Any science to back that up? :P Thanks budleydoright, bit more of sensible attitude there. I agree with you it can still improve a bit, but from the evidence I've seen I believe there are killer panels out there now (but only with 3-4 different LED companies) with how much the tech advanced...

I've never done a real side by side, but I'm pretty sure they work better too (especially based on the side by sides I've seen others do). I feel .8 gallon air pots are the most versatile size (great for autos, 12-12 from seed, 1-2 month veg), they don't take up much space, they take maybe 32oz...

What is this MIR you speak of?

How can you ask if you will get the same yield with 6 hours less light every day for 5 weeks? :P No it will be less, but it might not be less enough to keep you from doing it again, there are pros and cons to 12-12 from seed just like there are pros and cons to 18/6 from seed. But yes 12-12...

Maybe it has something to do with how much wind they've been subjected to? I imagine plants that didn't get much of a breeze would be more hollow, although I imagine that wouldn't be that big a part of it (anyone know what is?)

Yeah it usually takes 12-12 from seed and auto plants about 2-3 weeks to get into flowering right? So going 18/6 the first couple weeks instead of 12-12 would get you 1 extra weeks time. I wonder if that would be more stressful to the plant than 12-12 from seed though?

I can't say they're the best because I haven't seen enough done with other companies lights, but I can say I haven't seen as many completed grows done with any other company (or such consistently good results without complaints about it not working as well as thought/claimed. I do think they are...

I know! I'm actually quite surprised no one is selling panels with more than 12 wavelengths, just so they could at least try and claim they are better because of it. Most seem to be 3 or 4, or 7, or 12. But the market seems to have settled on 12 for a max, so perhaps that really is as far as it...

Irish will likely advise the same, a single 500w panel would not be enough at 14w per square foot, but more importantly it would be taking on a tent almost double what it should. If I were you to save money (upfront and in electricity usage over time) I would start off by buying 1 or 2 of the...

I chose GLH and I don't consider myself a fanboy (as I tell people what I'd go with for less or more $) I want to hear as much about this incident as anyone so I know if I want to continue business with glh. I agree, the website has no excuse though, its been that way since last year (except for...

I didn't say I don't consume what I grow or that I don't consume at all (please stop assuming so much about me/putting words into my mouth?), I said I don't smoke or intend to ever use a bong. I don't build LEDs, but I'm sick of people who haven't seen the proof or used one themselves saying...

I just did? I really don't see how someone can can argue that because a particular store doesn't sell them that they must be junk, its much easier for someone who has never used an LED (especially a good one) to say they can't work. I've seen many completed grows, I completed 1 flowering with my...

There is no mention of "spectra" on that page you linked, no its the wrong company. Growledhydro is the correct company, the confusion comes from how the used to name their units like everyone else (# of diodes x the max wattage of each diode). But then they switched to naming them by how total...

Oh yeah thanks for not believing at all, and also thanks for assuming I smoke which is something I don't do (I don't ever intend to use a bong even). These plants I just showed were all LED except for 1-2 that had 5-7 days under CFL as seedlings first (can't remember if the male had been or if...

Tried to do some flushing today, but I think the Mykos and roots of the plant might just be so intense the water can only go into the soil a lot slower than normal. Hopefully it doesn't become a big problem, its been this way for 1-2 weeks but the plants don't seem to be suffering much from...

Since I'm pretty small time with only 1 patient, I have a 2.5x2.5x6ft tent and a 12 spectrum/wavelength 395w LED (252x3w LEDs + (6x3w fans)) I look at it this way. I spent $1100 to replace my 400w Super HPS reflectorhoodwithglass with something almost equal in electrical useage (and I knew...

You're the only person I've ever seen with any complaint of GLH actual product growing quality (and not something like time to respond to email). Never heard of such a problem with any LED really, my 395w GLH I was flowering seedlings at 2ft and have never had any light bleaching. I hope it...

I'm confused now too, I have no idea what you are talking about :P

I've seen certain companies that sell 'UFOs' with tech that keeps 1 dead LED from taking out a large chunk of your UFO. So if I were you I'd hunt one of those down if you have to get a UFO (i'd get a rectangular panel over a round one, its at least easier to find ones this way and the tech I...

I agree, it also helps drive home the fact its an LED grow. What I would do was just take a picture of them before I took them out, then take one under normal light once I pulled them out. Pwetty pwease iwishboy? pics under LED light? :)
