Think I'm going to grab a couple of hortilux eye bulbs for my next run.

Check the hour ratings on them. The 600w has a rated life of 16,000 hours and the 1kw has a rated life of 24,000 hours. If you check out the lumen maintenance graphs, you will see that your still getting 90% lumens at 50% of the rated life with both bulbs. For the 600w, that's 8000 total hours before I replace. Now I'm not sure if you veg at all with them, but I only flower so 9 weeks x 7 days x 12 hours = 756 hours of 12/12 for 9 weeks. Bulbs will last nearly 10 cycles before dropping to 90% brightness. If you prefer 95% brightness, chuck em after 4000 hours or about 5 cycles.
You're saying that is good right? I just saw a comparison of plants that everything was the same except the bulb and it was pretty incredible to say the least. What bulbs do you veg with?
So
How much are you looking to pull per plant?
This time hopefully 1/2oz per, but I have a lot of blue cheese spread through there. Should be interesting to see where they Chronics weigh out.
This is my first time growing chronic. I was wondering how is the smoke? The reviews are not very helpful some say its great some say its trash. Can you give a 1st hand experience. I have 10 now and they are huge just flowered them after a 52day veg. In a 4x4 tray with a 1000w.
Can't wait to see the results. Very nice grow.
It's a pretty basic smoke honestly. It smells real sweet, looks hairy, and fluffy, but it gets the job done. Not a super stoney smoke, but that's ok by me.
Their AK47 is supposed to be real good, so is their white russian, bubble gum, etc. I'll grow some more exotic stuff in a year or so. I just want some quantity until I get better at it. Best stuff I've grown is probably mr nice ssh. I would like to try some of subcools stuff sooner or later. Namely querkle, qrazy train, etc.
