I just order one of these gadgets
http://www.gemma-led.co.uk/led-grow-lights-rail 100 cm model
Heartbreaking expensive for an cheap bastard like me, but i bought this lamp a year ago
http://www.gemma-led.co.uk/led-grow-light-e27-6-watt
and the result was real kick in my lower back parts , so this year , light treatment for the plants is expanded

 

[POGreen]

I reckon those growlights could be top of the line , mine was just 45 $ each with bulbs.
Unusually grey skies down here made me do this and it seems to work pretty good.
When I transplant I hope one can use the window for that , if not I have to buy 2 more sets of lights.

 

[POGreen]

Three varieties I grow this year , bulbs seems to work just fine

 

[Chicken]

the little seedlings are looking good,

 

[POGreen]

Thanks Chicken , yeah most of them seem to develop good but Black Mammoth seems to need more time

 

[ArizonaDave]

Thanks Chicken , yeah most of them seem to develop good but Black Mammoth seems to need more time

Yeah, but once it roots, it sure takes off! It is a slow starter though.

 

[grgfinney]

Good luck on your grow this year PO not growing any of the same varieties as you this year,but it will still be fun to watch your grow and videos anyway

 

[POGreen]

Thank you gregfinney.
Yeah , I hope there will be videos and loads of pics to come.......

 

[ArizonaDave]

Are you going to grow Brazil Bahia?

 

[POGreen]

Yes I will , but I use the one's from our own forum.The one's I got from Germany were too few.

 

[Jitterbugdude]

Too few as in not many seeds in the packet or too few as in poor germination rate?

 

[POGreen]

Not too many seeds in the packet it is.
Might try to get some more next year , we'll see.

 

[POGreen]

The Bahia seeds I got from Bob is without any doubt the variety that develops best for me , these seedlings are about 10 days old now.

 

[DGBAMA]

That's a fast start.

 

[POGreen]

Yeah , I guess it is , have a whitestemmed Burley and Mopan Mayan just behind.

 

[Brown Thumb]

They are looking Super, are you using lemonade already on them?

 

[ArizonaDave]

Yeah , I guess it is , have a whitestemmed Burley and Mopan Mayan just behind.

Your Bahia Brasil is looking well too! My Brazil Dunkel and Bahia Brazil are just a little ahead of yours, buy by the looks of it, you'll catch up???

 

[POGreen]

BT : Naw , no lemonade at this stage ( like your expression for what it really is ) BTW , Thanks
AZD : I have no idea , as long as they're ready by April/May. Perhaps I will have to do a transplant in the end of this month

We've had a couple of days of very nice weather now but I only exposed them to the sun this morning. 46 F at midday + almost full sun.

I just run my bulbs from morning 'til evening , they light up too much for me to fall asleep.

 

[POGreen]

I have intensified my cultivation by having bulbs on 24/7 , have also thinned out all the varieties and it seems like they are taking off

 

[Jitterbugdude]

PoG, Why have you increased you lights to 24/7? Are your seedlings not growing well? When (the date) do you think you will plant these outside?
