LED+CFL125W-grow__HPS400W-flowering SweetSeeds Competition Topic
Greetings ! Friends and cultivators of God´s favourite plant !
In this topis I would like to introduce you my grow room, future flowering room and also what is the most important the plant I take care about.
Unfortunately, due to my personal issues I had to left my growroom without watering for almost 2 weeks, so that I lost one wonderful Brainstorm plant which was about 3weeks before harvesting, and furthermore only 2 of seeds that you have sent me survived...and I didnt even know which models did it because when I saw the disaster I didnt care about names...
I feel very sorry about that...but 2 survivors are looking good..and I intent to let them longer time on 18/6 and make some clones to better fill in space..
Before this would be possible I´ll keep sending photos on which there are 3 other plant in order to fill in space and not sending almost empty 2plant growroom.These 3plant are clones from dead Brainstorm plant and according to rules of competition they shouldn´t be considered when judging etc.
Set-up(Grow room):
Genetics:
BlackJack/MohanRam/WildRose
Lightning:
CFL 125W RED,
+ LED light
= 120x RED 625nm
= 60x BLUE 455-475nm
= 60x YELLOW 585-595nm
+ 10W Daylight (mostly for clones)
Ventilation:
1x PC fan 0.25A exhaust
1x PC fan 0.16A input
1x PC fan 0.11A on D.I.Y humidifier
Nutrition:
Krystalon-START N:P:K = 7:2:6
Cactus fertiliser N:P:K = 4:6:7
+ Guano N:P:K = 2:15:2

Hi T3katZzeR!!
Welcome to the 1st Sweet Seeds Grow Diary Competition, here in this great forum Grower.Cz :)
Looking good so far my friend, nice setup you've got there, it will be interesting to see how this sweets do with your LED lighting system.
Is it your first LED grow?
See you around my friend, hope the plants grow up good during this week ;)
Sweet smokes!

Ahoj T3katZzeR,
Posílám +K za pěst s LED technikou , moc groverů LED světla zatím nepoužívá pravděpodobně pro pořizovací cenu svetla , minimální dostupnost světla v obchodech a asi pro málo skušeností s tímto typem osvětlení.
Určitě budu sledovat také pro vlastní poučení a pokud by bylo možné dát foto LED světla s popisem kde je to možné zakoupit a za kolik , případně jestli jsi světlo sestavil z jednotlivých komponentů.
Přeji dobrý růst a vždy s úsměvem !

Hi T3katZzeR,
Sending +K a fist with LED technology, LED light power Grover has probably not for the purchase price of light, minimum light availability in stores and for some little experience with this type of lighting.
Certainly I will also watch for their own learning, and if it were possible to give a photo LED light with a description of where it is possible to buy and for how much, or if you're light assembled from individual components.
Have a good growth, and always with a smile! |

Hi tommy,mimacka, and everyone else involved in growing!
@tommy,mimacka:
In fact, yes, this is my first grow using LEDlight.
I bought LED stripes from eshop(LED-tech.cz I guess) while I was growing mother-plant of these 3 BS clones I am already growing. So this would be first generation completly grown under the LED.
Parameters of LED light are following:
Total lenght of stripes: 4m,
2m RED(120diod) ( 620-630nm ) 680lm/2m
1m BLUE(60diod) (455-475nm) 130lm/m
1m YELLOW(60diod) (585-595nm) 60lm/m
every meter contains 60diods,
and total power consumption is 14,4W/1m= 57,6W,
powered by ATX PC source.
that doesn´t seems to be very much but you have to consider fact that light emitated by them is very efficient for plants.
+ I am trying to get another 4m of 660nm ULTRAred diods which are probably the best for plant´s growth but so far I couldn´t find them anywhere.
I built it according to this artcile from weed-forums:
"
Quality refers to the wavelengths of light. Meaning the arcs and spacing of photons. These spacings are measured in nanometers (nm). The photosynthetic pigments used to capture photons have different carrying capactities for different spectrums. The most abundant and well known photosynthetic pigment is chlorophyll, which comes in type a and b. Other important pigments used are phycocyanin, carotene, xanthophyll, and anthocyanins.
Their maximum absorption peaks are: Chlorophyll A: Absorbance Maxima: 430nm and 662nm peaks Chlorophyll B: Absorbance maxima: 453nm and 642nm peaks Phycocyanin: Absorbance Maxima: 623m, and 637nm peaks Carotene: Absorbance Maxima: 450nm and 478nm peaks Xanthopyhll: Absorbance Maxima: 494nm peak Anthocyanins: Absorbance Maxima: 525nm peak
So in order to maximize photosynthesis by stimulating the photosynthetic pigments as much as possible and thus providing maximum energy we need to provide: 430nm, 450nm, 453nm, 478nm, 494nm, 525nm, 623nm, 637nm, 642nm, and 662nm."
So far so good, both SweetSeeds are doing well, in few days I am about to add first half-dosage of KrystalonSTART to give them what they need to stay fit :D
@mimacka:
LEDsvetlo pozostava z bočneho krytu z PC na ktore som nalepil pasy s diodami a napajam to cele zdrojom z PC.
Daju sa zohnat v eshopoch, cena je okolo 250kč/1m.
videl som s prikonmi cca 5,11,14 a 19W/1m pasu=60diod,
myslim ze na rustovou fazi uz je to vcelku pouzitelne.
+ mam rad moznost zostavit si potrebne vlnove delky dle sebe a celkovo experimentovat :)
Priste udelam vic fotek i samotneho svetla.¨
Zatim aspon tyto co mam.

Was busy lately, so here is quick update.
Both of my CFL are broken, so the growroom is enlightened by LEDlight only,
SweetSeeds that survived turned out with all probability to be MOHAN RAM(85%indica) and WILD ROSE(65%sativa).
I am working on new box with 400W HPS placed verticaly so the results could be more interesting :P
The plant that I consider to be WILDROSE is INCREDIBLY aromatic, it smells more during the grow phase than much bigger Brainstorms that are 2nd week on 12/12.
Well done, SweetSeeds surely knows-how :) |

Very nice my friend, thanks for the update.
They seem to be doing well in general. Good luck with it, I'll keep passing by, kind regards,
