soil is tricky but if done right gives good product soon I'll get my first dwc/waterfarm harvest & ive found a new hydro method I really like I'm looking at a 315 cmh/ lec that is supposed to flower a 3x3 area & equal at least 500w. of hps = larger yields @ lower power consumption but for now my trusted 250-400 switchable hps is happening my outdoors mkultraXbubblegum is throwing those little cotton balls I'm thinking she might finance the new light I could afford to split my room & run 1 waterfarm under the 315 & the other under the 250 hps & if somethings really looking good I could kick it up to 400 for a month or so or if I didn't run it I still have a spare my goal is a 1 lb. harvest from a single waterfarm
I've been looking at the same light mate, looks good. I still haven't seen a proper grow done with one though with a final yield amount. Should be looking at around 500gram yield then if its equivalent to a 500w HPS?

Another holiday?! I could do with getting away for a bit. Hows the girls looking now you're back mate?
The Sativa is ok but the purple bud look a bit lime green in colour. They are a little slow at the moment. But we'll stick with it. I'll get some pics up shortly mate

Reckon it would replace my 400 with better results then?
that is what I'm considering but as you well know I could use a little more experience with my present setup at least one more grow it just looks like a sure fire way to pick up my yield/ quality as a quality led is just so expensive & I'm afraid of the cheap ones still a bit more studying to do but I think the 315 cmh/ & not just any one is the hot setup it's gotta be the low frequency- square wave ballast & a Phillips bulb that makes it happen still researching but that is the way it's looking & 3100k I think

Lovely trees man! Big girls you got there! Lets see if you can top the largest cola! I think mine was 31g's? Looks like you'll have a good chance on those taller branches, thats what happened with my tall ones on OA
image.png I don't think I'll be beating this one anytime soon! Haha Especially with this grow. Massive difference between soil and dwc is how strong the branches are, I don't think these could support anywhere near that weight! I think I'm gonna have to help them out in a few weeks time and add some supports in
