@bk78 May I ask about the top of pot height and you being 6'4" .. Would you do it again or modify and start lower to the ground? You obviously pulled it off nicely and crawling around lower can be more painful than struggling to get a birds eye on things. Enjoyed every update thanx.

These pots are like 3” taller then any regular pot, not sure what you mean?

If I were to use a flood table it would work out to being the same height. Still not sure what you mean though. Grow trees, not shrubs!

My apologies for not being clear. I was talking about floor to top of pot height. Lower pots vs higher pots creating more or less work.

If I may - I think Redrum was asking about your pot / plant heights in relation to how hard / easy they are to work with.
Did the tall pots make working underneath easier - and did you make working the canopy harder by doing that?

Example being that my pots are on the ground - no getting under them for me, but a bird's eye view is (too) easy.

The functionality of your pots got the gears grinding in my mind - they might start turning after lubrication with more coffee & a bowl. bongsmilie

@bk78 i heard back from peter at pulse grow, his resonse is as follows -

hi, we're targeting the 400-700 nm range with the par sensor and spectrometer. We also have an NIR reading that targets the 850-1100 range. The resolution is pretty low for the spectrum analysis, we have 8 readings across the 400-700nm range, and the NIR, so 9 channels.

he never mentioned if he was using the same par sensor as apogee but to be fair i never asked...
i presume they are incorperating a seperate near infra red sensor for the 850nm - 1100nm, but it reads like it only has one sample point? so not sure how thats gona shake out...
and as i expected the spectrometer function is pretty limited, only covers the 400nm -- 700nm range with 8 sample points, so approx every 42nm. but still seems pretty good value for money really, a decent spectrometer can start at a couple of thousand dollars...

That option is the least of my concern anyways so I’m still pretty happy with my purchase at this point.

yer you should be its a sweet bit of tech.
im still going to order one, ill put the free pulse one in the veg room and the pulse pro in the flower room.

Hey BK do you flush just before you chop? If so just straight ro water without Phing / or ro phed to the correct ph or do you use a flushing agent I’m getting close to harvesting I’m on day 70 in coco and I’m not sure what I should do lol

I’ll be tapering down my feeds to roughly 1/4 strength starting my next reservoir fill and continue feeding that right up until I chop in about 3 weeks.
