I looked at the PLCs but i missed the bars... they look pretty sharp. Im having a little trouble understanding their footprint charts though...

How so?

I'm pretty sure they recommend about 2x4' coverage for each bar so 2x for a 4x4'.

Outdoor coming along, nice fat colas/buds getting closer to the finish line

Well... over one chart is a (2) and the other has a (3) making me wonder what the difference between the two are?

Sorry... i am a noob when it comes cobs....

measurements at 2 and 3 feet away

Thats what i was figuring... the numbers seem a little lower than the Tasty lights, if im reading the charts right,...lol

Is there something specific about the PLCs that caught your attention? Otherwise they seem pretty similar to the Tastys... much sleeker look though...

Bro don't count out Northern Grow Lights either

Plenty of grow journals with these and he just listed the new ones with the gen 7 vero's I would be all over one of those at his price if I had a space that "needed" one.

Tasty's numbers check out under independent verification, that's the difference.

I second this, along with a good look at Johnson Grow Lights' offerings. His Maximizer is a great drop in replacement for a DE HPS fixture; less watts, better spectrum, better light distribution and more PPfD.

I was looking at the Johnsons first if you recall. (We talked) But that didnt happen. availability seems to be a problem. Unless things have changed in the last few weeks...

Just the bar format, nice design, water resistant. GreenGenes007 here is one of the owners and knows his shit. These were designed for more commercial grows but if the price was close I'd give them a try, not the right fit for my space though, I need smaller bars which is why I went for the Tasty's, they're well built and supported.

There are so many out there, as long as they're 3590 based and decent bin range you can't go wrong. My primary preference is given to the bar formats because of their flexibility to run multiple footprints. With the 200w to 400w single fixture you're pretty well limited to the space they cover off, little flexibility if you want/need that, otherwise they're all very capable of producing quality bud.

Don't count them out. I'm pretty sure @Stephenj37826 has something up his sleeve, you might drop him a line.

The bar design is appealing to me because of the flexibility. It fits what i have now for space and when i rebuild soon i wont be restricted... and can add whatever...

Agreed. Bars are better. Even better than... nevermind. You don't live in Nevada.

Upcoming vegggers in 2gal now, held them in 1gal's thinking they'd go another 3 weeks from now but had to up-pot them last weekend as they were suffering in 1gal's. I may end up flipping them this coming weekend, not happy with the current batch in flower, may just hash them and do a reset. I have another 2x Blue Ripper x Blue Dream fems in 3gal now so I may just up-pot these 2gal below into 3gal and run all six 3gal's together. Will depend on time available this coming weekend.

I had just super-cropped them all for their final training before taking the pic. Pic was Sunday and they've already bounced back and new growth is starting to show up.2nd pic front row is the 2x Blue Ripper x Blue Dream fems, the one on the right is smelling awesome, has nice colouring, and has the Blue Ripper 9-finger leaf trait. A real mix between the Blue Ripper and Blue Dream smells in veg.



Blue Ripper (M) x HSO Blue Dream (F) testers:

Nice! can't wait to see these girls in action

Cheers Evil, if I run all six together the only one out of place will be the Plemon but she can hold her own. All the others would have some relations in the room, that JTR was the original mother to all the Blue Rippers and that Blue Dream is the mother of the BR x BD's in the second pic

Some good genetics there.

If you don't mind I will list it here. The testers I am popping are Sasquatch X Malawie and Timanfaya Devil X Original Haze

Some nice tasting fire in those genes for sure, my GF can pick out when I'm smoking the F2/P3 or 5 pheno's of the Blue Ripper, she says I look super stoned, can't go out in public when I'm smoking it Those crosses sound good, have some original haze to pop, picked up a bunch of genetics, lots of old/established F10+, IBL's, some 100% sats and Indica's from all major regions. Start of a long breeding project with some old school shit, should be fun. Will list them all when I get the list together and the info on each, did like 6 or 7 orders from about as many seed banks through August/September

The testers look lush. They should do well, whatever the turn into.
