Welcome to @Be Irie's demonstration of 600w LED. This grow will compare 600w capability against 600 watt HPS.
@Be Irie was 420 Magazine's first quadruple crown contest winner, claiming Member, Plant, and Nug of the month honors as well as Nug of the year; before we co opted him for staff

- Mandala seeds- Satori
- Tents are 4' x 4' x 7'
- 4 plants per tent total using LST
- Total veg time before flowering will be 9-12 weeks
- After veg, HPS plants will be removed from tents and walled off in isolation flower room (preventing light bleed)
- Nutes are Be IRIEs secret organic blend
- Transplanting up to 5 gallon containers as needed
- The point of this grow is to maximize net dry weight
- Be IRIE's discretion to alter any setpoints or targets during the grow
- Indicas will be harvested individually when trichomes are approximately 50/50 amber/cloudy and Sativas when 25/75 cloudy/amber
- 420 Magazine's Forum Posting Guidelines apply

brother!
I'm aboard for the ride. Been anticipating this for a while now. Thanks for putting in the effort to demonstrate this for the community, Be IRIE! 
I will do my best to answer what I can and will always be open to suggestions. Hope everyone had an IRIE 4th and enjoyed the long weekend.....
