Yeah, coming form the CMH and HPS lights I used in the 90s to the LEDs I can see it's a big change all the way around to managing the environment. Funny you said HLG, because I thought of 2 HLG 650Rs before I saw the ROI hung folded in half. Do your or anyone have experience with HLG 650R Diablo Scorpion and what do you think about it?
For the side lighting is your your belief of just consistent canopy coverage over side lighting based actual testing yourself personally, or is it just your preference based on what you do and have seen other do? My thought is until I get my feet wet gardening again I need to try anything to help the lower parts I keep instead of me relying on getting a really even canopy early on. LOL! I guess I'm just trying to account for the mistakes I'm sure to make early on, as well as make it so in my mind I don't have to be as nervous about my current plant training skills (lack of it that is) and overdo it training. I would sure as hell love for it to be a bike that you get on and just ride, but, after 25 years and with all the technology changes it's definitely a lot to digest. Overall that's the train of thought I'm coming from. That said, I don't see ANYONE hanging them the way I'm asking about. Also, while I see the individual strips for side lighting I don't see many people using them so I figured maybe it's because 1 wasn't much, but x3 what would that do?
Thanks a lot for responding and giving me more to think about.
