Lets hear it
Many moons ago (pardon the obvious pun....), I studied & was heavily involved in stock markets (particulary US-based Futures contracts).

One of world's biggest markets is the NYSE. The ES, YM etc...etc.... are all futures contracts based on the constituent parts of the NYSE.

New York has a very large Jewish population, so it stands to reason that a large number of the professional (institutional) traders are Jewish.

There are a number of traditional Jewish holidays where no work is permitted. These most often occur around full moon.

If the "Big Boys" (ie. institutional traders) aren't playing at those times (since they're observing those holidays) & their HUGE funds aren't able to push/hold/influence the markets in any particular direction, then we're looking at retail traders, who have small funds available & they can't have any influence on the markets overall.

Since there's no "Big Money" involved, the markets won't move one way or another & tend to stagnate, or showing erratic/volatile movements in the charts. It's all there in the charts if you study them each full moon/Jewish holiday where no work is permitted.

That's my theory & I never traded around full moon.

There are "other" theories.........

Sounds like you’ve got your head around it ozy! Takes a while to get the hang of it and then dial everything in but when you do, that’s when the results will show!
When dosing co2 is when I got a lot better at reading my plants (I’m sure you were the same?)
I’ve got a 4 burner generator and found it was a bit too big for my 2m x 2m x 2m tent.
Once in a 3m x 3m room I found I had less fluctuation to my set point.
what size generator do you have in what size room/tent ozy??
Similar to you in size, and a small lung room and small Mum / clone tent. I’m using tank C02.
I’m switching on at -100ppm from set point and off at -50ppm from set point and still getting +200ppm over set point. I’ve got the unit sensor sitting about 15cm above canopy. Went and hired a certified pre calibrated C02 unit when I commissioned the room and it was spot on with the readings from mine, except mine updated faster.
It does drop reasonably fast and settles around set point before gradually decreasing as the plants uptake. I’m ok with that.

Not designed for hobby growers

Yeah everything about this light is designed for large wherehouse grows. Not the best for tent grows unfortunately but i got these at bargain basement prices right when Phillips first released the 315w lamps as a kind of product tester reviewer kind of deal so im not complaining and i do love them.

Still kind of miss the old 400w mastercolor lamps though

That makes sense.

Pada didnt need to spruik them though, they get plenty of attention on the thread, (no offence @PadawanWarrior )
None taken man. I don't visit this thread much since I'm not an Aussie. I just saw this thread, and that Aussie light thread, and thought it may help someone. You're guys Aussie thread is pretty active and always popping up, peaking my interest so I can't help but check it out sometimes. I'd love to check out Australia. I'm kinda jealous. I've never met an Aussie I didn't like mate, lol.

I have never heard of them before so it didnt hurt.

I dont spend as much time in forums etc anymore. Or chasing the next best inovation like i used to either.

Used to spend as much a i made trying new things and buying new lights etc. These days I'm not really interested unless im expanding or replacing something that broke.

The truth is when i crunched the numbers on making my own leds i found if i wanted to match the output of my 630w set up I pretty much had to use about the same wattage in leds.

Almost every led manufacturer was trying to say i could use like half the power.

Those guys recommend for my space about 700w which i totally agree with. Its refreshing to see some honestly in the industry.

All good mate. Perhaps you were expecting antisemitism from me???? No!!!!!!!!

Some of my best mates from school days & playing in a band are Jews. I've waded-in when some dickheads on a street in Elsternwick started giving us a hard time about being Jewish - "I'm a fucking Irish Catholic ya dumb cunts & these are my mates. Wanna try another go at ME???".

They backed-off.

Sounds like you’ve done all you can do, but it’s not too bad of a fluctuation.
Maybe play around with sensor positioning if you haven’t already?
Not sure about the co2 tank but the generator (lpg) produces a lot of heat and adds a lot of humidity (byproduct being water vapour)
So any bigger swings in co2 for me affects environment quite a bit.
