You do realise you are running enough Watts to cover 9-10 square metres with ?
Jamming every thing into one square meter . Is over kill .

You may have to turn some of the lamps off in late flower or your flowers will bleach and have very little smell as the essential oils get burnt up .
Plants have a threshold . They actually shut down light absorption at mid day in Summer .

How many DWC units do you have ?
One lamp per 1.5 square metre is sufficient .

Not tryin to rain on your parade . Just get better bang for your buck . A decent grow should be a pound of primo per 6 hungie + a shit load of trim an shade leaf . . = 6 elbows per harvest . But ... that will mean spreading out the buckets . Giving each plant a space to grow into and healthy plants .

Doing it consistently then becomes the new goal .

Thanks for sharin

hey there elmer no you are right i was thinking too much lights but the room isnt too big either im going to spread out the buckets next run so there is good spacing etc
the lights are doing fine its not getting too hot the added aircon is doing the trick the smell are quite pungent and the co2 levels are at 1500ppm the room will do better next time round but for now things are going great the light is spread evenly through the room the canopy is getting penetration in a good way hehe also the water chiller recirculating the nutes and making them colder to about 17.C enables the plants to withstand the heat
bud sites are forming now and the stretch is great ive added more calmag and floralicious plus + things are going to boom they are lush green and perfect i dropped the ph to 5.9

things are looking great

You'll eventually get the soil part down pat, it can be a pain in the ass.
Feeding it hydroponic nutrients wont work as most don't have urea nitrogen to convert to ammonical which microbes need to break down, without that it just flushes past the rhizosphere and it would be the reason yours got stunted, your nutes will say nitrate of nitrogen or soluble nitrogen, not the nitrates i mentioned.
