Just a quick update to let you know we aren't dead ; we are waiting for our new medical grow permit so we can start test 2. We'll post an update as soon as we are able to start the new grow.

We haven't had any problems with penetration. We did notice at the beginning that we could (should) move the plants closer together to maximize light at the height we are using. We are going very conservative at this stage on distance from the plants -- later we will play with rising a bit to...

Hey everyone. Sorry for the delay in getting back with the final results and the start for test 2. We were enjoying a bit of a holiday. As you may remember Test 1 suffered a few screw-ups on our part : - 60 hours less light for the LED test than the HPS test due to technical problems...

I don,t know the supplier you are referring to. Do they manufacture or just sell? What light would you be talking about since we did look at most of them.

Nope. Just a humble grower trying to get better.

No doubt it is expensive for somebody doing a little home grow who already has their equipment, but if you pay your electricity bill and buy your bulbs, than it is worth it. That is why it is important for us to test this properly. We grow medical on a license that gives us a fixed number of...

We aren't insulted, we are just trying to do real LED tests and benefit from people's advice as we try to refine the grow techniques. The proof is in the pudding as they say, and so far we are quite optimistic. However, we would love to have some help on some of our questions rather than simple...

Yes they are expensive now, but the point is that the electricity bill you pay each month and the bulbs you change every year or two aren't cheap either. With our calculations, they will pay for themselves in under two years in less power to run the lights and the air con and in no bulbs. The...

They were always under the LEDs. We are doing this test to figure out whether it will be worth it to switch all of our production over to LED.

It is definitely expensive upfront, but by our calculations we will pay-off the cost difference in under two years, something like a year and a half in reduced electricity to light and to cool and no need to buy bulbs. The lifespan is around 11 years. So once we get the details worked out, we...

Hi guys, there’s been a lot of talk about growing with LEDs in the past year and we finally took the plunge after doing a bit of research so I thought I’d share some of our results so far. First, we went with the TI-Smartbar from Theoreme Innovation. After looking into the various lights...
