I really liked my HPS before I discovered LED. The parabola is nice and something I didn't have with mine.

I doubt the GH nutrients were the issue though but super excited to see how this turns out.

Are these autos? Looks like you have potential to spread those canopies out much more.

if density is your goal, and hps a necessity, thouies are the way to go.

Hated the cost, but holy hell you could use a nug as wrist rocket ammo. That stuff sold itself.

What's your temps like? Under hps you need to stay under 75 to keep things tight. When the temp climbs, the flower opens to aid transpiration. When I was under hps I'd drop the temps to 72 lights on for the last 3 weeks.

I had huge issues using GH my PPMs where out of control I’d leach the pots every week with four gal of fresh water and still fight to keep my salt build up down it was allot of Maintenance Measuring nutrients for feedings I love the just water when dry with a ph balance water what I keep it a Rez that lasts a week at a time and iv been trying to switch to led but I need the heat from the hps atm to keep my gals warm

That could have been many issues.

Glad you found a method that is comfortable for you though. I grew with GH trio for a few runs with success, tried Botanicare, and eventually settled on Mega Crop. I'm strictly in hydro though so YMMV.

Do you have a journal going? I'd like to watch

No I haven’t really figured out how that would work I just joined this group last week
