Hey guys so going into week 3 of my grow and got some concern with my old bulb. I know i need to replace my 3 grow old 600w HPS bulb but is it causing my tight node on my babies?
My last grow i was a 2 grow old 400w HPS and thought i had ruled lamp height out as I purchased a new one and didnt see a jump. so figured it was 2 unique phenos.
Well with my current grow underway im seeing simliar results with my old 600w bulb (purchased this setup for a steal).The lamp has been between 23-35in from the tops. attached is current grow pics at day 16 with some testers from S_A_H.
in my sig their should be a link to my last grow "another fun run" where my plants didnt finish taller than 20in.
I was under the impression tight node spacing (ruling out genetics) was a result of more intense light not an inefficient old bulb.
Thanks in advance for any input its all greatly appreciated. might give me a push to replace my old bulb sooner than later, plan is to switch right before or after the switch to 12/12.
