It is possible, but I have never had my plants bleech like these Autos. Cooltube, 400 HPS about 12" above, and man I actually had a couple white, albino lookin buds at harvest.

Either way, thats why im gonna run em outside, plant em far enouvh apart and hope for the best.

(Fucked up thing was I never once saw a pollen sack, and I check my girls daily)

hmm that is strange i keep my 400w about 12 inches or so off my plants and my led's about 16"
only time i had issues was my IR / UV emmiters were making crispy spots so i by passed them on the circut board

ya it really is if you have everything right and the genetics to go with it i figure 3/4 oz - 1.25 oz for a gal of medium if ive grown them before
around 1/4 lb from a 3.5 gal and it has become pretty common for me to do so
its funny i used to be happy when i would top them to get more then my normal 1 oz pull >.< and it was a 1/4 oz more at most

Mine is in a 5gal under 400w..
steady 77f and around 38% humidity.

Yeah I thought so myself, and it wasnt just one strain, I was all 3-4 i was running. I kept trying everything, finally dimming my HPS to 75% and moving it up another 6". After that, all new growth was fine. But at that point the damage was done and the bitches were stressed

I've never had that sort of issue with my hps.. If I wanted to I could rest my hand on my cool tube without getting burned.

Im not talking heat stress, im talkin light toxicity. It causes leaves and buds to bleech and turn white.

Never had that problem either. :lol:

tekdc911 · May 7, 2014

bulb type ? is it fresh ?
i run a 2000k lumatek high par HPS and ive had bleaching but more or less if they are within a few inches of the bulb

SirGreenThumb · May 7, 2014

I usually won't lower my light below 12" above the top.. Right now I have it probably around 3 feet above, but its still a seedling and my ducting won't allow it to go down that far anyway.
Here is the specs of my bulb:

E39 Base 400watt Apollo Brand HPS bulb compatible with electronic and magnetic ballasts (54,000 Lumens)
High Pressure Sodium's Light Spectrum Stimulates Flower Growth and enhances Fruiting
2000K Red-Orange Spectrum, Designed specifically for Professional Hydroponic Plant Cultivation
Expected Bulb Life: 24,000 Hours Improved Lamp Life and Lumen Output, 110V power voltage
Startup Time: 10secs allow 3-5mins for full Warm up. Please wait at least 5mins after power shut off before striking again.

I should probably get a new one. Looks a little burnt, so I know its gonna be lacking lumen output.
