...crimble sounds like a salesman to me too, just sayin'
I wasnt worried about that when i bought mine because im not going to ever be using it for a veg longer than 30 days, i think i will stick with cfl for my mothers or maybe a new led with more blue spectrum havent done any research on it yet because i dont need it but im pretty sure i know where i need to go. As of right now im not veging under the led longer than 2 weeks so im golden the switch has already been flipped. I gave the mother to a friend who threw some clones in a fog ponics system and he said his little sour d super silver haze clones off the mother were rooted in 4 days. not fully rooted but you could see like eigth inch roots comin out lol. I got some strong ones and they're off and running. I hope to get out of the spot im in with this partner ship where i have to share a room, once i do that im moving on to water farm and scrog with just 2 plants under 2 240w panels i think maybe 2 500's if i have the cash to spend. I also may decide to pick up some kessil's its just time to play that waiting game and see how much i have to gross before i can get out of there.Yeah, I figured you must've robbed a bank the way you've been buying out the stores. So, you're going to send for some of the bulbs? You're going to be amazed.
BTW- LEDs are every bit as good for flowering as vegging. The new, quality ones anyway. One problem with the Blackstar I bought is it tends to throw plants into flowering early. Maybe it's just because it leans on that end of the spectrum?
So that's what your avatar means? Too much!
Learn to spell.I would NEVER buy anything off of E-bay or Amazon if you can't return it to the dealer for repairs or customer service or upgrades, don't trust them. Those panels look cheep, kinda only good for supplemental lighting at best imho, those panels are cheep, so you get what you pay for. People interested in LED lighting need to be aware that their are many companies out there making LED grow lights, most of those companies are using cheep production methods and giving the LED grow light revolution a bad rep. Go with a reputable company that has proven itself in the industry consistently for several years, thats GROWL www.ledgrowlight.com, look into their products, they make the best Growlights on the market.
A grow trunk huh?? clones on wheels could be a good buisness...word up, i'll be the sunshine systems sales man hehe. seriously though, i did just get a package in the mail with 3 of the glowpanel 45s, one for a friend, one for a christmas present for a caregiver that's shown me much love, and one for me, it will go into my veg area alongside one of the older glowpanel 45 models
if i were to have a great amount of cash to throw around, my money would be on kessil lighting
p.s. i am using my old crappy $40 ebay panel in a different area where 1 single male plant is hanging out, i figure with that panel along with the bathroom incandescent light and an old PURple 2' t8 it should be enough to keep him going till the plants i want to pollinate are done...my point here is that the cheapo ebay panel does have a use still
p.s.s. the cheapo ebay panel also has been used in a transport box i setup in my car, i had to move some clones to a caregiver and the plants were in the trunk for several hours, the cheapo ebay panel provided enough light so everything stayed happy in veg and we had zero stress issues with those, i had the panel running off of a camping battery backup in the trunk of the car
Yeah, Ben, I really wanted to try his lights, too. I like the double power supply and the resistance to power surges that are the Achilles heel of most LED designs.viagro- shame that guy still doesnt have adjustability in his panels or id have gotten them off him instead.
get the Haight solid state ppf 400 its 90 watts for 254.00 my website sells them u can pm me, it is perfect, the 90 can do 2 plants, 4 would be overkill and the 50 can do 0. lol.I am looking at purchasing the 90W UFO from HTG and saw that there are 50W panels at comparable prices. Does anyone have a recommendation? I have a very small grow with only 2- 4 plants at a time and am looking for the best application of LED lights.
I don't actually have a recommendation. Looking for any ideas on whether this is a good deal or not. Tell me what you think?I am looking at purchasing the 90W UFO from HTG and saw that there are 50W panels at comparable prices. Does anyone have a recommendation?

thjs is a good idea...ufo's are weak look at how much bigger this footprint is of this panel...get the Haight solid state ppf 400 its 90 watts for 254.00 my website sells them u can pm me, it is perfect, the 90 can do 2 plants, 4 would be overkill and the 50 can do 0. lol.
