Carty's New Mars Hydro TSW-2000

[johnnyrr435]

It's pretty cool when a company asks you to test their new light and quite an honor. Maybe they seen my bud production and new it could be improved upon.. a lot. lol.

OTW soon is a TSW-2000 LED grow light assembly from Mars Hydro which will upgrade my current light to almost twice the power.

The most convenient feature of this new light is the dimmer switch
View attachment 289468
made easily accessible. which gives me the ability to slowly get used to this stronger light.. but you know I'm gonna
max it out during flower huh? hehe.

I'd like to make this very 1st grow with this light something that stands out, so the question is, do I grow Autos or break out 6 feminized photo periods, which I now have some elite
genetics to choose from.

So, I'm going to put up a list to see what you people would like me to run ok...

Autos Feminized
Gambian F7 Auto by Rollit
Blueberry F2 by Alaskagrown

Goat & Monkey Seeds Feminized photo periods
Probation Violation (Dawgs Waltz x Triangle Kush)
Blue Angel (Hells Angel OG x Blueberry Indica)
Blue Triangle (Blue Dream x Triangle Kush)
.......... few more on the way to choose from ..........
Hoping for, BomminGranny & Dubble Trouble

I'm truly leaning towards running some photo periods on this 1st run. 6 feminized seeds in 2gal felt pots be a nice start.

The new light will be replacing 3 lights I currently run in my larger tent. Going to make life much easier for this handicapped man..

From unpacking the new light when it arrives to hanging it up and maybe even finishing the current grow under it if it arrives soon.. this is gonna be fun so stay tuned for an in
depth look into this new light..

I just had 5 hells og haze sent to me, should be a brain ringer!

Oh nice... have a few with the HAOG in it from Oldsog.. Blueberry x HAOG ...

good luck with them.. I just received a strain called: Dude, Where's my Taco.?
Amnesia Haze x Taco Gelato fem's...

Life has been a bit crazy for me lately with the cancer scare to the wife needing double carpel tunnel surgery on her hands.. getting old not for wussies.

If not for Mars Hydro sponsoring me with this awesome equipment, I say that because it's more then just the TSW-2000 light, but a nice inline fan/filter/ducting setup to keep temps, odors and dust under wraps.
the light is soo perfect I can put the Molokai outside the tent looking in and grows just fine. simply rotate her few times a day..

So, wanna take a peeksy. Molokai #5 x WR on left, D'Grape Fire on R/F, Urkle x WR at R/R

Goat & Monkey's Urkle x White Runtz day 50ish

Oldsogcoc now my only photo period seed sponsor, this is his D'Grape Fire fem.. A beautiful plant and with this being around day 51, she's got plenty of time to put on some weight.. frosty girl

 

[Carty]

And did I tell you guys... we had babies. so proud, sniff sniff. LOL>

Right after my buddy Matt of Goat & Monkey passed away, my thoughts were to do a few grows of his stock in his honor.. I started with these 2, the Molokai #5 x WR Matt said was one of his favorites...
and his Urkle x WR.. now added some babies to it in 3 ECSD x Triangle Kush, 1 Runtz x White Runtz.
along with these 4 I have snuck in one of my new autos to test.. STOMP. Gabagoo x Sour Stomper

STOMP in L./R with ECSD being the other 3.. and Runtz x WR at the R/F.

STOMP by Carty... tester

Runtz x WR.. a week behind all the others as she was put down to replace an ECSD that died off..

Up potted them last night, 2 days before I removed the round cotyledon leaf and the first single bladed pot leaf.. overnight after this they shot up 2".

 

[Carty]

The darn Molokai #5 x WR is just a beast and is out growing my tent.. this is why I usually avoid Sativa dom strains.. so, I did an old bending technique a friend uses and said to me, remember, it's never to late to bend them over.. so , I did... hahaha

 

[Batman67]

That's some Brokeback Mountain so of thing going on there

 

[Carty]

hahahaha... From the horses point of view..

I think I need to invest in the 1ft height extension.. just that extra foot would really help give me the oppurtunity to run more Sativa dom strains. I love the high they produce. Sometimes you just get tired of
everything yo smoke makes you tired or too relaxed.. so to avoid this i tend to harvest plants a wee bit early before they produce the lethargic high..

 

[Batman67]

That's what works for me. I'd rather get that uplifted feeling, have a giggle, sing alone whilst my son plays guitar. Then a smoke of the couch bound 10 minutes before bed, otherwise I can't get up the stairs to go to bed

 

[Carty]

Sounds like a great time bro... check out this D'Grape Fire.. just love this strain.

I've got a strain you gotta have.. "Dude, Where's my Taco". Amnesia Haze x The Taco hehe. save you some.

let's take a peek at what this light is doing for these plants.. I got it raised up, use the dimmer switch, somedays I even dim it down the last 1/2hr to mimic sunset.. half hour after lights come on at 7am, I
wait half hour then dial it back up..

Up next I'm going to try to run 8 Bubblegum Autos Regs in the 2nd tent, I believe they will catch up to these and all finish within weeks of each other for a nice little harvest.. both tents on 12/12 to avoid hermies in my photos..

8 Bubblegum Seeds are soaking... time to go get soil. thanks for stopping by.. remember to visit Mars Hydro
