Light is now at 100 percent. Thanks to stickylungs and airwalker. Just in time for flower. This is the end of week 1. I flipped March 12th. Also some pics of the veg room growing under the mars sp250.
Very cool! You need to learn how to use the trellis though, buddy haha. It's doon jack shit in there. Either have it higher, or bend and train those branches down 2 weeks ago to fill the net with bud sites, before they got soooooo stretched out, and you could have had a literal sea of nugs. The point of the trellis is to bend the tops down and get the branches lying down flat across it underneath so all the lower sites on the branch are the same height as the top one. Virtually making every site a "top cola". You get me?

Yea I know what you mean. I started too late with the Scrog. I ended up breaking a few branches so I just left it the way it is. Still got some to spread out. A lot of the undergrowth has caught up. But thanks man. Appreciate the feedback. I’m always down to learn some shit lol

Yea I’m running w the trellis as well bro I don’t understand them qb’s they are powerful frfr I’ve put trellis up I haven’t sexed yet thought 2 plants are female. Maybe the rest are male idk? But my concern it’s whether to top again from the pics

and does anyonehave a clue as to how higher to run them now w the trellis upsnd intensity I’m clueless and am lettingthe plants tell me so I’m at 50 percent and 18-20 inches over

last two pics are of them before transplant a week ago an they were justwatered in this pic

You always seem to just add in pics into other people's threads. It's strange... Why don't you just create your own thread and post your photos there?

Upgraded from a 2x2x4 to a 3x3x6. Currently running 1 Mars Hydro Ts 1000. Been looking at the Spider Farmer 1000 to add in after the girls finish. Do you guys think that's overkill?

Truly, they're beautiful. But I gotta say, you could utilize the space you have much much better. there's far too much open area. Use a trellis next time and stick your plants neatly in rows. Create a Sea of green but without going small scale which is normally how that's done.

Ended up leaving the trellis where it was. Didn’t want to fuck anything up. But in week 7 of flower. Buds getting huge!

your lights should be about 4ft above plants in veg. At least until they get used to the light. And I wouldnt use a trellis if I didn’t know the sex of my plants. Unless you are trying to get seeds take off the trellis. Once you flip to flower lower your light about a inch a day til you get 24ft above your plants. Then you can experiment with going lower.

4' is way way too far away. Par falls off to like 10% that distance. I'd say 24" tops.

I honestly don’t remember the post..... I’m stoned rn, regardless it had to have been a while ago bc and went unanswered? I think 4 ft way too far knowing what I know now. I keep good notes as I’m sure most people In Here do. And if I could do it again this would be my recommendation for anyone running 288w qb in a tent set-up

I would actually run them closer than the recommended height ( though you can run them at reccomended height but I’d say preferably on the lower side of the reccomeded height) they seem to fit be able to run much closer to the plants I’ve honestly kept them about 2 ft from the plant at all times and had no problems. I am pheno hunting and two of the plants in flower now have stretched crazy and I say that to say that they are running closer to the light than any of the plants NO PROBLEMS PERIOD!! As for theheight rn w those plants it is 6-8in and 24inches from the rest so a total of 30 in for the shorter plants and no problems what so ever as for them, IMO I will show pics maybe u see something wrong that I don’t see for me the intensity would be more of a concern for anyone that hasn’t run qb before (increase/decrease? When/stage?) etc just my two cents which can be corrected but the lights period are amazing hands down beasts
