how would you know if I took a look at any of them links you posted? or better yet,i may have read them befor you even posted them...whats not "plausible"?..do you really know the def: of arguing?..i think what it states is what you are doing.not me..so do you have a all cmh grow? yes or no.

I know you haven't read them all. There is no possible way you read it that fast.. Plus when you said that the article you posted said the same thing as the Oxford studies. They don't at all. They say quite the opposite.

if you read my other posts prior. That would answer your questions.

Hung my 860w Philips CMH glass football ( AKA Lombardi Trophy) in my 5x5 just to get an idea. Think I'm going to need a bigger tent now.

I read oils from our skin can damage the hid bulbs. Not sure if its true nut you might want to wipe off you finger prints on the big ole thing.

I bet that shit is beyond bright. Should be fin to grow with.

I did wipe down. I usually handle bulbs with those soft rags for cleaning TVs...forget the name of them.

I use a sock, lol

^^^LMAO...is it at least a woolie?

 

[jigfresh]

Nah, just an old ass knee high hanes one. I'm fancy like that.

You can handle them fine, just wipe em down with ISO before turning on.

ISO...you mean like "in side out" sock?!

What do you guys recommend for a vert 5x5 tent using a 860w CMH? I plugged one in and did a hand test. I'd say 16" is the closest I would get with a good fan underneath. Want to go bare bulb too. Doesn't leave me much room left after an almost 3' diameter...15" from closest part of wall. Should I just SCROG the hell out of the 4 cramped plants? I don't like the idea of trimming backs. How close do you guys get with bare 600w HPS?

 

[jigfresh]

I get pretty close to my 1000w hortilux. As long as you keep the air moving over the bulb, you will have to worry about bleaching more than heat.

Thats the distance/size of my vert scrog with a 600 hps, I cant tell you about your light though as Iv never seen one running in person. Same rules apply you gotta make your own judgment call or find grows using this light. FYI in my system I can get the light 4" from the canopy as its on a mover, no mover and good airflow I usually kept my light around 15-20 depending on the footprint Im going for. At that point Im going for the most even light spread I can get.

Hope that helps some.


btw thats a cute ass bat you got there The fruit eaters give you a high nitrogen guano if I remember correctly.

Fruit eaters give you P...insect eaters N I use a lot of guano for feeding so I go with bat avatars...plus I dress up as Batman sometimes when I pound the old lady.

The 860w CMH runs about as hot as a 600 HPS if that helps.

 

[whodatnation]

Iv read different from other people using them, thats why I cant give you an accurate assessment on distance. Some said it ran hotter than their 1ks. All that extra uvb would also lead me to believe running it further away is ideal, just like when heat isn't an issue but bleaching is.

 

[RedCarpetMatches]

I think I'll just play it safe and keep it trained 16" away and do a smaller plant count. Thnx for input.

 

[whodatnation]

Please let us know how it goes, I am interested in these lights.
