'sup ppl
Just wanted to get an idea of the light penetration of a 600w HPS. I have plenty of wattage per foot so looking to do some untopped/un-LST'd single cola mamma's as height and plant numbers isn't a problem either. When I used a 400w before I learnt (the hard way) that if I grew them over 36" it was a waste due to the near 2ft of stems of micro buds on lower 2 thirds of plant! So I learnt to grow shorter, top/bud heavy plants.
Now I have a handful of 600w hps bulbs I was just wondering what the general concensus was amongst the community for how far through the canopy this bulb will reach? (with good effect) Im using 2 gallon pots and gonna supercrop to keep the height down but want an idea of what end height I wanna aim for.
