Only had it burning a week or two but the plants seem to love it and my finishing buds look great.

I hope it doesn't reduce my yield because I really like the room in natural looking lighting mostly.

how does it compare just by eyeing it to the "whiteness" of the LEC? i'm trying to decide if i want to keep the same plants under each bulb for the whole flowering or mix it up and give them some LEC and some Blue along the way.

Thank you ttystikk!

Really enjoy your dedication to research of all the new tech. I see you're constantly trying new light setups. Most people want to stick to old methods as they've been around forever and they're a cheap buy-in. Needless to say, I've stepped out of my comfort zone and have no intention of back tracking. This is all thanks to you and a few other growers here that have put in the time,work, and $$$ to document their findings for advancement in the community.

I'll be trying Qb's after my cob runs as well. You're doing very well with them. Keep it coming!

I was thinking 9 but didn't want to sound stupid, I may run a mixture of both 315's and 600's, the 600's would have to be air cooled.

Every time I've run CMH alongside HPS, the plants hated the orange glow so much they did noticeably worse.

This statement is rediculous. Phillips made the things to assist hps not as a stand alone light source.

And most pro growers use both.

And the plants in the overlap in my room looks exactly the same as the directly under the lamps.

And hps is already proven to grow plants fine so please ignore the above hps comments. They are silly.

HPS on left. LEC on right. The plants don't care. They transfer photosynthesis to the strongest wavelength.

We stoned growers think we see all kinds of stuff that isn't there. And as humans make excuses for our own mistakes.

The benefits are subtle. And unless you can grow a whole cycle healthy consistently you would never see any difference. And the light type won't help you if you can't.

No one has picked 100% blind which weed I have that was grown under which light. I have jars of before and after hps alone.

I like the natural light to work under and have noticed a subtle quality improvement. No magic.

These plants have been in the same spot all week.

Can you see a difference because of the light they are under? Hps corner looks ok to me. Lol.

If I never heard of LEC and had added another hps. Except for the red tainted room I hate I would never have missed anything.

I like them. And that is why I like them. Let's not pretend we are doing anything special to an adaptable plant. It is doing what's special.

what do you grow from? seed , clone? if seed, what breeder is that one? looks nice.

i've been strictly fem seeds for a few years. the last clone i bought had mites and fucked my shit right up. nevermore.

I grow mostly from Fem seed because of plant count. I do also run clones from different seed plants that I liked and also some S-1 seed plants from some famous clone only'. Got Blue Dream now from a reversed Santa Cruz cut.

The plant above is from ch9 female seeds.

He used to be in all the seed banks. He finally pulled from attitude. seed politics.

He mostly does bulk seeds now. But I have gotten stock in the last few months. He is prompt and helpful with emails usually.

The Black Widow x Blue Lemon Thai pic in my avatar is a CH9 plant I grew. He used the pic on his website. I was honored. I was a newer grower at the time.
