Lighting Pete's SolarSpec 150s vs Cheese XXL

[AutoFox]

I started with T5 lights it worked great but lacked the density of led or hps. But with T5 you can grow with mixed spectrums. I used reef lights mixed with other spectrums they grew fast as hell but still lacked in some areas and most foxtails I've ever seen on plants. Still incredible smoke though I veg photos with T5 still to this day but I won't flower them with it.

Rewarding is my biggest goal from this new job. Flipping burgers for ten years at a few different places but not making any more than when I started is rough. No sense of accomplishment or pride anymore, I hate going to flip burgers. I'm actually passionate about this and very excited for this new journey....they want to help me get set up for real with a nice sized operation and doing photos. I've already bright them the most impressive autoflowers they've ever seen. They are very old school though and dislikes my leds lol he swears he can match my results with a t5 and maybe even do better. Lol otherwise it's awesome there. Employee lounge in the back where I can medicate all day, chair to sit in whole I wait on customers lol and knowledge and opportunities galore

Awsome opertunaty bro sounds like a dream job

Really happy you got that job dude, it sounds awesome- if you love your job you never have to work another day in your life!
Im a hps man myself but i think your leds will easily out do his t5s. Hope you get a chance to prove it.
@AutoFox some great info man cheers

OK so I pushed way further than expected to see when they needed to be fed...just got done feeding them. They never drooped though...beginning to wonder if I'm over watering/feeding in the early stages and it's effecting me later with little problems and some times big ones...really need to dial in my watering lol working on that currently...but I have each another 500ml cuz my temps are running high during mid day and they are about to take off. Mixed 1liter containing 1ml calimagic, 1.2 ml sensi grow A and B, 1ml voodoo juice and 1ml carboload....hate that are today...just the fan blowing the one over a little in rotation but I fixed that too kinda...

Pete at this stage I water about a litre every 3 days it seems to work well trip used to feed little and often and ran into problems as the lowest roots don't get much feeding try this way it works well honestly

yup once i upped them i just fed again when the pots felt "light" like the weight right before you fed them last
