36 Watts Led Grow In Action Again!!!:)
- Thread starter tm21thc
- Start date
:
I'm thinking of getting that ufo high intensity led light from htg for my next grow. I'm just wondering about heat. I don't think it will cause a lot of heat so I shouldn't need too much ventilation I hope.

yeah listen to tm21thc, he might have an LED setup - but he's wise enough to know those LEDs wont do shit for flowering. ive been skeptically following this thread, and i still dont think those things are anywhere near as good as a 1000watt, or even a 400watt. the technology isnt at a point where it would be beneficial to use these things, if anyone disagrees then show me flower pics w/ LEDs.
mj89, dont waste $600 on a piece of garbage. you can get a 400watt hps for $119 at HTGSupply.com and grow weed 10x better/bigger.
mdgtptrl, how can you be hooked considering all youve seen are veg pics of sprouts?..

Because i've been doing a lot of research into LED growing and have been following as many LED grows as I can...

Grower, keep this thread updated. Im interested myself as to what you can accomplish. Very curious to see flowering and how they do. I am still going to buy a 400watt like my next check but it's cool that your doing good through this stage, im with the other guys though I dont know how effective flowering will be, but we will see!
The one thing i like, is the fact that theyre doing great now. They have a deep color and the tips are perfect. You have possibly a great grow on your hands, just treat it right. I dunno though I would go buy a 400watt just in case things start to go downhill.
But kudos though, excellent grow and I wish you luck. If it works, we may have to rethink some things ahaha.. good luck!

cfls are good for starting cost wise and they actually will flower a plant. why not use those?

5mm LEDS are a waste of time for flowering/budding (insuffucuent photon flux density). Here's 36 watts in a shoe box using some five watt LEDs.

How do yo know its garbage? I havent seen anyone with one have you? I already have other lights including a 400 watt hps. My electric bill is sky high and I was looking for ways to combat it. 600 bucks is like nothing if you think about it. You'll make that money back in savings your first or second grow.

id have to agree with munch on this one blue is good for keeping the nodes close together and makes good stem thinkness to support heavy buds those seedlings look to elongated and strung out best to use daylightbulbs high blue content floros for seedlings clones get the lights right down on then lik half inch to an inch away and you have thinker busher heather ladies once your stems elongate is a bitch to fix the error night moster to btw but ive seen some half that tall and twice as bushy

thats pretty decent result. How much did the whole setup cost, and how much for just one lamp?
