LST & FIM Training under Blackstar Chrome Series LED

Deal? Please tell. I'm days from ordering another light so I would love to hear something about it. Especially something about CLW panels, which I do like, but have always been a little pricey for me.

two new led's on the way !? i just heard from the people at sunshine systems since they didn't respond for so long they offered to exchange my grow spot bloom boost led spotlight for one of their grow ufo lights its only 90w but for a supplemental light should be good. thing its only 1w led now i just have to fit all 3 lights in my cabinet?! crazy! will be bright in there. but i'm counting chickens before they are hatched don't have my solarflare or ufo in had yet so gotta wait... and wait... Monday is far away!

won't go i cabinet till later tonight when lights come on but her she is

very nice, congrats on the new led

Damn that thing is bright...........congrats! moved up to 5watters , playing with the big boys now.....

Looking forward to your initial thoughts on how it compares to your chrome.

This is gonna be interesting... Next grow, side by side, same plant, same genes, same methods?

Hey Prez, I see the toy arrived. Those 5 watt LEDs, are they using 1 or 2 chips in their LEDs? Looks like 2 but I can't be sure from the picture. Good luck with that little monster!

ya cant wait for it

the cabinet before any changes

No CFL just the blackstar chrome

SolarFlare on the Left Chrome on the Right, No CFLs, Even Hanging


uneven hang to adjust for plant height, underside of solarflare

both leds and CFL back in cabinet, removed one of the cfl lights, might remove more, temp at 81 F after 8 hours of all lights on

think the diodes are 2 3watters to come to there "5"watt diode. think they both run at almost peak...dunno how that will be for longevity..the thing about CLW that turned me off was the unit cant be taken apart. you do warranty is void.. Also if company upgrades your F****.. i think the company is legit+smart but i think they have gone about it wrong and are now seeing what they should have done.. The solarstorm with UV-B and 5watt diodes.. yea they stormed into the market FAST.. but i think unless they do some overhaul they will be gone from market FASTER then they came in. my info could be wrong about the actual power draw/diodes in there units.. i just havent seen anything with a single true 5watt diode on market. i could be wrong again here also.. But the design/workability of there units is 100% shit to me.. especially when your whole light has to be shipped off for repair if needed.. i would like a unit thats shell can progress with technology for a easier feel on my wallet. PREZ i love your grow+setup dont take any of this the wrong way.. congrats on the solarflare i want to see this thing in action..

^^^ L I K E ! ! ! a whole lot!!! your setup is really looking kickass, and your plants are beautiful... thanks for the update and congrats on your new toy!

too bad i can't LIKE, thank for sharing info Jubiare. i hadn't looked it up yet,

^^^^^this......Jubiare is right between lumigrow and CLW are the only (as of now) using REAL 5w. CLW uses high quality leds from usa and germany, a HUGE heatsink , High quality MCB(very important), and one lowDB fan(very quiet)/ ask prez how quiet it is,No secondary lenses to block lumens/etc.
Basically insuring an ACTUAL 5 year productive led output....very jealous of PREZ right now

These were just quick shots taken this morning before lights out, so they are in the cabinet and colored by led but you can really see how much the buku is blowing up, originally i had hoped to get 3oz of the blueberry and 1 1/2 oz off the buku but now i hope i can get two off the buku and the blueberry and i'll be happy
but more would be great!

Any observations on the differences of the led panels? Or too soon to tell?
Beautiful girls prez

hard to tell this late into grow with two different strains, Solarflare puts off more heat thou had to adjust my fan under her

the blueberry is ready now but i'll let her wait till the buku is good to go BB is 25% amber now



buku is close to done her leaves are just turning yellow and she's at about 7% amber
