous owner. Gotta be honest I'm somewhat concerned having a photoperiod flowering in this tent given that I can see light escaping from the inside out during light hours. However when I closed myself in it, it seemed acceptably dark in there so I guess we'll see how my black muffin turns out in it. I will say that I am not particularly fond of the dimensions on this particular tent but beggars can't be choosers and that's what my friend had to sell me so I bought it. With a tent this small, it doesn't really make much sense to make it cube shaped unless you're only growing 1 plant in it. You could put in 3 plants and make relatively good use of the space but they'd have to be pretty small plants and you will be constrained by how much horizontal training you can do with them. I am currently using this tent to house just one (hopefully large) photoperiod plant as I could never use the space well growing 2 plants. You can check this experiment out in another one of my diaries, it's the Black Muffin one from Sweet Seeds. Cube shaped tents are ok as long as they are like 2 or 3 times this size. Say a cube tent that can house a plant comfortably in each quadrant. The area of this tent is technically perfect for two but it's awfully hard to train two plants in such a way that you use half of this cube with each plant.

Only used their bloom complex for soil. Initially got this for my potted flowering plants but when some plants don't respond to biobizz organic fertilizer, this product seemed to do the trick. I am definitely intrigued by this company and I will be trying their organic range in the future. They only have two bottles in their organic line from what I can gather so it will be interesting to see if they're enough. 5/5 just cause it does what it says on the tin, no marketing mumbo jumbo, just gives you the ratios of nutes plus the chelating agents they use. Nothing more, nothing less, as one would expect.

This run with biobizz has been characterized by vigorous healthy growth but started getting deficiencies in mid flower. Think I need to get the biobizz calmag or try to be more on point with the VPD to try and see if uptake can be increased. Funnily enough, the plant which I gave foliar application to ended up a couple inches taller, with a thicker stem and a stronger root system. It actually took some effort to pull out the rootball of the bigger plant despite the deficiencies and lackluster bud density. I am currently trying their All-mix instead of the light mix so I feel like I am giving them a fair shake. Quite a bit pricier, especially since it appears that the light mix has more nutrients in it than some grower social circles think. Overall, I like these biobizz products but I feel like I do not quite know what is in these products and which of them should be prioritized/deprioritized according to the situation. This is one area where I think biobizz could improve by providing more information about their product and best use cases. I have since used their light mix on a different flowering plant that grew 6 feet without any fertilizer at all. You have to wonder how much oomph these nutrients actually pack and whether some of my issues were from an over application of nutrients even though I followed the schedule as much as I could. More experimentation is required. The products which I have not given full stars, I just don't understand enough about them to consciously give full marks to. As a non-npk product, I feel that not enough information is given for me to draw any meaningful conclusions and I haven't used the products long enough to see any differences. The activera to me seems like the one that might possibly be most useful as it seems to be the micro nutrient one. The alg-a-mig is supposedly an algae based plant growth hormone however it tends to discolor in the bottle and no information is given as to whether the product is cold pressed or chemically extracted. An extremely important distinction. The top max is a humic and fulvic acids blend which supposedly acts as a shuttle for micronutrients to enter the plant. I do find Biobizz's schedule a bit puzzling with this product as no other brand that I know of holds off for so long. Then again root juice is a damn near identical product, which they do recommend that you give early on. Very puzzling. I have used fish mix in veg and bio grow plus bio bloom in flower as recommended by biobizz in their schedule. All three are npk products and need no big explanation as to their importance, they get 5/5 from me. I have not used bio heaven or root juice. I have not bought bioheaven simply because i already have a lot of microbe concoctions that I get cheaply. It is not clear what root juice provides that top max doesn't so I didn't buy that one either.

Very vigorous autos. They grew so fast initially that I decided it would probably be a good idea to top them. They didn't disappoint. Incredible smell through most of flower, buds sticky enough they might as well make glue out of them and trimming these babies was an absolute gosh darn nightmare. It took hours but the yield was absolutely worth it for how quick these autos are. Got these seeds as freebies for a different 5 pack and they haven't disappointed despite being free. A solid choice for those who enjoy fast growing autos.

