Hey tty,

Sounds like a fun project. I haven't gotten into the "alternative lighting" thing yet----waiting till you guys get all the bugs worked out.

My question is:

Is there an alternative lighting method that produces the equivalent intensity and spectrum as a 1K hortilux HPS?

I've heard / read enough good things about those double ended lights-----but the heat thing is a large concern of mine.

Thanks for the summary,

A~~~

I did some research and if I was to buy a led light I think it would be a black dog led. But it's pricey.

NO! RIU friends don't let their friends buy blurple bullshit panels!

If you wanna learn about LED, don't talk about it here in Siberia, get over to the LED section on this forum and start sponging up the knowhow, seriously.

These guys are putting together some of the best panels going at any price, and the best part is they'll help you do it on the cheap!

Just start watching my thread, link in my signature line. I'm building a big array and it will be beaming some buds real soon.

I've said the same thing and was told the same thing about black dog. The guys in the led section are really big in the cob led lights.

Lol my bad. I didn't know that was a touchy subject, I guess I need to jump in the led section and do some homework, but with the cobbs do you have to build your led setup?

Anyone running a flood tray in flower? What does your veg setup look like?

I have 1 plant in a 18gal beverage bin that's filled with perlite. It doesn't fill up when the pump is on it just continually drains, all but about an inch. It works good. That's as close to a flood and drain I've ever gotten. As of right now whatever I veg my plants in is what they flower in as well.

This mess here is White Widow, Midnight Kush, Northern Lights Blue, Ice Kush, Black Valley and LA Woman. I wish I would have put a net in there before it got out of control. Then we have my Ice Bomb that I've scrogged. I didn't let it veg that long because I wanted to get something off a little quicker. There's some pretty big buds on her and she's very frosty. I'm hoping to get at least 4-5oz off her, but as we all know it's all about that dry weight.
