Why do you like that one more? You're saying you don't think the diamond is all that great? Or just the build quality?

Build quality primarily the cheaper one is easier to access. I'll be switching the tents and adding a light for the next run so I'll never notice the losses in reflectivity.

Switching the tents? Are they both 4x4? You mean you'll use veg tent for flower and vice versa?

Do you think or can you tell that there is a better reflective evenness with the diamond compared to the "hammered" style?

I'm switching the lighting so all the veg stuff will be in the smaller tent. Personally no I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. But I also built my light around the idea of having it producing the maximum PPFD for a 2x2.5 footprint. So the reflectivity to me is kind of moot.

Hm. Isn't the veg stuff already in the small tent? Because it's your veg tent? You cxb's are in the new g leaf 3x3 along with whatever that other light is. So I'm still lost... lol.

Hahaha yeah dude I'll clear it up. I started with the 2x2.5 then I had to move all my shit to a different house. Then I bought the 3x3 and a t5 for vegging. I kept my already growing plants in the 2x2.5 because my LED is providing better coverage in there. When I build my other light in June the 3x3 will become the flower tent. Hope that gets you back on track!
