If the LED has cooling fans then its no good. Low Quality LED Drivers require fans. I would avoid anything like that also because its just moving parts waiting to fail.

I see that you're in the 3x3 space so my apologies on my prior recommendation.


I would go for something like this, it has Samsung Diodes and its one of the highest rated LED lights on Amazon if you filter by reviews. That light will perfectly fill a 3x3 tent at a height of 18 inches above the plants.

Mars-Hydro the growth was about 10 days slower from clone to harvest and also the plants yielded half what they do now. I'm pulling easily 22-26 ounces per/plant in a 10 gallon pot. With a perpetual garden (plants vegging in 1 room, plants blooming in another) I'm chopping down over a pound every month and I'm able to comfortably provide my patients with a couple ounces each per/mo free..

I want to get to that level one day. Couple oz free, I know your customers aren’t going anywhere! Your a good man.
 
Keep in mind if you get the newer "sunlike" led's like the one I suggested. You're going to need 5ml/gal of CalMag supplement in your water all the way into mid flower. Those lights seem to cause plants to really eat it up and you'll see rusting/yellowing on your plants otherwise. I learned the hard way. Just fired up some of the mars Hydro I have still hanging and my plants went yellow right away until I hit them with some calmag. They do recommend this as well I believe.

LED and Calmag issues.

So, there's been some correlation between using LED lights and calmag issues, particularly a lack of calcium and sometimes magnesium. I've been doing some testing with tomato plants under an LED. I was finally able to replicate the issue. Now, what I have found is that it's not really a Calmag...

Ignore Original poster he's wrong. Posting Bro Science that he learned from 1 run of growing tomatoes under an LED lol.

Great find def better, but no dimmer. Would this be too strong for seedlings?

Yup! I learned that too with my current led. My plants were yellowing so I went n got some cal mag, fixed it in one dose n a couple foliar sprays.
 
Update on plants.
Zkittles is canoeing and clawing. What should I do?

GSC is still stretching, slight canoe slight claw, but doing well.

Lemon pie is bipolar af! She gets happy and sad very easily. Slight canoe and claw as well.

Orange Sherbet is kinda small but looks really healthy except for light burn which doesn’t make sense bc it’s the smallest plant and has worst light burn.

Suggestions welcomed!!!

If your gonna grow with that light you might as well get a 400w hps. It's cheap doesn't cost much to run and get 4x the results.

I’m planning on getting a new light. I’m sending this one back bc I think it’s defective. It stopped being bright after 2 days.

Don’t know much ab hps, but from what I read seems legit. Gonna do some more research.
