Simply just place your opinion in order of scale say 1-led, 2-cmh, 3-hps and leave us alone to discuss the rest other than who runs the best or what poundage you pull.
Good come back.... Rep++
In that order
See how easy that was, we can keep your conversation to limited bullet points whilst the rest have a more 'indepth' conversation thusly avoiding talking to those who merely want to rank lights
I've noticed most of the bashing is coming from people using LED's and calling people that use HPS relics, stuck in the past, and other nasty things. I'll take my $150 HPS and run with it before I spend what they are charging for decent LED's. I'm growing pot not chasing technology.
Well we did troll them off in the blurple days so lets call it even
Op asked what LED to put against his hps. He already knows how good hps performs! The whole point of the thread is to suggest different lighting. You not see the title of the thread? Just bashing ppl who don't agree with you. You said cmh. That's still No. 2 on your scale that you suggested lolSee how easy that was, we can keep your conversation to limited bullet points whilst the rest have a more 'indepth' conversation thusly avoiding talking to those who merely want to rank lights
I thought i had a good discussion with the op on what realistic results could be v the effort and cost and the fact he's already rolling some nice plants out already.
My scale was hypothetical, i dont care what the best is on a board that seems not to have proved a darn thing by showing countless grows with each light and combo.
the op will do what every led promoter does grows under hps but takes pics with the led going saying how good it is then back under the hps till the next lot of pics
Ok. Agreed. Go for what you know and kill it any way you know how, whether hps, cmh, led, or other. But trying different lighting tech gets expensive, I understandMy scale was hypothetical, i dont care what the best is on a board that seems not to have proved a darn thing by showing countless grows with each light and combo.
Now some may argue this and some that, any gains are negligable (could have spelt that wrong too) imo i can tell who will win in a ferrari against a scooter but led cmh hps i couldnt even guess sorry.
You seemed to have some inner knowkedge, if leds were that good it would be a far simpler discussion dont ya think
Thats what your boy did and he got called on it. Now where is he?
I miss envirolites, i dont really want to run hps or led or cmh but thats my choices so any will technically do for around a similar yeild.
Actually I think the only thing LED’s have over HPS at this point is their affordability, but only long term. I paid probably 200-300$ more In 600w LED instead of a quality 1000w HPS, but my energy costs are 60% less. The production is about the same, very slight edge to HPS in my opinion but not worth the cost, plus you can get 1700k LED’s that have excellent red/orange light for flowering, which I’ve yet to add and try out. 900w of LED is pretty unfair to compare then at that point.
Haha. Okay.
Yes there was a debate a while back between white leds or coloured - they seem to be making a small come back with some aalthough 90% of grows still look purple here.
