They looked a little hungry there in veg, from what I can see they are looking good now though. You should be able to increase your yield by installing a shade reflector on that bare bulb. 3 foot shades are about 30 bucks here, you could also check the hydro shop for a used one., which would help direct the light down towards your canopy.

Nice! How long of veg?

would a 4 foot parabolic
Horizontal bulb be my best choice ?
My plan is to have 4 of these setup in one room harvest every two weeks

In veg they only received b52 and phed tap water

I Like Your Profile Pic

Yes a 4 foot would work great.

I use parabolics too, but I like the horizontal bulb ones a bit better cause I can move the light a little closer to the canopy. I'm actually quite fond of them, but plan to try some of the large adjustawings in another room. Do you have access to CS nutrients? I've been following along with desertsquirrels grow show and he's just killing it. I've produced some really nice flowers with GH too, but I'm in the dirt with GO right now. I've been itching to do some water grows though..definitely gonna tag along.

i hope to get into town soon and get reflector this week ...Gonna go with 4 foot parabolic horizontal bulb was thinkineg it would give me my best footprint . Also was asking about CS nutrients at my local shop he say it hard to import it ....he has no source
O:D n another note the plants are looking great nodes are tight with lots of fresh new growth upward :D

Just a quick update
Purchased pababolic hoztintal bulb type
Wow I see a difference in one day .... Since I put reflector they gee 2 inch 1 night

 

[KUSHPILES]

Right on- keep in mind much of the growth should be attributed to the growth cycle not just the reflector. What day of flower are you at now? Stretching out nicely, Looks good!

They look healthy though. If it was my room, I might defoliate some and move the light up a bit like you said. Do you bubble the main rez?

yes I bubble in main 2 12 inch long stones
was scared to trim the leaf back felt it would hinder bud growth
going to add 1 foot to each tub and separate them a bit
