Its a good question ive found led and cobs can burn plants easy with heat not the issue its hard to tell whats right and its really easy to get your leds close without heat issues. I highly recommend you be cautious start high look for stretch then lower dont start to close looking for burn led and cobs are super strong and without a super expensive par meter its trial and error till you get it tuned in

thanks bro,,,thats exactly wot i,m doing,,,starting high,,,and lowering as i go,,watching for any early signs o leaf burn,,,i,m using a smaller fan also,,,i was using a 12 inch ram fan wi ma hid,s,,,but have put in ma wee 6 inch fan now,,.

in scotland,,,the heats a problem aswell,,,in the height o summer,,,trying ti keep a 1.2m tent cool,,while running a 600w hps is a freekin nightmare man,,seriously,i,m thinking the reason their burning,,,with less heat is too fast air movement over the plants,,,,i also have an oil radiator in ma groom,,,as it does get rather cold in scotland,,,and at night wen the lights are oot,,,,i set ma rad ti 22-25 degrees,,,so ma tents temps don,t fluxuate too much,,,for now i seem ti be doing ok,,plants look healthy and happy,,no sign o anythoo,,,as i will post pics in ma diary,,,an comments aboot how i,m finding things wi led,s as opposed ti hid,s,,,so hopefully,,,,others can look and see for themselves how they do.
i was sceptical at switching to led,s,,,but from what i,m reading,,,and watching on you tube,,,led,s are certainly getting much better than they were,,which is a good thing i reckon,,,,i like the fact they have uv and ir lights aswell,,,which i really like. the heat is a big player in scotland aswell,,,,,wen it,s a really hot day in summer,,,running a 600w hps trying ti keep the heat doon is a freekin nightmare,,honestly,,,thats where the led,s will hopefully help aswell,,,,,,in winter,,,i just turn up the wee oil radiator i got in ma groom,,so it,s at 22-25 degrees aw the time,,,which is good.i also read somewhere that,,,wen yer using led,s it,s a good idea ti have cal-mag on hand,,no sure why,,,must be summit ti do wi photosynthasis as the leafs need cal mag,,,but,,being a coco user,,,i always add cl-mag anyhoo,,you need it with coco,,,,,,am also tryin densitys boost for the first time aswell,,,but i aint sure wether ti add the boost wi ma pk,,,or stagger their usage and do one one feed,,,the other the next,,,what you guys think,,,av never used boost before,,,it says you can use it along wi pk,,but i aint taking any chances,,ye know wit these fkrs claims are like,,,,an i don,t wanna nute burn em,,,sod that,,,lol,,,but,,,i,ll work it oot an eventually get it all dialed in,,,wid just be good ti get a crackin grow fi this lot the noo,,,as i was on holiday,,,an this is ma first grow in a while after comin back,,,man,,,i freekin hate butin street weed aswell,,,pisses me right aff,,,10 quid a gramm,,,cheeky fkrs,,,lol,,,so am tryin ti get the best i can oot this grow,,an i always go fur quality over quantity,,,it,s ma smoke,,,i never sell ma weed,,tis mine,,,all mine,,,lol,,,man,,,,i can ramble on wen am stoned eh,,,hehehehe,,,anyhoo,,,thnx fur that bro,,,tis appreciated man,,,,peace ;-}_,

I totally hear you bro i was sceptical as well why change something that wasn't already broken? Lol and yeah the heat was always a issue. Quality is a big concern but when i looked at the trichs under magnification for the first time when switching i was sold and 600watts of draw was better than 1000w hps it was a no brainer lol

yeah man,,,

so thats ma very first led light grow in all the years i been growing,,i bought a cheap little number,,,for 38 quid,,,it was a 2000w vander life unit,,,and i must say,,i,m a convert,,,,,and heres why,

firstly,,,being an indoor grower,,,heat is an issue,,an my climate swings,,,so kepeping it normal for both is a bit o a pain,,,,but wi led,s an a oil radiator wi a sensor and setting an yer room never goes above or below the set temp,,,,as the light aint kickin oot enough heat ti heat it ti that temp,,,,basically,,,i aint fightin the eat at all this summer,,,but wi a 600w hps,,,,i,d be looking fur ways ti cool ma room doon,,,it,s only 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m ,,,,so it aint huge an heats up quickly wi a 600w hps,,,,wheras the 2000w led unit,,,am still countin on ma oil rad ti keep the room at 27,,,on a hot day the rad goes off at 27,,,an it sometimes goes ti 30,,,but thats ok,,,,,but ma point is,,,i aint fightin heat wi an led unit.

the lights are plant specific,,,so anything the plant dosn,t need,,,it dosn,t produce,,,hence the lack o heat,,,an led unit dosn,t produce the unwanted white light that produces heat,,,so theyre not as hot,,,they also have ir and uv led,s,,one helps it,s health,,,the other helps with cell divition,,so it grows faster,,.

i used a 2000w for ka first led grow,,,i don,t know the actuall wattage output,,,but judging by the results v,s wot i know a 600w red spec bulb can do wi this strain,,then im happy wi what an led,,my led unit is producing,,,and at the price,,,i,m adding a 1000w vander life to ma next fgrow,,,and topping em,,,to see how that goes,,,i reckon i,ll get a third more,,,this is the 5th time in a row i,ve grown this strain,,,i love it,,,which is just aswell,,,but i,m also trying to see what produces a higher yeild ect,,,so my next grow,,,i,ll be doing this strain again,,,but topping oce and lollipopping,,,,,so i can see how they produce under an led using that method,,,and i,ll compare that ti this grow.

see,,,it is all scientific,,,lol,,,naw it isnae,,,it,s tryin ti get the best bang fur yer buck,,,,lmao,,,,,i want ti be smokin the best weed i can grow,,,,or wots the point???????might aswell grow hay ffs,,,lol,,,,,,,,,sooo,,,anyone with any led light tips,,ie,,hight tips,,,wattage tips,,,,please lemme know man,,,i,d much appreciate any help ya can gie me on this un man,,,


peace ;-}_,
