oooo, expensive but looks nice. i'd be interested to see what penetration etc is like from those.

pricing aside, all you EVER hear is how LED's are shit, i think partly because of the pricing though. i'll be wide eyed following this :)

only thing i've always wondered, is i've seen the top of the panels, they have 8-10 80mm grills, under each of which is an 80mm i believe, cooling fan, and while it's thermostatically controlled, i know my 80mm cooling fans, and they can get LOUD, i used to have to pay around £6-8 a go for the good quiet 80mm fans

cant say as im much of a clapton fan hem mate, not for any great reason than my folks didnt listen to it, i get a lot of my taste in older music than my generation was around for from the folks. t rex 70's glam rock, the stones paint it black is my favourite song of all time. man that shit has an energy all of its own you just dont get that from todays bands.

I have to say thats all ive heard aswell ttt man but in truth hps is cheaper and hotter if you have heat issues they are for you. the tech has come a hell of a long way in the last couple of years.

everyone should check out this grow https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/300296-irish-boys-glh-600w-led.html

the lads basically pulled 4.5 oz each from 4 girls under a 600 w LED. but only snag he has never run a 600w hps so guess what when i start up again in the new place im going to do a 600w hps scrog with 4 plants then when ive got some scratch up ill but the panel and do clones of the same plants in the exact same scrog setup. i reckon the yeild will be pretty much the same maybe a little less but for the trade off in heat ill take that.

yeah i hear the concern man i know pretty much the same from my living room pc, a quiet fan is a must but if i can puty the whole setup in the loft and not fear the FLIR cam then who the fuck cares if theres a gentle hum coming from the loft.

my fan in the tent sounded like a jumbo jet and the downstairs neighbours have never complained.

its a lot of money to drop on a light but when i think about what i spend on drink n drugs a grand on a light is a shroud investment hahah IF it works

I just checked out irishboys grow and thats pretty impressive for L.E.D's, defo worth thinking about

actually...I don't know...they are from sunlight sheds...90 watt each 7-1-1 red, blue, orange...very bright..I'll attach a pic.. they work awesome though. I think that sunlight shed sell them for $200 each....mine came with the Caddy...so far I am supper happy with it, a few mods here and there and extra cfls.

For your Review Mr Don




Again for your review Sir
started this legal indoor grow in Cali. This is my first time grow with LED's. At this point is purely for fun just to see how everything works out. Unfortunately time was not recorded but I know the rough estimates of when things began.

Using 2 Different USA Made LED's:
Tri-band = 632nm
Dual-band = 637nm

I tried using CHINA made lights worst idea ever. Nearly killed all my plants. For anyone considering using LED's Make sure you do your research.
now some pics :weed:

yeah i had a good look through it and from what i gather its all about gettin the right leds. there is
alot of bad stigma around them

there is that but seems if you do the homework n get a tried n tested one the results are there to be had. its just finding a reputable company that isnt going to charge me all four limbs for the fucking panel. not many places do a 600w and the ones ive seen are pretty shady looking websites. im actually thinking of getting 2 x 300w now bout £1120 :( :( :(

cheers for the info man, im pretty sure i want to go with them now i need to find a uk company that wants to prove their shit!!! a sponsored test grow like irish is going to be hard to come by in the uk i bet...

this weekend i went back to the gorilla garden, to discover that someone, i presume the farmer we saw when we cut through a field of sheep to go and plant them has been and chopped them off. though he only found 2 of the 4, and one of those 2 had black spots on the leaves :( but apart from that they looked good.

so i didnt plant the rest i was giving extra veg to just chucked them over a fence into a ditch and left sharpish. i wanted to plant them but my pal rightly said well if the farmer saw us first time round hes just seen us again and could have been ringing the old bill. so we left rapidly.

i probably shouldnt go back to them now, i probably will though haha i reckon another 6-7weeks, ill do a commando mission one night and see if any of them make it! fingers crossed.

I'd leave em well alone mate, I heard of the old bill leaving the plants alive and setting up motion triggered cameras to nab you. I think thats in the states though. You could send a 'mate' lol

i doubt the old bill would go to those lengths where i was, there's more danger of the farmer and a hot rice/ shotgun.
