lamsbread Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Time for some pics of my lil' ones.5 days after potting up28th Nov 2012I'm still not an expert with my camera settings,the plants look darker IRL than these ppic which now i see them on screen look a little bit too light.3 in a row 2 from above3 in a row from front2 from the front3 for 1 and 1 for all3 close upview from afar showing larger heated propagator trayThey all seem to be happy, so not much to say.I think the pictures speak for them selves.Until next time brothers and sistersPeace Lams 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dust Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 you have fan directly on them? my first leaves use to do that when i leave the fan on at early stageNow i just don't put fan during the first weeks of veg and the leaves are loving it Extractor and intractor do the job of moving the air without the fan for this period if you have some Everything looks nice anyway man this is nothing ^^ keep those nice babies growing and those nice pics coming Stealthmeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGH 4 LIFE Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Lamsbread your plants are looking great! And if you want your leafs to get really big just mist them like every 4 days and they will get monster size! I do this because I only grow hydro and the plants never have water on them. So I deiced to test it and see what it would do and it works great. It makes the leafs look for water so they get big so that they can find any drops of water that’s out there. You may already know that since you grow in dirt but thought I would tell you in case you don’t. Peace HIGH 4 LFE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamsbread Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 LAMBS !!GOD DAMN, you were quicker on the LED !!! I have never seen anything above 8-Band yet incl. UV and White but more bands may also make more bud...let it grow UrbanNinja and me are also looking for some 600-HPS replacement to cut costs in half.I have to dig into the Nanometers to find out what yours does in addition to the 8-Band league...which also doesnt seem to be a bad choice at all from what we've seen.Anyway, I am definitly following this one and might get back to you in detail if your LED brand is THE one to get.FimHey FimThere are a number of companies out there doing multi spectrum lamps. http://www.elitegrow.co.uk/ This is where i bought my lighthttp://www.advancedledlights.com/ A good company in the usa I have posted vids of thier lights in action in the forumsBoth these companies sell 11 wavelength lights.I planned to do a comparisson of all the grow light manufactuers and thier lights, this is a mammoth task and I am just not finding the time.What i may do instead is do a top ten of lights i would consider buying, this wouldn't take so long, but even then it probably will be in the new year.Thanks for dropping by and joining the ever growing band of followers who want to see what this light can do.peaceLams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lebenszeichen Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 A Wikipedia article on photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) informs us that all beneficial photosynthetic wavelenghts exist in the 400-700nm range. Longer wavelenghts do not carry enough energy for the task, while shorter (UV) are so energetic they cause cell damage. Considering EliteGrow lights' utilisation of wavelenghts in the 760-380nm spectrum and their relatively low price makes me very sceptic about their usefulness as grow lights. A while ago I was researching LED horticultural lighting and I came across LumiGrow (using PAR). Their 325w model is at 1500$ and their 650w at 1900$, which is a huge difference with even EliteGrow's top 800w model at 800£ (=1287$). I'm interested to read your thoughts on this.Great journal and I'm definitely looking forward to any updates you might have, lamsbread. Keep it up and if you can include some info on the temperature and total power draw of your setup, that would be interesting to know too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamsbread Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 @ Lebenzeichen & FIM , Thanks for your comments & for stopping by. Some good questions you asked, maybe you could start a thread about questions you have about LED, i'm trying to try to keep this thread just about my grow journal. I'll be sure to try and answer as much as i can, but December and January are some busy time for my worklife. @HIGH 4 LIFE , miminexus , Bam-Bhole , Smokeythabear & Bigrown Thanks for stopping by and your kind words, they are appreciated @Toke, there is always room bro, we squeeze you in somehow More pictures to come they are nearly 3 weeks old now. As I have said before they are 12/12 from seed, when i spoke to Dust (who inspired me to try 12/12 from seed) he said it usually takes 3 weeks before the plants are mature enough to actually start flowering.So anytime soon i am hoping to start seeing some hairs. Dust if you have anything to add please do. See you all soon and thanks for the good vibes ;DPeace brothersLams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
