I was looking forward to you saying how much terpier the flower from under LEDs was.. But you switched the Ol hps out early eh!! Hope they be all greasy and sticky for ya bud. Think you made a good choice..

Biggest thing I notice.. Higher quality.. bit lower density yes, but triple the terps.. I actually hate when the herb is too dense, makes it hard to separate without ruining trichs.. Decreases expansiveness..
And of course no replacing bulbs constantly.. Less expenditure on cooling and power. That's always nice too.

yeah lol i actually have 3 tents now and even with all of the setups running at full power, they consume little more power than my computer.
I am and have continued to be impressed with the LEDs. From what i've seen they have surpassed HPS with ease if you add all of the positive factors together.. not to mention i can still get the same size plants with these lights too, so i feel like i gave up nothing and gained a few $$ every month.

due to the uvb emitted by the bulb ?

Not fully sure why but it probably has something to do with things for sure. Odd enough, I've noticed a difference in brand of cmh as well. I got a 315w cmh by Sun system and it's the best by far. The 630w cmh emperor is good but I still notice a difference and wish I just grabbed the sun system version instead lol
