I'm about to post some pics of the clones table for some eye candy before I chop them at the end of the week. This table has about 28 clones on it grown under a 600w hps.
 
Almighty, I admire your patience with some of these people..Pot plants, like people, are ever evolving...Growers, however, typically do not like to evolve. They stick with what "has worked for them". Keep up the progression! We all know each has its benefits/downsides..THANK YOU for the comparison and good luck in the future!!

You said it best man.

Truth is I dont think anyone here was expecting any kind of performance from the LED lights in comparison to the HPS lights especially considering the major difference in output. Im greatful that someone took the time to even spend there own money and effort to do this experiment. Instead of being negative or Pro HPS or Pro LED, we should all take this experiment into perspective and really change the game and impliment new styles of growing. Remember, at the end of the day this is still a science and things dont move forward without the winds of change. I personally encourage the LED market now seeing as they have performed this well thus far. Can you imagine if there was a Zero heat true 1000w LED:mrgreen: that would be a pretty intense comparison.

Great grow, props!

Check out Desert Hydro for the LED lights...and SHHHH...they have 900w and 1800w panels available in like a week...PM me if anyone is interested. They won't hit the open market for a while.
 
Sub+rep. Thank you for putting your time into this experiment. I am also doing a LED grow, but I am mixing in T5s to help with lower buds and overall spectrum balance.
So far, my veg plants are bushy and strong, growing incredibly thick under 90w UFO and 50w UFO. Got Jamaican Grape, SLH, Wht Rhino, Pineapple Exp, and Church.
My separate flower tent has a 300w LED + 2 T5 fixtures.
I would like to post some of the pics, let me know if thats cool.

Hey Guys, Be sure to check your Lights out carefully, I bought two 300w LED's off and ebay seller, and when I plugged them in I found out they were only 150w on 110v, now I'm going to have to get an up converter to 220v just to fix that issue...
