The Most Legendary, Epic, and Exalted...etc, etc, etc: Hlg 288 vs 96 Smackdown Grow ;)

My thread, i win...

 

Couple more:

 

Musta been reefer-ing to your backyard...

 

Some guy showed up with his ganja jukebox, and threw the glove down...

Had to

 

Just gotta say

 

Glad it wasn’t a liquor jukebox, woulda had to pull out Jimmy...and the coral....

 

Day 41 from cloner: New 8 mains/plant now on their 3rd node, enough mature leafage to support removal of the last two fans on the previous 4 mains.

Here’s what they looked like before leaf removal:


After:


Take a look at the plumbing system on these:.




This is how, if you keep controllable variables in range, you get yuge yields...

 

Sounds like you currently have 2x288 v2s, (i’ll assume they’re 3000K), and you want to know whether to replace them with 96e s or supplement them with 18/35s.

Also sounds like you like the 288s for your grow style.

I’d keep them, add an 18/35, and consider co2, rather than get the 96s....

you can always add 96’s in the future, but to get equiv of above you’d also have add a far red puck or two...

 

The 18/35 running full lights on w the 288s will give you the “emerson effect”. M

if you also want the “initiator effect”, you would have to run far red ALONE for first 5-15 mins of lights out. Because they have to run ALONE, it would mean that you would need to buy additional far red.

I think you prabably get a much bigger yield bump w emerson and co2, than emerson and initiator, but this is just my percrotion based on 1 grow - i have not tested it or know if any scientific study that has.

My last grow i did all three. Look up my 48sams grow.
