Hey man! Sweet stuff. btw - I am running about 700 PPFD with no issues thus far :) oh, and I also stunted one of mine with overwatering and putting it directly into Ocean Forest haha. They say WW is hardy, but she's seems a bit picky to me. AND I also an a bit nervous to LST due to her being so short and bushy...she's in a 5gal and not THAT tall, so the angle will be difficult to pull her over...the tie will be pretty much horizontal. if prefer her taller so the tie is at a 45 degree angle, pulling her down - if that makes sense. I see you have the same issue - you could only pull over her top to expose 1 additional stem.

@Ghostguy1337, correct. Larger light, more area coverage although our readings just under the light would be closer to same readings. And these lights are fairly new to the industry so who knows?? Lol

@medicalguy09, yeah I saw you had the SP 3000 (super nice light - I am getting it for my next grow) - The PPFD didn't make sense initially - how are you getting less PPFD when we are both at the same height and close to power %? However, the SP 3000 gives a super nice even light distribution.. mine is directed to a smaller area...that may explain it

@Ghostguy1337, I also noticed you're using a 150W light and mine is 300W so there may be a slight difference for us in hanging height although all other variables are pretty similar. I'm at 22/23 inches depending on the plant with 75% power and havn't seen any light burn yet but I will be watching closely. The light manufacturer sent me an email and said for veg, it's best between 18-24" @ 70-100% which doesn't really help because that's such a broad range lol. Like, thanks? I've got 5 plants so I'm leaning on the conservative side...
