fce 4800 and fc4800 side by side...or...unclefishstick's 9600 problems

[unclefishstick]

oh yeah,the last harvest was 1027 grams,a bit off of a gram per watt but that was entirely due to the cookies and mac1,the rest of the plants did very well

thanks... $$$ is not a factor... i am using 2x315 cmh, n the edges cerainly is a weak spot for me in my 4x3.5ft tent ... maybe ms mars will chime in with what they have coming up in 22- thanks

After debating the fc vs fce also in 4800 I decided on the fce4800. Money was also not an issue. It fits perfect in a 3x3 and its barely dialed down maybe 85-90% on. So far I am liking it and satisfied with the decision. I also went with the 4800 so I'd have very high output for the 3x but also able to use it in my 4x4 which is currently too tall for the spot. I like the mars alot more than the knockoff HLG quantum board I have in veg 250w with samsung lmh301b's and 660's its in a 3x2 space and you can tell its got hot spots directly below the qb's. The mars bars are putting out fairly even growth aside from one plant which is just a stretchy girl. Pics in my media under the vault folder but the new ones are way at the back of the files.

Hey Unc, running the LED's are you feeding regular strength like with HID's? I have seen some guys saying they are going all the way up to 3.0ec which seems like it would burn the crap out of them. I am in coco and canna coco line everything but pk13/14. Started out at 1.2ec everything looked really good after I added 1ml/gal magnesium sulfate. Then I up'd it to the higher end of the a and b strength which gives me 1.6 and a few started to get tipsy just a bit yellow so I backed down. I just dont see how or why I'd need to go to 3.0....Know you are pretty familiar with LED's at this point so just wanted to ask. Cheers!

i feed much harder under leds...added epsom,50% bump in nutes in veg,but about the same in flower...i don't use meters so i have no idea what the ec or ppms are
