velx Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'm not sure but I just got this BESTVA 1000W Double Chips LED Grow Light Full Spectrum Grow Lamp for Greenhouse Hydroponic Indoor Plants Veg and Flower . I haven't used led's too much in the past. Always used hid lamps Mh/Hps with digital ballasts in the past. This Led lamp seems to have good reviews and it's dirt cheap. Wish I could help you more.

williams2311 Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I got a couple mars hydro I think they are like 138 watts each but I got a few to try to see if I like well they are ok imo. The fans blow alot of heat out of it. If I'm paying to cool my room it's going to be for hps yields Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Apollo Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Mars will work but your better off building a cob style led light Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Apollo Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Well after 3 cycles with the led cobs i built, i think right now hps is still the best option for bang for your buck.... mibrains 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hydraulic Jack Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 If you buy the right LED fixtures you won't go back to HPS....HJ Easy E and fishhead 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Apollo Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) I felt like i built a pretty good light with good components, light meter readings(cheap meter) show twice the intensity of the hps at similar distances but i cant keep them as close as my aircooled hps due to light bleaching and light stess. So to me it seems that my hps still wins imo. The led plants did have positive differences like slightly faster flowering,slightly better colors, tops were smaller but slightly more sparkle. Im not done experimenting with them yet but i wont replace the tried and true. Edited June 9, 2017 by Apollo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
