Never said it was just said there are less expensive ways to veg a plant, you could then have a larger budget for buying the W90 3k spectrum for flower. IMO less money in veg is a wise choice you don't need as powerful or expensive lights to veg.
Thats pretty situational from grower to grower.
No it's really not, weed needs more intense lights to flower than veg and that's a fact.
Yes it really is. Your thinking about your growing area. Your not thinking of others in other situations. Or others expected yields.
It was very possible to buy, at least for me. I was told initially that it would be 1-3 weeks, was given an update after a week that it was on track for 1-2 more weeks, and it shipped after 23 days.
The most intense and longest days are in late VEG for a cannabis plant...July-August for the northern hemisphere. As flowering begins, then progresses, intensity and duration lessen throughout.
When I veg with my LED's I don't use them on full power, like when I have my area 51 LED on my plants I turn off all the reds, you can do more with less sometimes, my electric bill has gone down almost 100$ since I started really getting on my electrical usage, I even am producing the same amount I was with 3 600w hps with only 2 600w hps. When I veg with my HID I dim the light down to 300w and use a metal halide light, it can cover like a 4x4 veg area. You are right, the more powerful your light the faster it will veg but seedlings can only take so much light so crank it down at first and in my opinion you can full veg a plant with only 300w of hid lighting I usually don't crank my lights to 600w until the flowering cycle starts, and usually crank it down to 75% at the end of flower to cool canopy temps.
I veg in that same size area. I currently have two W90's (4000k) in that space and it works well, three would be spot on for 8 vegging plants of that size. 8 W90's in that space for vegging would be way overkill! I have 8 in a 5x5 area for flowering with each plant over 3 feet high. You can get massive yields and high quality buds with that setup. So, to answer your question, go with 3. Hope this helps.
This was my original plan Yoda, a couple of 600s MHs dimmed down then cranked up once the girls are a certain size.
Duster, thanks the response. 3 i would be ok with cost wise. And i wouldnt have to get them all at once as i start off my perpetual grow.
A51 selectively ignores people from certain countries. I've had a few countrymen tell me how disappointed with A51's customer service they were. Did my best to be a good customer and not make things difficult, but I couldn't even get a shipping quota from them. I've received two packages from US just this week alone, so I don't see why they couldn't send the lights.
What ever happened to you guys making Cree lights, you even announced when you released your "new" lights back last year you were making cree lights, then you released the new series and they all vero lights. Disappointing to say the least then I saw the prices and screamed at my computer. But anyway are you ever going to make a CXB3590 or CXB3070 light like you said you would last year or were those just lies?
if the Vero is to expensive your cheap ass sure as he'll can't afford a Cree unit lol. Just curious why you want the cxb?Is it because that's all anyone talks about and you don't really know what your looking for?
It's called dank, we smoke it bro you can go take your prescription death.
