I work the CMH and quantum board combo as I told before and they work very nice together. Quantum gives a lot of calyx and CMH makes the buds hard as rock. I run at 1000watt the CMH and 480watt the quantums in a 4x6 canopy. If you can control the temps you grow a jungle.

Those buds look like they are chalk full of PGR’s and have literally 0 trich production.

They are still using old LED tech in that comparison. Clearly the authors of this site are very out of touch with modern LED grow lights. In fact, they seem to be about two steps behind, as the latest and greatest LED systems are rack/bar type fixtures, but that site isn't even caught up with their predecessor, quantum boards; they are still back in the COB era. Catch up buddy, before you get left behind in the dust.
 
Looks like jungleboyz arent claiming anywhere near the yields everyone speaks of... in link above those plants look tiny.. like 12 inches ... its nice to see a large grow use them..Cali is going to make them mandatory at some point so maybe its better to be ahead of the curve for some these guys... but still DE HPS looks like king of the Hill

I don't think they have harvested that room yet to even know what their return is. Also not sure how you can tell how tall they are since you can't even see thru the canopy to the bottom. I guess you are a little caught off guard to see your beloved jungle boyz using new tech. That's ok, you'll get over it, lots of big commercial growers are using LED now and crushing it. Like someone else said, check out the GML show, and catch up to the new tech. I can't speak for anyone else except myself, and I can say that after growing with a 600w HPS for years, I'm happier using my 480w HLG QB96 rig instead.

My beloved jungle boyz lol those fools are clowns... just a multimillion dollar group that has mad loot to spend ... that canopy looks like peanuts compared to their regular grows... and honestly ur opinion from a 600w HPS grower is the last Id look for to be honest..
Not looking for budget growers opinions on growing commercial rooms... thanks for trying though... ur pic of that tiny nug is what I think about when it comes to lights with 10 inch penetration ability

Guy, you seem to dismiss everyone. Someone else showed you some thick buds and you said they weren't quality. I showed you a quality bud and you say it isn't big enough. I can show you big nugs too, and then you will say something else dismissive.

This guy seems to have LED lighting working out ok for him.

Obviously as a large scale 600 watt grower... you've never seen a real canopy... that IG account does not help your case either... all these LED grows are nowhwere near 1G/Watt .. lucky if their even 0.5 grams ...

I took this advice and DM'd to the author of the post. If Nebula responds I'll post what she says.
