Led better for home grows. Its tough cooling more than 1 1000 watt hps in a tent or closet. ImoDifferent strokes for different folks. A lot of new guys choose led's because they see other people on here using led's with extreme success with fat colorful pretty stinky sticky top shelf bud. That could be one reason but what do I know I'm just a noob with an LED.
Hey total newb question but why are blurples so bad? I'm just curious? is it b/c they don't do the full spectrum of light?So he bought one of the worst led you can buy and it didn't go well what a shock...
They lack output. they are so cheap now just buy one an try it then you will understandHey total newb question but why are blurples so bad? I'm just curious? is it b/c they don't do the full spectrum of light?
I wouldn't waste my money on purple lights.They lack output. they are so cheap now just buy one an try it then you will understand
I got blurple Aglex 1200w. 215w from the wall for free from a friend and I only use them to veg but I wouldnt use them for flower though I got cobs for that.I wouldn't waste my money on purple lights.
Curious how such a short tent will flower, I’m playing with the idea of stacking tents. I already have my clone/seedling tent above my veg tentNew grower here, went with Mars Hydro TS1000 because growing is not allowed in my state and my tent is 20"x20"x48". HPS would be way too hot for such a small space and the TS1000 seemed better then a bunch of CFLs. Being able to easily remove the driver to the outside of the tent is another huge plus. I can veg at 75w with super tight node spacing, probably because the light is almost the same size as the tent itself. For me I went with a cheaper led because it works for what I need it for. Since getting the light my first two plants were Male so I have no clue how it flowers but it can veg the hell out of plants, that's for sure. I currently have a 4 week old bison breath plant which I am fairly sure is female and a 2 week old Gorilla Punch from a fem seed so in a few months I will know how it works for flower. All in all I would say people buy lights based on their environment, up front cost, and cost of operation but really can only speak for myself.
Idk my buddy has a kingled that pulls like four hundred from the wall and he grows weight. Meaning he does well with them . Five by five w two , approximately 800 watts from the wall.They lack output. they are so cheap now just buy one an try it then you will understand
3x320w china boards dimmed down would work good in a five by five. about $710 from ali for 301h.I choose HID lighting because I have no technical abilities and I need something to illuminate a 5x5. I can keep a few spare ballasts and bulbs and be guaranteed to keep my grow running. If an LED craps out, Idhave to mail it back for repair.
I’ve considered LED multiple times, and it seems like the technology is changing too fast for me. I looked at blurple, but then people were talking about cobs so I waited. Now they’ve moved on to quantum boards. It’s all very intimidating.
if I had to buy a light today, I’d look at this one for long term use. Im sure that it can be built for a lot less by someone who knows what they’re doing.
NextLight Mega LED Grow Light
Part of the Commercial Series the NextLight Mega produces a high intensity full spectrum light designed to efficiently replace any DE 1000w HPS on the market. This bright white LED grow light was named “Mega” not for its size but for the increased productnextlight.com
I paid less than 75cents a watt for 301h which is a little more pricey than the 240's. You could veg that 5x5 great with 400w or960w dimmed and flower at 700w and do great. Saves a lot of energy.They choose blurple because they are misled by companies bs marketing, look at black dog led, 2 grand for 600 Watts lmao, their marketing game is hella strong though. Diy led is the only way to go if you go led, Samsung diodes or trustworthy knockoff. Led is supposed to be about cost efficiency, if it can't be justified taking everything into account including initial cost then it just isn't worth it.
Haha well I'm glad he "pulls weight" that totally beats scienceIdk my buddy has a kingled that pulls like four hundred from the wall and he grows weight
? Just telling u what he uses and how he does ... That's it lolHaha well I'm glad he "pulls weight" that totally beats science
I think he means wtf do you mean by he grows weight. Do you mean the light is 400 from the wall and he gets 400 or more grams under the one light?? Just telling u what he uses and how he does ... That's it lol
It means he started w blurple and he is doing wellI think he means wtf do you mean by he grows weight. Do you mean the light is 400 from the wall and he gets 400 or more grams under the one light?
you'll probably need a dhuCan't you keep the stink in the grow room overnight? Must get cold in the room if the fan goes steady too.
I live out in the country on a small acreage and did worry about the stink a bit as the wife sells eggs so if we had calm or static wind conditions the whole yard got stunk out. Three years ago I bought a nice carbon filter for damn near $200 and it still sits all sealed up in it's box. Can-Fan 6x24", 600cfm. Using it atm as a stand for the fan in the veg room upstairs. lol
Now that it's legal I don't much care if someone smells pot in my yard tho if I apply for my medical grow permit I may end up using it but I doubt it. I might put it up on Kijiji along with the trimmer I'll never use.

No lights really work well in oppressive heat, just another hyped broscience troll clickbait comment aimed at sickering in new growers who dont know different.
Do they not sell hps in hot countries and are there none who manage what you dont... one of us is on the side of science and one is talking rubbish....
There's always a shitty hot spot in the middle of an hps set up. Plus led is 40% more efficient. With the better spread you can easily yield 2lbs with 500w of led. Your toxic dude.Hps too hot my fucking ass, learn to grow.
Always some sales hype broshite being perpetuated by those who bought into the last hype.
Theres hps growers smashing it yet and if hps is too hot how is more light colder....
Years of this bs no wonder blurples get such good attention from new growers as they cant be arsed with overpriced unfriendly hyped us snake oil thats more toxic than ebola
Kind leds blow though. $1200 you'd have to be an idiot. With 600w of led at 200lm/w I'd shit on a thousand hps at 140lm/w. The spread is better, and that's why.people online have done KIND LED v HPS grow comparisons and the HPS shit all over the expensive LED's.
why are you so fucking toxic and aggro in every thread mate? fucking hell.
I think your gina is dry.The attitude of leds here is not fun and now you lot have trolled so hard few actually know how even to dry which is another subject of confusion many are pointing out.
Be more fun if you actually made factual points and not the anemic led spectrum beats hps all the time....
Grow up
The lab can tell the difference though. 16% thc and higher terps aslo.Many have championed uv here and reported fuck all, thats the general onclusion so.by all means make big uv claims but it means fuck all to most who know shit.
But led growers be like i get stronger frostier weed and can tell uv bud from non uv bud - i mean thats basically what your saying hmmmmm...!
