Gorgeous boss, short and fat, just how I like my ladys, lol but not really :D

Harvest in about 75 days from planting, easy sexing, short plants. That's a few.

right on

[Boss]

I took off another node 3 days ago (And 5 bud sites) and growth has started again, so I lost 3 days for that one, but I am hoping to make it up in the center buds.

After the second dose or strawberry, it has had no effect but to lower the pH, so much for that :-)
This is today, about day 35 from seed I think.

This plant looks much like this one, from the same seed source (bagseed). It's a 80/20 hybrid, but that's about all I can tell.

[BubbaKush]

damm nice lookin buds wow sooo much sparkle

[Boss]

Sopposed to be a lemon indica hybrid, it smells like skunk, and has been getting worse by the day. (or better depending...) I really want to drop another 10k lumens on it, but I have to see if the leds do it instead.

Additon: I am maxxed out on nutes, she has started burning tips.

i heard leds were a joke it will be good to see what happens

[stackz]

so why are you mixing cfl's with the LED's instead of trying an LED only grow?? just curious how much of a difference there would be with ONLY LED lighting for the grow.

[Boss]

There is no reason to try and grow with 52 watts of power. I don't care what the manufacturer says, there is no way 4 of these panels will grow a plant fast enough.

I have split the lumens for for cfl's by more then 1/2 from my last grow. For the other 20k lumens I am missing, I used the LED panels. I also need to know the focal point of the lights so I know how far they have to be kept from the plant. I will know when the plant hits this point by looking at the nodes, and checking daily growth. We are approaching the 2 1/2 foot mark, and I suspect it's between now and 2 feet.

I want to see a LED UFO in action. If those dont work, than I dont think any LED system will work.

so you couldnt just replace this with more dense LED lights?? I saw some on ebay that were much more densely packed then the ones you are using. I dunno maybe I need to just sit back and think a little lol. I'm just trying to think of ways to keep the lumens up and the heat down in my growroom is all.

Very nice Boss, Didnt realize you were flowering a plant so short and bushy, seems like the new thing to do nowadays

Out with tall and skinny runway models, we want plus size buds

[Boss]

Give her 3 weeks, it will shoot straight up. Only 2 side buds.
