so last night was my first long night for the girls because they were switched to 12-12 yesterday and this morning when I go to check on them; all the tops are yellow/green. Is this normal for when you flip them? I don’t think it’s a nute problem because all of my girls have it(5 coco, 2 ffof, and 1 DWC)

I’m running a 315 cmh 36 in. above tops and (2) 288 boards one on each side of cmh at the same height... I did spray them with epsom salt this morning and they have cleared up about 90%
Might be a magnesium deficiency and so the epsom salt helped. I noticed mine like a lot of it with my cmh lights. And they like more in flower I guess anyways. I try not to give em any the last month of flowering since I heard it can impact flavor but don't know if that's really accurate. And, I just ordered some 288's to surround my 2 cmh lights I have now, so I'm really curious how it turns out for you, and what you think about the 288's vs the cmh. I run my cmh at around 19" though. Keep us posted.

Honestly Ima nooby to both lights... I just got them a week ago.. I would read all this hype about both lights so I figured I get both...I got the LM301B 240w 3000k 660nm so ima find out about them if I make it all the way through flower!& I’ll probably drop lights to 28 in. Tomorrow it’s just hard to deal with heat here. What do you grow in?

I flower in my approximately 3x8 foot closet. I've just been using 2 cmh's the last 2 rounds and have been totally impressed with the results. I thought about adding another cmh, but thought I'd give these quantum boards a try since I've been hearing so much about them. I finally decided on 2 hlg 260's and an hlg 135. I'm guessing they're gonna put off more heat than I'm expecting, but we'll see.

No, I'm using 10 month old FFOF now in 15 gal pots. Only feeding organic nutes and EWC tea along with well water at around 7.8 ph. I never adjust my ph, but expect the microbes to buffer it for me. I had my closet filled last time with 9 plants, but this time just went with a few in there to keep it a little simpler. One hermied cause I stressed her too much supercropping, so there are 2 in there now. I'm at day 57 today, but this is a pic of the lights and closet I took on June 1st.

i gave a 48 hour dark period when i flipped to 12/12, and all my plants had light green/yellow tops when the lights came on at hour 49. They bounced back within a day or 2 and are looking good now. Id wait another day or so before you go adjusting your feeding regimen or do any further troubleshooting
