NICE!!!!!! looks great. trim job looks good too.

How do you think the yield was? It looks just like one of the phenos i run of nirvana's NL.
Great looking bud congrats on the harvest.
I do not know on yield man I see some pics of people posting yields and it don't look right in comparison to the numbers posted so I will just wait for everything to dry and let the scale tell me. Thanks for the kind words I did wet trim on half the plant anmd doing dry trim on the other half just to see which I prefer. She was a wonderful plant to work with and the preliminary smoke is out of this world. I still can't believe I grew this at home lol........

I said I'd weigh in when I had an 860W CDM Allstart lamp up and running on a digital lfsw ballast- well it's up and running, and it looks a wee bit green compared to the 315W CMH lights in there. It's making a lot of light, I just couldn't say how much.

I do not know much about any cdm bulb except for the Philips 315. what would the benefits of a 860 Cdm bulb be.
Is the spectrum comparable to the elite agro bulb? I know you only use cdm for veg but would the 860 have any use in flowering.
Do they make a bulb with a spectrum that would be more suitable for flower?

Thanks for the update.

Does anyone have any experience with Double ended Cmh. the video i posted is has a guy who is starting to run one.

it looks like it will run off of any double ended ballast . I have lots of questions about this.

The bulb itself looks crazy. looks like 2 315 bulbs in one tube.

The spectrum of 860W CDM Allstart lamps is 93 CRI, and yes it grows plants very well indeed- just look at most of the pics in my thread from the past year or so.

The technology in 315W CMH lights and 860W CDM Allstart lamps IS THE SAME. Only the wattage specification is different.

Magnetic ballasts drive this lamp technology at about 30% efficiency. Lfsw ballasts drive them to 38-40%, it's no more complicated than that.

That looks fucking dank.
Have you grown out that cut before? is it a low yeilder?
First time for me. my top feed was a little to nitrogen rich I think the buds would have been fatter if I didn't screw that up. I'll post my yield in a few weeks when it's all dry. I have some Clementine going right now thats looking pretty good

I have been following this guys grow and I'm definitely impressed with the double ended CHM. it seems to be rocking the 5x5 with no problems.

Im seriously considering taking the dive and picking a de ballast to play with this winter. Anyone think this technology will catch on?
It seems like there is only one company making this light. But the price is right i think i could get the De CMH bulb, a de ballast and reflector for arounf the same price of a sun system 315.
