You just stumbled upon this gem?

 

[Rocket Soul]

What is a SoN?

Yeah lol

What is a SoN?

I don't know sorry

 

[Rocket Soul]

With both of the plants weighing in at just over half ounce total its a bit hard to make relevant conclusions...

In morphology you see more branching on the HGL plan than the SoN plant

 

[cobshopgrow]

i think SON is a term used by one brand for a HPS, so culd be 400w HPS.

 

[PSUAGRO.]

Yeah son-t hps bulb

 

[coreywebster]

Yeah the old go to bulb in the 80s-90s I think, made by Philips.
One of the first hps bulbs for plants.
I found a few in my house when I moved in, hidden in the BBQ, they didn't work

Edit, just realised what the XB200 is!!

 

[Rocket Soul]

Now we can reach the conclusion that 80s hps grows a plant twice as shit as Hydro grow led.

At least in the hands of a newb.

 

[cobshopgrow]

i remember, wow thats long ago.

why is this here

A one off test is not reliable. At all.

I say this because even same clones can grow very differently if affected by even the smallest factors.
Example - i put 8x clones of GMO in my notill bed 2 wks ago. Some stretched and pushed side branches and will yield double what some others will that didnt stretch much.
My guess is that some get closer to ideal lighting and soil moisture depending on where they are in the bed exactly.

Run same exact test again and you could literally get the opposite results.

That xb200 board has been beaten twice already, afaik, by hlg fixtures. It was last summers big drama. But still it seems to get back to haunt us.

An excellent, important point that deserves to be made from time to time.
