So do you think i will be fine letting them grow there own and LST late stage if i need to?
 
Hey si if I could chime in on the LST, definitely start it sooner. :smokebuds:
Don't be surprised, you most likely will have to tie down as they grow. Possibly at least once a week. Sorry for jumping in the middle, just wanted to throw some input out there. Before I got my tent, I was a LSTing fool. :smokebuds:

Sorry friends, continue on the thread
 
no serious! someone send me a light and I'll do the 'test' ...in more ways then one!...:bong:
 
To be safe id start on the lst sooner mate,its easier to manipulate the plant as its growing,once that stalk thickens is harder to start bending and tying it,but nothing heavy just a little tie here and there should be ok for the dragons :smokebuds:

If you wanna do a test grow,start writing emails to the LED companies.you may get one whose willing to let you do a test :2cents:
 
just found the thread! where the f have i been? some good advice being spread around!:buds:i just bought another blackstar, number four. another 240w flowering model:dance:so now i have one tent with two 240w bs and the other tent with a blackstar chrome 270w and a bs 135w flowering.:booya:i am sold on the blackstar, because it works and it fits my budget! (poor) i am on fixed disability income, nearly went broke getting my blackstars! the chrome is a definetly a upgrade over the standard bs, but i talked with victor at gotham, got his best pric on the four spot chrome and on a 240w flowering model only had enough for the standard. now in one tent i am mixing chrome and standard blackstars, i run the 135w quite a bit closer, the plants are growing at a very good rate!!some of the prices on these led's are ridiculous, forget the true wattage of what these units produce, and pay closer attennsion to par level's and lumen's less wattage with properly tuned lens' can produce as much par and lumens as other higher wattage unit's. :D:2cents: i subbed up to the thread, i like it!:thread:btw i will alway's supplement my led's with cfl's in both tents i run three 150w equivelent bulb's and switch between vegging and flowering spectrum.:dance:this is a cheap way to boost your lumens and par.:smokebuds:

:jump: i wondered why id not seen you in this thread bro,glad you found it :D and sounds like your rocking with the blackstars,its another fine addition to your grow space mate :smokebuds:
 
Si, Black Dragons don't need LST - they grow short and shunky up to 40 cm, but SD could benefit from LST big time :smokebuds:
