So I am one of those lurkers always around the forums reading countless hours of information without ever posting...well here I am I need help.
I currently have one room going, I'm on my third harvest and all is going fairly well. I am about to take the plunge into a second room in another location and just can't bring myself to decide if I want to stick with what I know (HPS for flowering and T5 for clones and veg) or jump into the new tech of LED lights. I know I know people are sick of talking about this and to be honest I'm sick of reading people arguing this so I'm in high hopes this thread doesn't turn out that way
Here is the deal, if I decide to stick with what I know I will have 2 600 watt HPS and 1 1000 watt HPS in the bloom room. In the clong/veg room I will stick with 2) 8 lamp 4x2 T5 lights...this is the exact setup I have in my current room and I really can't complain with its performance but I sure can complain about its electricity consumption so I might be willing to give LED's a try.
Lets here from some current LED growers and what they would suggest me buying to get this same setup in LED instead of HPS and which ones and where to buy them. I see the ones on ebay all day long and the UFO 90 watter for under $200 that claims 400 watts but that just doens't seem right...too good and too cheap to be true. I don't know a ton of imformation on LED's I only know what I have read and when spending hours upon hours of reading you start to forget which side of the fence sounded better so hopefully someone can give me some advice here, thanks for the help.
