And like I mentioned earlier oddly enough the nug that was severed seems to be the largest lol. And it's not even in the best lighting spot.

And also I'm interested, in what dose to you use that?

I use it at 0.5g for 100L.. works out to around 3ppm (if that) , I'll then dose it every day to keep a steady 1-2ppm of free chlorine ! It works out sooo much cheaper than HP especially if using the 3-12% shop bought stuff!.. Hydrogen peroxide you need 100ppm+ .

Yea I'm only using 4tsp of 3% once a day to the 4 gallon of water. But I've heard nothing but good things about the pool shock.

Exactly lol I probably read the same things you've been reading and took the plunge! I've got a practically full 12% 1L bottle and a half bottle of 9% peroxide just sat here now....probably endb up using it for sterilizing scissors and shit.

Those look nice I don't understand why you don't see more grows with the calif.lightworks gear I'm glad I bought one & I haven't even fired it up yet lol soon I'll have pick between the 2 clones I have I'm trying to set it up where I harvest 1 tent every 45 days

Yea I was between them and I think KIND lights. The only thing is do those models you purchased have the switch for flower/bloom? Also I'd suggest including some UVB like included on the 440.

Yea and this is my first go with sky high water temps :-/. I gotta get some more powerful pumps and give the chilled RDWC another shot.

Well I also thought about it, LED has failed on the grow scene for it looks like quite some time. If you have been around and used your tried and true HPS light your gonna be slow to believe any claims LED is working.

Me being new to the scene and doing research it looked like the best long term answer(although rather high upfront cost.)

I used hps for a long time I'm on my 4th led grow I haven't got over 7 zips yet but that's about to change my last doubledream (75% blue dream 25%stardawg) is some of the most potent I've grown it just don't stretch under the led after the flip the clw light I have can either be hooked up to a timer or a programmable controller that allows you to change the light color percentage it's extra so I'm just running the regular timer for now 2 areas where the led shines so far is quality of the product & operating cost the rest I'm working on

Well I'm actually looking for some input. I'm sick of leak issues so I'm not gonna tap into the sides of any buckets. So I have to buy some new buckets any ways. They are a bit more pricy, but should I just get another 2 of those 12 gal square buckets or stick with my 5 gal buckets for the actual plants?They look like happy ladies in there.
Can't wait to see the results when you have the new build figured out!

When you weren't getting more then 7 zips how many watts of led were you giving them?

I think defoliation becomes more prudent with LED to get around its lack of penetration.

At this point I could see maybe my little one giving only 7, initially my goal for both was a total of 12. Now my goal is for my big girl to have 12 alone....times a ticking and we shall know soon.
