I have never used that exact bulb. 20 years ago i did a grow from start to finish with Metal Halide. I found the buds were airy and fluffy not tight and dense. Hope that helps.

change the bulb.. Use red spectrum for flowering.. makes a dramatic difference on your return..

How to make stronger smell and flavour in DWC grows?Hi guys. Just harvested my second ever harvest, and 2nd time with DWC. Using HPS, then CMH for last 2 weeks
I'm really happy with buds, but the smell is a little less intense that I would like.
I have used Cannaboost, which is supposed to increase flavour but I want more! :)Setup. Lighting

LED Wattage confusion!?!?!?!?!In a few days, I will be putting these into a 4ftx4ft grow tent. Im a little concerned as my Lights say 1000w but on further research, it says actual wattage 140. does this mean I only have 280w and is that going to be enough?Week 3

Reverse flowering timecould I reverse the time when putting into bloom and switching from a 12/12 program? I could turn on at 00:00 and turn off the light at 12:00, because honestly I keep them on during the night and I turn them off at noon and I would like to do the opposite, can I?Other. Other

Efficient lightingKeeping both 200w VEG and 300w FLOWER lights 24h is too expensive for my alien wallet. So I left the veg light under 12h/12h and flower on.
Please share with me some of your past experiences and how can I save money and grow killer yields.
