What is your spacing center to center? 24"Learnt a lot from this board while researching building an LED fixture for growing 'conventional' plants, and I'm excited for the opportunity to contribute in this thread.. Setup is a 4x4 with a quad Vero 29 gen 7's running @ ~320W from the wall.
These are cobs, 3000k 90cri. Using a new organic soil mix, will be interesting to see if tip burn develops. Ive had bad luck with it in the past... Im not familiar with this variety of lettuce so cant really tell you how it would grow outside but it seems happy so far. Here is a measure of light intensity taken with my cell phone about plant level.are you running cobs here? if so, what K are they? the head looks great BTW, no tip burn, a nice head is forming, it looks like its loving that led light. Do the leaves feel thicker to you? I ran some lettuce under 3k cobs once and the leaves got really thick, it was weird.

It looks to me like it is developing the "Flower Effect" for lack of a better term.These are cobs, 3000k 90cri. Using a new organic soil mix, will be interesting to see if tip burn develops.

What is light height from tops ?Red lettuce, romaine seedlings, spinach, carrots, beans, broccoli under a Tasty T4-1750 on "veg", naturally.
what?................every local lettuce/microgreen op that retrofitted to t8 leds from fluoros has been loving them, same yield at half power and lower temps,no bulb swaps for yrs, ROI is quick.It looks to me like it is developing the "Flower Effect" for lack of a better term.
The new leaves seem to be getting smaller rather than larger. That is exactly what I have been seeing with most of my led attempts.
