Very pretty.
On your next grow, will you use only the LED's for any part? (I take it you're fairly satisfied seeing as you bought another)
How much did those LED's run you?

Yea I am going to go all LED for the 120W...and the 90W was around 375 and the 120W was around 450...a little more expensive...but I like being able to veg 24/0 without worrying about overheating or high electricity bills. Keeps my roomate happy.

So i just changed out my Can Filter to a new, bigger one bc it started leaking smell...I was wondering for those of you who use carbon filters, do you use them the whole grow...like veg and flower, and how long will one sized for your grow room last?

I can get you a photo in about a week...but there are some "popcorn" buds growing on the first node at the very bottom of the stem...

In the next few weeks ill start a pure LED grow with 4 satori seeds from mandala seeds...That way i know about what to expect so i can compare and contrast as far as bud appearance, density, yield, etc. I will do a seperate growlog on that...I feel like LEDs are the way of the future...plus the beginner can (theoretically) get the same effect of a 1000W HPS bulb with an LED light that only uses 300W, greatly reducing the difference in electricity use and heat production...

ok so heres my weekly update on the way to harvest...week 9 in flowering

going very well...getting stinky though...its smelling through the new carbon filter and it get really noticable in the apartment when the lights come on and it gets hot...so i hooked the output of the fan into another carbon filter...so that it runs opposite the way its supposed to...that way the air sorta gets double filtered on the way out...i will probly do it this way...and hope for the best...
here some bud pics...
  
this one goes out to supersiege on his question earlier about undergrowth
 with flash
 and without...
i flushed the soil this morning in preparation of harvesting in the next 2 to 3 weeks...sent about 2 gallons through...until the water coming out the bottom was almost clear yellow instead of reddish brown...
let me know what you guys think, or tell me if im doing anything wrong..

looking real good. You should have some nice smoke in about a month.(drying&curing) Like how frosty they are. Thats what really gets me foaming at the mouth. Keep up the good work.

so how close does it look to being done? By done i guess i mean 1/4 to 1/2 amber trichomes...and I am looking for an estimate...in weeks probly...
Just wondering...Also im looking for best smoke and maybe some novelty appearance, wondering what I should do to help the curing process along. I have currently flushed the soil once, and plan to do so again next week if its not ready to harvest. I have heard that trimming most of the big fan leaves off a few weeks before harvest will help force the plant to convert it's starch stores into sugars, and use up the sugars to survive. I am looking to get rid of as much starch and chlorophyll as i can to let the underlying colors and flavors shine through.
Any help would be awesome...Thanks in advance agmotes165

Glad to help out...all of my grows from now on will be LED...I cant wait to compare the yields of my satori grow (starting in a couple of weeks) with a couple of other satori grows using HID's of similar equivalent wattage.

Why does it matter how tall the plant is?

i noticed growth goes basically to the bottom of the soil...from what ive been told by people who use led and the lighting distributers here is that they dont span out very far and that they dont penetrate very well for larger plants... so by knowing height of plant i know how far down the light is reaching...i think that led could change the indoor grow scene once the price comes down enough to offset the increased number of them that you need, if that is the colas produced are comparable. Of course not having to exhaust heat makes designing a sealed co2 augmented room alot easier which could off set the buds being lighter

Oh yea and i did trim up about half of the fan leaves before your comment supersiege, ooops 
I'll cross my fingers and hope like hell for no bananas! No biggie though...I'll just pinch as many as i can off and hope for the best 
Thanks for the advice and encouragement guys...I really like the LEDs for the power use and the heat generated...I have a SOG log that will be starting up in the next week or two...ill post the link on here when i get that one started...and keep you guys updated on how this one goes...
