Veg vs flower lighting??

Ok just making sure.. would I need to improve the square footage watt wise??

I have a 315 CMH, I’ve used it for veg, now
I’m in flower with it... Since it’s use to this wattage would I need more for flowering.. I know people use it all the way through.. but was wondering..

It’s maybe more economical to veg with my blurples.... then blast it with the 315...

1 plant under 3x3 in size? Yeah stick with the cmh. If anything add in your blurple if you need a little more coverage area.

I'm loving my cmh lights for both veg and flower.

They seemed to be doing fine.. I have 4200k... May go down to 3000k type...

Thanks, that's some of the Pura Vida nugs. I grew 6 types last time, and only took pics of the nugs of 2 kinds so far. I don't take pics much, but will take pics of the other kinds when I go to refill my jars if I remember. Here's a pic of a few nugs of the Green Crack.

Damn .. this is my first run with the 315.. I can’t lie I’m impressed with your trees... are those 315’s or 630’s... have you ever used the 4200k all the way through.. I’m going to go back through the 315 club thread to see if I can find some results. But those are most definitely saying SMOKE ME..

I've been using 2 315's with 3100k for the last 10 months. Veg and flower both have been impressive. That was my first real grow, besides when I did it 20 years ago, but without the same knowledge. I did 9 plants in there last time, and decided to keep it a little simpler this time, and have 2 in there now that are at 6 1/2 weeks into flowering.

Here's the work of my 315's. 2 in a 4'x4' space and a 4' 6 bulb T5 for side lighting.

Straight up frosty!!

I had to get into my Tahoe Alien, so I took a pic of it. Cured for 5 months.

Y’all growing some crazy crystals...@PadawanWarrior... how far you keep your lights away from your plants...I may be a tad too close

CMH lights take the credit for the crystals. I keep em about 19" away. 18-20" seems to be the sweet spot for me.