I bought this light on the second hand market. This style of light is not one that I would recommend however spider farmer is a wonderful manufacturer of grow lights. Very dependable on quality and they are easily found in many legal markets as a budget grow light option. I have to admit they are a bit on the pricier side for what you get however they are absolutely worth it if you don't want to take any risks and want to know that you have enough power for however many plants you want to grow. If you can afford it, go for bar style lights and not the quantum board style like the SF. Since this is a singular board with all the LEDs in a relatively compact space, the lights have an inherent hot spot in the very middle and this is purely down to the design and not the brand. They tend to be cheaper but they run hotter so if your climate is warm, take this as a second suggestion to get bar style lights. Their efficiency likewise tends to be lower than other fixtures that do not run as hot.

This plant wasn't doing well in veg and I never really figured out what the real problem was. Plant seemed stunted in growth and the new growth seemed to have trouble greening up. Seemed like a sulfur deficiency to me and I applied a couple of Epsom salt applications which I think helped. Veg took a long time due to the plant not achieving the size I had wished so eventually I flipped her after too many weeks. By this time, the summer heat was fully upon us and adding a humidifier seemed to help immensely in greening up the plant.

I have not had a chance to try it yet as I have only just jarred it . Buds are extremely dense and the yield is somewhat surprising given how tiny it looks after drying. Unfortunately the heat is picking up in that tent but despite that, the plant remained very visually healthy. Luckily, disturbing the plant still gave off plenty of citrus and earthy smells with the latter being the predominant smell. The earthy smell I can only describe as a cross between pine and clove, absolutely wonderful. The citrus blends real well too. Very sticky during harvest, I wet trimmed most of it by hand just taking off the fan leaves. I cut off most of the ends of the sugar leaves while fresh too however I did not trim them like a dispensary would. I leave the sugar leaves that are heavy on the trichomes as they do not bother me. Sue me :D The weight is dry, not wet. Didn't take wet measurement. I will try to edit this once I try it a couple times. 8/10 as a plant, absolutely beautiful sativa like, just what the doctor ordered :grin:. I think this could be a 9 or even a 10 in the right hands, hence why I wish to revisit. I think I didn't do her justice. EDIT: I will write this as I try this strain for the second time. Opening the jar and taking a whiff, very spicy smelling right off the bat. Not a hot spicy but more like a herbal spicy, kinda like that kick in the nose you get from smelling strong pine or lemongrass essential oil. That kinda herbal spice. The pine really makes sense as this plant had a predominantly earthy smell during flower. Picking the nugs, all of them are absolutely rock hard, down to the smallest popcorn bud. Truly representative of what I know and read about sativa bud structure. Buds are admittedly small however I suspect that better growing conditions could have improved this considerably. Breaking open the nugs, you finally start to smell the citrus. More lemon-y than anything else but very discreet and blends very well with the earthy notes. Have to comment once again about the bud structure, it really is one of the densest I've seen of the homegrown category. Grinds real easy, the moisture on the buds are perfect for grinding. Opening the grinder and taking a whiff, the spicy/earthy smell has a sort of anise aroma to it. It really is quite unique smelling and I have to wonder how much stronger smelling this plant can get in cooler conditions. Ground down, the bud looks whiter than some other types of bud I'm currently enjoying. Smell is very inviting. Lighting up, Cheers! Just like the first time, I'm immediately getting a spicy zing in the back of the mouth/beginning of the throat. It is a very pleasant peppery spiciness in terms of taste which is a departure from the spiciness in the smell as it is a more piney, herbal spicey. The best way I can describe it is how certain Cigars tend to develop a spicy note after the first half or last quarter. It is EXACTLY that sort of spicy. It really is quite wonderful. I can sort of still get a whiff of citrus sometimes but I'm not getting much of it in the taste, if any. I'm finding it very relaxing however take this with a heavy pinch of salt as I have smoked three different strains today, it's currently past midnight and I had a massive dinner. Probably shouldn't be smoking Sativas but I digress. The point is I am likely the worst person to tell you what the effects of a strain are but my last surviving brain cells are quite enjoying this strain at this moment in time. Halfway through it, that spiciness is really something. Really really nice. Very cigar like in that spicy mouth feel kind of way, like I already said. Definitely taking the spiciness to 11. Sometimes a cigar can get so spicy that your face below your eyes and around your nose starts sweating, that's exactly the taste I am getting with this. I would say it's very nice and spicy if I didn't do so 50 times already so I'll just bugger off. Good evening and thanks for reading my rambling review of this strain. 4/5 smoke, would try again.
