Just found this thread. Very nice documentation. I would like to see a side by side (your system vs. a 600W HPS) to see if the results are really comparable as the manufacturer claims.


Perhaps some time in the future.


I've played around with LEDs a while ago and came to the conclusion that, while red and blue work very well for vegging, you need more spectrum to flower.


I'll be watching this grow. Thanks for posting it.

 

led`s wouldnt stand a chance vs sulpher plasma.

 

well, i am going to be doing a side by side 'watt for watt' test with 2 LumiGrow ES up against a 600w HPS. max yield will be the factor. should be a really fun test. input would be much appreciated. seperate pots? same container? i will be purchasing a second unit very shortly, so i should have the test ready to go once this one is finished. as for plasma, i dont think i want a spinning ball of fire in my grow room, hehehe.

 

lol, where going from an extreme to the fucking extreme there!

 

all good cali, the new sulfur plasma lights do NOT have moving parts.


back in the 90`s yes but Not these new ones.

 

Sulpher plasma, worth a look.

I think ResinRubber is right. Take a look at this sight and navagate around to aggriculter. http://www.plasma-i.com/sulphur-plasma-light.htm


Edit: The LED is lookin like its puttin out a few buds, start'n to look tastey.

 

6 1/2 week update. my back went out when i was tending to my garden, so i have been out of comission for a bit. anyways...... these buds are hard as rocks. i cant wait till harvest time rolls around.

Looking good calibuddz! :thumbsup: They look pretty dense and frosty.

 

Heeeeey Cali!! Those bad lookin women seem to be gettin reeeeally stickie and stinkie. They must smell like heaven:thumbsup: .

 

7 1/2 week update. 3 more days, and then they get the axe. should be a week from then and i will have the dried weight results. id say the buds are medium size. what is also suprising is that my HPS buds arent too much bigger. could be because i only used 1/4 strength on my boosters. im gonna hit em hard next round. i still havent purchased my second unit for the next test, but will very shortly. enough chatter, here are some pics...

lets throw some HPS comparison shots. this is to compare bud structure, not a true test comparison. i recently harvested the tops, so the buds pictured are the clusters just below.

last batch of pics for this test (until its all dry). they get one more cold night and then, the axe. i cant wait till the harvested dry weight (trimmed) results are in. i will keep yall posted.


i brought the unit down to 6" for these last 2 days.
