ThanksReal nice bud. Thanks for keeping the updates coming. It was nice to watch this happen. Good luck with the healthy ones. Sould be a nice little harvest from them.
We have started some seeds they broke out of their shell today.
I am going to figure out how to grow with these damn lights. LOL I just cant stop and chalk it up as a bad test. One of the issues was the light was stationary and now it is moving over the plants. The other was lack of heat = fixed put heater in room on timer. I think one other reason is the Nutes. We are use to GH not Canna. I think we are putting seed plants when older on GH. We will finish healthies on Canna.

I'm really excited about this. We might all be using these lights in a couple years.
And we all might be growing vertically like me too.... who knows?
Here are the healthy ones Flowering since Nov 22. 31 days of flowering. To get the buds I need or want I think I'll have to get more light. These 120w light that I have are to be equal to a 1000w. Although I ony have the plants under 4 of the light channels, so that would mean the plants are only getting 60w. This would mean only 500w HPS. What do you all think?

The plants should have been cut down from the start with the sickies. I wont stop until I try all the stuff I think is wrong. HELL I put enough money into these lights that makes me want to keep on going with them. After I do try everything and they do not work I'll hang'em in my garage.

The thing I use to judge equivalence is bud size/ density. I would say those buds look like they were grown under between 200-300w of HPS.
They are beautiful buds... but not the fat things I would expect to see under 500w of light.
I could be wrong and they may grow a lot the last month. But I agree the light can't be worth a 1000w.

Have you tried to stick a light meter under then to see how much usable light you are actually getting from them? I am sure that they would have turned out much better if they were healthy, but even my sickly plants usually grow denser foliage than that. That's the way it looks to me in your pics anyway. This plant just started getting better after about 1 month of vegging under 150W HPS with 2 other plants that are way taller so the light is about a foot and a half away from her tops.
