The second plant pic was grown under regular mars Led 275W actual draw. The first a clone of the second plant grown out under Spectrum King 400+ Much more leaf and way less bud density.
It doesn't even look like the same strain!
But undaunted I need to make SK work, just to much invested.

Thanks for actually sharing Spectrum King growing BTW. Rather the the usual "oh those are shit, get QB's" common response on this site

What about the fertilizer and soil regimen? Exactly the same?
Hey One Hit!
Yes I keep my organic soil mix the same and use light amounts of Peters and Fertiloam bloom booster and magnesium sulfate as supplements that always he same.
And you are most welcome one hit.!

Spectrum king garden and Oaxacan Gold IBL I used about 1000 watts less of Spectrum king than I used last year with Mars Hydro And Stealth grow SG602s For almost same weight but Even with these the bud Density was just not quite there.

Thank you KB for good question
I wish I had a good answer for you, sorry!
i know there I heard a second generation 400+ coming or available??
People keep busting their balls like no other led company has made upgrades and changes to their product.
Just like the Closet Case and the Mothers Little Helper being upgraded to 140W. I would love to try 4 Closet Cases over a 5x5 :hump:

By Closet Case, do you mean the 140 watt LED that "replaces 400Watt HPS and 315CMH setups". Could you please explain how this sorcery works and also why you would drop $350 on it? And 4 of them? According to my maths, that $1400. Ummmm, what???

SK's site says this is suitable for flowering a 3x3. What the hell?

Hey man
All cool! He didn't say you had to buy them man.
It's his grow party.
I have to say, even though I think my SK 400 pluses need a bit of tweaking I had never flowered the volume I just did in a 9.5ft x 8ft with just under two thousand watts!
That's pretty much a feat in itself

He didn't, and I wouldn't. Those lights are overpriced af for what you get. He could pick up an HLG 550 for less than the cost of 4 of those things, or for the same money, get the big Vero beast from Timber.

I just don't get it when people make nonsensical decisions.

Can you explain why every thread turns into the same troll shitmess??
Why can people not talk about anything other than Quantum Boards or Growmau5 in peace?
If a thread get's started about an ApacheTech AT600 are you going to call that an over priced outdated POS too? I doubt it...funny how no one dare run their cob or QB lights side by side against one :lol:
Brother @wiccan is the grower that has the balls to come on this site and post pics of what he is growing with SK and discuss it in a creative fashion. Mega kudos to you bro :hump:

Kinda thinking just some high efficiency reds supplementing the SK400 would give the quality increase you are looking for. I know with the inda-gro induction lamps adding just the small wattage of red in the pontoon makes a huge difference in bud structure.
Something to look into

Looks nice but overpriced, however I fail to see the point in having 1 monolithic grow light, I went with cobs to spread the light equally, that fixture will benefit the plants all differently depending on positioning.

PURPLE SATELITE!
OAXACAN GOLD PURPLE LINE X NEPALI SATIVA
I definately do believe there is some merit to Spectrum King lights I also think at just under $800.00 ea That they are a descent deal for those not technically inclined, or simple have no desire to build their own its still a viable option, considering say a BLACKDOG comes in close to what over $2.500 that will cover the same space?
Picture below was first harvest from my 4 light 400+ room.
Now I still see here there can be improvements, primarily in the Flower to leaf ratio. Just what I am looking for. Can be remedied by simply spending a bit more for primarlily red spectrum supplementation.
By the way seeds available!
