HALP! CMH lights- what is going on?

[Thetinman]

Now,
For seedlings and clones. I am using the same light in a separate room.

I know this sounds silly, but that is my goal. To have 1 gallon plants ready to go after harvest....

 

[Thetinman]

Co2 is mostly my breath alone!

Runs up to 1500 ANYWAY. am trying to keep under that. But, there is outstanding root growth.....

 

[Thetinman]

Now I have not explained that I will be transplanting to either 5 gallon or 7. That why I need the spread. Have poles and receptacles ready to have up to 6' with 2 sets of 4" sq trellis.

Total heights around 4' or maybe higher.

 

[Thetinman]

I honestly doubt you get anything.

Well thanks alot..... we will see. And why is that, praytel...

I get you been around for awhile now, but if I have found that this can be accomplished with CMH bulbs.

With temps set by leaf tops, lowering lights for higher lux, while keeping ppm low so it's not a prop...

Not sure what your getting at.....

What I'm getting at is you ignore good advice and do the stupidist stuff imaginable. None of your posts make an ounce of sense. Instead of growing, you should try to get a G.E.D.

What have I discovered with WHAT I was using was not working obviously a week prior.

Reflection made and incredible difference in having light absorption at lower branches. With 4- 315's 8 have a wider more even spread of lux across the canopy. Lowered table near ground, Kept the tray to catch runoff..
Big changes from what I had planned. But I fell in love with the dark greens on plants themselves using white light.
But, I have no schedule. No clients knocking at my door. This is a retirement thing. To keep me busy and to find perfection eventually.

Ok then, just fuck off then. I am taking advice. Might not be ur advice, and now tell me your so called advice. Seems that you want me to throw it all away and go redneck bullshit.
Keep up insulting me and I will call a Harrassment....
8 have explained and am taking way too much 9f your bullshit pal..

Got it?

Sorry folks, wat an arshole.

Finally finished room, like a very bright inside of an aluminum can.
I topped all the rest of the girls. Now that everything is in place i can be alot more aggressive all the way around.

Dropped lights to 48" from tops of plants. Each big girl has their own light. At the same time i am keeping leaf temps under 80°. NOT always an easy thing to do with a dumb ac unit.

Big girls are crying abit yellow... just need to keep em in place for awhile...

Bumped up humidity to 70rh. Ppm under 1500.

Morning,

Ok, looking very good this morning...

The big girls and the little ones are now around 12klux. I swear the reflection is the only thing that's different from when I started this thread, seems to make everything doable....

Some pics...

 

[Thetinman]

Here you will see new leaves comming through already with the topped girls...

 

[Thetinman]

A couple of shots of the Vivosun Diamond liner. Got a good dispersal shot of 1 light. Pretty cool...

 

[Thetinman]

2 hrs before lights out, dropped lights again to 13k lux. A bit of yellowing but by tomorrow at this time will be green once again...

Hello there,

A couple days in, using 2.5' from tops seems to be working well. The big girls have been noiding tightly on main branches.

Topped girls are doing fine, trying to move along.

Gad damn landlord is selling my house. I got 60 days to finish up.

That's life in Cali.....

Ok, her we are just after transplant into 7g bags. Bags are best I think because tap root hits the fabric and ends, not like plastic where it slides around the edges.

But when tap root ends, the a million other roots branch off of just one. Never ending rooting...

Also went to a new media. 3.8cu.yds of Sunshine #4 mixed with Warrior in 1 foot square bags. 2 bags per 3.8 cup yds.

Incredible differences man! Just took off... unbelievable.

But you can see, everybody looks well and happy.
