I'm going to start this thread with a disclaimer: I've already been posting this grow in an older thread, but when i tried to direct people to the thread to check out my current project they had a hard time finding it. So I've decided to move everything over to this dedicated thread.

Hey everyone, i’m finally back to do my second journal. Theres a link in my sig for anyone who hasnt seen my first journal, where i did a side by side with the strain White Berry Kush under a 1000 watt Hortilux HPS bulb on one side and a Black Dog LED Platinum XL Universal on the other.
I started this grow a while back and now i have time to post it so i will put up a few posts per week. I also had to change some stuff in the room to compensate for summer temps, like rerunning ventilation which allowed me to seal the room. I also added a portable A/C that exhausts outside of the room which has really helped me keep my temps lower in the middle of a crazy hot summer with two high powered lights. In the past, i’ve had to shut down my grow in the summer because my HPS got too hot but with the addition of a 1300 watt LG portable A/C i’ve been able to run a 4’x8’ garden in flower non stop this summer.
This time around i’m growing with my buddy who has a little more experience than me. He helped buy a second Platinum XL Universal and we’re doing a regular grow, not side by side, with two Platinum LEDs over 18 plants in soil (i’ve always done hydro but royally screwed up my pH last time and was ready to try something different.) Most of this garden is new to me so i’m excited about journalling it on here.
Here are the stats
-Soil
-2X Black Dog LED platinum XL Universal series lights
-House and Garden Van de Swaan nutrients
-18 plants in 3 gallon Smart Pots (for anyone who doesn’t know about smart pots, we got one with our new light and theyre sweet! theyre made of fabric so the roots can grow through and water can run out)
-Strains: White Berry Kush, Sensei Star, and Skywalker OG Kush (or so we were told)
Here are some pictures from right after flipping into bloom. Everyone started from clone and was in veg for 2 months, topped a few times as needed up to 10 days before flipping. When we flipped them they were all about 18 inches tall.
Check back for more soon.
