Cool idea, would be great to have outdoor grow space to work with.
Dutty you seem very helpful and all over this site, if you get a chance I'd love to have the opinion of an expert such as yourself on the journal in my link.

Right on. Let me know if I can help with the oil.
I believe you're going to love the Platinums.
I went to them from a pretty tight 600+w, cool tube hps. It was my baby.
The Platinum caused the hps, ballasts, fans to get boxed up.

I lowered it from about 24" above the canopy in veg, to 18" in flower.
The last week, I raised the light back to 24"as Curso advised. That caused a great last minute stress & trichs really boomed. The color on the gals was awesome with that lil trick.

I always remind myself that it's not just the light fixture with hid. I have to add the ballasts, extra timers, HVAC, & the extra fans too.
All that compared to a LED fixture.
I gotta add that my wife had had it with the noise of it all. Add my carbon filters & CO2, forget it.
The biggest issue I had was looking at the light as a spectrum wash, instead of intensity. I was about to start trimming the side, smaller growth, but it just kept developing hardcore. It barely had any of the LED light on them, but it was the quality of the light, not how bright it was. Kinda going from an Apple to a Microsoft.
Don't be too quick to prune those lower laterals. That weird ass pink light has some juju to it. Lol.
Also, I forgot, I switched from full spectrum back to the veg mode the last week too. Awesome colors.

I don't use Platinum, but when I grow with my LEDs, I maintain 20-24" through Veg. As plant height increases, I raise the light to maintain the distance. Sometimes I just say F it, and let them get as close as 18" in Veg. If no problems with bleaching/burn appear with that strain, I leave it and change my range to 18-22"
Once I hit flower I don't touch my lights until I get bleaching/burn. 16" was the closest my SB would tolerate the light without burn.
I'm still learning the ropes of growing, and I don't think they're too difficult to use. In your hands they'll be much more effective,, since you have years of experience.
And I'm digging that tip cajun mentions above, about raising the light to 24" during the final week. I'm going to give that a shot sometime.

You're a handy dude Dutty. Clean and professional build, wish I could throw something like that in the back of my house but I'm practically able to hand an egg out my window to the next door neighbors even though I sit on two acres.

Been going to bed early with all this work I've been doing. Yesterday I said fuck the straw I laid garden felt over all my beds. Harvested radishes and planted snap peas. Fucking goats escaped a few days back and ate all my snap peas so replanted that and carrots. Today I'll be up potting some autos that popped into 7 gallons and prep for placing in here.
