Hi BL - Cool!
Subscribed!
Can you please take some pics with the lights off so I can see the natural colors of your girls?
Cheers,

Oh - it is Holy Smokes Malawi under 2 6500K 110W CFLs (from Ace Hardware) and I was adding my Kessil H350 Magenta to see if that would boost growth. She seemed to get over cooked from the intensity. I really want to get the Deep Purple.

How old ? I was actually thinking of switching to 18/6, it is just so easy to leave the lights on thought. So far I love the deep purple. Granted I'm a noob and the only comparison I have are a few plants that I butchered originally that are in flower now, But the girls seem to love the deep purple light. I really want to add some magenta to my flowering tent . I'm running a 600w hps at the moment , Ideally I would love to have 4 magentas and 2 deep purple set up around the 600w. . right now I'm just trying to get these girls finished without any problems with a half way decent yield.

I put the Magenta over a houseplant and it got a whole bunch of new flowers and the stems goth thick and hard. The center of the plant grew quicker towards the light. I like that it does not get so hot. But it did fry this plant when it was a seedling.

The first picture is Day 49 vegging - but that is longer than it should be. I broke the seedling clean off at the stem and somehow was able to keep her alive. I will put a link here to the whole story. It is on this cool journal by Lordjin.
 
So I got bored Last night and ended up tying down the Kali mist, the white siberian and one of the WW's. In two days I'll update the pictures with the lights off so you can see the natural colors again. I didn't originally plan to do a lot of LST and HST but I like the interaction a lot more and its definitely awesome how the branches grow.In the first 3 pictures the Kali mist is on the bottom right and in the last its on the top right.

I like the kessils. For the past 3 weeks The 3 white widows have been under just 1 kessil h350 in a 2x2 and seem to be doing very well. I'm hoping they don't hermie since they are greenhouse seeds. Here's some updated picture of the white widows, They are now 6 weeks from seed. They have been topped and also had some low stress training.I am also experimenting with pruning the fan leafs so that more tops can show through

It is so cool when I turn off the CFLs and the leaves look black under the Kessil. No reflected light - 100% absorbed by the leaf! I changed my light timer to 16/8. Will keep changing by 2 hour increments until I reach 12/12.

Those girls are loving the Kessil H350 Purple. I use that same light to veg. I also add my Kessil H350 Magenta when switching to flower, and run them both. It makes for a strong dual spectrum, with slightly more red, as the Magenta dominates.

Subbed. I was gifted 2 Kessil h150 purples and am going to be gifted two more, so I am very interested in seeing how the plants respond. I will be ditching the CFLs i have been using with my Blackstar 135 and go full LED with the BS and the Kessils. Good luck OP.
