Do u know if the 96s use 3500k or 4000k for the the whites? About how many watts of far red per sq/ft on the 96 side are you using? Great show, thanks for posting!

i believe the whites are 4000k

 

[wingerdinger]

Dam those stems are thick
does the 288s buds look fatter or is it just me?

The 4k seems to have much more blue than elites are putting out. It might be 3500k.

288s are s little smaller...still plenty of time, tho...

Or Gro, i have to thank you for posting your data from the sekonic , its helped me get an idea of the direction i want to go with my next build. Thank you, good sir!

Just out of curiosity have you ever tested any hps lamps with your sekonic?

You’re welcome. No hps, my hps days were many moons ago....maybe someone else who sees this can help you out.

Which one...4 strains....?

 

[Or_Gro]

Day 60 from flip:

6x96


8x288

 

[Norml56]

Which one...4 strains....?

Front left.

 

[Or_Gro]

Front left.

Front left (both tents) is jack herer....i musta cloned the worst pheno this strain makes...mouse testicle buds on pineapple leaves....worst plants, yieldwise, i’ve ever grown...

Seem to be finishing from bottom up, so maybe i’ll get a bongload or two...

The two on the right side, original glue (back) and green crack (front) are pre-flushing now, flush next week, start taking tops next weekend....i’ll let left side plants (trainwreck in back)go another week and decide whether to start finishing them

The others look amazing. That Jack Herer almost looks like it is stuck between flower and Veg. I'm really curious to read what the final weights of each tent are. Both tents have the same 4 strains, correct?

Thanks!

Yes, duplicate tents, except for lights..

These are the types of comparison grows I really want to see. What feels like a constant release of new lights from HLG it leaves me wondering what is the actual difference and do I really need to upgrade from my original 288's. I'm assuming your 288's are the V2? Visually the tents look almost identical. Was the light output kept the same as well?
