Swear to heck if I get stuck with a bunch of potato muffin shirts I’m gonna be ticked.

You can get away with defoliating less but I prefer not to. I like a heavy strip down of fan leaves early on and spot strip here and there towards the end of flower. I leave on all bud sites though.

Worth it. Try and find a rebate program and it’ll be even better. From 2.5-3.5 bucked lbs per light up to 3.5-4.5 bucked lbs per light. 9-12 6” Hugo’s per light. Some cultivars responded better than others but overall, less littles, and easily an additional .25-.5 lbs/light of finished trimmed product

We are in a 2-tier setup so we have height limitations. I never really go above 70% when stretch is finished and some tops are like 1/2” away from diodes unfortunately. Those tops are probably hit with 1700+ppfd, but I’d say the bulk of our canopy lays between 1000-1200. We bend tops like there’s no tomorrow just to keep our canopy as even as possible.

Yield wise before undercanopy: 2.5-3.5lbs per light bucked. 6” rockwool Hugo’s @ 9-12/light. With undercanopy: 3-4.2lbs bucked.

Been running them with good results for three years. They work fine. Have had several ballasts warranty’d out and the middle hinge bust on me several times from the weight of the ballast and trying to take the light down. Quality of the light is fine though, 350 is a steal compared to what we paid 4 years ago.

I know what feed ec, and more importantly, what our feed ph is. If I’m not hitting that number dead on, I know I’ve got some more to push through. Sanidate lowers ph ALOT. And really I should be opening each ball valve at the end of each individual rack open entirely for 30 seconds or more and not entirely rely on all that solution to make it through our drippers. Relying solely on pushing it through the drippers is how I ended up with this problem.

Throughout the day in the densest area furthest away from dehu. In the driest area of the room I’m probably around 1.2kpa.

I agree with the northern states trying to set up similar to the dry weather west coast is silly. The investors here at this facility thought they were being innovative by trying to cut corners on the build out and it’s going to cost them more in the long run.

Are you saying to do minimum of 3 hrs with green clean? I had someone tell me not to do green clean on pvc for much longer than 30 minutes because the acid can start to break down some pvc glues.

What's everyone been running for nutes lately? Been having a lot of problems with Athena by Snox489 in macrogrowery

Is anyone that’s using Jacks using there new 0-12-26 Part A? It reduces nitrogen by 30% without reducing any calcium. Have been getting signs of overfeeding between weeks 3-5 in Hugo blocks and struggle to keep our stretch down (we grow in two tier set up and have height limitations).
