Is it just me or??

I have a buddy uses them - at 18-24 inches on full power it will just melt your plants no matter what, you need to keep them badboys turned down low and lifted higher up, especially in a tent cause they reflect everything back so your 385 + scatter, you have to focus on DLI and timings more for them beasts than smaller units. I wouldnt do any leaf spraying with them lighting you up either, if you are.

I’m using a Scorpion Diablo. This is my first light so I can’t compare to anything else. However I was around 18 inches away from my plant for a few days at about 950 ppfd and I think it cooked my plant a little as I’m dealing with a yellow plant in week 5 of flower. I have an apogee MQ-500 par meter. I got it Aug 18th and I figured I was dialling in my light. I’m also having other noob issues so I can’t blame it all on the light I don’t think. For a first grow I think I’m having a certain level of success. Let me know how things work out. Is it possible that you had bad genetics? Maybe a parasite in your growing medium? You spent good money on a light which arguably is one of the best LED lights on the market. I don’t know man. Wish I had a better a week for ya man.

I'm using HLG Scorpion Diablo.. My main problem right now is the fan leaves wrinkling pretty bad there 14 days old my ppfd is 385.. I have even started over with a different strain and I still get the wrinkling of the leaves

You get what you pay for As always. I have decent grow with led only using HLG

Natural is always better than artificial ... Also led spectrum is the key, not all led have a good quality ...
