Calling out to Weezard for LED advice
About the time WhiskeyTango started adding supplements to his Procyons I began wondering if I could close that 2-3 week gap in finishing that everyone seems to have noticed with LED's. I added 2 x 13 watt cfl's and/or 1 x 24 watt T5HO (nominal 2 footer) to sweeten the mix. I tried both 3K warm and 6500 cool at alternate times, in a not-very-scientific way. Improvement didn't seem worth the added heat, and strangely, I thought the 6500 degree provided slightly better (still minimally better) results. So I guess I've proved to myself I don't need to fuss with adding white LED's to my lamp.I am using a 120W CFL to supply any odd color that my girls may be "pining" for.
(Does it do any good?
Jury is still out on that. )
120 watts of CFL is another story; be interested to see the results of this experiment. What color temp are you using?
Well, I was just trying to blend in by looking like a 19-year-old male with a chip on his shoulder. Before I registered at CannCom I lurked around the other boards for awhile, and a vaguely suggestive username seemed to be the norm. After I settled in at CannCom and read some posts and stickies by Stinky and Rhizome, I realized this community was much different than the recreational doper sites. (This impression was reaffirmed in the recent weeks when CannCom was down, and I revisited some of those "other" sites.)I gotta ask, why "crunchypants"?
At that point, I thought about picking a different username, but thought maybe the mods would see a "wise-ass" change his name without a single post and assume I was just a troll. I didn't want to get banned before I even started, so I just left it.
I never really planned on posting much, because the site elders were effectively advising all the noobs without my help, and I could answer my own questions by simply reading what's already been posted. But then SnS took the plunge with their LED grow, and heavyweights like Knna, you, and others started weighing in. CannCom became the unofficial clearinghouse for LED grow info, even more so than the GPL site.
If I had to do again, I would observe the CannCom convention of whimsical, grow-related handles and be "Foley R. Feading" or "The Dreaded Hermie."
Guess I should probably change it; no sense coming off like an adolescent in an adult community.
