hehe... you see in this picture, this is how I had the diamond, well if I would not have been waiting for other lights, I was to set it on the left edge of the dresser (kind of where the UFO is on the picture) and hopefully have a better light coverage. but as it is in the picture, it was about 12-14 inches from the screen and I find that the main of the light was focusing between my 2 plants, not enough light to the back and the front of the dresser, and it was too long to put it sideways,...another foot higher and it would have been perfect! Unless your 1x1 square is high enough for you to put the light 24 inches above canopy and if you put mylar all around then it might be wicked. The diamond runs cooler than any other light I have so far (UFOs, blackstar). sorry for the long not so clear reply, thats the best I can do this morning!!

Checking out the 120w extreme veg too, its got a 10x10in physical size so I would have to assume it's got the coverage area but does the all blues really work??????

I would say they are probably awesome for vegging... looking at the plant right under my ufo BLUE 5th generation, I would say it does an awesome job in vegging, I can only see the advance blue being better than the UFO... but who knows

With LEDs you gotta find out for yourself... if you dont mind spending a little bit of money... so much false claim all over the internet. I just got my Blackstar 240 and it's bright, looks like an ok light... but I am not too impressed when I look inside the light,I can see big mess of silicone at 3 different place, I am hoping this was not a mistake (that silicone is suppose to be there ... still should be put on more professionally). I ll have the light up and running but I will keep an eye on it for a while. I believe the lightt will give good result but it's not A1 assembly...

Spectra:



Blackstar:



Penetrator:



Full sized Bic used to show scale. It tripped me out because the lighter looked red in the Blackstar/Penetrator tent. It's intense what the different hue of the different lights does to colors

pretty ordinary if they are the biggest buds you have to show on day 31 of a 55 day strain

why cant you show the whole plants ? what are you trying to hide ?

@max - I always try to shoot average sized bud sites, none pictured are the biggest bud site.
@leogets - lol nothing at all because I have nothing to prove.

My 60mm lens broke so all I have to shoot with is my macro currently.. my new lens should be arriving anytime though and ill get some full shots and video updates posted asap. In the meanwhile my intention was to take shots of the same buds for multiple days in a row so I could post them eventually in one thread showing the progress.

The buds have been through a little troubled times though and i noticed hairs turning red during. There is a lot of new white pistil growth coming out.. as far as time of harvest though I go on trichs and they are all still clear as water currently so I am expecting to go longer than 10 days more lol.

with so many fake and one sided grow offs around about leds whats to stop you or anyone from deliberatly skewing it to a brand you get discounts from to generate buisness an gain kick backs

happens more then you think and no just with leds

Yes leogets, this is not the first time that has been brought up on this thread. People have informed on numerous people in the past who have done shady things on led grows in the past.

I would understand questioning and disbelief in my claims if it was something unusual, such as harvesting a pound per plant.. but usually skeptics at least wait until a claim is made before being skeptical. lol. I have not yet harvested.

As I see it, your logic that previous shady LED growers have any way to correlate with me LED growing is like saying if my plants have Mg deficiency, your plants will have Mg deficiency. It just doesn't work like that because there is just no correlation between my plants and your plants like there is none between the other growers and me.

And to add this.. if anything and my results were skewed at this point, it would be negatively because they have been having nute issues. I dare not hope you would think I would purposely negatively taint my personal medicine?
