Ahhhh, pics are now within the thread... much better amigo! So are you gonna try the Liquid Light with the LEDs? That would be a LLLED thread? (Not to be confused with Opie's LSTTT thread...)

I'll be lurkin' here and chime in if I have anything useful to contribute...

That's what I would have done. You can get 400w hid's a ft away if you control the heat. Because you reduced the distance about 30% you probably doubled the light intensity on the tops. Any closer and you'd probably start losing intensity at the corners. Thanks for sharing your grow experience.

ty pepper....i used an off white piece of foam to gauge how close i could get without the light seperating. 12in was about it. so i went from 24 to like 14. seem to be growing good, ill take a few more out of there for pics this sun. i dont know if its my eyes after being in there, but they look almost flourecent when taken out. definitely differant appearance than HIDs. but like i said, your eyes are fucked when you leave the room, everything has a green glow, like a green flashlight in a dark room. green haze....ironic?....lol

Hi SnStealth. As far as I understood you are growing with two procyon 100w kit.
How many plants are under procyons, how old are they? Show some up to date photos and prepare to listen to the rasta critics

Hey cture,

We're using 3 Procyon 100's 2'x8' mylar sealed room. There are six 3 gallon pots below each light, 23 total plants (15 in pots 0n the 22nd, other 6 on the 25th) some of which are double potted. Photos on post 50 are from Sunday, I think once a week quite enough at this stage at least. using all Fox farm soils & nutes, plants are a little off due to never using a "rapid rooter" panel before so they went to pots a little early. Otherwise they're running strong. from what I've seen from yesterdays feeding Sundays pics should be nice!!!

Hope that helps in your attacks...lol

Glad to hear you man. Honestly speaking with this light you will be able to bring up 6 plants, even then you will yield no more ythan 50-100 grams . What we could do about it?
I heard you are goin to build your own ficture so it could be a great supplemental light to your procyons(imho they a are lols) you need to add up 420nm and 700nm diodes for the first period of time! Adding 420nm diode you will decrease internodal stretch, adding 700nm diode will create an Emmerson effect with 640s from proc. PM me

Thanks for the input but both for financial and for experimental reasons this grow will have only the three Procyons (not sure if we posted about addl. lights but i could be wrong, there are two of us here).

As far as inter nodal stretching is concerned, with 5-leafs sprouting average is about 1/8" to 3/16" between lower branches. And the testing that we've seen with THIS LIGHT do not seem to have any problem with that. this grow had some over watering/no instructions issues as stated w/ the rapid rooter that caused the cotyledons to stretch because they were planted early(I know I know dixie cups from now on).

we'll all find out in a short 3 months

yeah.. in the case of LED grows it's going to be quality over quantity or i'd feel like I was wasting the money for no reason

Well I have to say that it would REALLY help if you had photos that weren't pink so people could get a nice idea of the plants and see if there really is a difference in growth for one thing. It's hard to be supportive without really being able to see whats going on for themselves and see that there really is some sort of improved growth or not.

You also have to realize that while you may think it's a terrific idea to spend $1800 on lighting not EVERYONE is going to feel that way or be that excited about it for one simple reason. Most people can't afford that kind of money in one go and so won't be investing in that lighting anytime soon so don't really need minute (and pink) information on it (past hearing the price) unless these lights create solid gold buds or something.

Finally.....realize that not everyone grows or WANTS to grow the same way.....or even just one way. I personally don't like plants with really short internodes....its a darn hassle to get light to them evenly and I like big yields.

Stealth...you DO realize that you will NOT be recognized for your achievements until after you are dead. This is the price of genius....and I speak from personal experience.
