This 30L capacity 3L/h Humidifier is a beast, it has been serving me really well for the last 3 months, i use it only at first gear and it just works beautifully. Tuya automated for different times of day.

And latest addition co2 setup, the lovely carbon juice :-)

So,would you recommend switching?I have a 2-1 metre tent right now but I always have problems getting to the bottom branches so get a lot of popcorn buds!Im going bigger in April to a 2-3 metre tent but I’m unsure wether to get 2 x 600w hps or get some LEDs!What do you think would be best?I live in Scotland so it gets pretty hot in ju/ju/august time!I grow at any time,doesn’t bother me!Did you switch and if so,how have you found it yourself?Thanks bud!🇬🇧💯💪🏻
Led for sure I'm also in the 🇬🇧 and I grow no probs with led , Get yourself a scrog net and trim/train your plants for max light penetration ,That will get rid of all those 🍿 buds

where’s @Trash_2002
Hey there my friend! I'm Alive and well, getting my med cultivation permit ready this year, lets hope for a fast judge decision so i can have peace of mind.
Was a bit of a crazy start of year tho.
Got back to the roots and semi oldschool methods.
Vegging with the flexstars Leds and flowering with MH/HPS 1000watters
Didn't quite liked flowering with leds, very incosistent for me and I didn't adapted truly/fully to the tecnology.
Good quality and stuff but yeilds and bud formation not on par with expectations.

New Setup maybe in the future i will trow a flexstar LED panel between the HID's but for now will run it solo.
Mh hps setup


Sour Ripper x Bubba Kush 10 days 12/12

Hey Trash, totally get the LED learning curve. Running dual spectrum with HPS/MH is still solid - lots of commercial ops still swear by them for flower. Those yield differences you're seeing are usually down to PPFD mapping and height adjustments - LEDs need different spacing than HID. Your hybrid approach mixing one LED panel with HIDs is smart for testing. For those strains you're running, watch the stretch on that Bubba cross - she typically wants more headroom in early flower.

yep the bubba cross is a stretcher for sure; i was humbled by LEDs tryout tho, but the expressions and bud formation with HID's i still prefer. I measured ppfds with LEDs to match what i can throw at them with HID's, but they couldn't handle it even when transpiration and leave surface temperature was match to hps setups, they were never too happy in my tries, i have quite a bit of experience but couldn't quite dial in LED's flowering to my liking, plant growth and health response flowering with LEDs were VERY inconsistent in my room.

They stretch quite a bit more for sure with HPS but the metabolism is trough the roof they just love "hot and dry" witch is very easy to accomplish with HID's, to me it resembles much more how they respond to the Sun outside, burning gas plasma, in my mind the missing extended spectrum over 800nm that HIDs have is a big difference, witch the sun have even more and the plants respond positively to it promptly.
