Hey guys I'm back to start my new Indoor DWC LED grow journal. If you haven't already seen my massive plants from outdoor last year you can check it out at 500 Gallon Smart Pot Outdoor 2014.
Now onto the good stuff. My goal for this grow is 1 gram per watt with LEDs. Plants will be growing in DWC setup. I will be taking clones off my mothers that I grew from seed from the Cali Connection seed bank. I originally started with 7 818 Headband clones and 1 Blue Dream Haze clones. Unfortunately one of the 818 Headband clones was barely getting any light and getting towered by other plants. Made decision to take it out to get me more room. So there will be 6 818 Headbands and 1 Blue Dream Haze in this run.
Nutrients - I will be using only advanced nutrient products. Sensi Grow A+B, B-52, Sensizym for Vegging. For Flowering I will be using Connoisseur A+B, Bud Candy, CarboLoad, Sensizym, B-52, Bud Blood, and Final Phase for Flushing.
I took clones on 11/18/2014 from my mothers. Started getting roots within 4 days in the cloner. Roots got over a foot long by 12/2/2014 with only using 5000K 10 Watt LED light. Transplanted on 12/16/2014 into the DWC Buckets. Added 5000k 50 Watt LED Light, and 6500k 24 Watt Fluorescent because I did not have enough lights to cover entire canopy at the time. 1/6/2015 I took out Fluorescent because it broke, and added 2 100 Watt equiv 5000k LED Bulbs that only use 9 watts each. 1/16/2015 Added the GalaxyHydro 180 Watt 9 Band Spectrum LED Light, and removed 1 100 watt equiv LED's.
Total Power draw is 168 Watts for 300 Watts of LED's. 240 LED Watts for Flower Room, 60 LED Watts for my mothers.
9 Band Spectrum = 430~440nm, 450~460nm, 610-615nm, 620~630nm, 650~660nm, 730nm, and white, IR, UV 380 - 400nm
I grew the 818 Headband outdoor's last year in 500 Gallon Smart Pot and the 818 Headband finished at just over 13 feet. I'm very excited to be do it indoor's because I was so impressed by the outdoor of it.
Sorry for 2 months late journal start, but I figured I should at least get journal up and going before I start flowering.

Just Added 180 Watt UFO Yesterday. Plants clawed a little because I sprayed with high dose of Azamax to make sure they are clean before flowering in a week. Loving the 180 Watt UFO Super bright cant wait to see the buds. 1/17/2015

Only Using 168 Watts for 300 Watts of Led's. I don't know what happened to the 1 on it looks like backwards L. Meter is correct tested with my other meter that is used for running DWC and Fans. 1/17/2015
