are you using only the ufos for flowering ?
Looking good bro. I like the way the light makes the plants look. Really cool. I imagine it looks a hell of a lot cooler accutally standing in there. How bright is it on the eyes? Or what about light penetration. I know my 400w shines through the closet like a space shuttle is about to land lol.
thanx man, I'm new to this site and I noticed theres a cfl club, a 250-400w hps club, and so on.One thing I immediately noticed is that these clubs are a good place for the prospective grower to obtain vital info.I wouldnt even know how to get started but would anyone be interested in starting an ongoing thread to compile all this info. If for nothing else, to steer the poor eager technophiles that we are away from the shitty products that litter the web?So I was gonna post this last night, but I was shrooming, and wasn't in the mood to type. BF, thats a awesome little LED set up you've got, your plants look beautiful man. I'm sure Yours are gonna be right behind them LIttlegrower!1
ok so i will be following this very closely i have been growin with leds but only as supplumental lighting..But i am also using some of the solid blue leds for the clone box.These seem to be pretty damn good.Soon going to be investing in the ufo. ok edit... I forgot to ask you a couple questions last time i posted.. How much stretching is happening with the ufo's and the other question is roughly how far does the light penetrate through the canopy
The plants I grew were small sog types the tallest was 20 inches, and a couple of clones that stopped growing at six inches, and then blew out to the size of a softball-weird. I kept the ufo about 6 inches above the canopy- with the sattelite system around the ufo, the light was beaming down very intensely, but even without the satellite, from my limited experience, I'd say 2 feet, or at least 2 feet of penetration.The deep 660nm reds, I believe, have taken care of the stretching issues people had with the earlier units. Also in the earlier experiments people were hanging these things 2 feet above 10 plants, and expecting ten pounds. I had no problem with stretching with my method.And I cant stress enough the importance of sub canopy lighting, hang some far red bulbs down into the garden. In other words light that fucker up. peace btw-check out my gallery if you get the time
