I have gone back to my t5 in veg and clones. I have not found a led veg light that I like. I also use my 315 3mh but it is too much to just keep mothers. The t5 bulbs suck still but the lush green and slower growth are worth it.The REAL QUESTION HERE is - How many of you that have switched from T5's to LED's are 100% satisfied with the Plant Health under the LED's vs what you were used to under T5??
I totally agree for clones. I haven't has as good of luck with LED's.
I have two HLG 350r in boxes because I thought they could go in my mother tent at 50% or less. They fried my mothers took them out five days after install. Money sitting in a box(I use them in flower and they are excellent lights).
I spoke to hlg they nicely agreed with my finding lol. The lights are too much. I considered buying a par meter but then common sense kicked in and went back to healthy slow growth lush greenplants with t5.
You can download a free LUX meter for your phone. They'll give you a decent idea.
for veg? yes, %100 happy with led. my seedlings and clones don't like them much though.The REAL QUESTION HERE is - How many of you that have switched from T5's to LED's are 100% satisfied with the Plant Health under the LED's vs what you were used to under T5??
what are you running them at? the QB fried mine
I run my male tent with t5I had faster growth with the T5's than the LED without any leaf issues. I use the 6500k 54 watt high output bulbs though not the 8-24 watt shop bulbs.
