Or_Gro and the epic smackdown

[smt69]

Also @Or_Gro don't look at me, I don't know this other Jarhead!

was gonna say the same thing cause I'm from hawaii also

anywho $200 dayum/i can imagine the benefits tho

Yep yep, I sure do! It's a Pulse One unit from getpulse.co It's pretty sweet so far, an excellent monitor. Doesn't connect directly to the phone or anything, it runs on the WiFi and I connect a webpage and sign in to their app to look at it. This is what it looks like:

Just monitors, doesn't control anything. Monitors are useful and so are graphs. You can see my vpd is low for once, but not a ton I can do about that just yet because it just rained like a bitch so humidity is way up.

Nice, man! I got to get to tracking temp and rh 24x7...monitoring is the most important part...

How’s it going in general?...two weeks right?

Almost 3 since planted, 2 above ground. They look pretty good, I can throw up a pic if you want to see. The autos and photos have very different leaf structure, it's neat to see side by side. Reported the autos into 1-gal containers last night I think it was. Next time I'll quickly do it outside so I don't make a fucking mess in the bathroom again, lol.

Yeah man, post da pics...including the doghouse you’re livin in after the bathroom faux pas.....i bet she was really pissed off, lol

Well...

And here's the place I'm staying with my water bowl currently...

That is cool i want one...its some kind of smart plug with sensors? I'll check it out

More or less. I have it sitting on top of my bucket lid rn, but when the plant gets bigger I'm gonna figure some way to suspend it in the canopy for best measuring accuracy. Whether I have to hang it from the ceiling or just poke it between some branches, we'll see. They're not cheap, I had a stroke of luck and won mine on a surprise give-away on Dawgo's GrowTube show on YouTube. Each unit is $200 USD, but so far it works pretty perfectly.

Lol, some of my best grow buds are marines...

Now that i’ve got a flowering plant, i shutdown two of the four incandescents in the growroom; and changed out the other two to these:

Hi mate, I am asked for lights like this a lot for viewing without disturbing dark periods. Have you seen any problems that have occurred by using these, also how long do you have them on for when using them

I use them mainly to do stuff in my growroom when tents are closed up, I still don’ really trust them... but better than the incandescents. I haven’t noticed any problems, tho.

Used them the last grow.

@StickyBudHound turned me on to them. Maybe he has some comments about them.

I have heaps of green lights but scared to give them to people because I have read they can mess the plants up. I may just have to give some out and see what happens, tell them that they can use them at their own risk

As long as no red in them, should be fine, but i’d always put the caveat out there. Red is the switch that causes problems during lightsout.

Because the most used wavelengths at the canopy are blue and red its mostly green light that travels deeper inside the canopy. If you have ever used blurples you have seen the reddish tint at the canopy but if you've looked deeper the leaves start to look green again. Easy way to prove that..
When green light is what travels deeper additional green can be used as side or inter canopy lights. As we know green is the most refected wavelength so when green light is coming from above a big part of it will be reflected before it can travel deeper.
Currently I have a few 5k sidelights in my little 3ft area and the 1st test was very promising. Have not tested green LED's because of their poor efficiency but I would expect a pretty similar effect.
I would recommend them to use them that way. Especially with higher(thicker) canopies it should help to reduce larf and get more bud out of the lower areas.
