Quick picture dump from week 5. The fluffy looking hairy buds are the Arctic Fallout. Looks like they;ll go a good two weeks more than ARC. Some blurry lights off pics thrown in there too lol:

Yes this particular run is all LEDs. The ones before this were under HPS + LED combo.

The ones in previous grows were under GLH Spectra 2010 LEDs, and 1000w HPS Plant Max bulb.

This grow I'm using these new 2013 growelution.com panels x2. They are only ~130w each. So its close to a 250w grow.

That should be growevolution.com
very interesting lamp.
Not getting more affordable though.
$400 for a 130W unit? Ouch.

Yea thanks. Didn't notice the typo. And that is indeed pretty steep IMO. But honestly, I've seen more expensive lamps for less wattage. Check out Illumitex Neosol LS. It's a 50w lamp for $350!!. It's the killer technology that is costing so much. Just depends on how useful and important low heat, high intensity/PAR lighting is to the individual. Personally, I could not afford to keep a grow cool using HID lighting in my environment. Running A/C in my place brings up the electric bill a good $50/month. I'll gladly pay the extra cost for LEDs up front, and spare myself the $50 each month, not including the cost of replacement bulbs and yada yada yada. Same old thing all LED users preach, but it's a fact, they can indeed save you money in the long run. It's the up front cost that hurts!
