I been growing a 600watt hps. I payed almost nothing for the lumigrow. My real question will be should I continue to grow with hps or switch over to the lumigrow.That light is now obsolete. Like a carb as opposed to EFI. The tech is several years old. Cree and vero cob based lights are a much better value. Much more and proper light for way less cash. Cob LEDs and Philips cdm are where to go if you wish to grow!
I really hate blurple!
we never got to see a true run of these here, all suddenly ended...........one of the lumigrow reps here showed some pics of commercial ops crushing it with these fixtures.I been growing a 600watt hps.

I'll I'm just trying get as much info before I do. I plan to grow 4 plants with scrog in a 4x4 space. Grow space is 6x6 but I like the space to walk around them.we never got to see a true run of these here, all suddenly ended...........one of the lumigrow reps here showed some pics of commercial ops crushing it with these fixtures.
if you payed little to nothing for it I say you try it and journal it here...........definitely has the output, just coverage is worrying from such a small casing..
i been looking in to leds for the last 6 months. There is a lot of a lot of bad information about them it's hard to make a decision.Give it a shot! It won't yield less, it is a high quality light, just not the newest tech. You will find a lot to like with LEDs. Pay attention on this forum, you'll do fine with them. Better quality results are probable with the lumigrow. Besides, trying new things is fun.
How high is your ceiling?I'll I'm just trying get as much info before I do. I plan to grow 4 plants with scrog in a 4x4 space. Grow space is 6x6 but I like the space to walk around them.
I been thinking about that.As it is a quality and capable light and your investment to KNOW how it works is negligible, go hang it up and plug it in. You do have room for a side by side even. I would find a way to use it. LEDs really do work.
9 feetI have some Pro 325 which is half of a Pro 650.

I'll need to run two home runs so the breaker won't overload the system. Have every light on its on breaker. I'm thinking on just turning one of my guess bedroom in to my grow space. 10x10 area will be much easier to work with.As it is a quality and capable light and your investment to KNOW how it works is negligible, go hang it up and plug it in.

From the research I done for lumigrow the 350 coverers 2x2 area. I'm guessing the 650 should cover 4x4. How many plants did you have under the 350? I'm currently running 6 under the 600 in 3 gallon pots. I think it's to much, the strain I'm growing double its size in pre flowering.I have 7.5ft ceiling and last grow I put the dimming pots at 12 o'clock which is 190W from the wall. The Pro 325 grows good bud, I had a luminaire for each plant. The plants were about 1.5ft x 2ft x 6 feet tall.
I'm really pissed at Lumigrow for staying with sleeve bearing fans over the years. If you run it, you better have one or two 24VDC 92mm x 25mm fans as spares.
I'd switch over to the Lumigrow from 600HPS but you likely won't have as much coverage.
I put up a journal at opengrow.com under the name "ledfoot".
I love having an entire bedroom to flower in.
That's make doubt the 650 on holding 4 plantsI just had one plant per light but they were dimmed and mixed in with the older blue ES series of Lumigrow.
Did you get any feedback/updates from Oneshot's commercial led op (300+ lumi pro 650) in MA? can't seem to find anythingHey-o. We wrapped a webinar with a commercial cultivator last month. They're using Pro 650 High Voltage fixtures. There's some good info in recording.
Here are the webinar highlights:
• Dr. Hopper and Dr. Wheatley are seeing improved cannabinoid production profiles under LEDs.
• Silver State Relief has 3 lighting scenarios: all LED, all HPS and checkerboard LED and HPS.
• The aggregate yield for the facility is 1.5 lbs per fixture.
• Lighting electricity costs were reduced by 43% in the all-LED rooms.
• Cooling costs in the all-LED rooms were reduced by 58%.
• Cannabis strains respond differently to various spectrums.
• Experiments with adjustable spectrums are underway to optimize cloning, vegetative, flowering and mothering.
You can find the webinar on the LumiGrow website.
