durin the day tepm is bout 75-80 at night about 65-68.. one thing i did change was i lowered my humid level back down to 35-40 dont think that caused it though... i check for mites and webbs and everything rooms pretty clean cleaner than my bedroom lol...

and ya as far as fedex the company outta newyork i got the lights from for some reason works threw fedex.. this is the second light ive gotten broken and i think he overnited me one on a personal ups account lol but ya fukfedex....

and for leds lol welll to be honest this is my first grow ever like ever never even fucked around with tryin to grow before.. but i have seen alot of houses filled and closet grows or bedroom grows n person... i got kids n the house other wise my bro would let me grow in the whole upstairs which still has a good chance in the near future of happenin.. but for my grow box i didnt wanna worry about havin great ventilation and stuff so i tryed goin with the leds i found the right spectrums and for only 200bucks a pop.. so ill have 3 in total by flower so ill have 6plnts under 3ufo's... but to sum it up before i do a bigger grow down the road with bigger setup etc... depending on how the leds work after a couple grows ill know if ill want to use them when i upgrade to the upstairs and buy more leds or ill know if there no bueno and get some other lights.... but right now i do i have 2cfls in threre over the bigger plant on 1side cuz i got that led pretty concentrated on the babies

If I was you I would just say screw it for that cost and run all 1000W HPS/MH convertable lights for a bigger grow. I mean 200 bucks a pop for ufo's is outrageous with that little coverage.

Ya I hear ya but the grow box Ibuilt idnt think I could fit 3 hps/mh and then I'd have to drop what ever it cost for ventilation coolin just a lot more shit to setup and dnt have the space but while I experiment with the leds and get a couple grows under me and then if I can get the upstairs its like 800sqft lol so if the leds fail me when I upgrade to the upsrairs outta my 4x4 box ill def run the hps/mh but if I do get some pretty good results with the leds lol imma go balls out with em in that 800sqft room.. But personally this first grow idnt exspect to much ill give my full honest opinion on the lights after my second grow cuz if I fuck somethin its not gonna matter its a fucked up plant under a led or hps ya knw but I feel these leds r legit that they or at least where I got my lights they had there shit down tested varites bout from other companies and tested and came up with the best one so I rolled with...

Just enjoy your LED and do not compare it with HPS or MH .It has some good features in long run.Just do not comapare a BMW with a truck .they are in different leagues with different purposes.

damn, they broke your replacement light too for the one they broke b4? thats some shit bro! as for the leafs looking a lil curly my first thought was it kinda looked like heat, but if its only 80 it shouldnt be the problem, how hot is it inbetween the light and the plant? can you keep your hand under it for a few minutes and still feel fine?

ya and i just found out today cuz i didnt get the 3rd replacement one yet but he sent it fedex again and thats where its gettin broke unless he would be sendin out broken lights which i strongly believe hes not.. so hopefully this one works out or im tell him i want a free light or ill send u back the two broken ones and one good one and give me my money and then i might have to display his service on the web... but to be honest i dont know what the temp is between the lights and the plants but ive been raisin the light a little and its probley 6inches higher and the babys on are fast-track lol... but the little yellow i dot i figured out was i drip some water on accident when i went to go get the big one and i think the water stayed and the light just burned right through the water spot... i havent changed anything different from day1 and there are no more dots and none of the other babys had em so im hope and guess it that was the problem..

I will try to pop in on your grow, man, I have been dying to see what an LED can do.

I am a new grower, so I do not have a lot of experience and cannot really give too much advice, but these pics right here got me excited.

Keep it up!

looks good my first grow was low budget like that.
experiment around but i would say either way your going to be upgrading to the big boy lights soon.
always a great investment. i was bummed with the fluffy bud and low weight i got with cfls :(
