Now the first group to be shown in this grow Journal will be the newest group in the Pheno Hunt!
So we went from the 2x 23W T5’s.....
To this beautiful 120W full spectrum light!
They were just moved underneath the new light yesterday with it being at 50%. I’ll be turning it up slowly over the next week until we’re rockin at full wattage! These little ones were needing more light and more I’m sure this new addition will jump start these beautiful little ones to the next level! I decided to wait for a few days before topping to allow them time to adjust to the new lighting!
I’ll be maintaining updates regularly here so you won’t miss any action! Super excited for this current group of Gorilla crosses and the Purple Punch as well as my new genetics coming in of frost monsters Slurricane / Platinum Punch and OGKB!
Thanks for joining me and let’s get growin!
