Lol...it’s science...Damn good thing I didn't look at this while blazed out of my mind. Might have never heard from me again

Where did you get your light meter and what did it set you back? What's the WV range, does it go outside of PAR?Day 51: No complaints from the girls. Focusing on getting air temp and rh up to target, the most difficult targets to get aligned.
Lights set at same height, ~ 20-22” above tops; ~725 ppfd; 96s running about 500w at wall, 288s running about 400w at wall.

The one with the spectrum graphics above is this:Where did you get your light meter and what did it set you back? What's the WV range, does it go outside of PAR?
We’ll see how the smackdown girls do....Hopefully you have better luck with your qb96 elites. I have two that are in box, waiting to be returned. I hated the way it structured the plants. It vegged decent but got lots a stretch when i flipped to flower. Almost an extra inch bewteen nodes on a strain iv been growing for years, and ended up with popcorn nugs. Super disappointment. Could be the huge amount of green in its spectrum.... there is a couple articles stating that if there is too much green in the spectrum the plants will elongate the stems, kinda like too much far red (SAS). Plants think they are being shaded.
I have my hlg260 at 3000k back up in its place. I can hit 1.4 grams per watt using that setup. Now the company HLG is ingorning me not honoring the warranty. Go figure. I talked to growmau5 and they shutdown Chilled Tech for a couple weeks to finalize new products... which im assuming the gen3 board will be out soon. Cant wait to see what he comes out with.
Looking forward to your grow @Or_Gro really curious how the smackdown will play out. See if you get simular results. Maybe its just me lol.
Dwc here, but that shouldn’t really affect stretch.Wow ya totally opposite. I am in amended soil. All my variables stayed the same except changing from two 288's to two qb96's. With both setups running 600ppfd. Wonder why the huge difference.
Youre killin it with your 96's. Keep it up brotha, good work.
I vegged an Original Glue with a QB96 and flowered with it as well, for part of the flowering run. Added more lights later, but, she ended up yielding me a half pound of primo bud that puts me in the clouds constantly. Let me see if Dropbox will cooperate today...Hopefully you have better luck with your qb96 elites. I have two that are in box, waiting to be returned. I hated the way it structured the plants.

I did have 2 Kind lights in there with it, but only for a month to a month and a half or so. Half pounder.
Just oneSweetness!
How many grows did you have under your belt b4 this one?
No worries, all the best man!I appreciate the offer but im still set on sending them back to hlg. They are not for me. I will be waiting to see what chilled tech comes out with. In the meantime i may upgrade my 288's to the version 2 model with the lm301b diodes.
