If you take a picture of a white piece of paper under those lights does it look white? The answer to that question equals the answer to yoursIs it the same with 315 w CMH bulbs?

CMH is much more white looking so pics should be fine under those. I have a 400W Philips CMH that runs off an HPS magnetic ballast and colour looks like sunlight in pics.Is it the same with 315 w CMH bulbs?
The digital Nikon Coolpix 20.1mp camera I have has manual white balance. I just put a sheet of computer paper under the light to have it calibrate to that then the pics look fine under HPS or blurple even but I don't have one of those.If you take a picture of a white piece of paper under those lights does it look white?

Hi there welcome to the forum, your best to start your own post, this thread is ancient.Anyone know what's going on? PleaseView attachment 4745469View attachment 4745471View attachment 4745472
Are you using soil or hydro?Hi friend. Is it possible I can ask u sir?
I can give you more details
I used to do that too with some VIVOSUN shades (works great). They have green lenses meant to correct for blurple lights. I upgraded to new light. I no longer need to use grow light glasses for photography, but I sure need them for my eyes now. I've had 15-30 minute spells where I sat my computer desk and couldn't do much because my eyes ached so much from exposure. I'd recommend glasses like these to anybody.I have grow light glasses that filter out all that red from hps. Put them infront of my phone and its like I'm taking a picture in natural light. They were only like $15 too.
I'd like to get a pair myself but need some that work over my reading glasses or I can't see shit close up. I found a pair once but they cost an arm and a leg. My Nikon CoolPix L32 20.1mp digi cam has manual white balance so I get great shots under any light after a quick calibration. Mostly HPS for me.I used to do that too with some VIVOSUN shades (works great). They have green lenses meant to correct for blurple lights. I upgraded to new light.

Hello, I apologize I did not realize you replied to my comment a while back. The grow light glasses I was talking about might have been able to accommodate glasses underneath. But, they are meant for blurples not HPS lights. I hope you might have found something by now that fits your needs.I'd like to get a pair myself but need some that work over my reading glasses or I can't see shit close up.

I can still see OK after working under the light but everything is colour-shifted for while and annoying. I'll wear a ball cap pulled down in front to cut out the overhead light a lot.
Ball cap to shade the eyes is it. My camera has a manual white balance feature so I can take nice pics under any type of light. Some flip-up lenses for hps light would be best for me but I've never seen any specific to grow lights.Hello, I apologize I did not realize you replied to my comment a while back.

LMFAO!I really love when a pic with HPS is posted with the question "Why are my leaves yellow"! LOL!
What about those using a shitty tablet, l could post back pics but whod see the plants? I dim light to 10% and is still bright in pics. Either that or just not post l guess.To all members that are using a HPS or LED lights and posting pics...

Best to just upgrade to a modern phone with a decent camera. iPhone 13 pro kicks ass for plant inspectionWhat about those using a shitty tablet, l could post back pics but whod see the plants? I dim light to 10% and is still bright in pics. Either that or just not post l guess.
