suncircle 360 degree rotation (bottom)

this is a time lapse of my suncircle that i pulled out of storage after 10 years and it works great. i'm attempting to blend my light spectrum evenly, simulate sunrise/sunset,and clouds passing.one 1000w hortilux super hps and one 1000w hortilux blue metal halide are on in the video and will be adding one more hps which will be a 1000w son agro red.the hps lamps turn on an hour and a half befor the metal halide,and off an hour and a half before they turn off, to simulate sunrise/sunset light spectums and to save a little on the electric bill w/ little to no negative effect on yield.the spinning of the suncircle distributes light spectrums evenly, allows me to place lamps closer for more intense light,and simulates clouds passing giving them a brief rest between lamps before they get blasted by intense light on the next pass. nexy crop i might replace an hps with a cfl with ultra violet bulbs and an LED fixtures as a potency and yield experiment. i'll be making my own fixture as the LEDs on the market do not conform to my situation.

u dont need to stimualte the clouds passing by.

[cannasseur]

i think the word you wanted was "simulate". i never said i needed to, if you read the description you would understand why i am. you don't need to leave comments either but you did...

[GrowersAround]

have you done this before?how is the result?

[cannasseur]

i have used the cicrle before but not with this quality of bulbs.the circle always works great and covers a 12 by 12 foot area w/ a max 3000 w. i havent used it in over ten years and i,m beginning to wonder why i let it collect dust for so long ,i'm a huge advocate of light movers,i can get my 1000s inches from my tops w/o heat build up or burning leaves. i'm expecting one of my best harvest in years! 4-5 lbs+ from 3000w. 5-6 ounces from each plant and there are 14 plants in the room.

@Xare420 lol, not many people get it :] Sorry for the late response but it was needed :)

To bad your bulbs are not horizontal.

[andrewniles1]

It would be interesting to see how it works.

@YouJustDontNoMe they will only start flowering once the light cycle is change to 12 on 12 off

[YouJustDontNoMe]

Won't your plants misunderstand the light, and begin flowering?

and a grow box from bc northern lights, hold 18 plants hydro with c02, and 2 400 watt HID's and i get about 2 pounds. with only 2 weeks of veg starting from clones

[jenn1ifer]

thats about right. i put 16 plants under a 600 watts, and get 1 pound. i have 8 groups of 16 plants with a 600 watt HID, and i have 8 gruops, and get 8 pounds.

i use super metal halides for veg, and super hps from hortilux for flower. i use c02, and try to keep temps 76-80 in the day, and 70-74 at night
