BML Spyder600 Review


The SolarEclipse220 delivers 1831umol@12", 1095umol@24", 596umol@36".

oops...This is the video I was calling the utah video....it is not at that Uni...my bad...cant remember why I transposed that...sounds like you watched it.....the CLW 880 is in it and gets very poor marks. If I had to pick LSG or BML based on this study clearly the BML comes out on top for light/watt ratio.[/QUOTE]
thats a good vid ..the bml 1200 is about 600 more then ss and the 1000 is about 300 more ..also how old is this bc blackdog has since replaced there xlu platinum with photomax 800 and now even offer a 1000..interesting video though..i just got the ss880 and is on my first grow fingers crossed hopefully it goes well

The numbers out of the sphere are totally different than the amare numbers you are quoting. The amare numbers are just center measurements. The video is total PPF output of the fixture..... Totally different measurements honestly.

Well I have a lighting company lol. Outside of that though bmls new spyder-x is going to be a nice unit. Also there are a number of great Lights on here of the cob/Les variety. I am partial to cree but some of the vero29 units look good as well. Tasty Led, PLC, Go Greens, Area 51, Timber, HeavenBrights new model, my company, BML, Apache, Optic, Amare are all good choices honestly. Really the ss880 isn't all that bad but you can do alot better. Stay away from anything epi led whatever and just my opinion im not in love with monos in the least "blurpule" colored.

ok thanks will take all that into consideration she getting next thanks
 
BML, must have an extensive holiday pay schedule. I have left two messages since Monday of last week. No reply yet? Kinda frustrating!

They took a while to get back to me on the week of Thanksgiving also. Maybe they switched over to Fluence already, have you tried emailing them there?
 
So almost a year later here. I should have posted sooner. I am extremely excited about my results with the spydr 1200. First and foremost I had a ton of issues this year. I almost gave up. First aphids, then spyder mites. Last grow I didn't even use molasses as I always have. With all this going on I only had 4 in the flower room versus the usual 6. I only used 7 of the lights. This was by far the heaviest yield I have ever gotten.

These buds wouldn't even go down into a red solo cup. Only issue I had with the light is how cool it stays in the room now. Temperatures dropped 10 degrees. Stays around 70 with lights on
 
My 2.5 yo SPYDR 600 is for sale. I selected the diode spectrums (~90% white + 450 & 630)

Very good light. Maybe 6 grows. PM and make me an offer I can't refuse.

You have the older BML 1200?
I wanted that light do bad when I first started studying led. Probably the only Burple light I like.
Nice buds!
Nice to see results with it. I wonder if it can really yield 2 pounds like the N.Cal video vs. DE. I always thought it could but then I used a Burple light & thought that video may be bogus. I dunno though. The few harvests I've seen w/ it always looked good. Never heard any #'s though.
Glad you like it!

4 plants, the worst grow I have ever had as far as issues with the spider mites. I really slacked in nutes and molasses. Not sure exactly what each one yielded. I had two HSO blue dreams and two JTR. More weight from the blue dreams for sure, but I yielded over a pound. If I would have waited another week I could have got more from the bottom half but I was ready to start treating the issue with the mites. FFOF and FF nutes. This could have been way better had I been more attentive. Learning experience for me. The good news is , this thing is banging. I didn't even use all the lights. Used six till about Fith week of flower then added another strip. Haven't used it fully yet. I have not one regret about this light! I'm no pro by any means, but this light is can do wonders. Any questions please feel free to ask
