You end up with tooooo many plants, ask me how I know. LOLThe hardest part of growing? The culling process. How do you do it when they are ALL healthy?

Thanks. Their cooking right along, lately. A little better than last years, at this time. But not much...just bushier.Lookn goooood!
You are gonna need more fencing. And the side branches are gonna grow like main stalks. I see many supports in your future.Thanks. Their cooking right along, lately. A little better than last years, at this time. But not much...just bushier.

Gray, I have had a few plants within about 100’ of my outdoor spotlights. I had one reveg on me. Truthfully I’m not sure if it was the light or the lineage. I ended up parking a trailer in front of th, put a blanket on the lay down tailgate, obviously locked in the up right position to block the spotlight. It seemed to work. Did not deal with any re-veg and it didn’t affect the sun to them.Here's ma problem so wanting practical experience, I've done the math (well xl did it) but I need practical experience.
I have a 250W HPS Security light 20-25 feet up and about 145' from where I want to put some plants. It does light up the area very very faintly where I want to put a couple. It's a good grow spot because of hours of sun and within my fence line to keep deer out so that's the dilemma.
So for all you suburbanite growers how much does your neighborhood light pollution screw with you and for all you country folk what's the closest you have a light source that cast even faint light where plants are and does it screw with the plants?
if you can read a book than it’s too bright,.Here's ma problem so wanting practical experience, I've done the math (well xl did it) but I need practical experience.

I have his paper on that and 10 nanomoles (0.01 µmol ⋅ m⁻² ⋅ s⁻¹) is his benchmark which equates to 2-3X more than a full moon on a clear night. But in practical application terms I'm trying to get "mine was 50 feet and don't fucking do this" or "mine is 150' and it's all good."Ask your pal!View attachment 2683136
Looks like you are gonna need nets for the outdoor girls.Outdoor update,.

The outter fence will be going up soon, very soon. Then the domes, later.You are gonna need more fencing. And the side branches are gonna grow like main stalks. I see many supports in your future.
i hate nets but probably do the same as last year for support,.Looks like you are gonna need nets for the outdoor girls.
I think busby said a large print book. And plants dont seem to see reflected light as well as they see direct light. So a full moon shining on a snow covered field seems to be invisable to them. Lumens but not enough lux. This is where lux comes into play.I have his paper on that and 10 nanomoles (0.01 µmol ⋅ m⁻² ⋅ s⁻¹) is his benchmark which equates to 2-3X more than a full moon on a clear night.

Or as @GNick55 if you can read a book it's too bright...so guess who's reading View attachment 2683137 to the deer tonight. Thanks Nick!

And spectrum comes into play too and the interplay of red vs far red vs infrared and HPS spectrum is well identified as containing red and infrared. And that's all well and good but in the end, KISS.

And....View attachment 2683138 so I'll go read a book in the soft orange glow, if I can.and flag off the no no spots while I'm out there. I have got to get these crack a lackn really soon. Tick tock!
Just get a real plant going!
