Fuckin A dude! You are this much closer to huge frosty colas. My girlfriend and I are just finishing up grow #2. Not the greatest but much better than my first. In another month when we start our third round it will be nice because we have everything ready. It wont be a purchase as the issues arise kind of thing. Even with a plan we had money issues and purchased things late. I am sure this will slightly lower our overall yield.

With a 600 watt I would stay about 20 inches away maybe 18. Unless a closed hood and air cooled. Kick ass dude. Bigger better buds next time!

Humble Rep + .. Looks like heat as well as a possible cal/mag deficiency from hell due to a possible lockout .. Not sure as the photos are distant

Thanks for the info Slipon I had my temps 79-81F I have 4 small fans, 1 large fan, 2 humidifiers keeping my humidity at the right level and a duct connected to a squirrel cage blower for ventilation. I also run my AC while my lights are on and even though the temps werent that bad and I could put my hand under the light and it not feel too hot.... Well you see what happened lol. I even kept two thermometers in the closet at two different heights

You have to keep your hand there for about 3 minutes if you want to do that test. It takes a while to warm up and it's a pain in the neck, literally. But it's a bit flawed because light intensity is enough to bleach leaves, I'm thermometer mad you should see all my probes dangling everywhere and in everything so I learned that lesson the hard way. Getting the right tools like Slipon has, a good lux meter, really goes a long way, it takes the guesswork out of it. It's my next purchase for sure.
