Initial thoughts???........coverage/build quality/noise level/etc..............thanks
It's a solid build. the coverage is good 3x3 to 3.5 x 3.5 like plc say. it's not that noisy I can barely hear it my exhaust fan is louder. I like that it has a dimmer. I think it's a good light i think these will out yield the 2 rw150 and 2 sgs160 i had in there and it has better coverage than the rw and sgs but will see. It puts out just about the same heat as the 4 a51 maybe a few degrees higher. I think any one that purchase plc will be satisfied with the light. I'm thinking about picking up 2 more from them when there back in stock.Initial thoughts???........coverage/build quality/noise level/etc..............thanks
Thanks for the info, Seems like a winner to me...............I also like that it has a dimming knob, nice touch.It's a solid build. the coverage is good 3x3 to 3.5 x 3.5 like plc say. it's not that noisy I can barely hear it my exhaust fan is louder.

The light looks nice, out of stock on site... 750$
Why do you like to dim before startup n lights off?
Are these the ones made by a certain member of this site by chance?Just received my plc light! I order 2 of them im Pretty stoked there here will be putting them up later today

Great development so far! Quick to set buds. Glad to hear you're liking them.I really like what I'm seeing the 1st week under plc lighting

You're thinking of it as sunset the flower initiator.He thinks he's mimicking sunset and sunrise. But in reality he's just making his plants finish faster and yield less
You need 730nm after lights out to mimic sunset and 660nm at lights on to mimic sunrise.

What strains of running? What's the story on the rest of your setup if you don't mind me asking?
You're thinking of it as sunset the flower initiator.
What he is doing is mimicking sun rise/set...just a different part of it. But a part that can increase net photosynthesis by "warming up" and down. SDS has quite a bit of data and citings in a few threads(soft onset or one of those) and when I get home today I will pull what I have.
I am in my room at lights on 90% of the time or shortly after.
Very nice. Good solid organic regiment. That dosido from stardust looks killer. I have his sherbert cut.I'm running 4 sour sun set, 4 gorilla glue #4, 1 agent orange, 1 dosi do, 2 stardust sherb, from clone and i just threw in a gg4 s1 from unknown prophet last night. there all in 5 gallon air pots with roots 707 mix amended a little bit with dragonfly earth medicine just water and microbial tea once a week
You're not getting me. It is nothing todo with hormonal/phytochrome response of the sunset/sunrise. Dimming how he is doing allows the photosystems(for photosynthesis) of the plants to warm up to their full rate of photosynthesis. As where hitting them 100% from the get go can cause slight delay/inhibition, which lowers the rate of photosynthesis going on in the first ~hour and lowering photosynthesis overall. So in turn, decreasing power to start with, is increasing photosynthesis , both in the beginning while dimmed, and overall. The exact opposite that one time you did it.I've tried that with hid. All it did was make plants finish sooner and yield less. The plants are getting less light. I git the idea from my buddies cousin who did it. This was before I knew much about spectrum.
The flower initiator ie mimicking sunset is actually mimicking sunset outside. I don't need to explain that. Dimming lamps just gives the plants less light so the plant thinks it's already fall instead of late summer when it starts to flower. And finishes sooner.
