LED Growers Forum

Hi peoples here's my sweet tooth vegged under 400 mh now flowering under photon pro 189

Hey penfold, nice to see someone else growing Barneys weed

Tell us more about your set up... I see what looks like an Ecotechnics temp sensor dangling down, but what are you growing it in... is that a bummie bubbler or what?

Hope all goes well with the final push, keep sending pics!

Hi teetee it's a nft system I'm using for this grow thinking about using coco and smart pots 5gallon for next grow do you have any advise with light heighths been in flower only one day so far got light at 26inchs high at mo also thinking about trying some autos any advise would be really helpful thanks penfold

My personal thoughts on NFT are that they are great for when you have a ton of rooted clones from a mature mother plant - just toss them all in and flower right off the bat to get a bunch of nice stalks loaded with buds. Scrog in a tray, without the need for a screen/net!

Example pic - my rotating-channel NFT setup. New channel planted and harvested every two weeks. This made High Times Pix of the Crop.



Smart Pot/Air Pots are great. Though I am a hydroponics person, I have extensive soil experience. Oxygen in soil is the biggest limiting factor in most grows, and these types of pots pretty much eliminate that. Combine with LED and a good nutrient regimen, and you get the turbocharged results you see from many of ledbud's grows, which are rivaling DWC hydroponics grows.

Hi penfold 26" is good for now, next week you can bring led down to 20"
coco and airpot will work nice with Autos, Dutch passion got some nice big autos.
happy growing karma to you mate.
