Hi all. Welcome to this run withbthe Viparspectra XS1500 which i was kindly sent to try by their helpful rep Valerie. As I have a fairly good space to use for my main grow , it seemed an ideal time to explore a few options while I wait for space to appear following upcoming harvests. The opportunity hit at a good time and has now driven the future play time. lol The light is a full spectrum 150W( at the socket) , Dimmable and very well made unit. As summer is here now , my concerns of more heat being an issue have stopped me from adding my other light so the smaller 2ftx2ft area covered by the XS1500 is a good option , The heatsink is built into the case design with a finned top to dissipate the heat so no noisy fans. Switching it on to full power was a nice surprise as the footprint was way wider than I had expected and the actual coverage is even better for my Nursery to harvest plan.... I am growing autos perpetually at present and have been able to throughput the plants with just 2 lights and using the overlaps at the edges to bring seedlings along to veg/flowering, as harvesting is finishing. The timing had been working well but the plants were getting smaller towards the last runs . I gave it some thought and Rh % came to mind. With the perpetual runs not having a higher rh in their veg periods due to other plants needing a lower Rh% in flower , the vapour pressure deficit (vpd) was not within veg periods healthier range. This current run has exploded and filled my normal space very quickly which in turn means I cannot use the same principle as the last perpetual run of bringing the next ones along ready for the exchanges. The XS1500 takes care of this issue with it being perfect for an initial nursery light that is easily covering all the new seedlings but is also able to cover my experimental "5 plant 1 Pot" attempt. I have placed 5 of my own autob seeds from a previous seeding in a single 60 L pot and intend to strip them to their 4th nodes and only allow 2 mains per plant to develop and flower. Inam hoping to have 10 mains growing in it that will be under the xs1500 solely as the other plants outgrow the lights footprint and space they are in. They will go into the main grow space once able so i can really see how well this new light can flower with the 10 mains to fill the space. Until that point , I will diary as we go and see what we can achieve.

Transplanted and separated into a 4x8 and 5x5 started to get deficiencies I think either cal or mag maybe even a little of both I flushed the soil in case ph was off in the soil then a couple had nitrogen deficiency so I gave them a tea last night will see how they look tonight when I’m off work once they are healthy I’ll flip to flower

Hi alle zusammen dies war die letzte vegi Woche puh! Wieder 10 Wochen ins Land gezogen die Zeit rennt auch 😰! Die Woche lief ganz gut bus auf Dienstag da wollte ich alles noch einmal nach justieren und da ist mir die lady die hinten rechts steht gerissen also das T von oben ein gerissen (gespalten) hat sie aber nicht sonderlich gestört hab sie so gut es geht fixiert (sollte auf den Bildern und dem video zu sehen sein werde es nächste woche nochmal genauer fotografieren) ist leider dadurch nicht alles unbedingt auf gleicher Höhe so 2 bis 3 cm höhen unterschied zu der kleinsten von den 4 octos aber naja habe Freitag abend nachdem das Licht aus ging den reflektor ausgebaut und einmal Grund gereinigt und wieder eingebaut danach das ganze von meiner Mh auf Ndl gewechselt. Die zeitschschalt Uhr habe ich auf 12/12 umgestellt ab jetzt geht es langsam Richtung heisse Phase 😁😂(ich freue mich schon auf den Duft und das geglitzer) euch allen ein schönes Wochenende mit viel Sonne 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

She is vigorous towards the finish has about 1-2 weeks to go. Beautiful purple tones and fruity orange hints. Flushing her with water as she bows out. Trichomes are 40% clear and 60% cloudy. Thc is looking like 18-20%. All in all I am happy with the genetics and hope for a few seeds.

Day 65, 14th of November 2020: Growing so so much topping does not stop her! Really nice! Strong tall girl and growing aggresively similar to my Gelato from the same breeder Original Sensible Seeds. I hope she calms down a bit and stop growing it is enough thank you ;) 😅😅 Pre flowers and pistils are and nicely forming! Fertilization happens every 2nd day with the ratio and mix above. I set the lamp 15 minutes shorter to switch off earlier so she receives 11:45 of darkness. I would like to imitate the nature when longer nights come with time till the 4th week (when she will receive 13 hours darkness a day 15 minutes minus 4 times = 1hour) so every week 15 min longer darkness for 4 weeks and then back to 12/12 to have bigger buds from the 4th week....

I cant fix the damage that was done but they are putting on a little weight and the Trichomes are starting to amber up say 15%-20% i think i can push it one more week. I will give 2 days of dark on Wednesday and chop at week 10-11 as i put them into flower on 3/20

Finished on day 87, was fully ready. Buds displayed a rich dark green and purple colours at the end. Didn't need much feeding or nutrients, although if I had stayed ontop of it more I have no doubt I'd have yeilded more. Great lil strain to grow.

Its running perfect, but my Photos want to flowering. 🌼🌸🌺 I think the pineapple and papaya needs round about 10days to harvest. 🍍 The trichomes are currently still in the milky stage. 🥛✨

This plant has a solid stench of pure ripe lemons. So much aroma and color in every bud, purples, to dark green, to lime green, to solid frost. This one definitely a fun strain to watch grow and tend too for the last few months. She’s definitely a hungry girl, seemed to be the only strain out of the three that accepted and thrived with full feed nutrients. Would definitely recommend this Strain to someone For a nice uplifting day smoke, also seems to do me good for some pain and stress relief.

Hola amigos arrancamos nuevo cultivito, por ahora os traigo los videos que subo a YT como ya sabéis le estoy dando caña al canal, buscarme allí, me llamo como aquí, xmackobox. Poco mas, se empezaron a germinar el día 14/02/24. Algunas se pasaron a maceta el día 16, otras en 17 y se terminaron de plantar en maceta definitiva de 11 L el día 18/02/24. Para la primera semana de crecimiento ya meto fotos detalle de todas. **ACTUALIZADO** 26/02/24 llevamos 12 días desde que se empezó a germinar, todas brotadas perfectas excepto 1 que como veis parece atrofiada o con algún problema, no desarrolla el ojo principal es decir su punta apical. Esperaremos a ver que hace esta plantita :D
