@Foreigner Are you running the HLG FR spectrum or full spectrum ? All the HLG’s are awsome !!! I have several from FR to B spec amazing quality. Their reputation is solid but from personal experience they take care of their warranty work fast and usually end up with free upgrade. Cheers !!!
It’s an HLG100 v2 Bspec 4000k. Says full spectrum but that doesn’t really mean anything.
It’s my veg light but I have flowered under it.
It’s got a wicked hotspot though.
@Foreigner I have thought about flowering under my B spec for fun aswell. Did they stay short ? Years ago I did it under MH and HPS the ones directly under MH were taller more stretch. I want to run the same sort of test with FR and B spec for fun… Cheers !!!
I deliberately kept them short because it’s only 100 watts.
To avoid the hotspot for flowering I do four plants in the corners and nothing in the center.
I notice little difference between reasonable blue and reasonable red.
If gonna piece together, Migro on youtube is a pretty good resource. He does alot of equipment comparisons. Does legit tests, and seems to be unbiased. He might be a little biased on lights, because he sells them, but not that I could tell.
I am still working on putting it together. Slowly getting better equipment as the opportunities present themselves.
