who is the manufacturer of your light? You may need to add a few warm white cfl's to your flower to bulk your buds...Looks like a nice setup, good luck with your grow.

Have you finished a grow using the UFO light ?

S_a_H

The grow of my Himalayan Blue Diesels were with an UFO, no other lights added. Heard a lot of bad things about the ufos but i guess it depends on what lights they put in them. Mine has the BridgeLux lights and it works super good. First grow yeilded under 1g/w but only because I dident have enough girls out of my seeds. Had 4 girls in small pots, under a gal, and they all yeilded over 1/2 OZ, even with me fucking the ph and heat up, tunning them reall bad....

whats up everybody i got them from htg supply i been gettin all my lighting from them since i started great prices awsome people they also sent a lighter with everyorder which i think is cool im planning on adding some cfls for flower but i been looking into these led bulbs that screw into a normal socket like a cfl theyre $50 each i may get a few and put them in half the garden and use cfls in the other half
seedling whats up all 3 of my boldts are above and 2 of the bb are above the rockwool 3 days from when i put them in the rw lookin good the one bb thats not above i looked at it, it popped it just fell deeper into the cube then the others but its comin up i think ill see it by 2night

whats up i all 6 are standing strong above the wool i turned the drip off last night and noticed a small yellow spot on one so im not going to turn it off again till the roots are in the water i also been thinking of adding a few mls of thrive alive green to each bucket later as i currently have about 2-1/2 gall in the buckets i may put a dose for 1 gall to give them a boost rooting any thoughts pics will be posted later 2day my ph and temps are perfect at the moment i lower them to 5.4-5.5 from 6.2-6.3 every 24hours any input on the thrivealive do you think its a good idea i never usede it a friend of mind gave it to me he uses it on his cuttings to help them root quicker so i think it will help thanks for your input

i been looking into these led bulbs that screw into a normal socket like a cfl theyre $50 each i may get a few and put them in half the garden and use cfls in the other half

Let us know if you do this. There are a couple out there, I think Growl LED has one? a bunch of em could be very useful in finishing, and eliminating shadow. I have been looking, but funds are limited atm. Could really drop em in close, cause there would be no heat, unlike cfls.

new pics day 5from planting

new pics day 5from planting

here are the babies 5days after inserting seed in rockwool drip on24/7 plainwater

pic1 is the boldt pic2 isthe blue pic3 is the last one to pop up it showed itself yesterday afternoon i was considering adding a very light dose of thrive-alive green to each of the buckets 2night not really sure would like some thoughts on that still 2 early my buddy uses it for rooting clones so i would think it may help these sprouts root alittle faster i was planning on putting a 1 gal dose in each bucket which is holding approx2.5 gal at the moment all comments are welcome and thanks to everyone stopping by

hard to tell how they look with the led on, but I get the impression they are pretty yellow??? I dont know if you need to leave the drip on more... or less...seedlings should be a rich dark green at this point.

the tips are alittle yellow i noticed it when i turned the drip off for a few hours so i put it back on
ithink theyre were drops on the leaves and when i turned it off the drops dried and left the marks
