Gonna follow along with this, I am growing in a small tent with the same light! I got the light at the end of my first grow, going to use it for the entirety of my next run. Excited to see how it will perform. How are you liking it?

Also, that plant looks like a monster!

Welcome along! This clone looks bigger in pictures than it actually is, but I'm sure it will produce more than in other runs.

I really like this light... do notice I have only used it dimmed to 60 Watts (from its 120Watt max power), and this way I've been satisfied with the results but I guess I have particular needs that others might not have (i don't consume much, and i live in a very humid place so I try to avoid big dense buds, and electricity if freaking expensive here). I have friends with similar lights but with more Red in their spectrum and no UV or not as much Blue, and their buds are just as big as mine (using the same clones, nutrients and medium) but do lack a bit of the flavor and potency mine have. I would prefer to have switchable spectrum like the new models have, but other than that, can't really complain. And well, the brand has top notch customer service. When my dimmer stopped working, they very quickly sent two replacements free of charge. i would imagine you'll be happpy with your results. if you have a journal going on, please tag me!

Awesome! I got the newest Series 3+ full spec 130 watt, which I guess is different than yours then. I ran it at full strength at the end of my first run, and things seemed to go OK. Ill experiment a bit on my next grow, good to know that you can still get good results running it at 50% though. I am actually going to start my grow sometime next week, and I will start my first journal here as well, I'll be sure to tag you!

Day 41 of 12/12.

Root rot is looking to creep up on this plant again. Noticed more burnt tips and EC in the tray spiking but felt it wasn't because of overfertilizng (water has been still at 1.2 EC with 1.0 being just from MC, rest is tap). Did a hand watering today and confirmed rot since runoff was hella stinky again... So I'll be switching one more time into hand watering for a week... not sure how she will fare since I can only really hand water once a day... but I'm sure I will have to find a way to squeeze a second watering to keep her well.
Light is about 6 inches from the tallest top which is getting about 900 to 950 PAR for a DLI there of about 38-41. Might have to back it up a little while I hand water the plant this coming week.

Here are some pics from today:

They look so lush. That Apogee paying for itself?

Sorry to read you've got another spell of the dreaded root rot, what would you say is the reason it's happening?

She looks beautiful and doing an excellent job as always bro

Which apogee meter did you invest in (model number).

Thanks! Oh yes it is... and I actually rented it a few times already and have recovered half its price!

Thanks for the nice comments ! I bought the SQ520. And the root rot I'm almost sure is happening because of my water source (tap) plus the organics in the MC and the way the water sits in the Autopot system. Will be investing in a RO filter soon so I hope that solves the problem, if not I'll try with airdomes/airpumps in the pot.

Day 49 of 12/12 today. Past week was tough on her, just one hand watering most days... managed to squeeze a second one a couple o days. I usually harvest this genetic at day 57, so i should be harvesting this plant next weekend.

Here are some pics from yesterday (lights on) and from today (lights off):
