Cool man I'm glad to hear you're seriously considering LEDs! I love mine and I'm pretty sure with enough watts you can get buds the size of Foster cans without an issue. I literally just started growing, so don't think that the lights I'm using can't produce any better. I didn't even know how to transplant the clones when I got them!!
Would you be interested in replacing 1 of your 1,000s with LEDs or are you trying to switch all of them at once? My buddy knows the owner of the LED company I'm using, and I'm sure he'd give you a great deal on a bunch of the units I'm using with a free frame to test out if he heard how many lights you're looking to switch over. I've seen a guy getting the same yield as his 1,000 with 400watts of these LEDs so they definitely pay themselves off pretty damn quick. Let me know if you're interested, I'd be happy to link you up with him because he'll give me my next order of lights even cheaper than last time! Cheers Jack!
