Sorry it’s been so long since my last post, been a little under the weather. Starting to get back to doing a little more. Here is what I have going on right now.
Somango XXL from Nirvana seeds. Grown in mix of compost, vermiculite, and spagnum peat moss (1/3 of each). I’m using fish emulsion and compost tea along with bloom booster from epsoma along with pH water and so forth.
Today is week 4 day 4 of 12/12 lights and the Somango XXL is doing alright I think. Tell me what you think?
The three (3) plants on the left are White Widow clones that are two (2) weeks into 12/12 light. Charlie Brown’s Christmas tree on the end is a pig that I could not stand to slaughter all at one time, so we are having it a ham at a time, so to speak.

Right, they are 1000w of light power each, low power consumption. That is the reason I choose these, trying to be as economical on my power as possible. Works for me, so far!
Just watch your electricity bill haha those led built off epistar diodes can be tricky. Their power rating is based off the maximum the chips can handle not what the drivers are actually driving them at. I was running pretty much the same setup (2 “1000w” epistar based blurple led) and while they performed ok, they damn near doubled my electricity bill while putting out less light than my 600w hps set up. I see plenty of people growin fire with those style of lights so if its workin for ya, stick with it but when they burn out, id strongly reccomend taking a look at full spectrum led set ups. Diy builds wont cost you much more than your current set up and thats where the real efficiency is at.
But again, just my experience and you didnt ask for opinions lol your garden is lookin excellent man! Keep up the good work!
