Hey,

So this grow is done and dusted, thought I would add it here as a start-to-finish diary.

 

Substrate : Freedom Farm Premium Classic, amended with Dirty Hands Elemental Blend at 1L per 20L soil and a rooibos mulch on top.

Nutrients : Biobizz (Grow, Bloom, Top-Max, Acta-Vera). Kushy Amino Acids, CalMag and Bud Juice Symbiotics.

Genetics : Mandarin Cookies V2 from Ethos Genetics.

There isn't many pics of Veg, because a cannabis plants looks like a cannabis plant, lets get onto the good stuff.

I harvested just over 600 grams in dry weight in total, 400 grams of decent smokable buds and 200 odd grams of bud and offcuts to go towards some bubble hash.

Well that's that, cheers for now.

Hey, yeah it is the 700w Sunplus LED light, however don't buy one, they shit.

On one of my lights, 3 out of 8 bars have had the 3000k diodes die on it, but like the entire bars.
Sunplus hasn't responded to any of my support request about how do I get replacements. The after sale service is pretty much null and void. I've done 3 grows with these lights.

For a R14 000 light, I would class it as pretty shitty quality.
It puts down the ppfd for sure, but in my own testing, the Lummi 720W LED which costs half the price puts down exactly the same ppfd as this sunplus light with 301H diodes with almost identical heat output.

Luckily I have so many bar grow lights, I just replace it with another one, but still annoying.

Yeah found that to, they also had a hue on the uv. No good. The Lumi Black 720 is the best light out there value for money wize. Good buy..👍🌱🌲🔥✌️
