LED= waste of time, for a couple different reasons. One is they don’t have what it takes to create a strong plant, and two they are way over priced, and people shouldn’t worry about what a 1000 watt light is going to cost to run. The bill isn’t going to be astronomical because of one light, and if you just sold an oz of your stuff a month that would cover the bill and then some.

you got heat to deal with too though. I agree that first generation led's are a waste, but from experience of using them (good ones) I will be switching as price comes down. The first few types made didnt work for shit.

But they do make more of a usiable light spectrum for plants.

to each his/her own. to each there own.

I agree for flowering with LED, it does not have the punch.

However I am seeing significant benefit for Vegetative Growth:
*Strong seedling growth with tight internode spacing
*Less room Heat
*Better ability to punch up humidity in veg cabinet due to less required venting.
UFO 90 watt cost less than 4x4ft t5 florescent
*Cool purple mood light.
*No bulb replacment

Not useless I don't think, but they have their use. Covers 2 veg units nicely.

Have you guys seen the Lumigrow? It looks so cool to me - the LED I want to start with. They were close to 2K upon release, and then down to $1600, and now I see they have dialed it in a bit more and they sent me a supposed 'special' via email for $1299. Anyway, I would love to get some feedback from those of you actually using LED lighting.

To Stinkbud and all his disciples (Dirt, Lion, Aero, SOG, Dago, Andy, Robot, TX, TH, Matty, Shrike and any others I may have missed, (like the Gypsy guy who made things interesting)...lol

I want to thank each and everyone of you for you contributions to this thread. I just capped off almost two months of gardening research, over the past 2 weeks, reading this entire thread. All I can say is WOW! When I started my research, I was so confused by all the different options. After reading this thread, there is NO question which system I will be implementing.

The climate on this thread is amazing. I feel like I know some of you already by reading your posts. I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you more.

Grow room construction begins tomorrow as I await my patient card from the state.

Thanks again especially to Stinkbud for starting this thread and the disciples that keep it alive. Will post progress soon.

Peace

ok this last harvest was a great one.......no doubt
knew it was a great yield.......but wow
it was too heavy for my small micro scale so i got my bakers scale (since im unemployed i figured i wouldnt need it at a job i dont have lol)
its 1 pound and 6 ounces.....22 oz taken off of half of a 600 hps or 300 used hps watts ...i have 2 stinkbud systems under each 600 hps...16-20 or 8-10 each unit
wow.........620 grams off of 300 watts is almost 2.06 grams per watt....
holy shit
pics of some of the biggest buds//////up close pics///////box of buds////scale pics---before and after
enjoy and tell me what u think of my transformation from coco at .3 grams per watt to .4 dwc to 2.0 aero + botanicare nutes + co2 and romulus genetics
these are 10 + weeks of 12/12

Holy crap that's a nice yield! Romulan is a good yielder eh? Not a bad smoke either, had some few weeks back, very smooth in taste and high was top notch.

You in the SD area by chance?

Was this your first run with co2? Amazing man... got me pumped about going co2!

So do you think these veg'ers are ready for the flower room, or should I hold off another week?

Also, Any one have any thoughts on the tipping issue I am having? (second pic)

I forgot to ask. I have enormous root balls at the end of my roots from resting inside the veg unit. Any suggestions on how to get them out? Can I just cut the big ball off? What about squeezing it to try to fit it through when I move to bloom room?

Any thoughts appreciated... Previous fellow said "just trim it bro" but I wanted to be sure that "trimming" is the correct thing in this specific case, as when I check SB's pics, his roots never seem to be this bulky in veg unit https://www.rollitup.org/marijuana-pics/index.php?n=20572 for instance

IMHO - More than ready! Once in the flower rack, the tipping issue will be a non-issue!
