Wow, thanks. We know what the 600 hps can do.

This thread was for those of us using LEDs. I am not about comparing the two lights for flowering.

Just seeing what they can do. I highly recommend them for herb gardens because the recover plants fast, so you can trim up some herb and come back a week later and its a fuller plant. My Basils loves my 14watt homegrown LED.

I think phototron pruning technique is key to make any weight happen on a bush. We'll see in a couple months tho.

ok fist this is not my first post on this thread if you read the whole fucking thing you would know that.. 2nd I think a little REAL FUCKING INFO needed to be droped in here again... but instead I wana clown the shit out of that last few pages of bull shit that should be deleted off this forum for fear it might miss lead a fellow medical patient, that is looking to grow pot and looking for lights.
heard this 90 watt peace of shit is as good as a 600 watt hps but it cost twice as much..thought they would save money in the long run.. but wanted to come to a trusted site to find out the truth.....Then you get stupid fucking post raving about there 1.5' and 6" grows that grew in 20 days what i have seen in 3..the funny thing is i am utilizing some led i wasted money on in a nft vegger
but it also has 160 watt of floro ........looks cool and the leds are neer to tuching the grow area....put a hid virtical
for the most utilization of watts

reppy!

what the fuck man. what the fuck. I definitely wanna hear the story bro.

(I'm harvesting next week, my one good plant, under 400w leds, and taking up 2 square feet, is going to yield over a gram per watt!)

This is the year of led repvip you called it.

hey guys have any of you heard of dutchgreengrowlights.co
they are prob the best led on the market the price is steep but prob worth it in the long run they have a genuine test report of there 300watt spectra unit ,has been posted in softsecrets magazine and forum by a reliable grower dokkie.
its not about energy saving its about bigger buds with led.
the spectrum of these lights is diff then all others it has 3-4 diff colours and add uv-light the results are amazing checkit out here is a link to the test and there site.

i have yet to start a grow... but i have gathered 10 3W red and blue leds making a total of 40 watts of light. I am planning on putting together a stealth pc grow box because i run a webserver at home and own 2 gaming computers so it will be an extra addition to the 3 computers i already have... but i am planning to put 8 leds on top and 2 on each side down near the side of the plant...

The leds i have are 65 lumens off ebay just search 3w led red and 3w led blue... im also ordering some redorange ones because they add to the correct spectrum of light the plants want... so when i get everything set up i will post...

Wish I'd seen this thread earlier, just noticed it. Anyhoo, Lots of negative fuckers out there that need to trade their cars in for a horse and buggy, you know as to be consistant with there stuck in the past ethos. I use LED and CFL combo expressly due to low heat and low energy use. I'm using the 90w UFO. If things were different, lets say if this shit was legal, then everyone knows that the fireball in the sky would be the best choice. I think they work, or at least they did for me.

old grow in an aerogarden, which also is said not to work...




and my current 2 wild bitches that if were not tied would be 6ft tall, pics don't lie.

The NO heat issue is bullshit.
I used a 90 watt ufo led grow light and the grow tent got into the 90's with no ventilation.

ok guys, easy does it. this thread was designed to post information about LED's from people who have used them. However it again looks as if its turning into -my daddy can kick your daddy's ass- thread. Please the topic is LED USERS SHARE YOUR RESULTS, not is HPS better than LED.

We are really comparing apples to oranges, This thread is for those who A. Can't use HPS (like me), B. Are running experiments with LEDs. or C. Have used LEDs in the past for whatever reason. By no means are we trying to find out which one has the bigger ball sack. Lets stop fighting, and start posting more results, so that people who have to, or just want to can come to a better buying decision on which LEDs just might not suck that bad.

Thanks everyone!

In a house with a temp of 68* my room is a constant 70*.

Room is maybe 2x4x5' with a 80mm comp fan pulling air through a dryerhose.

I mean I am not saying leds do not need ventilation but plants sure as shit do so it better be there anyway.

