Lighting BRIMAN RUNS THE SUPER HELIOS PRO 6

[Teetee]

Good luck mate, nice to see a clean set up all ready to fill up with lovely fat buds.
I still get out my trusty old Helios 6 if I need a bit of extra lighting, the trichomes really get juicy under them!
All the best!

Thanks guys, I like clean! Sativas do that to me! 100% germ rate! 5 in germ and 5 up today, so today is day 1! Nothing exciting to see, just babies. We are up and runnin! 2 in one pot and 3 in the other. I'll wait a week and see which ou tof each pot looks like it has the "stuff" and I'll be down to 1 in each pot!

week 1 and the babies are sprouted and I need to make a decision on which ones to pull, as in each pot.....There can be only one!


Temps are steady at 78*F and humidity at 42%, so we are right on track! Hand watering every 2 days and on day 20, I'll fire up the air domes and Rez and watch these things get out of control. Right now, I have the led at 1/2 power at 30 inches from the tops of the pots and I will lower that a bit this next week. Upon firing up the rez and airdomes, I will put the panel at 30 inches, hit both switches for full power and we will see some stunning growth!

The plant on the left gotta go! The one on the right looks better to me.

Now this pot has me stumped! I know the little fella on top is a gonner, but the 2 lower babies I am not sure which one needs to be pulled. I may wait on those two and make that decision next week and see which one looks better.

Any questions or comments, fire away!

Week 2 and these girls are gathering their root structure and I will be turning on the autopot rez and air domes next Wednesday, raising the Super Helios 6 to 36-40 inches and bloooooooooooow these ladies up!Bangin out a couple nodes, but still little things. We shall fix that shortly! temps are solid at 76*F and the humidity is @ 44%. Looking forward to next week and watching these things take off! Any questions of comments, fire away! Looking like we have similar phenos or twins. Lets hope for happy, healthy girls to the end!

I always use keep Super helios 2ft from top of plants. they grow faster when they are at 2ft.
maybe bring them down a bit just suggestion mate.

Thank @Taipan! New leds have a learning curve and I appreciate the help! Will drop them today and I am going to fire up the rez and airdomes this morning and hang on!

Week 3 update and I filled the rez with a lite feed veg solution with 3 gallons and will check it tomorrow. Fired up the airdomes, extraction fan, and the circulation fan and the plants are dancing and will soon be loving life! I also turned on both switches on the led and they are getting all 600 watts at 32 inches from the top of the plants and I will adjust as needed. New panel and I dont want to hurt these girls. With the rez and airdomes going, the plants will grow up to the led and do well. On to some pics...
