Thanks very much iv now put the boards on 183w which is max from the drain vet and turned the cobs down abit, and I did have them off but as soon as I added them and raised the light to suit I seem to get better growth, and means I don’t have to have the light right down on top of them. Also my...

This is the info iv been trying to find for so long, I do feel it’s wasted light, but if I turn the boards up my top leaves burn on the edges, almost like if I had them at 80w a board I’d need the 2ft away lol. See my dilemma? What would you do? Thanks

Thanks, I ask as I’m redoing the frame so it’s sqare and 1mx1m to spread things out abit

Need opinions on what to do, i have 9 cxb3590 and 4 qb304. The cobs running 390w and the 4 boards running 120w between the 4. Iv been advised running the boards like this isn’t really worth it. Now, I’m thinking I should take out 3cobs and run the boards at 60w each for 240w from the 4 boards...

Would imagine they would be cheaper from China

That was before I’m on a new grow now. Without a par meter how can I know what is too much? My lux meter is ok but no good for what I’m after. So I’ve taken the reflectors off still have it up high. So I have 6 cxb3590 3000k at 200w and 4 304samsung 3500k boards at 177 between the 4. Which...

That was my first photo run also with leds so was a learning curve done 3 years of Mephisto autos but changing to photos, these baby’s are autos whilst I get the light right with a quick run. Have 5 hso trainwrecks regs germinating to replace them. And thanks

Tops are all good they just don’t extend down as far as they did with the hps

I trained before but seemed the light just wasn’t going down where I wanted it,

I’m starting to think your right and it’s not he problem in this situation but iv not been able to use them since getting them as each time the plants go droopy or look like this just late in flower when I want as much light as I can

But also to ad the people I see use them also run at 50w 1400ma I couldn’t get anywhere near with full on flower

Light distribution isn’t the problem I do 4 plants under the fixture so it covers them ok, it’s the depth of the buds I need to get to. I was getting nice tops but not much lower, if anything I’d need to lollipop more than I did with hps, but every grow I see with big buds also have reflectors...

Sounds interesting. I have to admit iv never used either product of nutes before. Normally biobizz root juice but I’m switching to coco and going with the canna range

I have the kingbrite 90* reflectors. All the feed the 4 plants have had is 4ml per litre of rhyzo and a dash of mammoth p

Yep bio buzz light mix same as iv used for 3 years and a Mephisto white crack I ran once before, I also have 2 chemdogging that are not as bad but curling. 1 cd is in soil 1 in coco but the coco seed is younger

Or am I totally wrong that par doesn’t follow inverse sqare law? And that photons rain down until they hit something?

This is what I thought. My reason for wanting to use reflectors is that if the light has to be at 24 inch’s il have more light 12 inch’s into my canopy than if the light has to be 12inchs, I might have 6

I run from seed every time as nowhere to keep mothers and no access to clones but I always start with full light just higher and never had a problem but it’s the intensity with the reflectors I’m confused about
