That may violate federal and state laws... :lol:

I still use HID and I'm NOT an LED expert. All of my LED knowledge is from other parties or research so I can't say from first hand experience one way or another. I also run a medical grow consulting business in SoCal.

Wow! Your making me blush! I will post some more photos in a few days for you. These Hashberry plants are very happy these days especially since they have some new "Rockstar" room mates. They are now one big happy family.

Looking good! Very healthy looking and lots of branching/bud sites! Are you doing any pinching, Fimming, topping, etc? Also, what kind of soil/nutes are you using.

I'll be pulling up a chair, lighting one up and watching with interest!

Hey Maxyield thanks for the interest in my grow. OK here is the scoop. I topped the plants when they were about one month old and haven't done any other pruning since then. I decided to go organic this round and am happy with the results so far. My growing medium consists of sunshine mix #4, local worm castings, composted horse manure, a very small amount of bat guano and some powdered mycorrhizae. The plants are doing well and am very eager to see the final results. I am now growing the plants under a total of 1400 watts of LED lights. That's about it. I hope this helps. Thanks for the feedback!

Cheers

So far I must admit that I'm a little surprised at how well things are going with the LED's. I have a week left before harvest and things are looking good. Overall I would say that the buds are smaller with LED's then with HID's but not by much. They are very dense and absolutely covered in resin. One thing which is really apparent is the buds appear a lot hairier then usual. I'm not sure why that is exactly but at this point it's just an observation. All and all I must say that I didn't expect to see the results I have witnessed so far.
I'm looking forward to the final results. I will post my results once all is accounted for. :mrgreen:
