Quick question to anyone that wants to answer...
What space are you usually covering with a 600w HPS with no light mover, just a stationary hood???
I will be growing SOG eventually after my test grow. I just wanted to get a feel for the space I will need...
Any info will help.
Oh, and do you have to grow hyrdoponically to be in the 600 Watt Club?

50 watts per sq.ft. so 4x3 or 3 1/2 x 3 1/2...or any other configuration you can come up for twelve square feet...math is off i dont care twelve is rite

Hey grinchy...thts they same tray im gettng to replace the libra trays with.... how sturdy is it.... Im getting the 102 X 106 cm version.....
Well my 600 puts out shedloads more than the 400 used to... and without so much heat as a thou....
Im gonna be sticking with 600's as rule in future...great lights..200% the light of a 400 with only 150% the input power its obvious isnt it.... Im definately going to work on this damned reflector. A bit of heatproof silicone should do the trick.
i think 8-10 inches is the best height above the tops with an aircooled fixture...

althought this grow of mine started with 2 x 400s, its now just one 600HPS, and will remain this way the rest of the way....

Tuning in and dropping out - this is my entry ticket:
Swt #3 1 week 12/12. This is my first 600W grow and I think I still need to learn a little about how established clones should be before blooming. My flower area might be pretty large for a 600W - 120X140 cm. I'll see how that turns out - perhaps make an arena arrangement or something. It's already very bowl shaped because of the 5 large plants. Now I just need the other sides too.

Nice stuff inside here =). I'm running a 600 over a 4x4 flood table with 4 plants. I'll get pics in a couple days when I update the thread I have going. :rasta:

This pic is from last week. I'm waiting to get my camera back so I can get new ones for this week.

now that im in the club i want a 600watt club avatar, anyone got one?

heres my first grow.
600watt sylvania bulb (air cooled), 2' x 5' room, scrog, GH nutes, magic trays (shallow water culture) three plants: bc big bud, pot o gold and purple cush.

currently day 21 of flower.





i could use a little help at this point.
how much do i prune right now? seems like there are too many leaves, and their blocking light for other possible buds.

heres the canopy.





and a close up.



i recently removed a lot of fan leaves, revealing all sort of hidden flowers. how do i know when ive pruned enough, and its time to leave em alone?
if a fan leaf is blocking light should it be removed? (and for how long-meaning all the way to harvest?)

anyone had any luck with a light mover?
