Do you know when these lights were produced? I bought several Spectra LEDS, based off from forum results and the lights failed by flowering miserably for me. Product support was little to none, and the company hit some hard times. It appears Spectra may have been sold to another LED investment...
Hmmmm, I'm glad you've identified this concern. Given plants definitely like the red spectrum for photosynthesis during the flowering cycle, I would be concerned as well. I guess it might depend on the lumen output and/or the wavelength of light. I do know that there are some green led lights...
Thanks for the compliments! AK is a heavy yielder and she never lets me down. I don't recall the yield on this one specifically, but I typically pull about 5-6 zips in a 7 gallon soil container with 3-4 other plants under a 600w light (perpetual in accordance with state medical laws). I could...
Genetics are very important, I agree. But cropping and topping can definitely help to maximize quality and yields "in the grow zone of the bulb you are using" with the specific strain the grower has selected, like you said. The grow zone for a bulb is not very large for maximum efficiency, i.e...
Have any of you guys tried electric ones? The investment seems significant, but it also seems like it may be worth it in the long run. Time is money, after all.
What's up 600?! Been awhile. Started lurking a couple days ago and I'm being drawn back to the crew.
Paying a trimmer is well worth it for me. I don't care that it costs me cash and/or bud. I absolutely loathe trimming! lol When I lose my trimmer, I'll either find another one or quit growing ;)
I'm confused where this thread started and where its going. Super cropping and topping are completely different techniques. That said, they do work well together to control height and increase light penetration with indoor growing. They're also very useful outdoors to promote quality yields and...
They will come back if you don't keep spraying even without any evidence of those little fuxors. I'm battling them now as well. They worked their way in with the heat spell we had earlier this year and I've dropped 5-6 bombs and sprayed the plants and boxes 12-15 times. Still have some but...
