Ppm for autos start of week 4 of flower

I guess the veg has the blue spectrum and that makes the plant very short and compact with lots of bud sites really close together and the bloom has the red spectrum which helps a lot with stretching and bud development that’s what I gathered any way?

Honestly I think this led is pretty comparable to my 600 watt hps at least so far. Supposedly led yield 1-1.5 grams per watt where hps usually only about.5 I know years ago led was inferior to hps but with technology it’s not like that any more

But ya this viperspectra isn’t the highest quality at all but for the price I’m pretty happy so far I guess I’ll know at the end I was thinking next grow doing the same plants but with hps and see what yields better

Obviously those numbers are for top of the line lights and great growers and probably photo period

Thats not really how the veg light works to be honest.
There are alot of factors that come into play, first would be the light temperature in Kalvin, then the light strength in PPFD (this can be adjusted slightly be how far the led is from the plant, if you want more stretch and spacing in your nodes then raise the light bring it closer for busier closer nodes)

Hmmm that’s weird because I had the light 48 inches from the plant then when I turned off the veg I moved the light 36 inches from the plant and they stretched like crazy. I’m sure a lot of the stretching was because they were going into flower?

Possible, so. Many factors that’s why it’s important to have a grow journal

Your welcome.
Yeah I have a notepad for my wifey to jot down all the stats and then I process them and post on here when I’m away at work. Then I do it all when I’m home.

It’s funny because I breed French bulldogs and I keep very in-depth journals for my litters so why wouldn’t I do the same with growing lol

French bulldogs have so many breathing issues :confused: they need to breed a better nose/airway into those dogs to many of them can barely breath or need surgery

Yes and no the better quality they are the less issues usually. I have 6 and none of them need or have needed surgery

People need to stop buying from shit breeders but most people can’t afford good ones so they settle for inferior quality and all that does is keep the bad breeders in business

Personally I think every person should have to go through training and then be aided in the selection of any pet, you should need a licence and approved housing, training and lifestyle for said animal.
All animals should come from breeders that are overseen by the government and animal welfare groups

Well I’m not sure about overseen by the government but there should definitely be laws and regulations that people need to abide by. Believe me we have a pretty extensive process people need to go thru before we sell anybody a puppy. We turn people down all the time. Honestly if people would do their research on the breeder they are considering that would get rid of a lot of the bad breeders. Like I said people buy what they can afford and sadly with certain breeds they can’t afford good quality ones! So it’s just not one or the other it’s both parties involved.

We also don’t sell breeding rights so that helps from keeping someone who shouldn’t be breeding from doing so.

Looks great for a 4x4. Nice!
