i know my light is a problem. and it sucks cause i didnt know crap about lights lol. all i saw was oh cool 300w led light but really nope. only 100w and at the moment i cant do anything. but for the rest of my cycle im just gonna use plain ph water. and bud candy? besides 7+8 just water. and see what i get. this is my first plant.i appreciate all your guys help. and recommendation on led lights when buuing. amazon links would help

Honest mistake that most everyone has made in some form or fashion. Simple inexperience. At least you learned from it. I'll be honest with you, I would highly recommend one of the spyder farmer qb style lights. Already built for you, cheap in the world of lights, and pound for pound will kill any blurple from Amazon at the same or more price. Look em up and save up. Best move you can make. Unless you're a diy guy, then by all means build you a quantum board setup. That and some reflective material and you're on your way. Good luck to you, hit me up if you ever have any questions or need some help. I love talking this stuff.

Keep that light for the mother. It would be perfect for it.

As for recommendations I like the hlg quantum boards but if you asking about Amazon. This light would kill a 2x2

Let me see if we can get @Buzzer777 or @Mr.jiujitsu in here these guys can help ya with too notch budget versions of quantum boards. Also kingbright is another I have heard good things about.

No no... You don't need and tbh if a light has a veg and bloom switch that's the first indication you don't want it.

This is the light I use.

Take a look around at quantum Board grows. They are one of the best lighting options on the market today. Also seen several people using the kingbright quantum boards in the Alibaba link. Samsung 301 diodes and meanwell hlg drivers.

I don't take many pics for reasons but the first pic was may 29th and the second pic was June 12. Like 2 weeks growth. Although I am in hydro.

Correct, you don't need that feature, is worthless. Just a gimmick. Think about the power you are running now, use those buttons and you cut that little wattage in half.

In all honesty, I also began LED's with Meizhi Burples. They grew good weed, but the white light grow way better weed; so I sold my Meizhi(s) off on Ebay while the getting was good. My 1st "white" light was a Nextlight Mini that cost a boatload, and was the model that HLG used to knock off..the rest is history.

I still have a high end burple in the center of 2x Kingbrites (Unitfarm UFO80 with Cree chips). It was a free light for testing and it does seem to add something to the grow. It only draws 175 watts and Unitfarm does not overstate the power either. (I check everything with a kill-o-watt meter ($21usd) you can see the burple tones in this shot)

basscaptain · Oct 23, 2019

+1000% on Buzz and these lights
I have 4 diff models and you can't go wrong with them

basscaptain · Oct 23, 2019

atthis point any extra light will help you so add whatever you got... to finish the run..... Take up old boy with his ofter for a 2nd light..........

YinYang420 · Oct 23, 2019

yeah they will get bigger if you keep feeding them and if theres a store you can get a cheap t5 i would add one itll really beef up your buds for not that much more $

Buzzer777 · Oct 23, 2019

And a more recent but infamous bathtub grow..LMAO (3000k and 2700k white HLG mix)

I got lucky and for whatever reason I went the COB route. You can dive.down the rabbit hole on Amazon looking at lights. Also on Alibaba, they have QB's and COB lights at good prices. They can be hard to deal with at times. Their QB are much cheaper than HLG for basicly the same thing.

There are lots of threads here about white lights..Everything from HLG to Kingbrite from Alibaba. I run them both + others.

There are many threads on the farm discussing light in great detail! All I can say for sure is at some level there is a light for every condition. I have 3 grows under my belt and am ready for a better light for sure! ( I use 2 recordence lights at about 500 true watts ) sorry side tracked,
Really what I wanna say is results don’t lie look at some of these guys pulls with LED ! Buzzer has great hail there! And there are countless others here at the farm that get exceptional quality and quantity from led lighting ! It’s just different than what your used to! May b you don’t really understand the way they work?
In the end use what works for you!! Happy gardening
