Setup my new tent with my spare panel, going to start some new seeds this week. Fits perfectly into the small 120x70x165 tent. The flowering this round obviously is not neat and looks untidy, the next grow will have a bit of more uniformity to it. Flowering going on nicely:

Hi I currently have a plant 12/12 and she's already started to flower, my problem is the loadshedding in my area. do you think the 2 hours of darkness during loadshedding will stress her or cause her to reveg?

any time, have just spent a few weeks with it in varying stages of repair and upgrade on my desk. regarding coverage, that's where the lense angle comes in , the 120 lense would give me a wider but less powerful grow area. i treat(and view) mine as i would a 250w hps, keep it roughly 40cm away from canopy, currently in a 1x1m tent. happiness wise, its a mixed bag. i experienced very short plants, cal mag defs and stunted growth that said i had a mindless obsession with Autos that may well also have been partially to blame for overly touchy plants and low yields. i foolishly opted to add 730nm infra red to the spectrum trying to boost photosynthesis without properly understanding the emerson effect and i think i did yield a lot of damage. those have been removed and replaced with blues, the warm whites i chose have also been binned for daylight 6500k diodes. so time will tell Pics of spectrum changes attached Top 4 updated bottom 4 old spectrum the panel will now serve as veg light (attached pic) and potentially late flower spectrum booster if i get power hungry enough. looking at your plants the cheese seem to be perfectly happy under the leds, with the younger plants they look to be staying quite squat, something i noticed with my apollo

i ordered mine direct from cidly in china a few years ago, they make(made) up the panel to your spec, spectrum, lense etc. standard is 90 and i insisted on 120's for more spread, not sure if it was the right call. spectrum wise , i lost one 660nm red led on one spot , so had to open up to replace, so updated spectrum while i was at it. there was a big fluff job done on wattage of leds initially with the HID equivalence claims, hence i ask actual draw. the 8 spots use "3w" diodes, 15 per pod, 8 pods, max power if all diodes are driven at full 3w(700ma) is 360w. however the 3w monacre only actually indicates its max ma rating being 700ma, that doest mean they are running at full tilt. as i remember it the 360w were overrated, and the newer panels were rated at 260w or similar, but could be wrong, as my panel is easily 5 years old if not more

What now.. another Tie... cant both of us get a prize.

Indeed the only way for it to be 100% fair would be for everyone to use a cutting of the same plant but I think we can all agree that'll be just about impossible. So we do have the this option.... @Totemic has very generously offered to sponsor his chocolope genetics for this competition. A pack of 5 reg seeds for up to 200 participants. 1000 seeds in total Would you guys be okay with covering the delivery cost of your 5 pack?

Reveged and growing for the season. Sorry for the crappy back ground but I'm still hiding her in plain sight until all it well..... I reveged her indoor until about 3 weeks ago.
