It still shouldn't have tested so much lower. I watched it and even GML was stunned by the results. Stressed plants don't make them lose that much potency. I'm not trying to bash quantums, I do have 8 boards running besides my Hps's and MH's but I cant have lower quality product, market demands highest quality in my parts or you sit on it and lose money.It was not a perfect run. Far from it and everyone who watched the show knows it.
I missed out on this. Care to clue in on the test and results?It still shouldn't have tested so much lower. I watched it and even GML was stunned by the results.

To me it's the massive fox tailing I got and many many here have. Maybe i need to tweak my style run the LEDs softer do this do that. I personally think it has to do with all the points of light and the photon war that is going on.@a mongo frog, can you elaborate on how the quality is down compared to hps?
Shit man I'm sorry I just reread my post it should have said wasnt a perfect run, I fixed it now.It was not a perfect run. Far from it and everyone who watched the show knows it.
Most likely, yes.Are you stupid?
LEDs are definitely moving on up there. The Fluence Spydrx is putting out numbers. Tons of commercial growers setting up their grows using only those. Whether or not HLG is to that point yet I dont know. It would be nice if they would do a lab to see their lights used to the maximum of their ability in a controlled manner by someone who can actually be 100% on every variable.Shit man I'm sorry I just reread my post it should have said wasnt a perfect run, I fixed it now.
What kind of air exchange and movement do you have? What’s your humidity when temps are high?To me it's the massive fox tailing I got and many many here have.

I could very well be wrong and being proven wrong is why kind of why some of us use this site.
Also i should of invested smaller and learned more about the lighting instead of just trying to replace the room of 3k hps with all led balls to the wall type shit.
Not doubting you or your skills, etc. Not calling you a bad grower. Just do me a favor and take the wheels off your goalposts.Most likely, yes.
I don't feel commercial large operations are worried about quality as much as making most money possible, look at dispensaries quality. Some of the buds GML shows are not good looking on both his LED and HPS grows just as most buds I see posted in these LED threads aren't nice looking to me either but I don't ever say much to keep the peace, I hate drama. I just want the highest quality end product for my people. Wattage doesn't matter, light source doesn't matter, how much money spent to get best product doesn't matter, what my people put in there pipe and how they feel about what there paying for is all that matters to me.LEDs are definitely moving on up there.

It was 2% lower. That is barely noticeable, if at anyIt still shouldn't have tested so much lower. I watched it and even GML was stunned by the results.

Are THC tests really that accurate? I´ve read more than once about same plants testing different in different labs, and different %s between buds of the same plant. But sure, it would be interesting to know what people coming from HPS and other think.It was 2% lower. That is barely noticeable, if at any
The humidity is probably the biggest factor in the potency loss. Everyone knows or at least should that you lower humidity at the end of flower will increase resin productivity..... I sure 80% humidity can have the opposite effect.It still shouldn't have tested so much lower. I watched it and even GML was stunned by the results.

I think GML said he and a few friends tried it, and they really liked the terps and flavor but the head change wasn't there, for either sample.Are THC tests really that accurate?

Let's hope this next run by GML test up where it use too. Have you had any other guys do side by side grows hps vs quantum with percentage test results? Im really pulling for quantums in general. I like the boards, customer service from you guys at hlg, and the breath of fresh air they have stirred up on the forums/IG/YouTube.The humidity is probably the biggest factor in the potency loss.

GML had both hps and quantum rooms tested that he grew at same time with hps beating qb by 2% by same lab.Are THC tests really that accurate?

Isn't that a 10% loss in potency on a 20% strain, I would notice it I think after smoking them side by side a few timesIt was 2% lower. That is barely noticeable, if at any
HPS contains 0.0% UVB and as far as red/far red the QBs have more.Interesting discussion, hopefully people who switched will keep chiming in. @Stephenj37826 do you UVB/far red/spectrum has something to do with this, or is it too early to know at least at an anecdotal level?
Thanks! I’m new to this veg growing. They were going great then looked like they were getting burned. I dimmed the driver down but still leaves not looking great.
