Led Light Advice

I'm considering the switch in my bloom room so that'd justify that purchase. Right now I just walk in veg and set them to 75% and hang them pretty high above the plants, say 3 feet or so.. Temps stay a stable 77-80 lights on 70-72 lights off and I've got a Quest 110 keeping it at 55% humidity in there.

Not to thread jack but 1 thing I noticed with LEDs in bloom is huge loss in yield and smaller little hard buds that ends up not justifying the cost savings. I'm a caregiver so I've got many people I provide concentrates & flower to and can't really risk losing yield. I'll probably switch a row out for them and see what happens. I've got 2 x 5'x20' canopies.

That's not been my experience.

Had more pictures of a couple of other crops but an accident resulted in a lost phone. However I STRONGLY recommend using a meter. LED is nothing like HID for distance or intensity. Totally different ballgame.

Good luck, looks like a high-quality light, but 300w, that's a lot of heat/light in a small area.

Ended up getting the 75x75x200 budbox tent, the light is dimmable so can always turn it down and the extra wattage will do for heat through out the winter I'm hoping :D . Also gives me the option of going bigger with the tent on my next run.

What size fan and filter would you recommend? Thanks
