So I just got my new 100w hlg last night. I bought it hoping to lower the temperature in my closet.
The light is very bright and is cooler than my 150w hps in a sealed room.
In my closet with exhaust fan running the temperature is only one degree cooler than the hps.
I'm going to do a side by side experiment to see if this 100w little beast can outperform the hps.
I plan on doing a very short veg under 100w MH then when I flip I'll change to hlg -hps and the contest begins.

They should be pretty equal in yield but i expect leafier squatter plants with the hlg.

What color temp board did you get (3500k?)

And what is the footprint being lit please?

Im in to watch!

I got the 3000k. Don't know if my new seeds will be any good. The mom was my avatar pic grown 12-12 from seed. The father is the grandfather.

Should always do test side by sides with clones.

I know, and I will at some point. But this will still give an idea. I have purple chem seeds that I'll clone after this. I just couldn't wait to see what this new backcross does.
