I tried ppfd and DLI and my plants did light-avoidance and drooped at supposedly 500 umols.
I converted lux to ppfd using the “full spectrum” option in the online calculator.
Lux is working better for me and my eyes work even better. I dunno what to think about the numbers now. Just gonna keep on. Good to see it working for you, happy growing sir Pothead!
If you have a panel led try the 3500k spectrum. My app is about 5% off from published map of the light with that selection.

Watered all pots with cal-mag at 7ml per gallon rate. Checked pH 6.22 close enough.
Fade continues on lowers.
Buds are stacking.
And a little incident today involving pruning.
A faded interior leaf for cull snipped and
Well shiiiiiit.
Fade on stringy stretch White Widow. This plant blushed yellow early and got me to add nutes including the 1 1 1 pour 4 days early.
It was my canary in the coal mine and has stimulated the brain into a new technique.
Next run is going to be 6 plants again. 2 strains as II can split the lights and such. 2 will be one of each strain ( that I have never ran before ) and will be my canary in the coal mine. I will pop these 2 seeds a week earlier. I would rather have one plant go yellow allowing me to amend the plan on the other 2.
Cal-mag from week 4 as this is when the soil runs out.
Scheduled appointment for a quote on a mini split for the grow room.
Been retired medically for 3 years now and I guess I can start using my 401k for its intended purpose.
Making my retirement years better.
Will be exiting all the tent and room exhaust outside so going to ask about a manifold and filter setup from HVAC guy.

Numbers : 68 at night at 1.3 VPD with a slight dip towards 1.1 VPD after transition before the plants shut down.
77 day with a slight over swing to 80 due to residual heat in room from humidifier running at night. Takes 30 minutes to hit 77 with no heat support but over swings to 80 and does not come down till 9am.
I hate that it’s why I am getting the climate control.
Lights at 68% tops at 50k. Bowl lowers at 34k .
By 8 am the house smells like a berry farm that happens to be right next door to a cannabis farm. By 9am and 77 the smell is faint.

I tried 3500k (and 3000) and got 700 to 750. That makes more sense. Thanks again

What kinda light is that? You can tell , or at least I think you can tell lol that those leaves are likely much darker than they look , that’s the one thing I hated about journaling, you never can quite capture that in person appearance

I have a main panel at 400 watts, 2 on the right side 150 watts each and all of them are Vivosun with the fan in the panel. A small manual 70 watt panel at the left rear philzon filling in a weak corner.
They never see much over 85% and 65000 lux cept the 70 watt fill in is at 100% all the time

I never could get my lights to look normal in pics so I just gave up, like if you look in my journal and others the same plant can look deficient in the tent and then look roudy healthy green outside it it’s weird

To get good photos in tent try reducing lights to low (mine does 25%) and I use flash on my camera.
And yes under natural light the plants look much darker.

Fade has stopped with 3 levels of fans still intact.
Top is green. Yellows kept until necrotic or done
White Widow 1
Widows got away from me during stretch. Splash on BBMR limited me to how high I could run widows and it shows.
It had modest fade lower which has stopped and burned tips from lights.
