I was just about to say you need to re arrange those lights and then you did. Awesome, thats how I would have them setup too.

Only thing is how do you plan on adjusting those lights as the plants get taller? Those zip ties will only tighten down so much.

Clean system bro!

The order of the race was: Candy, Shark, Blue Dream, Psicodelicia. Difference between them gets bigger everyday.
I began to see some brownish stains in the leaves of Candy Kush.

Epic moment.

I cut off the lower branch of Blue Dream and Psicodelicia, on an attempt to increase their vertical growth. I made the opposite with the Candy, letting the lower branches to suck energy from the rest of the plant.

Candy Kush is double of the size of GWS, but that only means that my SCROG will not be evenly ocuppied by the 4 strains. What a problem.

Total water change after 13 days since I mixed the first NS.

First I drain the water using this manual syphon.

I put each plant in a temporary bucket with clean PHed water, in the meantime I set off and clean ALL the system. After, I used some fruit plastic boxes to raise all the system a little bit, so the plants reach the net before. As you can see, the deposit box is slightly lower than the other, so the water flows back faster to the deposit.

Mixing new NS:

35 L distilled water
+ 1,2 ml/l Grow
+ 1 ml/l Bloom
+ 0,2 ml/l Bio Roots
+ 0,3 ml/l Welgro Calcium
+ 0,1 ml/l Denitrol (bacteria)
+ 2 mini-drops StechmückenFrei (Neudorff) (bacteria)
PH 5.5 EC 1
Tª 21ºC

I pour the water into the clean system, I put the plants back in, but before I changed the position of two of them. Bigger ones under LED, smaller ones under CFL, looking for equal growth... how fool am I...

Hey there!
Thanks for your comment, you are the firs one who dares, hahaha

I'm glad we share the same vision on how to get the most out of the lights. But soon, you'll see some juicy news.
Regards!

I see a problem here: the bulb touches the inner wall of the reflector. Can it blow?

Here is the chains system. I prefer it rather than easy-roll.
