One thing that is insane with this led bars is when i was using HPS the center @50 cm from the canopy was giving me 1000ppfd (i always flowered at that height), but the corners of the tent would be 400ish ppfd
now with the led bars at 60cm from canopy it is at 900ppfd (witch will be my new target because full spectrum efficiency), but the corners are 625ppfd, thats fire!!! Huge increase, im sure yield will raise considerably.
hehehe yep its crazy the light spread of those bars, penetration should be better too because of light coming from many more angles.I had the same giddiness when I was measuring ppfd of my LEDs, too... And I'm coming from a 400 hps as well (27 years ago lol). I love your strategy of letting them stretch into an optimum ppfd value!
Do you save your DTW for outdoor plants or anything?

Thanks mate! So far so good, finding much easier to maintain VPD with LEDs than HPS.Count me in for the ride!! Looking healthy af in there! How ya liking the LED life so far?
Hell yeah, LEDs have been a huge game changer. Getting back into the game I was really hesitant, but man are they amazing! You’ve really got a good foothold on your settings and environment, I’m gonna kick back and learn a few things :)Thanks mate! So far so good, finding much easier to maintain VPD with LEDs than HPS.
1 Day after transplant and super cropping, zero shock and they are already growing fast.
Other thing is I don't need to keep raising the damn light every few days lol,
this LEDs hold such high ppfd even maxed out out on height, that right there I love already.
What i hope is less stretch during flower phase, that would be a big plus for the LEDs too.
btw I already veg with cheap china LEDs for probably 5 years just never flowered with the big guns bar LEDs.
But the symmetry is regained in the flower tents, all good lolThe veg tent... Did you waffle over having 9 pots or 10?
My brain would meltdown over symmetry (9) vs. even numbers (that 10th pot).
Good enough pics. Very healthy. You got them dialed in. :)transplanted them to flower today
lights @80% they are getting 500ppfd atm
super cropped ther 2 highest powerades to lag them a bit so the other can keep up
watered 4L per pot after the photos, i always water them with this ammount in flower my flower reservoir is 40L, this gives me around 25-30% runoff every watering witch i pump out from the trays to drain it to waste.
GH Floranova grow 1550us/cm Ph'd to 6.2 (this is my fixed ph for veg and flower the drifting is done naturally inside the media with the drybacks)
after regulating the ph added 2 oversized tsp of Great White

white balance is a little fucked but for next photos will make it better tho :-)
grow on ma girls lets see what this lights are up to.
Thanks, it's a limited setup when everything has to be done inside one room only, i wish I had another two rooms available one only veg and another one only drying/curing.Very nice setup.
We try, we are always trying ;-) thxGood enough pics. Very healthy. You got them dialed in. :)
