Thank you, I’ll read up on that and try to attempt it

That’s great to hear that your so supportive of your wife.
Gotta start somewhere bulb leds can still do a great deal. What’s your soil mix?
I’m also using screw in LEDs for my new cabinet run.
You want at least 35w/sqft to get you through to harvest. Mine just meets minimum requirements and I may have to upgrade in the future.
Plant is looking good so far, do you plan on up-potting at some point? How big is the pot? Do you know what strain the bagseed came from?
We like lots of details here lol.
Happy growing!
Preferably ALL of the details haha
IF you’ve never took the diffusers off, Here is a handy post by @Mr.Sparkle on how to do it. There’s more than one way, I use a pair of channel locks and squeeze the diffuser loose and pry it off.
And I use a rotary tool (don’t use a rotary tool) lol
I’ve used a bandsaw, a rotary tool, a drill bit and a screwdriver, but I think my most dangerous attempt was a battery powered circular saw lol. However you do it, be safe.
I might need to see a tutorial on this
Update:
I use a mix of perlite, coco coir, organic garden soil, some potting soil I forget the name of, and I dust that with an organic 5-4-4 dry plant food, mix, and then rinse well. I add superthrive every couple days for additional support.
Pot is fairly small, maybe half gallon by the looks of it, and yes, I have a 5 gallon pot waiting. I do not know what strain the bagseed is from, I do know it’s an Indica from my wife’s reaction, and a little less potent than the Gas I currently get for her… since I can’t find a good hybrid around here to save my life… Sidenote: I actually used to deal way way way back when in High School, so about 20 years ago, so I do know quite a bit about strains and effects.
I used a boxknife and a kitchen knife to score the plastic diffusers and then pry them off, btw.
Transplanted to a 5 gallon pail, shortly after, my AC went out, while in the middle of a rainy week with highs at 74-94 this week… definitely not optimal, and my landlady’s repairman won’t fix it while it’s raining… amazingly enough though, the little one is doing pretty good.
edit to add: I transplanted to 5 gallon because I started noticing some small signs of damping off, so uprooted in green light, removed any bad root outliers, dipped in h2o2, planted in the 5 gallon, and added a little superthrive and ph balanced drinking water. Added a lot more perlite with this soil for better water management.
i wish you some lucky with that .
Well they’re just putting along aren’t they?
Looking great man.
Sorta concerned… seems to be imo a zinc excess. I added a cal mag, and added a small bit of zinc as well just to round it out, and that probably was a bad idea… Will probably have to dry out the pot and flush.
Thats just the new growth, looks fine and dandy to me. I always look for lighter colored new growth as a sign of a happy plant thats growing fast. Yellow or brown is bad. “Baby green” as i call it is all good.
