envirolite??

[xNoa]

what do you all think of this light http://www.basementlighting.com/Merchant2/4.13/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=1&Product_Code=EL200X2
i havent planned my grow completely yet, but it will be done in a cabinet(if anyone can recommend one i can buy in the uk id appreciate that) and id want at least 3-4 plants.. just need to know if this light will be as effective as 400w hps or something

It will be fine but they are not in the same leage as HID lights. The do cost a lot less then HID to run and that is a plus but no where close to the lumens HID's put out.

i use that same setup. bin using it for about 4 wks.i have 525watts total in place of 4oow son-t....envirolites are so much cooler,my hood is 2 inch above my plants just waiting to see wot they finish my buds off like....

I got 2 blue 125w envirolites recently, just as cloning lights but ive added 1 to my budroom and 400 hps to brighten up that sickly yellow. They are realy cool but i find they are too big and bulky, specially hanging down with no reflector. i think the 200 watt ones are even bigger..

Hi have started a grow of Snow White with a 125watt blue envirolite switching to the red next week on 12/12, planning on keeping only 2 females.

I'm growing in BioBizz All-Mix useing Bio-grow , bio-bloom, topmax. and have "formulex nutrient solution" for the roots.

The light is about 2 inch above the plants.
I will take some pictures soon and update. while i sort that has any one have any idea on improving this or what i would yeild from this . Any help from the pros would be great. THX Keep smoking

thing is u need small plants like lowrider for those lights.. or like hang a few and round the sides etc.. i doubt ur gona produce much dense bud ;( even my 400 watt sodium isnt enough usually

[cyberbud]

u did ask if it would be as effective as a 400 watt. simply its a no... get a 400 watt sodium.. blow an 8-10" fan directly on it and if posss put an extractor on constant on ur closet out....... with a hole or 2 lower down on front or side to draw in air manually..

shame to see snow whites under envirolites i think. maybe in a SOG theyd be more efficiant....? seein as u chop the lower lot off.

[burdo]

Hi again. you said See of grean would be more efficient.
Could you tell me any way i could do this easily and what is involved, is there any more time spent on veg/flower etc.

Thanks guys :rasta:

they are meant to be mounted sideways, and a reflector is somethin every light should have :)

lighting wont really affect the time it takes to grow, but will affect how much bud you get

[cyberbud]

I think i know what is meant to be and what is not...... things dont always go to plan tho do they..... ;-) Most lights are meant to be hung sideways but sometimes hanging it down with no reflector is what you have to do when your plants are growing thru the roof.

lol

pic please

[mightymarijuanabuds]

LOL yea please

i never said that it couldn't be done that way... just that the standard by far is horizontally with a reflector of some type.... it really does not take up alot of head room to mount them sideways and since its an EVL plants can grow right into it... so if you're at the point where you literally NEED to put the EVL vertically to save that 6'' or 8'' of head space then, IMHO, you need a taller grow area, or need to start looking into LST or ScroG... just my :twocents:
