Very nice looking plants. I'd love to see what you could pull off running some Fluence Spydrx Plus or HLG 550 lights. Keep up the good work

looking great brother, the only thing I see different is the CMH leaves seem to be canoeing a lil more. Full spectrum might be a tad more intense.

Yes the plants directly under the lights I'm noticing thst as well. Leaves are curling up a tad..

That could be from the Heat. When you put your hand under there it is kinda warm. Even though my room is at 79 80, the spots directly under the light are pretty warm still even with my blower fan. This is my first rodeo doing open hoods I've always use air-cooled lights. But yes it could also be the intense full spectrum

The stretch is real. They are shooting for the ceiling.! The hps side shot up way higher than the cmh. More longer internodes and spacing between bud sites. The cmh branches feel as hard as a pencil and stacked close spacing.

I have my work cut out for tomorrow night, as I will dig in and do some massive lower branch clean up. I got branches going into nowhere. They need to be cleaned up.

Wishing I had some bigger reflector hoods on these cmh. But it should be fine..

14 days flower.

Thanks for the updates. Looks real good. How much distance between tops of plant and the CMH bulbs?
 
It’s a pleasure following your threads. I’m new here but I’ve seen some posts of yours in different threads and anyone can tell you know what your doing. I have respect for anyone that can take the time to share their own gardens. It’s a ton of work just being dedicated to your room never mind logging it for the rest of us. Anyways much respect brother and your gear look amazing. Something for a noob like myself to aspire too. Carry on

Okay weekly update. 21 days flower. The HPS side is completely over my head. I cleaned up the bottoms really nice. Everything is going great.!! Tighter internodes and stacked tighter on the cmh. This is about to be a cola party in a few weeks.. it's going to get wild.!

Thanks man.!

This is my first rodeo with cmh. But so far I would say get a 315 over a 600 HPS all day.. after seeing what these 630s do I would run a 315 for sure. I'm probably going to light up 3 315s along the walkway so i have some side lighting for the overhang..
