I moved them up for first time yesterday.
They were and still are both at same height. They are probably 20” or so above tops.
i like to have some space to do my thing, and i don’t like moving lights up and down to do that. So as long as i have the headroom, i periodically check intensity with my meter and adjust with dimmers, then move up when i get too cramped or the leaves start reacting to the light.
Generally i do all the moving of lights during the 12:12 to end-of-stretch phase; before and after that they hardly move, and all intensity adjustments are w meter & dimmers.
Not sure if you know about it, but i mapped 1 thru 6 96s, at diff heights and diff wattages; i also mapped my timbers (288s). Info is on this site.
Basically the best, lowest power coverage for both lights is around 18-24”

Got sidetracked so was only able to get pics of the 96s before lightsout.

A few hours later:
Took off almost every basal fan leaf, and then some...they recovered well, almost praying...

I didn't know that, I'll check in the history. I wish there was glossary where people could place data like that, but only real data, and not thousands of pgs of comments, just verifiable data. It would make it easy to post links and reference stuff, would be nice to browse too... Like a Wikipedia for weed lol..

Unfortunately, on riu you can’t go back and add to old (ie 1st page) posts...would be nice feature; as would be ability to upload multiple pics at a time...

No smell real smell from them yet,...too early for the various terpene smells that arrive with trichs...not stressed (got vpd doing them well, knock wood), so minimal skunkiness...

Will start to harvest moms on Wednesday. This go round, will be testing air dry in paper grocery bags vs freeze dry in a harvest right machine.
Will harvest, trim, and weigh; then put half of each plant through each method. When “dry”, according to each method, weights will be taken, and mosture content of samples will be determined, using oven-dry and moisture meter methods.

Set up freeze dryer and vacuum pump, and tested both. Test method requires achieving 500 mtorr...
Ready to roll.
Dried material will be frozen, to be bubble hashed later...then pressed for rosin.
