if a company wanted a journal from me i would not do it for 50% of my money back in my opinion they should be sucking 50% of my dick if they dont want to send the panel for free ..... how the hell am i supposed to know this thing is gonna work .... and if it dosent im still stuck paying half .... no thank you. not saying anything about solar storm im sure there panels are ok havent heard to much about em but if your happy then thats a good sign
.Thanks! I rented out my good camera so I wont have it for the next week. All these vids are being shot with a Sony NX5 which is why they look different and wider angled.

Hey Wejuana it has been a long while since iv'e come back on RIU have been following your thread from start, as i haven't been active the pages have gone to 136 lol. I would like to know your results upto now from these 3 leds which has com on top? also how they comparing to HPS? in plant count are they good for full size plants or sog and scrog, would really appreciate your input, and yield info would be nice too.

Its all here dude, with detail. Enjoy the reading.
thanks i have read the recent posts to catch up, i would now like to see what they are compared to 600 watt HPS I can't wait for results. And the new black star CHROME should rock they look like a copy of the GLH, can't wait till they come on market properly and be used against other led manufactures.
I would be happy if these black stars can grow full size 3 foot plants with a good foot print, as i would like to grow 60 plants, 3 sets of 20 plants perpetual cycle, or if they not good for full size plants i hope they can cover 3 4x4 flood and drain systems.
What lights, wattage and quantity would you recommend for full size plants or SOG?

The penetration on LED's is not really suited for 3 foot plants IMO, better off with traditional SoG plant sizes. You can grow plants that size but you may find yourself lollipopping most of the under foliage anyways as it probably won't produce to your expectations. Just my 2 cents.
Hey nasar! Thanks so much for following along. To date, I have not decisively chosen a clear cut winner because each light is bringing something different to the table. When I harvest, I trim with a buddy who has no idea about the differences in growing methods to act as a blind sampler of sorts.
The comments were that as of this last round of harvest (Qrazy Train) the Spectra tent seemed to produce more turpentines and trichs, the Blackstar was much more pistils and a very high bud to leaf ratio, and the Penetrator was highest yielding, beating 2nd place by about 12 grams. I don't recall the exact weight and I didnt record it, but I pulled about 8 oz off the 3 plants. I harvested a Confidential Cheese plant out of the Penetrator tent at the same time and the one plant yielded 140 grams dry, or 5 oz on the dot!
The HPS tent is going to be harvested sometime within this next week, and it will be the first plants which I harvest out of there. I have 3 different strains coming out which I never flowered before, so I will report on yield and smoke.
It depends on the type of LED you are running in that space. Which brand were you thinking?
