I always thought they were best for veg and HP for flowering but what do i know lol... Ill update my pics later on or tomorrow for sure..
F*ck it - use them both... just kidding. Nothing wrong with a little experimentation. That's how we all ended up here, isn't it?

The major drawback to growing under high pressure sodium alone is that the plants tend to be taller and leggier with a longer internodal length than plants grown under metal halide.
I've grown with MH/HPS before and have had success. And I hear that you can grow just fine with either/or....it's still light!! hell, people bud plants under cfl's all the time. I'm in a new grow right now using all LED's....check out my thread...I'm still vegging, so soon it will be interesting! :jointsmile:
cheers to that! :thumbsup:Quote:

Hey 420 how do you like the LED's so far?? Dont know if you would know off the top of your head but if i wanted to try one out what LED would i need for an equivilant to my 1000w hp?? Thnks again :)
Check str8outtaweed's grows. He switched from 1000w HID to all LED:
Look at his albums. You'll find a class 1 setup there.

Few more.. Is anyone familiar with DJ Shorts True Blueberry?? I finally got mine in the mail but not going to start them up for a little while.. Thanks again guys!!
so far I'm loving the LED's....it's been great not worrying about temps all the time. And my babies seem to be loving the light. I have 2 kushes that I already had to trim down....they are growing so fast! Check out my thread "Moodys first LED grow"....Quote:
