I am really considering doing cmh 315’s with the prices so low on them. I can buy 3 sets with reflector ballast and bulb for the price of one top line led. Even with bulbs every 18 months i have to consider them.

I think with 3 in my 7’ x 3.5’ area i could match the 2 600’s. Or if i cram 4 in it would step things up some.

If your interested at some point, I've got 2 of these I'll probably give for a stellar deal if anyone wants them. I used them one grow, I think I might have used one of them for 2 grow, but the bulbs are all new, some are still in the packages. Ballast do 1200 watts, huge fan, all really nice equipment that I grew some monster plants with, but the heat and noise (from the fan) was just too much for me. I live in a small apartment building, with neighbors, so I downgraded back to the LED's.

I just want this crap out of the house, TBH and would give a great deal. (just offering, no pressure). There are 2 complete sets, both 1200's w/hps and MH bulbs for each (and extras). I think there's some better quality DE bulbs around here as well.

Appreciated but cant use double ended with my low cabin ceilings. And i am moving away from hps and air cooled fixtures.

Now thats a plant in need of a support group lol. I'm mean that in the way it runs thin lanky branches and bigger bud structure.

I would have liked to see it with the added silica. She never stopped growing until after 10 weeks.

I may be rolling onto gavita bro. I have about a month before I pull the trigger but if your interested in an HLG 600 v1 for about 300 US including the shipping euns 60w to 640w i would do that. Only for you cause you know your my debate brother. Well and maybe I wanna see you grow under LED just a lil bit you know lol

Yeah i kinda think that would make a big difference. That structure would be a nightmare for me. But she sure produces.

I've found support really is essential whether using silica or not. You get stronger stems, but I also find I get slightly heavier buds when I use silica. And a lot of indoor bred strains seem to lack the naturally robust structure to support heavy bud growth. Some do but a lot dont.

I know when I was going through some shit last year I had a crop that was really poorly supported, and even using a lot of silica, most of my buds were hanging upside down by the end lol.

Most underrated nutrient out there. Now that ppl know calcium is so important.

She is one of the culled clones i had been saving. A ch9 og kush x trainwreck. A half pound every time of super potent uplifting lemony goodness.

Alas. No more. Except for the 5 jars i have. ;-)

4 runs. No worry when I get the gavita which by the time I do will likely be 2 months because its special order. If you want it I can send it and just work it out whenever. In fact do a grow and if ua don't like it just ship it back. Thats probably the way we both feel good about it. We are only out the shipping if it doesn't work out for ya.

I usually put a stake in the middle of the pot in anticipation of tying up branches. Pinch and bending and then supporting definitely increases bud size and weight with most plants i have encountered.

When i got lazy about it my yield went down.
