Perpetual Vipar Led grow featuring 2 B3x3's

Hey all!

I got my hands on the new Vipar Series B lights. Ill be growing in a wooden cabine a long side a 2x2 tent.
I havent setup the tent yet because im trying to get a perpetual harvest going. Going to be using the B3x3 model for each area.

Right now i have a 3 plants going in my cabinet and a 4th soon to come. An La confidential from my breeding project growing nice and healthy, a northern lights from nirvana, and a jack the ripper from subcool. i had germinated an ak47 previously but it grew out to be a male and will be replaced with another soon.

This time around ive upgraded from 1 gallon plastic pots to 2 gallon smart pots in hope of a bigger yield as i think that was my limiting factor last round. ive also setup a badass blumat system with an 18 gallon tote on bottom that feeds to a 10 gallon one up top. since im l using supersoil i can leave these girls for weeks without having to open up my cabinet and let in the fucking gnats and aphids that pop up out of nowhere late flower.

Here is how the units looks, has 2 switches, 1 for the middle row and another for the 2 outer rows. nice solid feel to them.




La confidential


Jack the ripper. i had planted 2 of these seeds and both times the tap rood tip died and the plant remained a sprout for weeks, the first one i threw away but when this one did the same thing i kept it and it finally started growing. hope its a female with all the time and money possibly wasted.



ill try to get up some pics with the lights off soon! comments and criticism welcome!


Happy Growing !

you're gonna love LA confidential, the smoke is amazing. vegges slow as HELL, but worth the wait IMO.

jack the ripper is also a pretty good strain if you find the right pheno, the one around here locally is really lemony with a haze high.

i have used those 2g smart pots pretty extensively, and found that the best yields can be had
by vegging to 10" in a dixie cup if going single cola, or training to 4-6 tops @ 6", also in a dixie cup.

thanks for the heads up! i actually got this la confidential as a clone a long time ago, it was the strongest strain i have smoked to date, i loved it so much i sprayed some with colloidal silver and made a ton of seeds, the original mom died off but this is the first seed of the ones i made and its growing quite well for going straight into 12-12. i sure hope jtr turns out awesome, jack herer is probably my second favorite strain

Update time: :bigjoint:

My JTR plant turned out to be a male so i removed him and will be replacing him with another soon!

I also germinated a new ak47 which has just sprouted a couple days ago.

not sure if its noticeable in the picture, but underneath the hose where my blumats have been dripping is a giant root clump. when i was checking on the cabinet today, i noticed thats on the la confidential, the roots had actually started to grow into the tube and clogged that blumat!

my northern lights grew so tall that when i walked in to the cabinet today, i noticed that it was touching my light. i cut a few inches below it to shorten it down, only the very tip that was touching the light was burned brown, no bleaching anywhere else on the plant

my la confidential is also starting to get nice and fat, its 12-12 from seed, but i would like to see more frost develop sometime soon.

Happy growing!

Here's the weekly update all!

i took some macro shots and decided it was time to cut the top nug. the rest will come down some time tomorrow. the wet weight was 52 grams and the jar lid went on at 11 grams. so far its everything the original clone was! super impressed with 12-12.

Hello Dr Zoidberg, i bought similar model: http://www.ebay.it/itm/VIPAR-C360-LED-Grow-Light-Reflector-360W-Spectrum-Grow-Veg-Flower-Lamp-Panel-/171077100812?pt=UK_Baby_Baby_Feeding_Bottle_Warmers_Coolers_LE&hash=item27d4fd650c&_uhb=1

been having trouble updating here! couldve sworn i added in my first video update! here it is a long with the second update!

the la con and ak47 that were a little delayed in potting have been looking much better and i started flowering them both about 2 days ago, the ak47 still looks a little roughed up. hoping its not going to hermie again.

the kali mist x bubba is only looking better with every passing day, getting nice and fat!

The og 18 x la con is filling up the screen, its suuuuuuper dense and bushy growing, i cant wait until it starts to flower.
