**ULTIMATE LED TEST** *GLH Spectra 290* VS *Blackstar 500* VS *Hydro Grow LED 336X*

Oh man, That really sucks. No apologies necessary I'm sure it's real frustrating to go through all that work just to lose it. Been there done that.

Looking forward to the results, Your thread is definitely one of my favorites.

Thanks you! I appreciate that sincerely!

^^^^^this.............................the best led comparison thread on RIU............be safe/happy growing
 
Thank you! It makes it all worth while that there are people who appreciate the thread and updates!

Things are drying quickly so weight will be posted within the next couple days!
 
I dont think its sold yet, just the ad for it

Yeah, I just looked it up and the company is still listed for a quarter mil buy it now. In this economy the listing may be up there for a while, but then again it only takes one person with the want, will and cash.
 
what comes with 250000$ ? anybody with that kind of cash can just start a new company, it's not like they would be buying a great reputation
 
Round 3 results are in!
Each tent had 1 plant of Aurora Indica.

YIELDS:

Penetrator - 51.4 g
Blackstar - 54.8 g
Spectra - 48.1 g
HPS - 59.7 g

Remember, the strain genetics weren't the best so I was expecting lower yields and I am pretty impressed with these yields for how the plants looked as far as bud amount.

Here is an update video of how things are looking in the garden

Grats on another harvest. You must be doing something right, I couldn't get my LED's to flower for shit. Good luck with the next!

Thank you! I think it takes a few rounds to dial in specifically for LED's, but now that I have it, I was able to get away with LED and HPS tents both on the same nute regiment and both flourishing.
 
It appears Mike and GLH are no more

Fucking asshole. Fuck him and Irishboy (i noticed his ass has disappeared).

I haven't been on the forums recently because I've been busy, but so much for his 5 year warranty. I've been dealing with lack luster results from the GLHs for 3 grows now and now have burned out LEDs. I emailed Mike and he said it was a bad power supply. I have the 2011 290w and never got the turned down power supplies. I asked him to replace the lights and he said it was a bad power supply so he sends me 2 power supplies. I experiment with the new power supplies one by one and it still didn't fix the burned out LEDs. So now I'm stuck with two piece of shit $700 lights and a worthless warranty claim.

I have 2 of the 240 watt Blackstars and they are SHIT. Waste of money.

I've had good luck with bs so far could be your environment or nutes?

Replacing all ten power supplies on my 2 290's still burned plants, just delayed it a couple weeks, so I understand the frustration. I'm gonna try to do some vegging with them, or supplemental light for the 1000's. We'll see. I don't have very high hopes.

Either way, I still like seeing the results WeJuana. Thanks for keeping it up. :clap:

I just grew a 2 3+oz plants and one 4oz plant under blackstars - got over 2oz off of a 1.5' tall plant. I assure you they are not shit. You need to reevaluate your technique.
