The ladybugs on the floor go for all the eggs and mites that have fallen to the ground and the ladybugs I put on the soil gobble up the mites and eggs in the soil then work their way up the main stem of the plant. I put the ladybugs in the soil and on the floor of my grow room. Since there's no extreme heat coming off of the solarstorm they're just flying around and eating mites and eggs as its there only food source in my tent. Ladybugs are working better with LED lights, for one reason they're not flying into the bulb and dying like they would with a hid system.

I bought about 1500 ladybugs and released them all in there and it seems like it's working. Fuck!!!!Īlthough I think it's not fatal infestation, im on day 17 of flowering and did my 3 week flower defoliation few days early so I think there's enough time to fight these little bastards. The fourth is giving me some kind of trouble, it's a sugar cookie strain and it seems like the leaves on top are suffering from some type of stress I can't identify while the leaves on bottom are fine so if anybody out there recognizes anything please drop me a line for right now I think it could be either too much light from this high intensity LED from California Lightworks or I might have calcium magnesium deficiency so I'm going to go get some Cal Mag today and see if that helps the situation other than that this light it's pretty damn impressive. Three out of the four are thriving the white fire og, Super Glue, and purple urkle are thriving after being stunted from being put in pots that were too large for the size of the plants they were, the plans have finally caught up and there is significant growth now. So now my setup includes the new 48x96x96 grow tent, 8000 btu AC unit, 2 oscillating fans, 4 inch fresh air intake fan and my homemade CO2 system which is supposed to leave anywhere from 800 to 1200 parts per million, which I haven't actually measured yet but I have a meter on the way I bought on eBay to prove or disprove the theory if anybody wants to know how I make this makeshift CO2 system reply and ask and I'll make a instructional video.

Also, I live in a very hot part of Northern California and as summer comes it has been getting hotter so I bought a Soleus air 8000 BTU portable air conditioner and actually put it inside the grow tent.

I've made a couple of additions since the last posting, I change my grow tent from a 48x48x96 to 48x96x96 so I doubled my grow tent.

I would like to see what type of results the light brings. I don’t feel like going into detailed specs of the item. For specs of the 400W Solar Storm, you can go to their website. I will be posting weekly, (and posting pics) about any progress and any problems I come across. I do not work for California light works in any sense, this is a very independent review.

I do like how it does have a ‘Veg’ and ‘Bloom’ switch, and a UVB switch as well. Secondly, it does not emits tons of heat like a HPS light. First off, I do admit that the Solar Storm 400W is a very quiet light, it barely makes a noise. I use soil as my medium of grow, and my personal choices of nutrients. I currently have a 4'x4'圆' grow tent, with 9 cannabis plants growing in them.

I am doing my review on the 'Solar Storm 400W' by California Light Works.
