Day 72 / Day 20 of flower So I took some photos last night after doing a light defoliation to remove some leaves which were stopping light from reaching bud sites and after a nice watering. Finally, some proper updates of each plant. Bagseed: Bruce Banner: CBD Critical Mass: GDP: GSC: Chocolope: Then below are some pics of the plants in the tent, they're really crammed inside there. Having 6 in that small space is not ideal I feel it will affect my yields. Especially without a scrog net - next time I would like to use my scrog net, I have an idea now on how to water the ones in the back with the scrog net. Also I took measurements of two of my tallest plants. CBD Critical Mass: Bruce Banner:

After deciding to get rid of my one bar light I ventured onto building my own. Material: U-Connect steel frame 25mm + corner angles cut to 1.2m a piece. 10 * 31mm UChannels cut to equal sizes (even though i didnt at times) 20 * Bridge lux eb series gen 2 strips (you can go for more efficient lm301b strips or other samsung strips, these were dirt ship 8$ a strip) their lengths are 1.1m, you can opt for different strips or smaller lengths. 2 * LRS drivers 350 Watts 36v (I plan to change to HLG at some point, to bring them in line with the other HLG 600's I run). 1 * 25m Thermal adhesive tape. Cost cant really remember as i needed a few things like tools, strips and power supplies + customs came to around 4k (free shipping) UChannels were cut, and sprayed with hi resistant heat spray paint (you don't have to do this, I did it for fun, and to try hide the horrible scratches on the channel, I have no noticed any reduction in thermal conductivity), connect it bars were setup into a square shape as depicted below. JB Weld was used to secure the channels to the frame, I tried pratley rubbish and it did not work, this was allowed to cure and set for 24-36 hours. The strips were laid with the double sided adhesive thermal tape After curing, frame was resprayed with the high heat spray paint, I was going to sand down the joints on the epoxy but i got lazy, I was also going to grind down the edges, but decided one day... (most likely never). A strip was run on the test bench. Strips were laid on the frame. Test run of strips Another test run In its new home, running at 150 watts per side, total of 300+- in all, potential running of 700 (true wall watts) I still need to get some 3.4mm bolts and securely hold strips to the channels as I got some dirt underneath a few and noticed the adhesive coming loose.

Some shots before the lights went on day 45. I also took a bunch of clones Big Budha Cheese, Jillybean, Jolly Rancher and Zsweet Inzanity. Started some seeds 1 Aztec Rain already came up and 3 Blueberry Indica x Heribei some of these will go outside.

Amazing what one can do at home with a little bit of research and some decent DIY experience, Best LED build iv ever seen... Shop bought or home made... Excellent work man!

looks good and the plants seem to be loving it too

Clones cut and put into soil directly and 4 put into jiffy pellets. Lets see which get better results.

I agree 100%, that scrog is looking tops. The canopy is extremely uniform. I really need to use my scrog net next time!

Yea, lighting makes a huge difference! Be it the sun or the quality of your grow lights, never something you want to skimp on!

beautiful ScrOG

Could these be pollen sacks I see? Will monitor and check again on Saturday. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Chjoooo looking to get a good yield there! Very nice, healthy looking ladies there.

Awesome good work

Looking great! Eager to see the bud grown under these lights!

Sorry dude... That's not so cool. The rest of the plant will be hundreds. Iv snapped 2 beautiful colas of mine too in the last week... Trying to see if I can save them and clone them... Like I said before... You would normally start much sooner and have really great results.. Just take a look at my comp grow and the scrog I and many others have going... Really the way to grow indoors How's some more pics... The plants must be pretty happy since the scuffle?

Hi guys, From Cape Town, busy growing my first experimental indoor crop. Indica. Going good so far... 4 plants 4 weeks into the flower stage... Hoping to learn from the wise men on the forum! Mr B

nah dude, that part died completely so i cut it off. Hope she doesn't fuck out too much.
