I look forward to see how much a camera makes a difference I went and got a stand with a light ring that my phone will fit in but ,I am not getting good pics. I have a galaxy s21 and I am not super impressed it is great for selfies and long shots but those zoom in details suck. I was considering a camera till I got the LIGHT BUG now all my pennies are going to go to a nice light.
I hope you dont mind another question but with your wattage in the past can you get rock hard buds with a 400-450 watt light?

have a great day

You can get rock hard buds with a 100w led. Its not about the lighting it's more about nutrients and environment. There is only so much light the plant can absorb.

Havent really figured out how to use this camera yet but here are some pics.

Day 58 of flower, getting, close to the finish line. The plan is to chop at day 71 on Nov 25th which is 2 weeks from yesterday so I think the timeline is correct. The plant in the back left sugar puss is finished and could be chopped this weekend but I have no other room to use for drying so she will be waiting until the 25th. The plant in the front left the dreamsicle is just about finished I'd say 5 more days the plant on the top right the apes in space that one is finishing up and will need the full 2 weeks to finish and front right carmelita also needs at least 7 to 10 days so on the 25th they should all be ready with 2 having slightly more amber and those 2 are sativa leaners so it shouldn't be too bad it will even them out since I get a little weird with some sativa strains causing me anxiety.

Looking back on the past 3 journals and I think I made the right decision to scrap the advance nutrients. On this grow I went with JR Peters brand 5-12-26 base fertilizer along with a generic 15-0-0 Calcium Nitrate, and magnesium sulfate aka Epsom salt. I switched from Mammoth P microbes to Tribus original microbes and added Neptunes harvest 0-0-1 Kelp supplement, recharge, and blackstrap Molasses given as a tea every 10 days from veg to harvest and I think it made a big difference in the terpene profiles of the plants. Last grow I had stinky plants, but these current plants have such an improved smell to them and the frost content is much heavier and showed up much earlier on all four plants. I also used dynomyco with each transplant and my roots were the healthiest I have had yet. Not sure If I am sold on the AC Infinity sip pots, they worked really well during veg but I think they have their limitations during flowering. I don't like that I can't easily replace the water in them without using a shop vac to suck up water in res and then refill, I think there should be a drainage system added to these so you can drain them more easily. I also think they should get rid of the grated plastic on top of the fill hole if these grates were removed you could drop a ph pen/ec pen and get a good reading without having to suck up the water and then test it.

That's what happens when engineers design something and never actually use it them selves.
I think that's why some people are building their own.
Make them exactly how you want.
Glad the new nutrients worked well
I used RX in flower this run.
Very pleased with the results aswell.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

OMG what a difference the phone really doesn't tell the story, Now those are some professional looking Pics I can also most smell those trichomes. what camera did get? That is some serious quality pot porn

*on a side note I just did my last B of LA confidential, I never smoked it before, man I loved it ! it looked like the old school columbia Gold Bud. the stuff I had was commercial grown But I was curious about your thoughts after growing it. I saw that is you made your Hash from. I just want to be able

Im Glad you mentioned this I see in a prior grow you used Geo Flora like I am now. Why did you stop using GF ? for me so far Geo Flora is the best thing since sliced bread I used the dynomyco , purpinator and massive . now I do know these weren't recommend as part of a grow plan and they are now. I plan on using it from now on. of course with the SIP That's a different story.

I had ok results with the geoflora, I still use it for all my veggies I wanted to experiment with the Jack's formula and I like the results better I like being able to alter the recipe for my needs if the plants show cali mag deficiency I can add more part b or epsom so it's more of a personal preference both are good nutrients

I find it's best to let them tell me when.
Sometimes they aren't where we expect.
Hope they finish for you.
Take care

Last week when it was warmer outside I had to keep the tent open and the door open to the grow room. My mom decided to pop in on me and she walks up the stairs into my office and says what the hell it smells like a family of skunks got in the house and peed all over the walls. Its stinky as hell
