Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
Grow was pretty straight forward. I had two plants in ProMix HP and two in Cyco CocoPearl. The Cyco plants both sucked the big one. They were small and slow growers through whole grow. Didnt produce anything special at all and hurt my overall yield big time. The plants liked the added light this grow, Made for bigger, denser buds. I am done my experiments with nutes and mediums for abit, im switching to the Gaia Green dry amendments and organic worm castings from now on going forward, and using Proterra as my medium since ProMix HP was sold out locally in my area. My 2 other grows are doing well so far and much easier then growing with the Flora trio in my opinion. Im still not overly impressed with the density these amazon leds make. For 600w at the wall im still sub 0.5g/W. So im gonna use these for veg and get a hps for flower and see what happens. I only took off the fan leaves and any sugars that had no crystal and hung the whole plant. Overall very suprised in the end yield, I only expected 4oz or so and got just over 9 oz 🤙

Nutrients
Basic setup and straight forward. I found a formula online that was a better fit, these producers recommend way too much nutes on the bottle. They make money by selling more product so be aware. I wasnt feeding with water every 3rd feed and that caused a lockout in early flower for Ca and N. So wont make that mistake again.
Lights
if you could get the lights down to the canopy without sacrificing the outer 8-12inches of grow space they would be fine. I have a "2000w" and a "1200w" in the tent drawing an actual 618w and still cant lower lights enough in a 4x4 without sacrificing coverage. Ill only be using these lights for veg from now on. They are plenty for that.
Tents
Cant complain at all. Good quality at the right price

overall the grow taught me alot and suprised the hell out of me in the end yield department. But not happy with the g/watt im getting with these lights having to be too high off the canopy to get good par to the buds. Will be switching to a HPS for flower and see how that goes. Will also lollipop right up to 3-4 nodes maximum post stretch from now on.
