Day 33 for the 42X vs 42x spectrum showdown and it was harvest day.
Overall I feel the quality is better on the standard spectrum with more Blue and more Far Red.
I also noted more tip burn issues on the modified spectrum side but I know my nutrient mix needs a little dialing in. Last run I did not have as much tip burn problems. Possibly due to 2X the number of plants sharing the same reservoir and calcium becoming the element in sort supply first.
Overall prefer the head shaping of the standard spectrum and leaf thickness wise they are very similar. It just seams to vary a bit from plant to plant and leaf to leaf.
So onto the yield - I actually weighed the heads as I cut them down this round and it would seem that had I not had a runt in the center position on the stock spectrum since early on that the stock spectrum would have potentially yielded just slightly more than the modded spec. We are really splitting hairs on this one and just the genetics of the plants is definitely coming into play.
For now it is time for the Big Salad.
Stay tuned for the next round which should be HydroGrowLed XB70 Micro vs HLG 65 V2!
