Best LED Light for Small Tent Setup (36in x 36in x 64in - DarkStreet II)
Hey all,
I've been doing research on which full spectrum LED light to go with. Does anybody have any first hand knowledge they would be willing to share and explain please ? I'm only looking to grow 1-4 plants tops, for personal use I've already decided to use LEDs, so no use trying to dissuade me. Please help, any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

The Fullest spectrum LED out would be Amare Tech. They have a few lights not on the web-site yet so if you like them, your best bet would be to e-mail. The owner will help you personally.
Feel free to stop by my thread if you have any questions for me about my experience.
Good luck!

Lots of lights much the same, right down to the look of site. Might not be the worst new China light but there are better options that are advertised right here.

Thanks guys. I was deciding between the platinum led P300, the california light works 220w, or MARS hydro II... Any opinion on those, or any suggesting to a better alternative? Im only looking for 3-4 plants maximum (for personal use only, I'm looking for the highest quality buds for my budget not to make profit) and I'm looking to drop no more than $500 on some LED lights (not looking at HID or solely CFL or T5) Also I'm considering supplementing with T5 or CFL fixtures (prob for flower, maybe both depending on my cashflow) looking for any and all experienced opinions please. I know I've posted in the wrong spot but if anybody feels like helping the kid out, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Peace.

Hello everyone, has anyone had any experience with galaxy hydro? I'm considering buying the 300 watt LED for a 2x2x4 area. I will only be growing one plant for now. Thanks for your time

hey dude from what i learned so far 300w led in a 2x2 should be good for 1 plant im using about the same size but 3ftx17incx5ft if your using 300w i suggest you get the the marshydro 300w in my opinion from other growers ive seen small grow tent 300w mars is a solid buy if youre on a budget its 1 of the best bang for bucks for under 100 bucks

When you plug the leds in do you plug the cord straight into the outlet? Does anyone use extension cords if the cord isnt long enough?
