ive got a spare 2x4 tent i wanna set up for a couple reasons. i have genetics to test and i dont wanna take up valuable floor space on untested plants. secondly i wanna try out some LED lighting. im easing myself into it with 2 90w LED lights. i think they are 90w actual usage because they are 45 3w bridgelux chips. i was just gonna run the 2 LED lights but i am gonna run a few AK SOG bushes in there too and i wanna make sure im giving them enough light so im gonna run a 300w hps in the center and the two LED's on the sides. i think that will be plenty of light to kill it in there. they should all be high yielding strains for the most part. there's pot of gold, chemmy jones, AK and jackberry. i know the AK is legit. its my third run with her. they are all topped multiple times, super cropped and defoliated. i want NO lower buds at all since im using low wattage with low penetration(no laughing)
right now they are in my main flowering area under a 600w digilux. as soon as my LED's show up on tuesday i will put up the tent and set everything up and get some pics up. they are getting moved out to make room for my ebb and grow system for the big girls. ive got 12 supercropped tsi fly clones waiting to go into their new homes. they are my main focus. the 2x4 is a bonus
i really wanna hit 1 GPW with this setup. i know the AK are capable ladies. the other are untested so im not so sure if i will make it. The nutes are Veg + Bloom and drip clean. thats it. the hydro system is a DIY drip system currently being run DTW. i dont have a timer so i just plug in the pump and flood them for a minute or so then unplug. still easier than hand watering lol. The AK's are hand watered in coco/hydroton using the same nutes.
anyways here are the bitches basking in the 600. the light is a bit high but its on a hanger that i cant really lower at the moment since theyre all connected lol. damn my planning haha.
the second pic is why i cant lower the light ATM lol. my shoddy attempt at a vscrog without a vertical bare bulb hahaha. still working pretty good though. i bet i get close to a lb off my 600 and 4 plants
i just had a random thought.... why the F do i need a tent? i flower in the open in my room and veg in a tent. i could just stick these girls in the corner where they will get a little bit of light from the big lights and i dont have to worry about temps. makes sense right?? now i have something to think about lol.
if any of you have any advice or exp to share let me know. new to LED but been doing this for years on a hobby level. trying to advance to the majors
