I design my own lighting (part of my job) and use it exclusively for all horticultural purposes.

Many others on this forum (Weezard, Stra8outtaweed) can hook you up with higher-power panels that will do the job much better and likely at a better price. My high power panels are not ready, yet.

Freshly-cut babies in the cloning spot, 24 in total, waiting for root set in about two weeks.

Little spidermite damage, but that Floramite I got from the hydro shop did the trick where the no-pest strip failed.

End of seven weeks! Buds in the back are looking great!

very nice tight sog. cant wait to see the end result off your leds

Wow that looks awesome! How much heat do they currently put out?

[khyberkitsune]

I can't wait to see the final results, as well.

As for heat, they put out nearly negligible amounts. There is some but it's not like a T5HO unit.

Meanwhile, in my secret LED/HPS combo garden...

+1 you can actually touch the glass while the light is on, crazy,.... BTW, you shouldn't do that.

Now THAT is what I'm talking about! :thumbsup:

Yeah, after my first (some what disappointing) run I'm leaning towards adding an HPS. Can you tell us more about the HPS you are running along side the LEDs? Wattage, bulb type, etc. Mine is a small garden - 8 plant scrog. I'm hoping that 400w will be sufficient together with 300w of LED and if I could drop it down to 250w that would be better - I have heat issues.

You could easily handle that kind of scrog with 8 plants using 300w LED and an added 400w HPS or MH. I'd go the MH route, personally.
