Why use 4 lights to deliver 10k lux? LmfaoHere we have a more complete room here. Put up the Vivosun Diamond liners, have a few still to hang today...
Lowered my table 13 inches. Have all 4-315cmh lights burning now.
You use 4 lights to deliver 10k lux then use AC to control the heat. That's fkn brilliant. Why didn't I think of that?Well,
I have to use these these few insights into lowering lights by keeping a dead eye on temps of leaf.
Then adjusting ac to meet the leaf temp requirements....
That's the plan....
What's the lux under one light at 18"This is to lower lights to a higher lux. But the main objective was to have the proper reflection for side light.
But we are still not on the same page.
These lights will only give so much lux period. A 630cmh is just 2- 315's. I chose to have 2 630's is exactly the same price for 4. But I did so for the spread alone.
I am also using "veg" bulbs with blues. Not normally done that way, every one just uses the "reds" with 3 peaks.
But if you think you can even get 30-40k lux with CMH, its probably not going to happen because they would have to be inches away from canopy.
This is a different grow, I know this. First time with CMH lights, that for some reason have a horrible reputation in some circles.....why?
Might be the lux factor, just not high enough. But again, I am copying Ryboburton as closely as possible. I have no box for 4'x4' reflection. I have a room, to double what he is doing presently. With a few exceptions of trying to make up for the lux losses I will have by simply not using a wall to wall coverage, mine are too spread out.
So what's the problem? I knot guys that get a pound in a 3x3 with one 315w light. Why do you need 4 lights to veg tiny plants?I get 40k
The last thing you need is co2.Again, this is a "comeback from near death" grow. It's not rotted anywhere, the lights have been very forgiving, not like sodiums.
So I have to take small steps at a time, as I see it, to lower lights for higher lux and shorter stem lengths per node. For tight fat buds. And I am using organics.
Got to be careful, plants must be happy via atmospheric, watering, co2 etc etc..
I honestly doubt you get anything.Ryboburton used 7 plants for 2 POUNDS! Hopefully I will get 4 per harvest on my very best day....
