I wouldnāt know about the high from Lemon Tree. This is my second attempt and second one that hermied.

I grew two. First one was amazing, lemon pledge, good high - second was more bland, no lemon. Still a decent buzz but not 'the' pheno.

Just 200W? I shower under 200W.

I dunno why but I believe him yo... Printer is trying to sell a car online(pretty sure it's him) & the 3rd button from the top on the far right of the dash is for a 200W dome light to pop on in case you want to catch up some reading while you drive.

With LED lights, thatās the equivalent of 2000 HID watts, according to some lights Iāve looked at on Amazon!
When I crank it up to pull 290, itāll be twice as bright as the sun!

You are supposed to be able to get about 50w per strip right? That would be ~400w so your lights should last quite a while even at full power on the driver unless I'm missing something.
And if you went with a bigger driver the possibility of shooting more juice to them than they can take is possible right?
Regardless I think you have plenty of light for a 2x4

LED temp is the limmiting factor. The hotter you run them the less efficient they are and it also shortens there life span. 55c or 130f is around max. I think my bridgelux strips run around 109.You are supposed to be able to get about 50w per strip right?

No min. The cooler they run the more efficient. So if you are diying, go with more LEDs.

Day 19 of 12:12.
Three across the back, left to right; Sangria Cookies, Twinkle Tarts & Vietnamese Silver Leaf.
Two in front, left to right; Cherry Wine & Orange Blossom Special
Iāve got the new light up to 270 watts out of 290. Thursday morning itāll get cranked up to 100% if there are no Iāll effects from the 270 setting.

That canopy looks nice and level even with no training.

Today after work I collected some pollen off the male Cherry Wine and hit nine or ten lower ālarfyā branches on the Female Cherry Wine.
Before pollinating, I removed the female from the tent, and moved it to another floor under itās own light. In fact, it took the place of the male that I collected pollen off of, and heās now in the green bin.
My plan is to leave the pollinated female out of the tent for two days, then Iāll mist it with some water and put it back into the tent. Hopefully thatās enough to prevent any of the other plants from getting pollinated by stray pollen.
Did it work? Stay tuned for six weeks to find out.

If you lack space, I have heard that after pollenation thay can go back in veg and the light cycle won't matter. Their job changed and is no longer 12/12 dependent.
