I'll probably do Kandy Kush x the following

Wedding Cake
Purple Punch
Gorilla Glue
Stardawg

may toss cuts from the Triple Nova and LV Lemon Skunk in there too. lol Probably need some people to help test the beans down the road.

4 of those strains are all main stay fire weed. That would be a nice collection to have lol

I have never tried Kandy Kush, but your love for it is making me want to.

Hopefully down the road ill be growing good enough to actually test for ya. So very long to go before i get there tho lol

Don't sell yourself short. You will probably be s perfect candidate for a tester by the time I get beans made lol.

So in my veg room I had one of my 1000W MH bulbs bite the dust. I went ahead and hung up the two 1000W DE CMH lights that I have. Wow I had to hang them 18" higher because they are so bright. I measured the light intensity at the canopy to match those readings with my old lights. The new lights cover a lot more area with the same wattage AND they make less heat.

Next I will hang my LED light so I can use it while I wait for my tent. Then my veg room will be all modern lol.

So how really is your peat base different than coco?Reading your feed to runoff schedule sounds the same as coco,only your ph is higher.

With coco you don't let it dry between waterings. The pH is different for sure. Other than that not much is different. You do need to wash and buffer coco before using.

No clue brother, I got the cut from a dude that worked at the Treehouse several years ago, met him on here, havent seen him around in like 3 years. Mine is a forum cut, the seeds now werent around then.

The De CMH has to be kept that much higher hey?

i assume your using a meter to set your distance?

Cant wait till mine shows up. next run my flower room coverage/light penetration should be much better than this run.

Yeah it's just a cheap meter but I used it to measure the intensity I was using and to match it I have to raise the light, that resulted in more growing area with the same wattage. I had to tell me AC unit to relax because the heat is way lower in there now.

Thats very good , same intensity, bigger foot print and less heat....seems like exactly what we want in a light

That was my next question, if you noticed any heat difference.

 

[Renfro]

I really think a 600 or 630 watt DE CMH could cover a 4 x 4 area just as well as my 1000w DE HPS. With way less heat and more UV. I am merely speculating at this point however, perhaps I will invest in some 600's at some point and see what it does. That would be a 4800 watt saving for me. That adds up to 1728 kWh per month x 11.3 cents per kWh for a monthly saving of 195 bucks. At that rate 12 lights would pay for themselves in a few years.

 

[Renfro]

Probably faster than 2 years because I was only counting power savings on the lights not the AC.
