I couldn't agree more; long been a point of contention in my replies to others. My apologies for including the UFO pic and will try pulling this pair into more natural light in the future.

Things are much more camera friendly under my other lighting; the pair of no name natural light panels on my starter shelves cost about $20 each and work ideally for the task. With my routine they go from a solo cup size after about two weeks to these 1/2 gal and can work comfortably with LST up to six or eight weeks then they bump to 2 gal (as pictured in the earlier blurple shot).

I'm going to have to seriously increase my rate of consumption to dull the psychological torture of current events; there's supposed to be a rainbow after every storm but how do you enjoy a rainbow when you've gouged out your eyes?

As the final guard of my back up band these in 1/2 gal have another few weeks on the back burner and the sure fire way to forestall outgrowing the confines of my starter shelves is culling a fresh batch of clones. My batch from the Lazy Eyed Susan will be generated at the end of the month to begin the experiment on the potential of misshapen mutants.

Finally have the blended schedule operational; 200 watts from the TS600s begin the day (running 4 hours) at 6 PM, at 7 the Growstar 150's on the shelves kick in (running 10 hours, then at 10 the main system kicks in as the TS600s shut down (running the last 8 hours of the 12 cycle). This is a work in progress and when the next pair downstairs are ready to be pulled, the two from the shelves will take their place and another pair will come in from the veg cabinet in the other room. That fresh set will have until the end of August before they drift downstairs by which time the cuts taken at the start of this month will have had roughly two months on 18/6 and should be ready to replace the pair on the shelves who graduated. A penciled in schematic for the system will have clones taken at the first of every month which will have two months in veg which will keep the train rolling from this point forward. Provided things progress as they have for the past year, this will have a pair harvested at the end of each month with a yield of 3 to 5 oz a piece totaling between 4.5 to 7.5 lb for the year.

On deck circle just got upgraded to 2 gal with at least until the end of the month left in veg

Main floor runs 200 watts for the first four hours and then switches to 600 watts for the eight hour shift.

Seamless transition for the pair in the middle; been under the single UFO since the first and already in flower creating the late Sept harvest with another pair still in veg ready to move to the shelves when I pull down the two in the foreground at the end of this month.
