I was seriously considering one of those UFO lights a couple months ago based on the same claims that you mentioned seeing as how I was using a 400HPS at the time. I figured if it was equal to what I was using and draws 1/4 the electricity, how could I go wrong? I started a thread asking opinions of them and the claims are BS is what I learned from it. I did hear that they work pretty good for veg and as secondary lighting in flower. I thik the main thing with them is the coverage area and not the intensity of light. They're prety intense on their own but are small and don't spread the light very far.got a few things from the hydro store yesturday! 90W UFO for the vegg room, i guess they have the same out put as a 400w HPS/MH so im puttin that to the test!.. also a few more advanced nutes..big bud,rhino skin,and final phase...and a few bags of FF light warrior!..once m y bubbas r done (2 weeks maybe 3 weeks) i'll start flowering my sharks breath under the 600!
ur not a dummy,im glad u got the 600w hid instead!..ive heard good,and bad anout LED's...a buddy of mine had 1 90w ufo ina 4x4 hydro hut veggin 16 plants and they were all healthy as fuck!..that sold me rite there..he aslo told me they suck for flowering..atleast with just 1 it does...but as for vegg i guess they work amazing...i do plan on trying to flower 1 or 2 small plants with it in the summer when i take my 600 down.. HTG supply is where i got my stuff it was 150$ for the ufo..i got a black one with the 3 fans ontopI was seriously considering one of those UFO lights a couple months ago based on the same claims that you mentioned seeing as how I was using a 400HPS at the time.

I even almost bought 2 of them instead of my 600 and in hindsight, might have a better way to go for me since I would've been going down in power usage instead of up. HTG Supply had them on a pretty good sale at the time so I could've got both of them for just a little more than what the 600 cost me. Me being the dummy I am, ended up getting two 600s instead, LOL.
Who knows, I may still end up going LED at some point and downsizing my grow. It won't be anytime soon though, haha. Lovin' the way my room loks right now too much. I just need to get more work so I can afford the elec bill from all these lights .
wendy is an interesting thing.
random bagseed sprouted in a windowsill left for what ever to happen to it to happen. i just watched it for about a week. it was born with mutated leaves but now shes(fingers crossed) a cutie.
shes been under the 600 now for about 2-3 weeks in the wendys cup pot where she'll stay. i plan on LSTng her. i wanna have something like a big (relatively speaking) ganja afro lookin plant.
shes young and small but takes same strength nutes as the big girls. i give wendy whaaatever theyre having. and no burn.
ive got a buddy that now uses the pure blend pro grow, bloom, and liquid karma along with the fox farm solubles for bud boost. from what ive seen its great stuff and the liquid karma seems to produce real healthy growth and thicker stems. ive been wanting to get one of those 3 packs and do it on a few of my plants as well. my buddy doesnt carefully measure his nutes and leaves them around for a few days mixd in water so it seems to be pretty forgiving and not to hard to work with. hydro store guy said they definetely compete with advanced line of basics but they need a bloom booster.Does anyone use botanicare's pure blend pro line of nutrients? I seem to recall reading in one of my bibles that botanicare is supposed to be really good for a sativa grow. Anyway I bought a sample pack last year that included pure blend pro grow and bloom and liquid karma. I started giving casey jones and headband some grow a few days ago. What I did not realize is that the pure blend pro line is organic, no mineral salts to harm your girls.
Anyone?
I can't take credit for this recipe but, if you like apples or apple pie, you'll love this stuff.
My in-laws call it Apple Brown Betty but I'm not sure why. Anyway, I'll be making some with cannabutter this weekend as long as I really have kicked the infection that's been kicking my arse. Actually have cannabutter brewing in the crockpot as I type in anticipation of making this stuff.
Hopefully the attachment will open big enough to be able to read it.
