Hey guys, I just found this thread. I am on my first grow and after months of lighting research I settled on the Sun System 315 LEC. My plants have only been under it for 4 days (previously under 4x4' t5 HO). So far Im loving it, it feels very nice and comfortable in the grow area and the plants seem to be loving it. I have it in a 3.5'x4.5'x10'T closet, temps stay consistant at 75-78F with no heat exhause vents. I will be adding vents this week though for the warmer months.
Growing White Widow x 2, White Cookies x 2, Purple Kush x 2, and 2 mystery bagseed plants.
Light is at 21" for the 2 large, and 24" from the 6 small.

Im still adding to the room, so any suggestions are welcome. Ill be adding something to the bare wood floor to reduce chances of mold (tarp or some kind of plastic). Also need to do some elctrical work to clean it up a bit.

You need a drain tray for sure to keep moisture off floor. Maybe transplant the babies in larger pots or get a plastic container to sit them on to bring them up even with large. Just what I might do. Love the light nice

Thanks Pig. I plan on doing the floor soon here. Ill probably just get a tarp or something and cut/staple it down and come up a few inches from the ground on the walls to completely waterproof it. I do live in a very dry climate though which requires a humidifier running 18/6 with the lights to just keep the humidity within 45-50% so Im not overly concerned about mold or rotting until I move to larger pots.

Hell ya man. Are you replacing watt for watt? Or close so 3 315w, 945w per 1000?

First grow and jumped in with a 315 in a 3x3. Temp inside litterally runs 3 degrees warmer then the room(closet) it's sitting in. With the 6in fan set to low. I think 206cfm. I can put my hand on top of the hood after 10 hours of it being on.

I'm loving this light and glad I grabbed it. Pics are 18 days into flower
Good spot to share 315w info. Been running 2 of them perpetual for close to 2 years now. They rock watt-for-watt against hps, typically about 25% more weight, and quality is better than hps imo. My son was a die hard hps grower until he saw what I was getting with these Sun Systems LEC's. We converted his grow watt-for-watt with these LEC's and he's been consistently pulling 25-30% more weight and is very happy with the quality. He just bought another 10 units for his expansion, no going back to hps for him if that tells you anything. I just swapped out one of the units to see how 3590 COBs stack against the LEC's but the LEC's aren't going away, will likely run a combo of COBs/LEC through summer and LEC's through the winter.

Rhino, welcome to the forum man. I have also only been on here for a few days now. As far as online forums go the people here seem to be pretty helpful.
To quote someone elses post and add your own text just hit the "reply" button at the bottom of their post.
To post pictures, just hit the "upload a file" button ar the bottom of where your typing your post and it will have you select a file from your computer/phone. Ive also see people post photos using what looks like html in their actual posts instead of attaching as a file to the bottom. This is done by using an html code linking to a 3rd party file hosting site such as photobucket/flikr.
I am using an iphone, but I imagine the options would be similar or identical on a pc.
