Better yields than what wattage hps?

I thought I was getting more frost or a “better” high when I first tested the cmh 315 comparing to 600 super hps but after I took the cmh out the weed was still as frosty and potent. Just looked better under the more natural light.

It was mostly confirmation bias.

And the 600 consistently did 30% more yield with denser buds top to bottom.

But those numbers show a higher efficiency for the cmh.

I prefer them combined so far. I am testing a full run in a 3x3 tent next.
I'm sorry they were 600's with Ushio super hps.

:peace:

I'll be joining the club in a week or so, just waiting for shipping. Looking forward to flowering under something besides the 400w hps. I can't run a 600w in my little 3x3 tent so might as well go cmh seeing as that seems to be the 315w sweet spot anyway.

My seedlings are up and running. I ditched a slow deformed one as the other 3 are bright and vigorous.

So 3 POW 33 x Blue Lemon Thai for a 12/12 run in the 3x3 under a sun system remote open vertical reflector loaded with a Phillips 315w 3100k bulb run on a galaxy LEC ballast.

Funny I upgraded the os on my I phone and now the lines show up in my cmh pics. But last year on the old os the camera took clear pics.

Weird. Might have to use a room light and turn off the hid to document.

What yield are you getting doing 12/12 from seed with 315w cmh

Don’t know yet from the lone 315 in the 3x3 but under my 600’s I have been averaging about 4-5 oz dry and a jar or 2 of little and loose bud and bud leaf trim each plant of the ch9 seeds.

With 5 weeks veg under the 315 I was averaging 6-7 oz. but the plants get big.

They are mostly sativa leaning hybrids I’m growing. They get way huge for my little growroom with even the 5 weeks veg under the 315. Manageable under my t-5 fluorescent lamp.

But when I tested. 12/12 have the same results for yield and quality as 4 weeks under the t-5’s.

Just the plants had less leaves and thinner branches. Needed more stakes and tying.

So I’m running the flower room and the 3x3 12/12 from seed for now.

Looks like you finally got the right reflector for your CMH, notice a lot more intensity with the vertical bulb?

4-5 from seed? Pics?

I post pics all the time for a couple years now. I run a staggered perpetual with a plant or two harvested every week or two.

Just harvested this CH9 Herijuana jack a few days ago. Not weighed yet but will surely hit the average or better.
