This grow will be my first using the SolarStorm from beginning to end.
I germinated 10 Flave seeds and planted them in 1 gallon soil pots. I will transfer them to 3 gallon pots as soon as they show their sex.
Week 1 started 30 Sept: one plant died while the other 9 grew well. Mouse trap killed 1 mouse before it could eat the seedlings, they like to dig them up and eat them. Week 2 started 7 Oct: started fertilizer in small amounts, stretching is not a problem, the stalks are thick and the leafs are healthy and full. With no stretching problem I will not be using the FIM technique and will allow them the grow normally.
(FYI: I'm going to move both of your journals to the CLW section...)
Disclaimer: 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.
