I love your bud porn 6! its so delish. your garden looks so fuckin aweome dude! Your buds are looking so amazing..I really like how your light has all the different colors in it, its so cool. .Are you by chance taking notice of your electric bills running HPS vs LED and the cost savings? im really curious how much you can save running LEDS. and how much cooler is your room or tent with your leds vs HPS. That glass tube your holding looks kinda like a bong filled with herb. what are those buttons for? llolol.
Hey Ambz!! Thanks for the kind words. Will be busting out the digi this weekend to see if I can get some good glamour shots in this round. First off, as far as energy consumption, I've never ran a 250W HPS before so I have no experience there. I've ran 200+ watts of cfl's on a plant before and that was a pain to keep cool. I yielded a nice little 2oz plant of some fine fine Pre-98 Bubba bagseed. Running the same with LEDs (200+ watts), I'll surely get more than 2oz, and the heat is actually less to deal with than cfl's. So I'd imagine heat is significantly less than a 250w HPS and ballast. As for cooling, LED lit environments can be kept in the mid 80's, rather than mid 70's like HID lit environments. So no extra cooling has been needed from me. I try to keep my house in the mid 70's ambient temp as is, and the LED grow cab doesn't get hotter than 87 degrees. So with a single 160 cfm booster fan for exhaust I can keep temps in check. I'm sure I'm saving in electricity and acknowledge that, but I rarely take note or brag about it at all lol.
Edit- Forgot to add, yes that tube was made by my glass blower friend from a tube used to make bongs. I told him to make me a BHO tube, he felt it was too plain, so he added the marble and buttons to it. Just for design really, but it works for grip too you can say lol.
