Yeah I just saw v2 boards somewhere when I was looking. I just ordered 2 of the hlg100 with the drivers n all together. I just want to see how bright they really are.

I'm running 30W/sqr' in a 2x2.5x2.5' veg box and when plants come within 4" from lights they start bitching.

Are these fixtures worth even messing with for someone wanting to try a LED? Serious discount, seems attractive for a first time LED purchase.

Ok question for you @sixstring. 4x4 grow space and I have purchased the HLG600-V2 3000k. I get the feeling I won't benefit from adding any more red/far red based on the spectrum of the 301B 3000k diodes does this seem reasonable to assume? But I will definitely need to supplement UVA/B and was thinking that adding 2-25w 36" reptisun 10.0 that claim to be effective at 20" would be my best option. I am fairly confident this would be adequate but as a new grower I would definitely value your opinion on it.

The price per lumen or PAR watt has really dropped in the last few years with COBs and Quantum Boards. I bought anArea 51 R/W 75 watt panel for $170 over 4 years agp. Today 135 watt Quantum Boards can be had for that!

This is exactly what I'm mentally wrestling with... My system is exactly like yours except I'm running another 6 COBs in a 4x8 tent. I would love to make strategic changes without wasting a ton of money on equipment and energy costs. My last run is going to come in at roughly 2 pounds from 6 plants(I'll know the exact figure next week)... can I up that number by simply adding/enhancing the lighting ... I don't know...
Click to expand...
is that two pounds wet or dry? That's probably a stupid question.
