I just finished plotting the current data as of yesterday. The fisrt 6 images are of the Solar Storm Full Cycle. The Growl LED data will be posted after this one. If anything doesn't make sense, let me know and I will expain in more detail.
Above each graph I have stated the slope ( first derivitive or rate of growth and the R^2 value). My next postings I will show the angle of the plant realitive to the quardents of the LED lights and compare the growth rate of the plants to distance away from the light.
**Note: I did not show data for the White Growl LED Light. The older plants started to grow faster then I anticipated and shadowed the plants for this study and inhibited their growth.
Hope you all enjoy!!

All plants under the solar storm were directly under the light, 2 plants per quadrant with the OG in between the 2 closest to the front, front being opposite of the veg/flower switch.
The Growl LED Blue light, if you look at the begining of the post, you will see a cord at one end of the panel (I've denoted that quadrant as A2, A1 is next to it and A3 is accross from it). I Mesured the distance from the center of the quadrant to the base of the light panel and figured out the angle from the center of the light quadrant the plant is, starting from the base ; Angle = tangent^-1(height/length)
SC-1 : H=41.5cm, L= 6cm; A= 81.8 BD-1: H= 17.5; L= 12; A= 55.6 BD-2&3: H= 17.5 L= 24; A= 36.1. BD-2 @ A3, BD-3 @ A4 BD-4: H= 41.5 L= 10; A= 76.5 BU-2: H= 17.5; L= 12; A= 55 Smaller the angle, smaller the hieght and slower the rate of growth. Larger the angle, larger the height and faster the rate of growth. I have noticed that the Solar Storm made the plants shorter and wider, didn't need to top the plants but they branced out on their own. The plants under the Growl LED blue light not nearly as bushy but greener and taller, larger leaves. I am not able to see how the solar storm fairs with the Growl LED lights for flowering due to time constrants.
I did place a plumeria and an olive plant near the solar storm. These two plants LOVED the solar storm, and the plumeria went into flowering. When I transfered the plumeria outside when day-time temps reacted the upper 70s mid 80s, 50% of the leaves fell off within 48 hours. New ones grow in rapidly and the plant continued to flower and bloom. Will upload images soon.
