Ive been using hps and hid lights on my grows but suffer with heat so was thinking of changing to led and done some research on them and from what ive seen opinions vary, people say quality is better with led but yields are less and i come across alot of conflicting information, so before i spend a small fortune on new led's im wondering if anyone has first hand experience ?

it all balances out, in my opinion. you can replace 400 watts of hps with 250 watts of quantum boards and get 90% of the yield, it'll get ready up to two weeks faster, and the quality will be as good or better,

Same again i not heard of these but just did a quick google search and checked reviews and they sound the dogs bollocks but it says st the moment theres 1 supplier and there completely out of stock, any chance of some pics to see exactly what it is and how it works as the site didnt really explain or i didnt understand lol probably the latter

IMO: build a COB



in my opinion consider building a 'Circuit on Board' or a DIY LED(light emitting diode light)

I had a quick look for member 'realstyles' thread but is gone

Was just reading up on the quantum boards and in foing so it mentioned cob and they reckon quantum boards are better, im gonna do abit of research on both, i thought led was the new shit but shows what i no obviously im new to growing, thankyou for taking the time to pass the knowledge lol top man

possibly, it just means someone copied and pasted your entry, could be in any goofy thread they want to put it in
i'm a bit of a do it yourself kind of person, look at pictures in that thread, look for the pink frames.(a joke that backfired on me)
i would definitely buy from HLG, just kind of liking learning how to do this new stuff on my own.(on my own with a friend whos very good at it to pester with my asinine questions)

DON'T buy mars. you may have to wait a little while to get an order filled but you'll get a ten times better product going with any of the member/advertisers on this site, for a better price
I planned on them because id watched a few reviews and thought they would be best, but no danger of that now you told me about them, i was getting excited about getting the mars i planned but now its gone up a level ha, sent a email asking when it be possible to get some just waiting to hear
