I would much rather have your light than a Amare anytime! Just got caught up Will. Everything looks fantastic. Thank you for sharing and good luck. :joint:
Hello Reddeyez, Thank you for your kind words. The fixture would be easy to recreate. I have kind of followed current trends and started using pin heatsinks now.
After the girls are finished I will take the fixture down and add more hyper reds and a separate run of far reds. I am undecided about the 21w UV t5. I have put one AK47 on the top shelf with UV and one in the bottom without for comparison. If the results are not astounding I would rather add 21w of hyper reds instead of t5 UV.

Cheers,
Will

You are very welcome,they are well deserved! Looking forward to the comparison. I agree the pin heatsinks rock as well.

UPDATE:

Well harvested first couple of plants from this cabinet. No real outstanding specimens. Total weight was 135g from two AK47 and one NL. The two AKs were my test subjects for UV supplementation. One with one without. Not sure I will add UV in future. Both plants yielded about the same amount and I can not tell visually any difference. I will do some blind tests with some friends to gauge the potency effect. Just can't help thinking I could put the 21watts to better use.
