Beast of a Bitch, her and the others are drying out their 15g bag in 48 hours. I do appreciate all the folks who have done the testing but at some point this is what matters.

SC overhead lights so I can spread the bay's to 2' for my bigger plants.
They are the same kind of rails running diodes soft & efficient.
They have nice 57k veg Horizons too. I'm getting some soon after I see them in hand.
Shooting for 3 #'s outta my Cloaks this time. Ya, boooyyy!

Ordering 2 more Amare's this week to complete my 15'x4.5' double trellis scroggiesh run. All Amare's popping that run. Can't decide though. Seeing how it's 4.5 the Pro-4's may be best but I'm loving the value & design of the SE-450. Really wish I had some experience w/ the Pro-9 cuz that's what I'd get. Still not sure about the height thing though. Only gonna have like 28" from the light to the top trellis & they usually will grow about 1' taller then the top trellis in my HPS room. So, I'm thinking I may be close proximity growing here. Might be able to solve some of the issue w/ a little weaving & training.
The Amare's are fine @ 12-18" w/o lenses but the mono mix happens around 16". They say 20" for a proper mix to take place but I'm happy w/ what my eyes see @ 16".
If I get the SE-450 then I'll want a light rail to supplement the edges. If you know me, you know I love my side lighting anyways.
2 Pro-4's would be right choice though.
Technically, I have enough now to do the job but I'm seeking highest yields. So 2 more it is, or another Pro-9.
Well, I'm just rambling on. What do you guys think I should get? Always liked those SS-260's too.
I now own 1,SE-450, 2,Pro-4's & 1,Pro-9 & am trying to kill 15'x4.5' w/ 12 biggenz. Lmk your thighs guys?

Cut me a deal on your SE 450 and use that $$ toward more pro 4's :)

I'm out of space with those 2 massive plants. I proped the pro4 on a 20 degree angle with more lighting in the back. Sort of like very growing in a way. It's better than ruining the tops of the plants.

Angled lights will do well for your style cuz you don't loli-pop. Utilizing more of the plant.
They look like 1 # Potential plants. I'd bang them w/ 400+ watts each & add some of your Cobs around them.
What strain are they? Not that I'd know anything about them cuz they're autos, but I'm curious.
What size pots/bags are those? Looks like you got some record breakers there SmoBro!
Damn bud, those are bigger then most of my photos.
You should post pics here more. I love seeing your work!
Mad props for keeping yourself in the game!

Thanks man! 15 gallon bags, down to 30 hours before they need a drink. 3 gallons, 1800ppm each and not a burnt tip on either plant. Tons of calmag too at 2.5 tsp per gallon, extra mag and foliar feeds every other day. Little nitrogen heavy due to the calmag so they are getting twice what they should be. Just lolipopped this afternoon, bending, banging and tying them down. Gonna buy a 6x6 tent for them cause the 4x6 spot is to tight. This was yesterday, the tallest branch is inches from the light. Lol 100w 3590's are bright as fuck too. IMG_0279.JPG

Rest of them are small this run. Got off to a bad start and fed flower nutes to soon. Day 65 from seed. Still atleast a gpw, lucky for anymore. IMG_0307.JPG
I'm embarrassed to show pics of the plain cob girls. Maybe my growing/ nutrients whatever has adapted differently to these lights. Who knows they all look great but those under plain cobs.

What issues are you having under the plain COB's?

They aren't drinking like the rest. I feed the others 2 gallons every 30 hours, big bitches get 3 gallons if the plain cob girls get a shot glass the saucer overflows. I really think the growth is that much better with the enhanced cobs and with constant adjustments to their feed has got them dialed in. If the growth is a bit slower with plain cobs they could potentially lock out from the excess. That's the only thing that makes sense. I'm sure the monos are a few % less efficient and yes these colors are present in cobs but they sure seem to do well with vegging and flowering for me. Maybe I'm just a crazy brainwashed Amare lover.

Gotcha thanks for the feedback. I am curious if I should throw my rehab GG under the HPS to see what happens vs the COB's lol......

I don't know that's a good question............... I'm sure @robincnn could provide the measurements of one for you to see on yours?

Might be easier to ask Vic to swap cobs for me on a se-450 to 5000k's I was just thinking since you use it it could help add in some more colors.
