Weekly update: everything good!
Basically just watered with a small dose of nutrients, did a minimal defoliation and removed some suckers low under the canopy.
Stretch almost done, buds start to form and plants seems happy.
Little odor for now.

Things are going well, buds start fattening.
Gave a light dose of flowering nutes, but plants seems to be a little sensitive. minimum signs of overfert on the tips of the leaves.

I would give you more rep but I've used it all up for today... those are some really nice looking buds surprisingly so with how little power you are using

Hey Solo! thx for passin' here, these Leds are a real surprise. Compared to their cost and ease to use, they produce very well.

Hey El Tigre,
Plants are looking really good😋
How far from canopy to bulbs?
Btw. cool info-graphic.

Hi Man0os! look at this post, previous in my thread:

I consider that distances just as an indication and I fell free to "adjust" them a little bit, by circumstances.
I'm convinced that there is a strain related diferency of optimum light ammount for each plant.
:tiphat:

BROSIAH! After a second look through this thread I'm blown away... this is basically inspirational material for anyone looking to get into this hobby.
You are doing more with less and it's frickin awesome.

Thank you guys! Your words make me happy :)
I started this thread for showing how simple and cheap is to start a production for personal use self-sufficiency (for a not so heavy smoker like me.. LOL).
My goal is to encourage everybody to join the self production, that is a better option in every point of view.
Just like the "micro guys" in here that inspired me before!).
I am also happy with this run, actually my best for now.
I'm starting to feel comfortable with this setup.
I'm crossing my fingers because yesterday starts to be very hot here... i hope to manage temperature for the last weeks.
For now just moved the lights a little away. If needed i can switch of a bulb or two, this is another plus for these Screw in leds!!
At the end of the run i'll make a cost breakdown of the run.
Let's calculate how much costs to produce weed at home with my setup!
Some pictures of the buds today:
