For me, 4x4 - I have 4 plants, two under each lamp. 20-24" above canopy.

Just harvested 2 of the 4 plants I have going in the other tent last yesterday. From that, I would say the penetration of these 315's is about 18" for solid flower growth. Everything below that is pretty fluffy. I've started plucking the bottom 1/3'd of the plant of growth nodes and this was one of my easier harvests.

Here's one of 6 main branches I got off one plant, the other 5 are pretty similar. Shiva Skunk that went 62 days from flip. Guessing I'll end up with about a qp after it's dried.

I bought 2 of the vivosun low profile cmh

They came with no bulbs so I bought 2 x Phillips 3100k

Gonn flower 2 plants under a scrog I think. Was wondering how big to make scrog and how much longer they will need to veg to fully maximize the footprint

I got one in place.

These plants vegged under t5s , this cmh is on another level of brightness compared to the t5

Don't want to stress the plants or burn them up, any rough guidelines on distance to start the light away from the girls?

Dont mind the bit of droop, they were just watered before i put the light up

Start high, then lower until it's about 20" from the canopy. You're right, it's intense, especially coming from T5's.

Some folks just leave them at the top of their grow space and never lower/raise them. Can't make myself do that, old habits die hard.

Here's my 4x4 with a dual 315 five days after the flip to 12/12. I've had the light a steady 24" from the tops since they were about 6" tall at 1st week of veg in the tent. The only thing I've changed light wise is the dimming. Started at 60%, couple weeks later 85%, and now it's at 100%. The girls seem to like it, 3xCheese and 2xGG#4.

My god these lights are bright, the plants seem to absolutely love it.

Im still just running the one fixture for now, will finish up vegging these girls and then install the 2nd 315 for flowering. Im excited to see 2 of these in action during the flowering phase.

Hers a pic from earlier after a hard training session.... second is hours later

I start at 4 feet with the cmh. Vegging with t5s works great for me. Have never had a problem. They go to flower fast and frost up nicely. Will post a pic of superskunk tomorrow.

Hey everyone, which reflector is better for a 315w CMH, open wing reflector or those small hood reflectors that a lot of CMH's come with?
