Sorry for the poor pics. This is pretty much the size of my buds throughout my kings kush and black dog. Start of week 5 of flower. Am I crazy but are these not gonna get any bigger? They just don't seem to be packing any size on. Ive had issues throughout with KK but the black dog seemed solid.

Should I just set my 600w HPS at the top of the tent and blast them with some photons?

Just give them some time, they have stretched put on buds and now they will begin to fatten.
Looks good Bud,

Fattening can happen quite late in the cycle. They look nice. :0)

Thanks guys youve put my mind at ease. Too used to fast autos.

@gr865 @Javadog.

I was considering buying supplements.. Amino and carbs.

Double check your math because the numbers you provided prove his point.

2275 is 2/3rds of 3412
2150 is the BTU/hr output from two 315w LEC according to you

That's pretty fucking close.

I think he's just jealous of his avatar...lol

Seen nice things with these 315's. My understanding is buds mature a bit faster and get frostier. Surely the frost is UV related, but is the faster finishing a UV thing, or a spectrum thing?

I am fairly new to 315's but my last run was a horizontal grow with a 315 and and LED.
I normally do not go by the breeders recommendation on flowering time, usually it by trich viewing. Well I went with their recommendation and it may have been the 315 making it mature faster, I don't know, but that plant went way over mature. To the point that quality suffered. Was a 56 day flower plant and I should have gone 45 to 50 days


Lesson learned will continue trich viewing for harvest time.

Ive never seen any quicker harvest times running cmh vs hps. I did cut back 1.5 week veg growth due to cmh having superior growth vs mh.

Below is darlins net (dansbud pheno)

Pic is taken 49 days from flip. 12 more days to go.

This cola is as big as a 20oz pop bottle. Rock hard, and super frosty.
+1gpw every run

Awesome! What's your preferred nutes if you don't mind me asking! Do you also use the daylight bulb for flower?

Ive heard the Agro isn't as advantageous to use in the flower phase.

I used the 4000k bulbs in veg for the fist time and I found for my strains the nodes were tighter. I can also add that the cali-0 this run is from the same batch of seeds as last time and the nodes are tighter. Last run they were over 5 feet tall. The only difference between this run and last besides the bulb is that I gave them bud blood the week before and the week of 12/12. Last run I did it only the week of flip.

My last run under CMH my crop finished in about 4-6 days earlier than it has ever before. Same area , same strain, same medium, only difference was this time i put a CMH between my two HPS lights.

I'm wondering if anyone out there runs the T9 315w bulbs in open hoods or not. They only have one jacket and are brighter than the T12 double jacket bulbs. Does anyone live life on the edge running these bare?

DO NOT RUN THE T9 IN AN OPEN HOOD! It's made for sealed hoods ONLY! If it explodes, the t9 will set your floor on fire. The t12 has a 2nd jacket designed to keep the exploding glass inside and not on your floor.

I run 930 in flower, and 940 in veg.

Which leads me to my next question, are these CMH bulbs known for exploding?

Not really but they are glass lamps. Imagine spray misting one by accident.

Spray missing one?
Spray misting one?

Can spraying in veg, cause your bulb to rupture should you potentially get any on it

it can happen,yes

Good word DT

Water on hot glass can cause it to shatter.

Big drops of water...yes...
A fine mist...no...

This is not a recommendation..


I always mist my veg plants(3x a week)...lights of 24hr..

Not a RECOMMENDATION!,!,!

spraying a very fine mist...gets foggy in that room.
