Irish Boys Return Of The Inferno With The Spectra 180's

[stoneyluv]

he man, how are the girls doing? do you still only have the one 180 above them?

I got my new GLH UFO's today!!! one is broke though.... one is better than none!!

 

[irishboy]

that sucks one was broke? call Mike ASAP and let him know.

damn i posted this on the wrong thread.lol.

heres my little ones a 10 days. theirs getting hungry and i need to start bumping up the nutes now. ive been real lite on the feedings because of the high temps but i am thinking their roots are getting big where they want more foods, i have to wait for the medium to dry, when i did the wicking they got too much water and i have to dial that in, water wicked all the way up top. i kust need to give them a shorter watering time maybe shave off a minute?

either way their growing and looking good, you can tell the heat is not making them too happy but their dealing with it pretty good, just sharp edges, but their healthy and i am happy! as of right now i have 2x180's over them so i can get more foot print and spread the girls out

sweet bro, I agree they look good

 

[stoneyluv]

they look even better than last week!!! hope they dry out quick for ya.... this will be a good test though, finding out how long it takes to dry out when it is totally watered.

and yea, one was broke. the fan rattles and only half the diodes lite up. I was gonna call Mike tomorrow.

ya their going threw their grow phase and growing nice everyday. it will be good to know how long the water takes, ill get it dialed in and its going to be easy growing after that, change the water once a week everything els will be auto.lol

ya call mike

thanks bro, i have lots of other grow on the web if you Google my name, the ones on here were my small journals.

i really dont think prices will drop but i think the tech will only get better for the price. remember not any led light is the same everyone makes a different one so you must do your homework my friend. 99% company's are scams out their.

For sure from what ive seen GLH is one of the best(even before seeing your grow )
So i would probably go with them.

And surely they will reach a point of being better than HIDs and you can only get so powerful before you start being too intense and causing light leaching right? I figure at that point or before with mass production and better fabrication methods the price will drop. (look at computers and Flat screens vs 5 or 10 years ago)

But i would drop $600 if i knew it was a kickass light that would last a long time

i know the older less intense 2010 led beat a HPS in a side x side. http://www.420magazine.com/forums/completed-journals/124858-300w-led-vs-400w-hid-demonstration-92.html

i am not too sure if too much light will harm the plants? ive seen cases both ways but i am not sure because my last plants were touching the 500w lights glass and not one issue. i believe the trick is to start off high and let the plants adapt to the lights and let them chose to grow into it instead of taking them from a few watts of CFL and slamming them with high power light. if the less intense light match beat a HPS with less watts then i dont see how the high power ones would not smoke it? i will find out with my own eyes. i dont see prices going cheaper though anytime soon.

Somewhere i read that GLH was coming out with a newer better version still (or was that the 2011 models up on the website?)
Why dont you think prices will drop? I mean for 500w your paying $1.2k :/ thats alot of green to drop when HPS are cheap by comparison.

out of all the years ive been growing with leds i havent seen prices really drop too much. you will just get more for your money but the dollar sing will still be up their. GLH always come out with new units but the new ones coming out have the glass out witch ive always done and am a big fan of.

HPS is allot cheaper and thats why some go that route. leds are not for every grower and their mainly for higher quality buds while being a little better then HPS on yield from what ive seen . the best results ive ever gotten growing was with these leds and any light ive had paid more then enough for its self on my 1st harvest from savings on meds. but HID is cheaper and grows nice plants also, just all about what each person wants?

 

[BlazedMonkey]

True true, so in your experience the LED bud has been danker so to speak? Does it taste better? or more potent?

And thanks for the info i hope im not cluttering your journal too much

my leds buds have been very dank and dense! i havent done a side by side so i cant say for sure about it with HPS but theirs a grower that did lab test and the led plants were higher.

i pull killer dank every grow and thats what i am after! i am all about quality.. some of the best weed ive smoked, not sure if it taste better? thats more to do with nutes used

 

[joey2011]

Still waiting for my 2 leds. They are taking for ever nearly 2 weeks now after they were said to be shipped ahhh

 

[fartman]

just wanted to show off my girls at 13 days flower 1 ww 1 short rider the third is ww just put in flower today thanks for letting me use your thread irish and compliments r always welcome lol
any reccomendations too

 

[Jman305]

ya i am the 1st ive seen run this system, just wanted to try something new and see if it works good? try to make growing/life easier with our plants and feeding.lol. so far so good.

as with the leds working ive show the 2010's worked great on many journals but i havent been able to test the new 2011's and give my opinion yet until i finish this grow. soon lets hope the heat dosent get to the girls again and we can flowering with no issues. its still at least 100F in their each day, cant wait for winter.lol

Do you think any morrocan or afghani strains might be good for your situation considering their natural habitat is a desert climate? Or some East Asian strains since you seem to have not very many problems with your humidity? I've even seen no filter replacement humidifiers for $30 at sears. Works on a 20-30 sq ft rm for about 2.5 hours.

that sucks. i heard he was waiting on the chines to send the new lights and it will next week, they screwed him from what i was told and i am waiting on my lights also, but i am not worried because i am getting the new lights.lol

i do have a afghani strain this run thinking the same thing, i also have the fabric pots to help with cooling the medium temps, lets hope this works.

 

[stoneyluv]

here is family shot and some good ol' GLH frost!!!

 

[irishboy]

looking great brother! frosted like always. man i love sexy weed!

 

[fartman]

how long does it take for white widow to start frosting?and am i understang this right its the frost that the trixchromes r on that u look at with a magnifying glass to see when its done?

 

[joey2011]

what his getting them from the chines ?. Yer what ones am i getting seems to be taking ages i asking for a shipping track but no reply several times. I was looking to buy quite afew after but i like to know where my money is. Lack of communication regarding my lights.

yes, you are correct, resin (trics) production should start in 2-3 weeks of flowering. sometimes even sooner.
