Some pics from my 63watt LED micro grow.

VerdantGreen · Jan 14, 2010

hi all, this wont be a grow diary as such but i thought the browsers here might be interested to see my first grow under a first generation 63 watt LED unit.
Its pretty simple. a single plant scrog with the screen attached to the pot, grown in organic soil. these pics take us up to 4 weeks in or so and i will update with more later. for more details see the link in my sig which will take you to the full grow diary in the Micro forum. Strain is Martian Mean Green, a sativa dom. hybrid

Very nice Verdant. I didn't realize you were into LED's. I don't have any yet myself, but I'm keen to try them out sometime. The plants look to be enjoying them!

checking in.

I'm really looking forward to seeing these when finished! I just sat and counted 19 "head" colas that I could see, although one is hiding just a little. In another 3 weeks those buds should start to plump up nicely

Verdant, would the 126 be sufficient for you 2x2 cab or would you prefer the next larger size model, which is, as I recall is about 200 watts? You are doing a great job!

Maybe LEDgirl will tell us why or why not.

Maybe LEDgirl will tell us why or why not.

FIRST: Excellent grow! How many plants are in there... ONE?

will it get tall enough to need side lighting?

VerdantGreen · Mar 12, 2010

petflora - sorry for late response - yes just one plant as it was already vegged pretty big. i thing two less stretchy ones may be better though. i never use side lighting.

finished at around 11 weeks and the dry yield was 59.2 grams which equates to pretty much 1 gram/watt. early days but quality seems as good and maybe better than HPS.

again, more pics in the thread link in my sig

nik8989 · May 9, 2010

LEDGirl · May 9, 2010

Nik - it's a Hydro Grow LED light. He got it from our company.

VerdantGreen ,
Congrats to you! The best thread I’ve read on this sub-forum. You proved to me that a very small amount of LEDs can produce great, every thing equals elsewhere. I’m definitively considering LED for my next grows. Hopefully, it will help me to reduce my carbon footprint (in my view, this is the most interesting point with LED).
Thanks

Wow! I'm sure impressed. Beautiful harvest off that micro grow.

LEDGirl · May 15, 2010

You should check out his current scrog grow with our 205W. It's looking really nice

VerdantGreen · May 31, 2010

ive also got another harvest nearly ready under the 63w unit - i'll update this thread with it shortly

MeanBean · May 31, 2010

Hey V, you got that setup dialed in bro!! I was thinking the other day about this and wanted to know what you thought.

Lets say you put 2 63w units in that same setup, do you think you will get twice as many buds or do you feel the over saturation would be a bit wasteful on the same sized canopy and maybe give you a bit less than double the weight from the same area???
