I've got to suck it up and get me some cobs. It's hard to change from h.p.s./m.h.
it was a very hard move as I have a friend who bought 2 vipar spectra 1200s & doesn't like them but that being said they're not cobs I was really nervous about the purchase & wont have a complete evaluation until I harvest but my concerns are fading fast as these cobs are performing my light has cree3070s 3590s I think might be a tad better it's only been a couple of weeks but based on everything I've seen so far I'm turning into a believer on cob led's

Awesoem what swayed you from the 315 CMH just curious? I think you made a good choice though :)
you're gonna laugh ! my light money got used on emergency veterinary bills for my dog & as I was rooting around looking at lights one day I discovered ledgrowlightsdepot had future pay the led is roughly double the price of a cmh & I still believe the cmh is good bang for the buck my goal was a 315 first then transition to led & the main goal was to have a small cost efficient set-up that produces using a waterfarm(s) inspired by scottyballs & some of these dwc people who have achieved 1lb. with a 400 hps. I've discovered this is easier said than done & a lot of it is strain choice but it gives me a goal & a learning curve all at the same time now all I gotta do is pay for the light lol!

Well congrats either way. Yes the magic 1 lb number is not easy by any means.

This is motivational, never tried Dwc or hydro but it sure makes me want to look into it. I've only have tried coco. Have not tried soil yet either. She's huge how's the underside looking? All those branches
1-1/2 month ago this was a dark heart nursery clone I bought from rcp in Sacramento I did e&f for about 3-1/2 years 2 years with coco in smart pots flooding from the bottom of the tub daily was always afraid of dwc but finally gave in this is my second round & is much improved than my last grow this to me is much easier to maintain single plant grows can rock & im on the learning curve as I go here is bottom pics & working my way up to the canopy I've found dirt to be considerable harder than hydro image.jpegimage.jpeg image.jpegimage.jpeg

hey stickman all of your input has been greatly appreciated & the results I'm getting are a direct result of your advice all I can say is thank you it's working my friends here keep me motivated
Thank you for your kind words, but I thank you more for sharing your work with us and you are learning me a thing or two, i was sloppy with checking my girls EC/CM/PPM, you are always on point with that, and your girls show it, they are absolutely perfect. You deserve a Blue Peter Badge, a Biscuit , a Beer and a Blow job from some Bird whos name begins with B.

My room is 4x4 my screen is 29x29 as I started this grow with a 400 hps I'm only running the one plant but my stand has the option of running 2 waterfarms side by side which I might do after I make a larger scrog for next grow
