    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    Really I'm not sure about fly overs, I only know what ive heard, and we all know how accurate hear-say is. I have always thought that the fly overs look for high heat spots and high concentrations of IR radiation. So as far as hot spots go, the LED isnt producing one.

    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    They produce no heat really. The lights are cool to the touch and any heat that they do produce is already taken care of seeing as there are about 8 fans built into the LED light constantly cooling it, but the exhaust from these fans is cool as well. My reservoir really shows the difference...

    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    I am running out of ceiling room unfortunately. I intend to do a few different grows with the LEDs to test the distance differences but for now I am going to finish this one out keeping them a few inches away. I want to move them farther away, believe me but im out of room. I have about a...

    Ok guys I cloned two females in my homemade ez cloner and the roots look crazy. the stem expanded and looks like a big spike ball. Interesting. Anyways I chopped out all the males which is a fun task for me. I'm left with 28 plants from my original 41. I'm beginning to worry about the...

    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    Honestly I'm excited about it because there are tons of nodes everywhere. I am thinkin that it might be packed with bud since it penetrates so well. Instead of the top stem being thick in full, all the stems will be thick and full. I have my fingers crossed! I will be flowering next week...

    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    Hey man , thanks for the comments..I am a little nervous about flowering but watching the veg is really exciting. If the same delivery comes in flowering as it does in veg then im expecting a much larger yield from the LED. I will go into my explanation in the update I'm about to post.

    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    Thats awesome that you are using some 300w leds. I am not sure what the chip watt is per light. But I have noticed with many companies they advertise that you can keep the LEDs 2 or 3 feet away from the plants....I feel these claims are very unrealistic. Also I feel that there are many LEDs...

    THE LEDS HAVE ARRIVED! WEEK 5 DAY1 The LED's arrived 3 days ago and were set up then. Pictures below were taken today. I've noticed that the plants in the left drain table (under the 1000 watt) are noticeably larger than the ones in the right table. The plant heights are not different due to...

    300w LED vs 1000w HPS Hydroton Drip Grow

    Here they are! Now the clones look pretty terrible but I'm not too experienced with clones so if anyone has any advice I'd be happy to hear it. Its hard to see but the clones are in rapid rooter plugs. I have an adjustable temp heating pad keeping them warm. They are slumped over but it is...

    OK GUYS. UPDATE NUMBER 1 AND A FEW CHANGES IN THE AGENDA. INstead of using Sunshine systems I will be using Hydro-gro-led.com as my LED supplier. Instead of using their 318w setup I am going to use (4) 126w units. I talked with the president of the company and he said for a 4x4 area he...
