There's been a few members do this and have good results.
I think I remember one guy doing a whole 5x5 .

Looks like you might have a bit of Ntox though.
What they feeding on?

you say it couse the claws? those where not getting light

i got a little bit of n lock up in one of them right now but nothing severe
i feed them ghe pro bloom
i started with biobizz light mix and bio grow
i was feeding them 1.5 l and bio grow + pro bloom at 1ml per liter each

i added more biogrow to the one in the left thinking it was a n deficiency
turns up is a n lock up
well no upper leaves were affected and its coming back after 1.7l of only pro bloom (2 3 4) at 1.5ml l

bless

btw they only drink spring water, unfiltered + nutes no ph measuring no nothing

yeah lets see it, i was gonna purchase a qb similar to yours, but i liked so much the veg that i sticked to led bulbs, i see many people dont like it, but im fully not convinced that a 100 w board would do better than 100 watts of my bulbs,
my line of thoughts;
the bulbs have 20 leds, they are 14w therefore driving each led at 0.7w
on other hand a qb has 260 leds and 100w therefore driving each chip at 0.4w
if i put 13 bulbs i have 260 leds and 182w
see where im going?

what im saying is that i dont care if i pay 82w more if i get double the intensity / penetration per chip

the full spectrum in those 100w qb is 5 red leds 3 ir leds and 2 uv leds.. smh

so if i want to build something with greater penetration i just have to arrange my bulbs with the chips sitting close in the same fashion as a qb or a bar light but i have more watts per chip, ok im loosing efficiency doing so, because leds are more efficient if you underpower them , but i think i would have more penetration having the same count and distribution of smd leds
by the way these bulbs use the same format smd led as any qb or grow bar light (2835)
