Fast Buds FastBuds - Girl Scout Cookies

Yeah I would raise that light to 24 inches minimum
My only reference point was the vague as well as incomplete data that manufacture posted, also I wonder is the 600watt (290 actual draw) going to be enoughto get me through flower or am going to want to throw some T5 2700k in there too when that day comes. And the GSC is showing sex on some of her lower bud sites as of tonight :)
 
Yes where the 2 lights overlap in the middle it's better. Bump them to 24" if you can she needs to stretch, and run them on full power! 1 fan is probably enough for now they just need to slightest reflection of a breeze off a wall at this point. She will stretch just allow her to.
Ok going to go up to 24 RIGHT NOW brb :)
 
She's wanting to explode with growth but you've not allowed her to. Get her adjusted and she will start to climb.
 
1w, 3w, 5w, 10w different watt diodes means more intensity pretty much, I mean more light penetration and a bunch of other things, but 5w intensity @12" is far greater than say a 3w diode. This is why they need to be ran further from the plants which gives a nice spread and coverage too. Might not look like it covers well but I just pulled 810g wet from 180w draw LED. Avg 22% dry weight "they say rule of thumb" you can do the math. LED works and works extremely well.

Mine are 60@5watt for 300 watt total 145 watt actual draw, yep only thing factory said was that at 12 inches I got 520 par

she's got the structure for it, if I can get lights fialed in right she'll be gone like a rocket, love how them t5s keep em short and fat real good node spacing, only thing made me wanna try out the leds is some have said some of my indoor colas were airy at 1st I jus figured it was due to the strains, but then a buddy under 1 mars 300 watt grew out the same and his was way more dense than mines was
 
I don't think she like the LST
She was so bushy I tried just tucking that wasn't working she's got a ton of side branching but it was all so short I couldn't figure another way to open her up. I untied her, think she just wants be free to do her own thing.
 
Heres my latest pic, she seems to be quite happy, roots starting to come out the bottom of the root pouch!. Top dressed with a bit of calcified seaweed,alfalfa meal and a tadge of bat guano. Probably will water in some molasses later to get everything fed.
