Mephisto Genetics Low f**ks given Artisanal Test grow by Mephisto + Artisanal seed run!

Funny you mention this... I'm switching to HPS... LEDs wear out too and in my experience, require more resources over the long haul... IMO...

Hey mate, it's very rare that we grow for straight up flowers, or if we do it's often using breeding rejects or a quick trial of something.

So these plants here had the transplant, we've got the same room growing again just with the 3bog but this time they've been in 15 liters from the off, so we'll have to see how that compares.

Just trying to see if we can get both a nice yield and nice quality from our gear but with a very hands-off approach

Regarding lighting maybe we could convert a two light tent into led only, but for us to replace a facilities worth of equipment at once for no real reason, far too much $$$ and also a big risk if we don't get the same results.

Cheers!

Someone pointed me to these. Priced on the high side but not too bad(under €2.5/watt) from what I see looks to be around 48% eff at the wall. 55w for ~121uuuuuumols

DIY runs around 1€/w at this efficiency point. (ROI becomes ~5000hours with DIY ) 300-350w is what I'd aim for at 50% efficiency to replace 600's.

I'm aiming at SOG with 2oz/plant using my low maintenance style... Still trying... 1.5 and counting...

Hey dude for us, if we were at 2oz per plant, 9 plants per 600w we'd be at 504g per 600w light
To me that would be a very nice yield for the low effort level.

9 are super easy to feed and manage, I know we could hit well over 1g/watt with increased numbers, 25 per 600 is do-able just takes more maintenance

But as we're getting older, for sure laziness is taking precedent (in flower production only!)

Right now I'm doing ten under 2 400w hps... Waiting for data... They are loving the lights that's for sure... Lots of leaners towards the edge... Lol...

Thanks for sharing... Nice sanity check for me...

Shoot me a photo of the reflector and fixture... I'm about to make another procurement and might try this configuration on a few runs...