If your shit was in the 90s with no ventilation maybe your room holds heat to well or you need to vent the bitch.

I also have two dual tube floros in there and its still a constant 70*

so IDK what the issue with your heat was.

The only issue with people using HID in an apt. is they usually do it wrong and have lots of issues that are easily resolved.

Depending on how thing the walls and floors are there are different issues. I'd do perlite indoor personally if I lived in an apt. Airpumps can send vibrations a long way causing noise, not unlike a fish tank but what if someone asks to see the fish?

Led would be good for indoor to supplement a lower watt HPS and still get good results.

Growing lights are simple. First do you have the colors that the plant needs? Second how much can you deliver and at what cost? Light is the energy behind growing or Photosynthesis. Each plant is wired to take what is can. We can over power and under power from the veg to flower. If you have the colors in your light then you can grow. The Blue side is the veg and the red is focused on the flower and that is just where we start. To understand this we need to understand why HPS can work. First HPS does have all of the colors. Second HPS has the ability to deliver enough of these colors. The negative of HPS is it delivers very inefficiently. It makes shit loads of heat wasting it all, but that heat also has other added benefits.

Veg is easy, you all use T5 florescent systems today because of that fact. Flower means we need power. You all use HPS because of that belief. Folks that is bull shit. Flower needs reds and it also needs stress. Define stress? Well if you’re and HPS grower your already doing that by just turning off your HPS hot spots for 12 hours allowing the plant to be shocked by the drastic changes in temperature exactly like a cold night outside in the late fall. Plants need to be shaken into their end of life cycles by something as simple as this. A plant that has no stress has no reason to make a monster bud because it has no reason to worry about seeding for the next year. LEDs are too easy on these plants and folks you just need to slap those little green bitches into a state of bud and you too will get the results all of the other LED growers that get this are.

Science is simple if only we allow ourselves to see the facts. In the defense of all the HPS folks dogging this wonderful new technology we can forgive you because all you were doing was protecting your bottom line.

Be great to each other and do me a favor and say sorry to your follow LED growing brothers.

Now get your asses out there and fond the most efficient LED light you can buy. Do us all a favor and buy USA made too. We have already given too much to the good people of China folks.

Another thing quit dogging on the salesmen. These guys are just trying to make a living just like the rest of us. Let me direct you to the best saleman of all time Jesus Christ. I want everything this guy is, was and will always be selling. Good news he forgives us all no matter what and that is for free.

I am creating this forum for a place where REAL, SEASONED, LED users can come, and help people who are wanting to get the truth about LED's. PLEASE, NO SALESMEN for LED company's dishing out biased opinions, to sale a light. Please! Lets keep it fair, honest, and un-biased so people can decide if LED's are what they need individually, and if so, what type.

Lets be honest, there are a lot of opinions out there towards this type of lighting. Sadly most of the NEGATIVE opinions are from non-LED users, and most of the POSITIVE opinions are from LED Salesmen.

If this technology is really worth trying out, then we need to talk about it. Discuss it with each other. Ask questions, Answer questions. LED's are quiet expensive, and the initial investment may scare people off, so hopefully this will be the place to come for the TRUTH, not sales gimmicks, no "Old Schoolers" dissing the thought of anything besides what they use. So please, If you have personally used a LED product, no matter what kind, we really want your opinion!

I really hope this thread explodes with information, results, and advice, so that people willing to try something new, can find quality products, and hopefully before long we can establish (if any!) what LED lights work, and which ones are complete junk. Thank you for any and all participation on your part.

So lets do this like this, when you come in to this forum, please share your results PERSONALLY. Tell us the details of your LED light (Brand, Wattage, Type, Homemade, Etc) Links to the exact unit you are using would be great so people could check them out, and maybe purchase. Most importantly your honest opinion of your results, things you liked, things you didn't, if you would recommend this to someone you know, and anything else you want to share about your particular unit.
