Nevergood's high power garden

Still waiting for my teens, so it's clean-up time for the room. I will redo all the panda today and tomorrow and wash everything down with bleach.
I recently got some good news for @Alex Lau and the older Luna 300 (maybe 110 lumen per watt). One of the first lights I built with a HBG 240, Coolbay Tera, and basic reflector, just hit a gram per watt on his first time flowering with it. I guess he has only been using it for vegging and has finally finished a full run with no larf. I was very surprised, since this was in a 2'x4' tent. So that is a big thumbs up for the Luna 300.

IMG_20160924_221517809_HDR.jpg The new girls are looking better now and 2 clones from the club are finally taking to the soil. They are in a box that has the 2' redbird led strips (22w each, 2 bars). They will get a little more veg and then flower in the box. Going for grams per watt on this one.IMG_20160924_221602318_HDR.jpg

Update Day 16-No issues at all and only watering 6 is so much easier. They are drinking twice a day. If I only water once a day they are almost dry by the next day. The one corner now has 2 Vero29 light bars over one for 300 watts. The canopy on that one is almost covering the whole 3'x4' net. I will clean her up some tonight. These Vero29s (8 @25w&50w) are powered by 3 CEN-100-36

The 3 in the middle of the room are all looking good, but I did notice that the one in the tomato cage isn't drinking as much as the other two next to it. I still haven't gotten the fencing around the last one. Each of these plants will have 3 COBs over/ around the plants, one over the top and one on each side. Here I am using both HLG240-48b and HLG320-48b. The 240 I am running 2 luna's on and the 320 I am running 3 on. On the third plant, I have 2 Citizen CLU550s running @ 250w each. I would like to run one per HLG120-1050, but I need to confirm how to wire, since the CLU550 has 2 +'s and 2 -'s per COB. I tried in parallel like I though the datasheet said, but it had a flicker that I didn't like. I also need to throw together a few more reflectors.

CRI Shootout-
Both sides look great. Much more stretch under the 95+cri, no surprise. I am thinking next run to start flowering under 4000k for the first 2 weeks, then switch to the 95+ and finish with a 6500K. I did clean up some of the excessive leaves and noticed that the sun leaves were bigger under the 3200k 95+.

Hey NGE

Did you ever get to try this out? Vegging 4000, then high cri for flower with 6500k for finishing? With new veros about at next to nothing weve been thinking of a similar approach but making it so we dont have to change the lights, have everything in 1 setup but not sure its worth all tye hassle. Did you get to try it out?

@Dpasadena Those COB's (Luna300) are Flip Chip Opto/Starlite. They are an advertiser on this site.
Been working to much lately, so I haven't had a chance to even trim the last run. I also need to get the room cleaned and ready for the next run. I might have some more update in a few day, lot's to do.

I have barely had time to keep the new girls alive, but this time every thing is doing fine. I am still vegging and will finally get the flower room cleaned up. I have been spraying the room down with water and bleach every few days. I might do one bug bomb also. The 2 in the box I started flowering maybe a week ago.IMG_20161014_095852883.jpg IMG_20161014_095839224.jpg

I have finally moved them in to the flower room for a little bit more vegging. I added another 5' of fencing, for a total 17'. I am starting to think I have 2 different strains and a couple, just don't look rooted in as good as the rest. Maybe another week and I will spread them out and tie them up. 58 square feet of vertical canopy @ 1500 watts or 17.65 watts per vertical square foot with 12 plants.
