First plant harvested! These things kick ass.View attachment 3677822

Pheno 2 got a little too close. 12 inches apparently is too close. I call this one 3 sistersView attachment 3677821
highdave. that looks great. awesome size and density looks top notch.

i have noticed that the top buds on my plants are growing much larger under LEC then 1000w hortilux hps.
But the trade off is the bottom 1/3rd of my plants are much more airy and under developed then under hps.

how many plants are you guys growing per 315? i am running 4 per lamp but may consider doing less.
i really feel that with the size of colas and tops these lights would be perfect for some one growing SCROG. i may eventually take a stab at
it but i have a hard time trying to fix something that's not broken.

In vertical its the inverse how many lights per plant.!

Glad to see the thread growing, everyone's stuff looking sharp.
I'm about to hit flower on one of my girls, so I thought I would show some CMH root porn :-)

This is a 707 Truthband, about 45-50 day veg from clone, in a Perfect Pot (8x8x7"tall).

She was fed mainly Foliage Pro at 5ml per gal of RO water, with AZOS added for root love.


Here she is, sort of upskirt shot while transplanting to a 5 gal smart pot for the remainder of her time here.


And here she is moving into final home...apologies for less than stellar pics...will get better ones as the fun really starts.


She is going to flower out all by herself in a 39x39x79 tent, with her own phantom cmh kit. Hoping she fills the jars.

Have a great weekend guys!
Looking good how often are you feeding at 5ml/gal? I'm also using FP and am watering everyday with 1.25ml/gal

I'm sure it's possible. I've seen side by sides on a 1000 on a mover and 3 315. Gotta say 315 side looked much better. You will save for sure my bill went up 40 bucks after I set the tent up. Fans and all.

I will know soon in about a month how much I yield. Shooting for first week of may. I have holes in my canopy so that will take away. I want at least .5 per watt on this first run. But still 150 gs or so for personal use should be fine.
I saw that video he did a good comparison

Howdy 315 gang, Just got my large Truthband into her final flower home.
Her set up is a 39x39x79 tent, 315 Phantom 3100K, couple clip on fans, and a Phresh 6x16 carbon/exhaust.
She is in a 5 gallon Smart pot, sitting in a 2x2 flood tray, drilled on the edge for tie downs. I've stopped the FP for now and she is on Emerald Harvest, the transition formula, and begins flower cycle tonight.
Here she is from the side before moving into tent:

And here she is in her tent, getting the final tie down and judicious trim tonight:

I will tie her down to even the canopy out, and she should should fill out the tent nicely.

Well, wish it was more exciting ATM, but will keep you updated and the fun gets going.

Peace!

What are you talking about, not exciting? That girl looks great and it's fun to hear that you're using tie downs instead of the usual SCRoG screen. Back in the day, I did tie downs and it worked just fine.

Good memories of good times!

Keep up the great work!

I am glad to join the club. Just got the 315w CDM $200 ballast + bulb from the ATS guy. Best price around and shipping was like Amazon Prime.

I've got a 3' x 3' tent and have messed around with 400w HPS, 600w HPS, 400w CMH. and now this 315w LEC. It's only been a couple days but the light seems more penetrating than my previous 400w CMH bulb.
I've been running mine for awhile and I'm very happy with them.

i think any training that gets your buds to an even canopy is best in any horizontal setup, although maybe it matters less in a really high powered setup. idk. my first run was 4 plants in scrog, this current one is more of a free style sog with 12 plants and the next one almost ready for the flowering tent will be 4 mainlined plants to 32 tops.

Lol. His question was if it worked best with scrog. You also use a type of scrog. I listed a few other ways to get an even surface for those photons to hit.
