I am reallllly hoping for a LB.

4x4. from the net pot to the top of the canopy is only 2 feet tall :cool:. The lights about 16 inches above the canopy and I could raise it maybe another 18-24 inches higher if I needed. And thank you.

That's one fine looking grow. I am personally a fan of 18 inches from canopy with a 600, it seems to get the right canopy temp/intensity for the best density, it's not about size ^^. This I think is mostly down to the upper leaves not getting too hot or over worked. 2x315's or 400's at about 16-18 inches would be the next step up. Double lights over a 1000 will distribute the heat and light intensity spots better. If you watch your leaves directly under the 600 now you may start to see them fade and look tired toward the end, the 1000 will do that but over a greater area. This damage imo is where some small rot issues can arise in an other wise ok environment.

The only slight negative I can really see and only potentially. The leaves look a little bit off, I don't know why but they don't look quite right. It may be due to the hps spectrum used in veg and/or the combination of scrog. Or if I recall correct they can get that thin look due to too much K, or was it not enough.. can't remember. Possibly a little too much N or maybe it's just the strain. Well, hopefully it's just my lack of knowledge but have a little dig into it just in case. It's obviously not a huge problem if so.

Not to be negative as they look great.. just always good to check what you can improve.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm not sure what I'll do as far as a different setup next time... part of me would like to use this 600 as a veg light and get a new 1000 for this "flower tent", but we'll see.

As far as the leaves, I must not be seeing what you're seeing. My last two grows I had some nutrient issues causing some leaf issues but these look 10/10 compared to those. If there is a problem, it's not enough for me to notice it yet so I'm just gonna keep keeping on how I have been. Thank you for the comment!

hey and dont get in a hurry to harvest those if the seeds stats say 50 to 60 days always let them go a week longer sometimes even 10 days your buds will swell so huge that extra week they will start to foxtail, trust me on that you wont regret it.
