@Traplife I'm sick of my gogreen. Mike told me I could just "take off" the lenses cause it was causing major hot spots in conjuction with my current light. But once I opened it, all the lenses were fuckin siliconed on. He says MOST OF them are screwed in but I don't believe him. Are any of your 4 fixtures' lenses screwed down onto these cheap ass heatsinks? And by the way theres 4 drivers each running 1 cob and they are such shite drivers. I want my money back.

I actually have not tried to take the lens off, i just opened them a while ago and gave them a good dusting. They seem to be doing their job and stay cool. Our intake rarely has to click on, usually stays around 72-74 in there during lights on

You can probably see by just looking inside it.

Day 35 for the GDP, got some buds turning purple! growth is still just rapid and huge. Smells amazing, the frost is outstanding. Not sure if its the COBs or the CoCo or the Vegamatrix, most likely a combination of the three, but this is just awesome.
Day 6 for the 3 Scott's OG and 3 Skywalker Kush, all looking healthy, on node 4, going to top soon. Cant believe i used to even grow in soil, this coco is crazy fast!

Yeah the tallest cola in the back left (you can tell in the pics) stretched like a motherfucker and is basically 4" from the lights lol. Leaves are getting pretty bleached, not much we can do about it at this point.

Dude I had the SAME PROBLEM. @GoGreenLEDs needs to see that a total of 3 people now have said that the 4 x COB light causes hot spots and bleaching.

Yeah well the plant is pretty damn close, the other areas of the tent that are farther 12-16" away are fine. So i assume with those lenses there is a point of being "too close" for sure.

Mine was over a foot away and it has bleached everything in the center where it was, so badly.

Notice the lower growth is just fine that's in the shade.

That looks more like light burn, or at least i though light bleaching was where you get those little albino buds with little white snowcaps, a couple of my colas definitely have some light bleaching but i cant do much, the lights are maxed out in height, would have flowered earlier but did not expect this kind of growth! The genetics appear to be good though, managed to snap a few bud porn shots.
Still got another 3-4 weeks to go and its looking beautiful

Your leaves are doing the EXACT SAME THING I can see it in your pics. Rust spots and you say foxtailing too. Mine was maxed in height also. These go greens focus the light too much. I'd return yours if you're within your 90 days still. I wasn't unfortunately.

unfortunatley we are not within that window either. however i dont blame the lights entirely, our canopy was of control, we didnt expect that much growth and couldn't scrog properly like we had planned. But we are going to for sure scrog the Scott's and Skywalker and make sure we can get a solid distance.

If it's burning at anything above 14"(mine was over 24") it's definitely the light. ...

Thing is we never saw bleaching on the GSC, they got fucked due to spider mites, but there was no burning. Either way stuck with it and gonna see how it does next grow. Either way its a step up from the mars.

I feel you. My currant kush and the outside perimeter of my scrog screen suffered no burning, just under the GoGreenLED. ... :/
