Thanks beefxer! I'm really happy with where they are at this point. Really happy with the grow so far and how the solarstorm400 is performing. I'll be following your journal with interest too.

Nice stuff here. How much of a difference in heat between veg and bloom mode?

I have not noticed any difference in heat between the two modes. Even with the uvb on. If I remember correctly, they each use about the same amt of energy - could be wrong there tho.

I remember reading somewhere that the veg mode uses less power. I think it just turns off some of the red LEDs so that the red/blue ratio shifts toward the blue.

Mmm looking tasty there azores! About half way to harvest now?

Those are some seriously bright purple stems. I wonder if that has anything to do with the LEDs. May I ask what your night time temperatures are?

Three more weeks maybe four. The auto will finish soon so I'll need to extract her from the screen. I foresee that being a big pain in the ass. Night temps here mid seventies at the lowest...
