Weekend update, bit of an Icarus situation here.
View attachment 18769428
I may have to remove the driver to let the buds through at this rate. What's surprising me is that there are no signs of burning on the upper leaves. Yet.

From what i experiment myself , when they are well fed with nutes and cal mag , they didn' t burn at 5cm of the leds .

Same here my buds have been very close to the light with no damage
Plants are looking excellent GMT

Thanks guys, just one of the many colas are getting heat trimmed at the mo, the very top is frazzled on the back left cola. It's probably soaking up all u.v. from one diode or something. I bent it into the corner of the tent for a bit more distance.

Lights off, truer colours, but the photos don't come out as nice.

Lights on, how are the lower buds on those colas?

Coming along.

Weekend update, half way point now. Just gave her 8 litres of water, she was thirstier than I thought.

I'll get some flash shots when the phone is charged enough for the flash to work.

Excellent looking plants

 

[GMT]

Thanks man, just one plant though. My attempt at keeping plant numbers down and harvest numbers up. Being honest it's too big for the tent.

@GMT Everything is happy and healthy. What more could one ask for..Awesome harvest soon come.

 

[GMT]

A hand trimming? A speedier grow time? But yeah, I won't grumble.

Getting there

 

[gizmo666]

She's a beast mate..
Looking to move up the wattage from 3 to 5 next year as I'm maxed out on the gpw at the mo.

The Attis 3 served me well after the Micro cob set up. Going to an Array 8 from Migro..

 

[GMT]

What are your watts per square foot and your top gpw numbers?

 

[GMT]

Everything here is either slumping, or full on keeled over. I still suspect I'll be below 1 g pw.

Sorry about the orange, cam app needs updating.

 

[Mars Hydro Led]

i suppose the GPW will be more than 1.5 this round.

 

[GMT]

I doubt it. I think to get that I'd need to have this light in a bigger tent, maybe 3*3. You can't just add watts to the same area and get ever increasing yields, you need more space at some point. The gpw figures tend to increase as the watts per square foot fall, but the quality also falls, giving airy buds. It's all a balancing act, better buds, lower gpw. I think I'll be around 0.9 gpw in that tent, maybe a little higher in the 2*4 with 60% more floor space for the same watts.

Using a 300w in 1.2 m room but keep the plants to the 1m so room for my fat ass to poke me head in and air flow..
I've hit the 1.5gpw with scrog NFT single plant and with SOG too plants...
