hps and led

Hi everyone, This will be my second grow. Last grow I used a 400w HPS cooltube, and received a free 3000w bestva LED. I'm wondering if the led would be worth using over the HPS? I know that it's not 3000 actual watts, but it's pretty close to the same actual wattage of the HPS. I'm in a 2x4x5...

So i'm growing 9 clones at the moment that i cut from my previous grow, strain is Gelat OG from seedsman. Since 3 weeks, they re now 6,5 weeks old and are on day 11 12/12 with buds starting to form nicely. I've already read that combining HPS and LED will work just fine and it sure seems like...

Would 4 of these: (50w COB led ufo) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TSGZCKD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_XJ3MKDW4H5GSVJF6239Q?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 On top of a 600w HPS be able to flower 4 plants in a 5x5.

Backstory: Been out of the game for quite a few years now. I used to grow and smoke a lot until I moved into a new house. I stopped growing shortly after that and had a kid, life moved on and my growing days stayed in the past. (Fast forward 6 years) One day whilst cleaning the house a...

Hi all....Can someone please clarify this for us regarding 5x10 rdwc flower gardens in rooms,,not tents. Question#1...What's the sweet spot for quality LED per sqft for flower? (Wth, for veg too)? I've heard 36-50 watts per square foot,,but as you can see, that's a wide range. I guess ppfd is...

Hey guys, this is my first post on RIU, been following for a while now but never posted before. So, just started my first grow, small scale: 2x WW's in 10 liter (aprox. 3ga) Hempys, DR 90 tent (3x3ft) and got the TS1000 for budget reasons, as I just wanted to try out a grow, see how it goes and...

Hi everybody, I wanted to ask if somebody more experienced than me know this kind of staff. Right now I have a 400w HPS light for 3*3feet grow tent. I was wondering how much LED I need to get same or similar results. I was looking at HollandStar light which is advertised as 1800w and I think it...

hello everyone, Prior to today I was an LED grower, but today I made the choice to add a 600w HPS light to my grow room. I know they can be really good combined (LED And HPS) But I’m not entirely sure how the lights should be setup together. I have a ballast with the light that is also capable...
