Sexy.
I'm speechless
Yes the efficiency should change over the grow cycleOn paper close. but I have not started my measurements yet, just got them installed.
I'm interested to see what happens since there are separate channels / drivers, you probably will not be running at max on any of them. That should theoretically improve efficiency. We shall see.
Yeah I think that footprint and width is going to be nearly perfect. Should be interesting to see what it does Moe
I'll be in the basement all weekend finishing this build out. You know how to find meYeah im very interested too @Moe.Red next time we chat i have a few ideas to further complicate your life lol. Well not really just some spectral ratio ideas for your new toys
I really should do a better job with glasses that is not said around here enough. Good reminder. I think I use safety squints way too often.Yeah I think that footprint and width is going to be nearly perfect. Should be interesting to see what it does Moe
Protect your eyes always.
Agree and it's cumulative over time. Make sure your getting proper full darkness at night alsoI really should do a better job with glasses that is not said around here enough. Good reminder. I think I use safety squints way too often.
Love ya man you always take it to a deeper level.Agree and it's cumulative over time. Make sure your getting proper full darkness at night also
We're all creatures of light believe it or not and it's probably of primary concern for regulation of many higher brain function and other metabolic function... Not just protection of our

Quality LED’s for the win ! LolUnder 2 gavita 1700e and still 8 more plants to pull down at that point. There are loads of examples all over many forums, IG and the likes of the garbage social media. Its hard to debate anymore… LED out produces HID by a huge margin gram per watt.
The thread in the link is a total of about 6.5 lbs in a 4x8 from about 1200 watts of LED just over tge wattage of a 1000w HPS which is the highest yielding HID. Cant say i have ever seen a grow that pulls over 6 lb from a 1k HPS or even close for that matter
Not many commercial guys that arent getting 3 lb per light under LED these days

last grow in 4x4 4 plants natural - no net, in 2 gallon soil ,under hlg 650 I got 705 grams and I never had the light at 100% and the plants were held back ! I’m pretty certain I could do 3lbs under 1 light at at least close to it! No good pics of the end product sorry this was prolly week 7 ish of 11View attachment 1259753View attachment 1259754View attachment 1259757View attachment 1259756
Thank you Aqua! You've always been very helpful!
I do have to question 6.5 there? Being I haven't weight a yield in years, it very well might be?
For a comparison, let me post a typical yield I'll get off a 600 w hps. I usually flower out the mother once I'm done with testing
a cultivar. To me my cultivar appears to have yielded in that ballpark? Key word "appears".
This is a 1 plant scrog yield off 1, 4x4 Botanicare table. I probably should weigh em going forward.
Again 1 plant under a single 600 hps using the cheapy $30 Ipower bulb lol
Excellent quality, and I'm fairly certain I hit over 2 with the 600 in a really inefficient XXXL air cooled hood?
Apologies for the poor photography,
NICE lights! Hps who what? Lmao
I’m jealous. I’ve never grown outside. Illegal here. But so want to.
That paper posted above has the detailsSo full spectrum blue leaning veg, full spectrum red leaning early mid flower and high blue mod red and low green finish… thats my thoughts but im not saying why lol
Haven’t red that yet but i will in the next few days… im assuming it contains some if the same info i have read elsewhereThat paper posted above has the details
Not bad. Hlg 600 3000k used to give me 2-2.5 in my 4x4 with co2 depending on genetics with 3 week vegIdk about kwph to grams of dispensary quality im getting, but i get a lb easily out of my 4x4s with a 1000w hps. I veg under led, might try mh though cause why not. Anyways it seems ill easily get a lb out of this tent if I used 4 plants and flip them at 3 week veg. If I use one plant ill get the same weight, but it will take 2 weeks longer due to verging for supercropping.
The cost is like 180 for setup, 30 per year in bulbs. . and near the same cost per month as an led that will get the same yield.
Im in the process of adding co2, so expect these numbers to skyrocket lol. . just these fucking modular homes used trim to cover the ceilings drywall joins instead of tape and mud. Meaning are escapes. I have foam. . anyways. .
If ya aint heard me say it yet. A hid setup will pay for its first grow.. . after its first grow.
