Bit background- this is my 4th grow, but first on LED, previous were on T8 CFL tubes and was simple "bush" grows. What i wanted to do this time is do SCROG and do it full LED (because of heat/ventilation, noise and low yield with T8 issues). Main reason why i'm doing this blog, because when researching on LED lights I found very little (credible) info, so I thought I should share and hopefully will succeed both in sharing and growing.
Basic facts-
Strain: C99 from femaleseeds.nl, sativa dominant hybrid.
Cabinet size: 58x58x120cm (2"x2"x4" ?), not much, but i thing for scrogging 2 plants will be just right.
Light: Going to make both veg and flower under it (hopefully). It's modular unit, total wattage 240w, 3w leds, 6 rings x 15 leds per each. Spectres are 8 x 660nm (deep red), 3 x 630nm (red), 2x 460nm (blue), 1x 12000K white, 1x 410nm (UV). Was this a good choice choosing such spectres we'll see.
Exaust: Bought S&P 160 inline fan for exaust and/or air circulation, but bit depends on temperature generated by LED light, so i'm yet to decide how it's going to happen.
This is soil based grow and i'm intending to use some commonly buyable soil and some allround veg/flower ferts i have used in previous my growths.
Started to germinate seeds in 22.09.2012
Put into soil 24.09.2012
Put 28.09.2012 under lamp, so assume this Day 1
This how it looks currently:
