Club 315w lec

Just got another sun system 315 CMH with vertical reflector, pretty excited for this next run, running rare dankess Grape Ox and OG Raskal White Fire OG, i'm hoping to see some pretty fall colors, the grape ox turns purple under my HPS so I think it might be real colorful under the CMH/HPS combo, also planning to put a couple LEDs next to my CMH this run since it's approaching winter time the heat shouldn't be an issue.

Can you link me to the sun system vertical reflector, have not seen this.
If you are going to run vertical, why reflector and not bare bulb?
Not questioning your grow just have never heard of this.

This reflector or the original all in one unit with the ballast attached has shown the highest par the 315 cmh can put down at 16".

Sunlight supply and cycloptics cmh vertical mount open reflectors were designed with Phillips specifically for the bulb.

The 315 horticulture bulb was designed to be run vertically in an open reflector. The reflector actually enables the bulb to reach the high numbers and efficiency claimed by manufacturers.

The university of Utah did their tests on the 315 with a reflector designed this way.

I just got a 750 watt DE to go with my 315's so I'm stoked for the next run too. I got the 750 mainly for the heat.
 
I see, like mine only I remove the ballast and hood when I run bare bulb vertical.
Right now I am running my 25 day old plant under a 315W CMH with ballast attached in the horizontal position.

The plants under this horizontal setup.

When I remove the reflector and move the ballast outside the tent. This is from last grow.

Here are the ballast outside the tent, the second ballast is just opposite this one.

When he talked vertical I was thinking this method. My grow before the last vert was horizontal, and I used the 315 with the hood but I also used a SS400 LED. I tilted both lights and rotated the plants and was running only two plants but got 15 zips off them. Here is a pic of them in veg, you can see the pick hue of the LED on the left and the Brightness of the 315 on the right.

This worked well but running stacked 315 in a vert grow I got 34+ total zips with 24.5 being trimmed smokable buds.

I begin training these ladies next week for this winter grow.

Interested to see how this works for ya. And the lamps distance for each fixture to canopy for optimum coverage. Thanks.

I have a large hood mounted high for the 750 and a small gavita commercial type reflector mounted low for the 315, that way the 315 won't block out the 750.
 
Yeah id like to see how your gonna mount them. I know Gavita 750's need damn near as much height as a thouie de. At least 30 to 36 inches....multiple 750 de's anyways. And little 315 cmh's...16 to 20 inches?? I dunno. Seems like putting a howitzer field cannon next to a .22 caliber. This is speculation. Now a GC 630 cmh de...that seems it would pair up nicely with a 750 hps de.

Just gonna set the two side by side with the 315 lower. This may not be the optimum pairing, but its what I'm going with.
 
Building a new room and looking for some input.

My room is 13.5 x 12 for flowering. Unfortunately my ceilings are only 7ft but I can't change that...

6 de 630 nanolux

Considering adding 6 600w de hps just for extra penetration etc

Having a hard time relying on the nanolux system as my only timer etc... what if I lose internet? Any experience with using their system?

Going with co2 and 8" vent for backup

Mini split... dehumidifier etc...

As someone who had grown with 7 ft ceilings for over 6 years now, stay away from anything DE. It leaves no room for mistakes on stretch/plant size. You'd be better off with 12 315s. Canopy essentially wall to wall.

Personally I'd go with 3 ton mini split.
Two quest 105 dehumidifier.

Thanks! I was pretty set on the 630's but for some reason I got the idea in my head I should ad some 600's I have always grown in tents so the 7' ceiling wasn't as intimidating not to mention I'm in a wheelchair so I don't go huge anyway but I think the 6 fixtures will do well. I was hoping to find someone with some experience with the nanolux system. Or maybe even just someone who has enough computer experience to know if I need constant internet connection in order to keep everything running right
 
MIne also @ 26 days from sprout, spent 17 days under a a 4 lamp T5, transplanted into the 2 gallon Smart Pots and put under the 315W CMH with the hood for 8 days. Yesterday I went vertical bare bulb to begin training the plants for this vertical grow.

I run two Nanolux CMH NC 315W, Here is a pic with the hood, I run bare bulb so I remove the hood, remove the ballast from the lamp ( put it outside the tent), and let socket hang in the vertical position.

You can get away with 315 de's easy, never ran the 630's but I bet they would work too.
