What's up fellas!
This will be an 80cri 3000k vs 90cri 3000k Quantum board side by side grow. Everything in each tent is exactly the same. This grow is not for gpw but to see what if any difference on bud size, quality and finish time.
Two 2x2.5 Gorilla tents with 6" Hyperfans and interior fans.

There's 2 plants in each tent. A #1 and #2 pheno of Headbanger from Karma genetics (Sour Diesel x Biker Kush).
2 gallon pots with nutrifield 70/30 coco and half gs-2 Growstones.
Plants will be fed Jacks 321 with a tbls of Ful-power per gallon. Mammoth P at week 2. I'll introduce .5 gr of Jacks blossom booster around week 4 or 5 this time and Terpinator at week 6.

Each tent has 4 3000k QB288 boards mounted on two Slate 2 heat sinks. These things are sleek!
Each tent powered by HLG-320H-C2800.
The 80cri has the a version and 90 has b.

These girls were already over 4' tall when I crammed them under the screens so this is a very unconventional scrog.

Each tent is being run at 200w and today is day 1 of flower.
Any technical questions please refer to the diy QB thread here https://www.rollitup.org/t/diy-with-quantum-boards.927159/
You can purchase the boards @ https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/
Big thanks to @robincnn and @Stephenj37826 for making all of this possible for myself and the LED community. These boards are the future and the future is now!
Hope you guys enjoy the ride.
Let the summer showdown begin!

Interesting show down, subbed...! Reflektions above the canopy an the back wall clearly shows the more redish spectrum of the cri90. Nice!
I'm wondering if the results of theDAWG will be confirmed or if only the defoliation was the cause of the different final weights?

Interesting show-down! Definaltely subbed...:bigjoint:
Nice redish reflections at the backwall above the CRI90 canopy..:P
I'm wondering if the results of @The Dawg will be confirmed or whether the defoliation and shorter time
required was the cause of the different final weights. :confused:
I love these spectrum comparisons because they make it so much easier to find the optimum spectrum for every application. Keep up the good work, bro!:clap::clap::clap:

Not to burst anyone's bubble but I think the red reflection is the Scrog screen. Spectrum is definitely more red shifted though.

Nice to see another CRI comparison. These are interesting.
Think you may need a second net? I always did when bending big girls under like that.
Here for the show!

So did you have to request the 90cri boards or are all the new ones 90cri ?
Please ask this in Quantumboard thread linked in the first post, tons of infos there and it's the all-in-one thread about QB's.
