Summer Break Is Over - GG4 Auto

[Komplex180]

After a long hot SoCal summer, I️ finally started my next run.

On today's menu, Gorilla Glue 4 autos by Short Stuff Seeds, via attitude seeds.

They will be living in 2gal pots, filled with Royal Gold coco(red bag), in a 3x3x6 tent.

For lighting, we have a 135w Quantum Board at 3000k. One 55w Cree COB at 3500k will be added in week 3, and a second in week 4. I️ know, it's know, I️ have it backwards, but I️ initially wanted to use just the 135w for the entire grow so now I have to wait to get the 3500's.

Shot of the Quantum Board

Germinated using the paper towel method, and the root riot method. 4 out of 5 have popped so far.

Here they are in their final homes

Day 7

And then there were 3. Chopped one that was slow to grow. Opened up the rockwool and I guess a pressed too hard when mating the two pieces together.

However, the 3 remaining girls look pretty healthy. The oldest of the bunch is starting to pale out and seems ready for something other than water and roots excelurator.

Here's a couple close ups

We are now at Day 7, AGAIN!

The oldest of the bunch didn't make it. She stopped growing and just did not look promising at all.

Also had this scrog lying around, so we're gonna give it a shot. Will top them in 11 days.

I'm in, I can't wait to see how those plants grow under that light!

 

[SwAggNiFiCeNt]

Yes. This is what I'm talking about. Love the light. And the GG....i am in

 

[MsSinful]

I think 3000k full cycle is perfect with this light.

Thanks for the assurances folks! I couldn't stop thinking about it

. did you have to put the light together yourself or did you pay that fee to have it done for you?

Hey sin!! Subbed up for another awesome grow

Put it together myself. Was pretty intimidated at first, but after watching a video I found it pretty simple.

The only thing I had to do that was actually technical was strip 2 wires. Everything else is plug in, clamp down and screw on.

Hi! I'm so glad you stopped by, I'd love to see this journal get some traffic. It's a great set up komplex.

Aw that's a relief to hear. I've asked a few people before you who thought it would be simple to do but it's never looked simple to me lol.

If you decide to go that route, here's a link to assembly

Honestly took about 10min.

It's really straight forward. I grabbed 2 qb120s no heat sink required running them at what's supposed to be their max 60 watts a pop. 100 bucks for over 120 watts of choice lighting is a can't beat.

Just re did my hanging set up

Any questions just post or pm ✌

I was thinking about that for early veg!

How do you like it?

Love it! 2 would cover a 2 by 3 with ease. Hlg claims 2 by 2 for veg and 1 by 2 for flower. I would think 6 would kill it in a 2 by 4 flower tent. And I think I got mine for 29 a pop. Drivers run around 15 if you do your shopping around. Can't beat it
