Yeah, we'll see if you post it. Oh, and welcome 1st time poster who definitely isn't a shill and isn't selling LED's.

LOL You called it.

I'm really interested also. I just saw a few pics of someone doing an LED grow and maybe they were using bagseed cause it sure wasn't very impressive.

I'd love it if I could set up a small led to keep a mum happy.

Oh man, LED's are the shit for vegging. A friend of mine kept his GIANT Bubba Kush mother around under LEd's for a long time. Easy as shit, no heat and the growth is good. It's the flowering with LED's where it falls real flat.

I don't want everyone to start posting links to journals where people veg with LED's, I know that works. And those LED posts don't get under my skin, it's only the ones from people selling LED's and claiming they get more bud with 126w of LED than a 400w HPS or even that 400w LED is greater than 400w HPS.

I actually hope it's true, but to be honest I've only seen the posts from sellers and the ones that don't come off as sellers seem to just "disappear". I think the OP's either fail or don't want to show the results. Those with realistic expectations come on to and they show their less than great results, but at least they keep it real and provide us with the TRUTH.

I welcome the day I'm proven wrong because that means we've finally arrived. But I'm so jaded on the subject that I tend to actually ignore these posts now. Can't get all excited every time a sales person comes on and tries to sell you something.

I would leave to if everyone jumped my ass. Hell everyone get sick if all you hear is nagging. Worst than a bunch of ol women knitting is what alot of you whine ass sound like. Why dont you sit back and let someone finish a good test, hell you dont have to buy the damn thing for looking.

And this journal falls off, it seems as if he got bored? I don't see any updates.

And not to discredit this, but your cola's arent extremely impressive. They look healthy
and yes they look tasty, but the arguement is that you can produce the same quality,
WHILE producing similar weights, how many grams per watt are you harvesting.

You mean these super-impressive plants? I know they aren't done, but I asked for links to grows with IMPRESSIVE results. You gave me a link where this is the most up to date picture? What the fuck are these? I dont' want to waste my time growin' shit that looks like this! Especially if I'm spending WAYYYYY too much money on the equipment in the first place. This just solidifies my argument.

I don't think Rumple will be touting how great LED's are when this is done. He doesn't seem to to do that in his journal. So I guess the question is answered for me and LED's still don't do the job. I'll check in on another LED thread in about 6 months. I'll check every 6 months for the next 20 years because when they become viable, I WILL jump onboard. I don't just sit around drinking the hatorade, I want this shit to happen faster.

But these kinda plants? It's looking pretty far behind an HPS at this point. I would incoropate them in veg, but my T5HO's really kick their asses too. They generate heat, but plenty of light and plenty of coverage for a helluva lot less cost.

Did you even see how Rumple grows his stuff normally? He is an HPS guy and produces some of the best shit I have seen. He does not say much is because he is testing the lights because the company sent them to him to show people what they can do. Like I said before if you are so against LED's then why even look. What just so you can piss people off so they dont finish their journals because if the lights do prove good buds that will hurt your HPS sales. You guys are starting to sound like a broken record. Has any LED tester come out and say buy my light to you? Most of them I have read Say TEST, not buy my light. I say watch all the threads on LED if you dont like it DONT BUY IT. Myself grow with 4 1000w HPS and I am tired of paying electric and dealing with heat. Here is a picture of my HPS set-up.
We harvest this coming week-end. We lost 2 plants due to heat, one of lines was blocked and we did not catch it in time. So talk talk crap just sit back and see which one does the best and then if you want to buy, BUY. Hell one of my Bro. is even producing pretty good with CFL's. Enough of me whining. Is this thread DEAD?

I don't really know why you are here anyway. All I asked for was a link to a complete grow journal with impressive results if anyone could provide that. I made an observation that the LED journals and vids seem to be posted by those selling LED lights OR they die off prematurely.

I appreciate the link to Rumple's grow, hopefully he finishes out the journal as I'm sure it will prove useful information. As for your affliction with LED's, I'm still looking for a COMPLETE grow journal showing impressive results. So if anyone has any, please link as that would be great. I'll follow this grow, and I watched the videos (although with great bias due to the fact that this a seller here). I never hated on LED's, I'm just looking for the info, I think you've got it twisted.

I just get tired of see people start bashing anything before it is even done. If my 2 lights (LED) dont do anything this time I'll try something different and if that does not work they will hang in my garage. I need better light there to build my Rigid Bike. Sorry if I jump anyone ass myself I want to see a complete grow and it just seems like people gets sick of all the bashing and the thread gets lost just like this one has. So again sorry.

i agree, its very childesh and disrespectfull for people to start bashing somones thread because of the way they grow, if you dont like it then dont waist ur time posting on that thread. so it just tells me its all about the drama like a high school kid. but haters will be haters. who care if they own a company? so know they cant post a grow because of that?

I never made any comments about your grow, the pics I posted weren't of your plants.

I never said that those selling lights shouldn't post journals, all I asked was if anyone else noticed the same trend that I do. The people posting journals are selling lights or the thread just dies off. I didn't mean to start anything, I was GENUINELY looking for a complete journal and particularly some impressive ones.

i took it at you talking about my thread when you quoted a comment earler when the person was talking about my grow. i thought you were saying my plants were looking like shit when you quoted that comment that somone posted about my grow.

. ive growen out doors and with HID for a long time, and i wont say leds are better then HID untill i see it with my own eyes or atleast alot of random people geting great results. but i will say i am inpressed with what i see so far on my grow with the amount of watts i am using, but wont put all my eggs into my baket befor they hatch. i hope these leds do work good for me because i lose plants from heat stress with my HPS because it gets so hot were i live. i understand what ur saying about a led sales person and their growes. but i still like to see them. even though its hard to belive because its somone trying to sale lights to make money, but if they dont show off their lights then no one would buy them and we would never know what lights work or not.

i dont have any impresive led journals to show you that are already done and arnt led sales persons, my last grow wasnt too impresive because i got spider mites and they tore up my plants. when i havest i will be sure to let you know how these lights did for me.

lol. its all good, i took it the wrong way. you are getting beat up over here because this is a led gange turff. lol.

the reason you are getting beat up is because you sound like ur talking down on leds and people that are growing them weather you ment that or not. its best to just wait untill all of these led test are done. their are alot of people testing new leds that havent been tested yet.

God dammit. I can't make up my mind.
DWC 600watt hps?
Hydro 600hps?
Soil 600hps?
Led 200 watts? More? Less?

This is not a thread invasion lol.
I just read the 4 pages, felt I should bring something to the table.

Some LED grows have shown to be pretty impressive lately.
