Gotcha. Yes the branch strip. It's essential for growth. Gets all your light concentrated on the areas that matter. All that under foliage is not needed.

I strip all the way down to the first node about the days before I flip 12/12. Then 2 weeks after that I do a massive strip. This gets out all the little stuff that won't get any light. If a bud isn't trimmable it's not sellable. You want all the light at the branches and buds that are exposed..

The last grow looked like bonsais yes . Because I vegged way too long, and I had too thick of a canopy and too much hight, so I had to strip a lot down below. This grow I have a more even canopy and most all the branches are utilizing the light so it looks diffnight. I wasn't as aggressive with my strip 2 weeks after flower than my last one was..

Keeping your lower areas clean also helps air flow travel better throughout your crop. Less chances of mold. Also when you foliar spray it helps disperse better throughout the canopy.

Well everything is running smooth now. I dimmed my lights to 750 and I'm running my co2 burner, and I'm at 78 79 and it's doing fine. But if I switch them to 1000w then it starts struggling. I will be able to save this grow thank god.

Tomorrow I'm going to order 4 630w cmh lights, and my next run will be one side cmh, and the other the hps. Then I'm pretty sure I'll be happy with the 630s and the run after next will be 8 630s.

This is 40 days flower. Nothing has suffered during the ac struggles. I'm happy.!! They are frosting out and packing.!

Everything is lookin great dude! You’re right, they didn’t skip a beat. Can’t wait to see the HPS vs CMH grow coming up. I’m sure a bunch of ppl are gonna be lurking watching that.

Bro... cant` stop healthy plants with a lil heat wave.....lol..... Hell....prolly made em pump more resin.....and......when you can dial the exact pre veg time before flippin them PW bitches and pull 2.5 per light with 630`s , that`s when 20 lb rooms come consistently.....and from 5040 actual watts not 8 KW......and....

Only 17200 worth of heatgain from the 630`s instead of 27296 from the 1KW`s , not to mention 3000 watts less power draw from the lights that sounds like a perfect win win to my old ass....anyways....

Hope Harvey`s good to yas and good luck on the upgrades.....

Peace.....DHF.........

Yeah, I'm also keen to see your comparison of CMH vs HPS. I'm a gavita fan.

Yeah guys I'm super stoked.!! I just ordered 4 630w lamps with the 3100k Phillips bulbs. $2,500 I can't wait. 240 bucks shipping though. Fuck.!! The price I pay to live in paradise let me tell ya.. I'll harvest this weekend and have my next run cloned and the lights hung by end of next week. This will be fun to have a side by side going. it won't be the 8k grow show anymore.. lol especially when I end up with 8 630s.

Vanilla P.. Dude yeah I'm sure alot of peeps will want to see that. It will be a true side by side with the same strain. Doing pineapple chunk next. BIG yeilds.

MM... Yes you do have forearm colas.!! Can't wait get that extra spectrum that I'm missing with the hps. If my shit comes out smelling like my greenhouse grows do, I'm going to do back flips.. I always have great yeilds indoors, and the quality is great, but it's just not like the outdoor sun smell and terps. If that can happen along with the yeild I'm going to faint. Haha.

DHF.. bro.. everything you said. Exactly what I'm thinking. It's a win win all the way. !!
