Nevergood's high power garden

Yeah, the work great and tested out to just what the datasheet said. It didn't like being horizontal, but did stay within a safe temperature, that was with no air movement in the room.
 
Ok. Again I changed things. They were starting to get to packed in the net after I did another clean-up and tuck, so I pulled 2 out and retucked. Now I will flip tomorrow. The are all 3 to 4 feet tall and have plenty of tops. I guess I will run one of them under my veros for a 2'x4' canopy @ 300 watts (outer 2@50w inner 4@25w). The other 3 will get 2 at 250 watts and 1 at 320 watts. They will all be netted this time.

CRI SHOOTOUT- I expected to see the 4000k stretch more that the high cri, but it looks like they are staying more compact under the high cri, otherwise they are nearly identical. The divider is up and tomorrow will change the timer to 12/12.
The other 2 I might put one under 250 and the other under 320? They are getting bigger than any plant I have run indoors. I will listen to any thoughts on these 2 plants, as to how to setup.

is the 4000k on the left and 3500k on the right in most of these pics ? left side looks a tad more full to me.excited to see these around week 6
 
Day 10 update- @ttystikk I thought you would light this. The last 2 I need to cage got to big for the tomato cage I have, so I had to buy some 5' wire fencing. Now that I have the newer Luna300 the old ones will be ran somewhere above 100 watts. I have plenty of HLG320s that I will run 3 per. I will also have more side lighting than top lighting. Tonight I will get more pictures of the CRI SHOOTOUT. I just realized I only have a pic of right after I caged it.

They look like ice cream cones lol
 
If you are talking about the caged ones, they are going to have side lighting. The netted CRI Shootout, I don't want to prune, to see the true effects of the CRI when it comes to depth.
The last netted one will also get side lighting or switched to a different light (currently VERO29s @ 300 watts.

I can appreciate that, good experiment, keep up the good work!
 
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+.

Finally got enough ratchet ropes and crossbars to hold up all my lights. Still haven't caged the last one and I need to make a few more reflectors. So this is as close to a 1000w HPS as I can go. 24square feet and 1150 watts at the wall. 5 Luna 300 at an angle on both sides, 2 on one HLG320 and 3 on the other HLG320. Both 3000K and 4000K of different CRI's (all I have left of there older version). The three down the center are 2 CLU056 (125w, HLG120-c1050) and1 CLU550 running on 2 HLG120-c1050s. I don't think the Vero's are looking as good, I will keep updating.
