I saw a reflector that looked similar to the Sun System hood too but when I took a closer look only the corners had the dimple finish, the rest looked like smooth aluminum. Not sure if this is like the one you mentioned. I was concerned about hot spots and from everything I have read, the "dimpled" finish seems to have the best light distribution, but I am also guilty of analysis paralysis!!!
 
PuravidaC, thats funny I was thinking that it would be better, like having 5 bulbs! When you think its the bulb filament that gives off the color spectrum it makes more sense to me, but that's just how im thinking, not an educated opinion at all. I could be wrong! lol
 
Sonnyhad, makes total sense to me too but everything I've read says that a mirror does not reflect near as much light as you would think. Flat white paint is higher. I don't have a tent but from all the photos I've seen they have a "dimpled" surface. I'm still trying to figure out how to be a simple weed farmer!!!
 
I have a 1000hps and I never really worried about how high it was from the plants then I read Nebulas tutorial on Lighting(several times takes awile for us old farts to get it lol). but I purchased a light meter and now I adjust light so that all my colas are getting between 40 and 85,000 luxs. what a difference it has made. I suggest reading it.
 
I just contacted Growers choice the 3K bulb is a full phase flower bulb... the 4K is a full phase veg bulb...the 10K is for the last two weeks of flower before Harvest...

So there you go...
 
Just throwing this out there for anyone living near Portland Oregon, VM Garden Center on se 82nd (there's another store across the river in Vancouver,WA aka the couv) is still running their lec sale, lec315 with bulb ballast and hood(the good kind sun system!) for $355!!! Told yesterday they're running the sale till the end of the month "or forever". Told the same thing last month! I assume they can ship the suckers but shipping costs might not add up. Got me one already and planning on getting two more soon as the budget boss gives me the green light! Come on budget boss you know it's for a good cause!!!
