An overhead COB would be cool to see. I've been looking into LED for the new setup as an option, the initial cost is kinda ridiculous right now though.
Yea it is definetly kind of high. But factor in energy cost and replacing bulbs yearly and it factors out.

The high powered LED work, the only problem I have is the head room. I have to keep everything within twelve inches.

I grew for years with an hps & ive used 1000,600,400,& a switchable 250-400 which is my favorite & I still have it & for awhile had a 600 room & 1000 room at the same time which cost at least $200.00 a month to run as for me the led is here to stay

Yea it's seeming my lights are producing what my buddy's 600s are. They are half the wattage so they do seem to be close to twice as efficient.

Ugh help.... my door got left open.... I usually run dark during day. I can tell it's effected new white hairs on side closest to door. Should I chop now or what. I don't know how bad this proccess is.

Well thinking...new hairs wouldn't mean it's re-entering vegetative state, and the door was only cracked open and that room is rather dark anyways

Day 52/59 Flowering

Well they look great. I'm glad you guys got me to wait this extra bit of time. Nugs seem much more dense, more crystally. Is there really another stage I'm lacking here? I mean ignore the days the first number is when I called it Flowering, but as per strain info they do not indicate if that time is from the start of 12/12 or when I personally indicate Flower time.

Edit: reason I bring it up is my second number is wrong, it was 9 days before I indicated Flowering. And that would have harvest 9 weeks as this weekend from the 12/12 flip.

They look nic and frosty, it I don't see any amber trichs in the closeup shot.

Find the colas and check the bottom to top for amber trichs.
