Have to add.. that spanish customs made me pay about 60 dollars more.... Even with that..if I would buy nutrients in a spanish growshop (like canna or advanced nutrients...) my cost in 5 years could be about 1000 $... So at the end they are 5 times cheaper even importing them.

Your lights look fantastic, I think you will get better mileage if you hang those much lower, I think light manufactures have their recommended light height too high , they do this to gain better coverage stats per watt, in flower.... light height will matter more.... your plants look good, if it were me id do a top down heavy (as in all) fan leaf strip, the opposite to lolly popping, use your lower leaves near the lower level of growing media as your solar trap and let the light to penetrate to the ground through your bud sites. for best yeild its better to strip fan leaves top down rather than bottom up. It ten days after the leaf strip you will find the leaves surrounding the stems will have 75% filled in the space that your leaf strip first provided and you many need to repeat again and again until the 3-4th week of flower. (p.s sorry I replied to a old post)

Thanks for the suggestion, sounds like a good idea but I had already cut all the lower growth off already. I'm in the process of modifying the flower room, going to mothball the kind for now and use 4ea quantum 288 boards 3000k, 4ea) quantum 120 boards 3000k. and my 2 cob fixtures, one full spectrum, the other, warm white. I may not need the cob's.
Here's what I've got so far, held up on the other 288 fixture but I may not need it. I did add a 200w ceramic heater that is on for 8 hrs a day since the room was getting down to 56 deg with lights out.
With the stretch maybe i should trim the top fans to let the light further down?
