and realistically the next week is just keepin em alive and strengthening em... the differences in the lights most likely will not surface until those babies are getting strong into veg mode... your test is very fair no worries bro

thank you. i can tell you know what ur doing. and hope we all learn somthing from this grow. we will find out all the diff from each light as we go along, kinda like the hight deal, i learnd alot from watching them both under each light. total differnce is the lights. ive only used pro source lights for leds and i havent messed up a grow yet with their leds.

Hey Im glad your testing but leds are the worse lights you can use. I suggest fluorescent for vegging. Youll only get scrawny buds with leds if it lives long enuff lol sorry but I predict you will stop posting pics after they start to go sick lookin on ya. Get ya a 6500k and a 7800k bulb for veggin dude. Plus rep for tryin though Ill check in later.

i agree that cfl's do veg good, infact i ust to use a 126w compact cfl. but if you look at my other grow thread you can see i had so beer can buds, they only thing that runied my last grow was spider mites and 100F temps their whole life..
these were also sativas. an i only used 90w led ufo for veg and the first 5 weeks of flowering then put them uder one 180w ufo. the pics of the plants haging isnt all of the bud either, i lost alot of weed from the mites webing them up. those mites killed my plants fast mean little f%*kers they are.

They look nice but I think a hps light would have made bigger buds but then again they put out lots of heat. Ive seen fluorescent buds that turned out like yours maybe a tad more fluffy. But for vegging youll never convince me.

no way a tad more fluffy? i have know fluff on my led bud. cfl i always get fluff, cant convence me ive grow with all lights. i am not saying led will beat hps for flowering but will beat cfl for sure as long as its a good led light.

here a pic right here to show their is know fluff i just took on my scale.

dont get me wrong a 400w hps can grow apound with one plant, ive seen it. and the same guy who dose it is testing 400w of led right now on another fourm to see if it can beat his 400w hps. but were talking how you said led wont grow good bud. and wont compaire to cfl's. not talking about hid.

Hey man.

looks good, keep up the good work and let me see that girl when she gets older, she looks real good for her age and being a sativa.

hydro grow led keept their word, even better they sent the money to me eirly, i made a deal that i will pay for the light and once i hit 4 weeks of flowering my money would be refunded in full to me. well today i got a call from hydro grow saying my money was already refunded to me and the light is mine for free, just light the deal but was better. since their were people saying that she was going to rip me off. sure inoff my money was in my bank account. that says alot to me when people keep their word like that. thanks hydro grow!! every thing she has said to me has been true so fare like foot print pentration, ect..

ps. i looked at the plants today and their looking great for being only 3 days old. and the pro source plants are doing alot better with the light raised up now they srating to take off. hydro girls plants are looking great also, they seem to love the light @ 6". ill post pics tomarrow and you guys can see for your selfs.

Thats good to hear Irish. I have also had good conversation and communication with HGL. Everybody should see that you do not have anything negative to say and this test is going to show us just whats up in this LED world.

Keep growing my friend. Thanks for the info. I hope everybody makes the right decision when it comes time. The results shall prevail!

Peace my friend, keep rockin'!

i just want to get into flowering
and see how each light dose? since last time i never got to veg and flower the whole time with the 180w. so i am very excited because it like i have to new lights to play with.lol. and i never realy used the 126w at all.

the ps clone are digging the 180w raised, since last night they started taking off and growing. they i was keeping the light at 10" with half power like i was told to but it was still over powering my clones, so i bumb it up a bit more and their taking off alot better then they were.

i have a question to all my 180w homies. how high did you hang your litghs to ur seedlings or baby clones?
