Been there. Left a germination tray with 12 seedlings in it on a work bench in a 55 degree garage for 3 days one time. They were not amused.

I agree with %100 of this. What is really frustrating is the low availability of high quality OTS led fixtures. As I said, HLG and Timber do it right but they sell out nearly the second they become available. As a consumer I would love it if a wealth of companies sprouted up who put out the...

We were typing at the same time it would seem. See my response above.

You bought a cheap, pre-built COB fixture and had disappointing result. I've seen that play out countless times. And I think every reasonable proponent of LED would be fully on the same page as you in regards to your complaints about that type of light. In fact all the hardcore led nerds are...

@sparkygeek You said your COB was inexpensive and OTS (which I assume means 'off the shelf', as in pre-assembled) so perhaps you could just let everyone here know exactly what the light is? Manufacturer, model, that sort of thing? We could have a more informed discussion about why your...

Howdy contestants. Just rolling through to check in on the progress. Your plants are looking good people! Wish I was still in it! Here is my little grow cab goings on as of yesterday. The big one is my Orkle, which despite a little nute burn, has recovered fairly well from the ass kicking i...

I saw people using them in high powered blurples... Not since.

I wasn't aware anyone was still water cooling leds in a grow application. Any links to examples? Just curious.

You seem to have not noticed numerous requests to look at the well documented and excellent results people are having with modern tech. Growmau5 was mentioned more than once and he has been crushing shit with LED for a while now and there are numerous examples of others right here on this sight...

Hope you get better soon.

No. Just wondering how relevant you think something that's 6 generations from current is.

Gen 1? Uhhh....

I'm all about white over reflective.

None of the reputable led companies use equivalency any more. Timber, HLG, CobKits.... the only equivalency you'll find with them is data sheets showing par and ppfd comparisons. So when @Stephenj37826 or @CobKits say that a particular configuration of lights or a particular fixture is...

I'm subbed for sure if you do a journal. Production level grows have always been the battle cry of HID growers because it's the one type of grow that hasn't really been tried much with current gen led tech. GML is doing a side by side on YouTube right now between hps and HLG 550s that's...

Looks like you're going to have some excellent hash making material to go with those frosty flowers. Nice!

Lol.

We all know sime hps users get pissy about this topic. So do some led users. Let's all try not to be those people. I absolutely adore my QB, but it isn't worth getting made if some hps user decides I'm silly for that opinion.

For me it's a matter of less total heat because I can get the ppfd I need with less total watts combined with far less IR than HPS. Because of the reduced IR I have found that my plants actually prefer a higher ambient room temp because the gradient between leaf temp and ambient temp is so much...

That is absolutely true. I've always tried to recognized that there are situations that call for different tools. I just wish people would be honest, reasonable and open minded. Saying current gen led is ineffective is just as silly as saying there is no place for HID. The problem is that...
