Talk about late response...sorry AN,
yeah attic is insulated and honestly not that hot, but i'm definitely doing a par t5 setup and i doubt i'm gonna need to go full on perpetual, just have a mom in a tent and drop clones whenever i feel the need...
also gonna go scrog or lst with 2 girls, just need to decide about 1 vs 2 panels (4x8 or two 4x4s) and nail down a final bulb lineup
thanks for the thoughts!
be easy

I'd go with 2x 4 bulb panels. I gives you alot more options. I like my 8 bulb, but it's kinda tedious to deal with at times.

Salutations all, bout to switch bulbs out for the first time (not because of a noted decrease in yield or anything, too much cultivar rotation to be able to tell) thought it would be a good time to check on the ol' thread. How is everyone's setup working out?
Thinking of doing a SOG with like 2-4 weeks of extra veg before flip under a setup like this:
fs/cw/fs/rw (x3) and adding reptisuns UV cfl and 6500K/2700K twin-splitter hanging side-lighting when the canopy could benefit from it
(florasun = fs, coral wave = cw, reef wave = rw)---estimating like 2nd-4th week of 12/12, this also seems to be the best time to introduce the UV supplementation although have left it on for perpetual runs to more that satisfactory results--UVs are on for 6.5 hrs usually timed with the other CFLs (Think midday).
thoughts? this is a 2x4 darkroom tent, for the SOG thinking 6 kandy kushes but might do 3,3 if this purple afghani pans out (purple kush x afghani 1 from sensi)
The KKs loved the CW/6500k/CW/6500K and trying to improve on those results, figured the florasuns for an improvement.
Peace

i figured that would be a downside to red fluoros.... oh well keep us updated! do you happen to know the luminosity?

the graph was posted on rollitup before the server crashed, i happened to save it as an image file!

That was determined to be a fake some time back. There was a deal worked out where one was geing mailed to uvl and they were going to hook us up with a chart. Haven't heard anything of it in a while though.

Huh? What are you even talking about? What graph? Do you have access to my image files or something because I don't remember posting it yet. LOL???????
okthanks2

Found it, I highly doubt you've even seen this graph before, it was posted long before you joined the forum. Then I guess the server crashed and quite a bit of info was lost including this graph that was posted. I don't even remember who posted it originally, but I remember them saying they had their old physics professor do the spectral reading for them? Something like that anyway.

^^^^^^^your welcome^^^^^^^
knew it would come in handy some day, I don't tend to throw away much anymore. As you can see the Fiji Purple is a really great bulb. I have been using it in my T5 setup for months and haven't switched it out for obvious reasons. I keep 4 of them in my fixture during veg and flower and have had nothing but positive results. I use 4 Fiji Purple bulbs, 2 UVL Red Sun, and 2 UVL Super Actinic for flower and I think I get better results than under any HID! Puts out a real nice magenta color between them all.

Pics, or it didn't happen. That's one hell of a claim to make without substantiating it. I wouldn't give my IP to a mod either if he asked. For the same reson you wouldn't give that mod your home address I would bet.

That spd is for a sylvania hps in europe. According to Sylvania the fiji is different from the ati purple plus.. all they would say about fiji spectrum is that its 6% red spike at 650 nm. Yet I came across something from thomas a while ago saying the large red is at 630.... So who knows

'IF" that graph is actually a commercially available Fiji, I would not use it to veg, unless I saw conclusive proof that all that 650+ red didn't force flower prematurely. For veg I am using Quantum Grow (6500s) + Aqua Suns + Coral Wave
For flower, it looks like it provides more than enough blue; although one UVL SA wouldn't hurt.
I use 2 Aqua Sun in veg only 1 in flower
