I set my light at like 18" and then I turn it to match at particular DLI like 40. My light eventually can't go up so it may get lower than 18.Ok and what about distance? How far from the canopy is it? Does dimming affect light penetration? I figured I could get similar results running it dimmed and closer to the canopy instead of full blast at (wutever the recommended height). I wanna know who else may do this and wut kind of results they get. Gram per watt? I wanna dial this thing in…
Ya I need it familiarize myself more with DLI so I can dial in my lights but I know I have more than enough tho. 2x8 1/2ft closet with 2x 240watt qb and 1x 300 watt Mars fc-3000. I replaced my 150 watt viparspectra with the Mars and kept running the 150watt my plant was originally receiving but next run I’m gonna push this thing to see the results I can get. I’ll be running co2 the first few weeks of flower so that’s when I’ll be pushing high light intensity. I’ll also be growing bigger plants one per light so that’s 3 big ones under a potential 780watts of light.I set my light at like 18" and then I turn it to match at particular DLI like 40.

I think a higher light with equal par at the canapy to a lower light has more penetrating power. Maybe based on the power of halving relative to distance.
I try and have a level canopy to utilize the canopy area in the maximum zone.

That’s wut I’ve heard at what distance? Coco for cannabis.com I believe had it tested at 18inches? 50% and it was giving readings of around 600 across the board. Thought about running it dimmed and just closer to the canopy. Anyone run their LEDs dimmed thru the whole grow? I want to know there techniques if so….
Will be very cool to seeI'm on day 3 of flower and it is about 20-24" above canopy at 70-75%. I am gonna increase throughout flower, I might max out at 90-100% for a couple weeks then drop it back down the final 2 weeks. Not exactly sure yet, it depends how the plants respond.
I have a battery powered pump I use when I mix my nutrients. I think it's a 7 gallons tote. It's a half mama cube. 8x8x4". This is larger than a 6" cube which I used in my last grow. Hopefully the automatic feeding will avoid the lockout I had before, I just want to grow a harvest that doesn't have issues. Every one of my grows has issues. I learn something every grow.I don't see any problems, might be hard to remove the runoff from inside the buckets. Unless you have a plan already to pump it out.
How big is the cube and bucket? 6" cube and 8 gallon bucket?

Yeah. I'll start a thread on it when I get going. I'll post the tent and MacGyver humidity setup. I think I will try and mainline the cresendo and start off low and wide and then try and get a good taller canopy going and goal will be 12 Oz. (Gotta set the goal high.Yea I feel ya, hard to have a grow without any issues, what's important is being able to correct it quickly. Are you gonna start a diary on the new grow?
That's one of the reasons I use rock wool. Any problems and I just remix my nutes as long as my ph is in control. I'm gonna run the pumps for enough run off to minimize or eliminate the salt build upYea I feel ya, hard to have a grow without any issues, what's important is being able to correct it quickly.

I fimmed/topped it at around the 5th node and then scrogged the rest.Did you top that rose or just scrog it?
the only problem i see with that is when the roots grow out of it and go into the holes which will evenly plug up.I am starting on my top drip tote. How's does this look. Does anyone see any foreseeable problems with this design?
Also I raised the blocks on some chopsticks to give it a little more clearance to drain the block. I think when it was flat on the tote lid the block held to much water drowning my early sprouts.the only problem i see with that is when the roots grow out of it and go into the holes which will evenly plug up.
