Hi all and thank you in advance for taking the time to read and share your experience.
I am growing in a 1.2x1.2m tent with a 600w MH/HPS with a cooling glass tube and wings. I am looking into raising the wattage to close to a 1000 while adding an LED. I have done enough research on the subject and decided to go with Optics over Amares SE350+UV. My only concern is how discrete shipping is. Can anybody share with us how his/her optic LED arrives? Was it in the original factory box or was it the original box placed inside another shipping box? Does the original box have pics of buds orMJ plants or mention growing and flowers and buds etc? Basically I need to know if the box will trigger any suspicion when the light is delivered to me internationally!
Thanks again everybody
Ask them to bubble wrap the SHIT out of it, I'm still out a light because of shitty QC.

I got it today. It was packaged very well. There was a pillow underneath against the COBs. The light was wrapped with bubble wrap all around and the big box was filled with Styrofoam. No marking or anything about a grow light on the box outside.
I fired it up to see if it works since i may not use it til I flip my lights to flower. Well, just that quick check, I think its going to outperform my 600w HID .... the light was very bright even without the lenses on!
Anyway thanks everyone ;-)

Just stick with your HID lighting these LEDs are over priced and produce less than your 600w HPS will.

Bonjour
What kind of led/cob do/did you run?
And why are you so sure about this?
How much do you produce? (How many days total vegg + flo?)
Have a great day ★

Yes the price is just stupid, with hps its much easier to grow then it is with led. The only problem I have with hps is the heat.
Bonjour
Could you please tell me why it is easier to grow with hps?
What kind of led did you use?
What was the problem?
I have cxb and no problems till now (I also have a 600hps) and there's a lot less heat than with the hps...so!
Have a great day ★
