Crop Steering with light spectrum!

So I have a bunch of these old 600 watt phlizon cob LEDs. I wasn’t getting the stretch that I wanted and so I decided to try just running the red light switch bulb before lights out to encourage stretch. I got the idea from Dr. Bugbee because he mentioned in a podcast that UV and far reds will encourage stretch.

I think it worked because look how lanky this gal is.

I was trying to get this one to stretch because the internodal spacing was too close for my liking. This gal might just be a real winner. She started flowering faster than I’ve ever seen a photo showing stigmas from like day one of flip. The terpene profiles a little sweet and sour barely a citrus reminds me a lot of Mexican weed from back in the '90s.

I was happy to find out that Philizon is making their newest lights also with spectrum control! If anyone in the forum owns this light I’d love to see them experiment also with the UV/Bloom dials to see if they get the same extra stretch that I saw.
