Wtf why do my plants stress everytime I move them from veg room to flower room

one thing I did notice is that they are in smaller pots first. could the root temps be getting too warm when you first move them, and then when you repot, the root temps cool and the plants recover? just another theory..

also, completely off topic but how do you rate the led vs the hps?? I wanna switch to the new gavita leds but heard so many mixed reviews about leds lacking the quality
I'd rate the gavita LEDs above DE HPS. I'll never buy another HPS again actually, led all the way.

In a side by side grow, the leds have visually bigger nugs. I've grown Blue Glue for years and last round I grew the biggest top nug I've ever grown under the led. Damn thing was 2 liter size.

35% less electricity and way less heat makes them a no brainer imo.

What size harvest? Few oz? poind or 2? 15lbs?

Are you harvesting with your plants in the same room? Or are you harvesting then bringing your plants Into that room?

Around ten lbs usually give or take.. I harvest flower room hang plastic and section off a half of the room and bring my veg plants in to re populate.

Quality with the gavita led is just as good if not better. For sure better coloring. I have 3 leds with 6 DE hps and I run the leds in the middle like a sandwich, all the plants under the hps the leaves all bend toward then leds. Led leaves all face up while hps leaves reach for led.

I think all the cheap Chinese leds gave all leds a bad wrap. If you buy a quality lame brand led you wont turn back to led.

The gavita cost $1400, if it didnt perform no one would buy it. My hydro store cant keep up stocked they sell so fast. One week they said they sold 100 gavitas.

that's crazy! I was on the fence but very tempted to buy one for my next run. will be the same, in between two rows of hps
