so confused over lighting

1. I concur with Airwalker, as good or better

2. Ideal wattage depends on how much you want to harvest. Click on this video link.


3. My research led me to Black Dog LED. They have grow along videos showing their lights growing upwards of 1.2 grams per watt.

I love my Black Dog LED, it's like owning the Tesla of lights.

4. Black Dog has their own spectrum used for both veg and flower.

Oldman drop into my thread, it highlights the BD Phytomax 2 LED light.

It comes down to quality and quantity of the yield, Black Dog shows both in their videos.

When I'm in FuckCombustion I get grief over being a Volcano lover.

If this were a car forum I'd get grief over being a Tesla fan.

.

I'm not going to invest the time to build a quality LED, I don't mind paying someone to do the work for me.

And I do have two Black Dog's - a 1000w for flower and a 200w for veg.

I'm ecstatic over both purchases.

Hey be nice he's not a Shill. Just a poor soul who was lied to. Let's try to educate him, make him feel welcome to ask questions and get him up to speed with why he shouldn't have spent that money. If we can at LEAST prevent him from buying another one, I'll feel good about it.

Ugh... That video was MADE BY THEM. Why in god's name would you EVER trust the company selling the lights? You've got no idea what fuckery was about during that grow. Could have very welk been under 2 DE HPS and swapped out with black dogs for the filming. Who knows?
And building a light is definitely the cheapest route, but there are DOZENS of pre built fixtures that are 1/4 the price of Black dog that would do EXACTLY the same job.

Y'all need to get off hybrids nuts. He's an Amare fan. Does he get payed by them? Probably, but we can all agree, they're decent lights.
nah was more poking at the spectrum side of hybrid hes good its just he placed himself on the wrong side of the line sometimes. their is always some banter between growers but I still don't understand why lenses affect a plant growth so much bongsmilie

@God of Agriculture oh my lord how its been such a long time. bongsmilie
We won't see him again. At least that's my take.
I assume his harvest either:
A) went to shit with bugs or rot.
B) was not as impressed as he thought he'd be with the results he was PROBABLY promised and led to believe.

So either way, we never saw the results and you can almost, ALMOST ;) Guarantee we never will.

so @OneHitDone which one are you? i mean, HLG sent you a top drawer light...for free.
haven't used LED, they used shitty LED or just didn't know how to grow with LED - or realizes and and understands all of these things and sees through the nm by nm spectrum spoon feeding bs game being played by led companies to continue to sell the "latest and greatest" tech over and over long before the "promised" life expectancy of the product is even up. Also, an individual who has gardened under the sun for many many years and understands what proper plant development looks and feels like across a broad range of plants species.

Keep reaching bro, a lot more out here know what is really up than you realize
