I'm also running mixed lighting and am thoroughly impressed with the results.Lol proof is in the pudding. 400 true led watts and 400 hps watts The light spectrum on the roleadro is close to the cree lights. I also have heard the theory mixing hps with led has its benefits and could grow more potent bud. Once again guess I can personally find out in 5 more weeks

Mmm gorilla glue! Got a gg #12 pheno clone from local shop pretty stoked to veg it out! Do you have a link to your grow? If not u should make one I'd love to follow it!
I'm up north. I actually was born in Hanford CA. But ended up moving up to salem OR as a kid. I'm medical too, both me and wife are. Plus were recreational too.I'm running eight GG#1 clones and two GGx4-S1's
I will work on starting a log over here.
My current run is the first I've ran led/hps mix...I have incredible vigor, resin production and flower growth. So it will be interesting to follow your log.
Whereabouts are you located? I'm in Hanford, CA
Medical card holder and state recreational

Looks beautiful mate.
they are doing great so far! very stable genetics with great frost popping early. I'm def going to be sticking to this as one of 2 of my indica sleepy time meds. I plan to run 2 indicas, 2 50/50 hybrids, and 2 sativas. just to have balance. one of the hybrids will be pennywise which is a 50/50 of thc to cbd if I'm correct. around 15% each. oh and they stretched from 20 inches to about 34 inches in their 3 week stretch. worked out great for my scrog setup. as for the cfls I totally hear yea and I totally mean to but they are just corner lights to help the corner buds but u know I might as well make a cone at least lol but like I said its just additional corner lights for the spots that get the least amount of par. I plan to switch it to 40-50 watt single cfl for each corner. I have plenty of single bulb reflectors and that should do the trick. ill take pics after I make shift mcgyver it lol who knows maybe the buds will push harder and I can thank u for the added yield ps thanks for the first tip!So what did you think of Dream Machine? I have two seedlings.. Just wondering what to expect and wondering if I should keep them going..
Also, just a tip, Get some reflectors for those CFL's in Veg, Just cut up a dashboard reflector or something and attach to the light. I recently did a test and found that I get 3x the FLUX on my plants with a simple 50 cent reflector.
