Hey all! Looking for a LED for full cycle in a 3x3 and was looking into the SpiderFarmer SE3000 but anytime I find a grow with it the grower had it SENT TO THEM FOR FREE!!!

Anyone grow with this light and produce dank sticky buds? I don’t care about yield just quality and potency.

Any other contenders I should check out for a 3x3 tent?

Quality and potency has very little to do with your choice of lights. Any of the new leds or HID work good.

Really? I figured the intensity and spectrum had a lot to do with bringing out the potential of the plant. I just don’t like to upgrade, so want to buy once and not be held back by minor inadequacies in the future, once I reach the level of growing where it matters more. But as its probably obvious...I‘m as green as they come so probably misunderstanding a lot of aspects. What are your thoughts on this light? SE3000 for personal grow?

Intensity and spectrum mostly affect quantity. Quality and potency not so much. A $150 MH or HPS will produce just as potent weed as a $1000 LED. The SE3000 should be more than enough for most personal grows.

Sounds like a language translation problem. Flower needs more not less light.
When I asked which light would be best for a 3x3 without considering quantity the response was


Hello,

If you need grow all stage,we suggest SF2000.
If you only need veg,you could consider SE3000 or SE5000.”

Ask the question in Chinese. Or assume they meant flower only not veg. Customer service is not their strong suit.

This is my 3x3 tent with a 300 watt {other brand} Led VERY similar to the Spider Farmer SE3000, you will have a quality grow and harvest with the SE3000 , if you have the bit extra money then go for the SE5000 instead, that's what I'm trying out next I think.

Now I’m being told by SF that the SF2000 is better for all stage grow “including flower” and SE3000 and SE5000 are more suited for veg. Sheesh, maybe I should rethink this brand.

I'll like to think I have a decent grasp on LED but before I answer and break this down for ya. Go back and read @growsince79 first few posts because that's solid info he gave you in intensity and spectrum.

So plain and simple you will want the SF3000. It will provide just a bit more light than you will be able to give the plants in full flower. At 300w in a 3x3 you have 9sqft. At 30w/sqft (9sqft x 30w =270w) with that efficiency you will have more than needed or atleast maxing them out at 270w. The SF3000 is 300w and will allow you to run slightly lower than max in full flower increasing efficiency a touch and running the light a bit cooler.

Hands down the right choice is the 3000. The 2000 may get ya by and the 5000 or 7000 are way over kill even if running co2

Agreed if you ever plan to upgrade you tent to say a 4x4 or more I'd buy a higher wattage light since they can be dimmed and that way you don't have to buy another light if you upgrade in the future.

I think I’ll pull the trigger. Thanks for the help, to you and everyone else helping out! I’m loading my carts right now so just one side question which I can’t seem to find...do I need an Intake fan along with my exhaust? I’m going with the AC Infinity 6” with the control67 (temp/humidity controller) but not sure if I need an intake fan too?
